Re: They call it a NEV -- a Neighborhood Electric Vehicle

A Polish man was riding a bicycle with his son in Sweden and got shot to death. His young son had to call the police. Many people will choose to drive cars instead for safety if they have to fear being shot or stabbed if they try to bike or walk. https://images.app.goo.gl/LHbnpv3tTDhoogp6A The numb...

Re: Sattler College Turmoil

Better read the fine print really well. I have never heard of an absolute unconditional guarantee. I don’t think any reasonable institution would promise that, when there is always a possibility that a student will go off the rails. I suspect there is an out that someone is simply ignoring. Making ...

Re: Sattler College Turmoil

Also, I’m impressed Bryant survived 4 years of Sattler without being a “member” anywhere. Do you have a source for this assertion? Edit: Inconveniently, this particular Sattler graduate has never actually been a member of a Mennonite church, but I see no need to let that stop us from crediting all ...

Re: Iran - Israel War? Iran's state-run news agency says Iran has fired ballistic missiles at targets inside Israel

Has Israel offered any reason for this provocation? My neighbour sometimes has a dispute with me about the property line. He thinks it’s a few feet over, in the middle of a patch of Japanese knotweed infestation I’m trying to get rid of. This is the equivalent of me responding by bombing his son’s ...

Re: Preparation for Baptism

I find it interesting when people making arguments for “we must do this thing because it was done this way in Acts” conveniently skip over Acts 2 & 4’s description of a common purse.

Re: They call it a NEV -- a Neighborhood Electric Vehicle

I kind of don't see the point. That little car is not allowed on the golf course. 8-) Unfortunately for whatever reason (economics? regulation? we don't seem to be getting such vehicles here in the US). Right. And so we use golf carts to fill this gap. The alternative in most cities, is not slow an...

Re: Australia: Assyrian Orthodox Bishop stabbed while saying Mass

Just remember they have strict gun control, and lots of people think America should be following this example.

Re: Sattler College Turmoil

I think what some of us are asserting is that Sattler is equivalent in quality to a directional state university, or perhaps a regional campus of Directional State. Also, I’m impressed Bryant survived 4 years of Sattler without being a “member” anywhere. Of course, the denomination that runs Sattler...

Re: Iran - Israel War? Iran's state-run news agency says Iran has fired ballistic missiles at targets inside Israel

An organization affiliated with the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran revealed that Iranian General Mohammad Reza Zahedi, who was reportedly killed by an Israeli airstrike on April 1, played a key role in the mass murder of 1,200 people, including over 30 Americans, on October 7.
