Re: Churches, Dealerships, and Franchises
True. I am just saying that to have a range of acceptable practices in a church, you need to have a church full of mature, principled people who don't love the world, nor the things of the world.

Re: Neither leisured foreigner ...
When I was learning to read, I learned the phrases "Neither foreign sovereign seized counterfeit forfeitted leisure" and "Either weird heifer [is] protein".

Re: Churches, Dealerships, and Franchises
In my mental hypothesis, those who grew up in Plain Anabaptist church would be expected to keep being Plain, and those who grew up in Evangelical churches and other not as disciplined backgrounds would be encouraged/expected to head in the direction of adding more disciplines to their lives, not le...

Re: Russia Invades Ukraine 2022
One of the themes in this thread is that it's the Ukrainians' fault that Russia invaded them them and that they should allow Russia to do whatever it wants since they are the most powerful country. In other words, might makes right -- Russia is right because they are more powerful than Ukraine and ...

Re: The scent of desperation?
I would like this, as I’d prefer wealthy vultures stop descending on red states and driving up property prices, voting in Democrats, and generally making the places they move to as bad as from where they came.MaxPC wrote: ↑Wed Apr 24, 2024 8:25 am Thinking of moving?

Re: Russia Invades Ukraine 2022
We, and the rest of the world, would all be "better off" to let Russia have all of the Ukraine, if it would save the lives of these people fighting in this stupid war. I don't think the rest of the world would be "better off" if Russia could take all of Ukraine. I don't think st...

Re: Churches, Dealerships, and Franchises
I also don’t see it working to try to compose a church / school of people with wildly varying practices. It seems such a congregation lacks unity at a fundamental level. I don't know what you mean by wildly varying, but as I said earlier, there needs to be parameters of course. I'd rather be in a c...
