Re: The Anabaptist perception towards U.S. Holidays!
The only holidays I could say I really enjoy are Thanksgiving and Christmas. I was stumped for a third. I selected Valentine's Day just because it is kind of fun to buy my wife something.

Re: "God Bless the USA" Bibles - from our Huckster in Chief
Bibles similar to this have been for sale for years. The Patriot's Bible, for example - I noticed that our local Ollie's is flooded with highly discounted copies.

Re: Catholic to Anabaptist
I'm not sure how much we can compare the 16th century Catholicism which the reformers critiqued to the current Catholic church. Before the Reformation Catholics did not think of themselves as Catholic, rather as Christians. Since they have had to define Catholic identify against other western tradi...

Re: Catholic to Anabaptist
We have good friends who made the journey from Catholic to Evangelical to Anabaptist. They grew up in a strongly Catholic area and family culture, including the large family ethos. I think that the Catholic priest scandal-ridden era (locally and nationally) had a strong impact on their seeking other...

Re: Spring 2024: Tell us about your church!
We have everything except ushers seating people. Some have self-assigned seats; the rest just sort of fill in the empty spaces. If a visitor looks confused, someone will be there to help, not necessarily someone whose job description says they should. We recently began having ushers seat people. Ou...

Re: recommendations for cars/suv
If I had to buy a mid-sized truck today, it would be the Tacoma. Several coworkers have them and love them. My one boss has the full size Tundra and is very happy with it. I have a customer with three Toyota vehicles. He has a Civic with 600,000 miles on it. One of the others is a Tundra with (I ca...

Re: Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapse
These sorts of events are always interesting to me in that they show how FAST we can actually get things done in this country when we actually want to. Yes. Take for example the I-95 bridge collapse in Philly last year, which was replaced in TWELVE DAYS. Cut the red tape and it is marvelous what ca...

Re: recommendations for cars/suv
When it comes to something decent for a low price, I think something like a Chevy Cruze works well. My son is an auto body tech and collects random parts and parts cars for a certain model year range, and has restored a number of wrecked Cruzes often with mostly parts he has on hand. Parts are reaso...

Re: recommendations for cars/suv
Just about can't go wrong with a Honda or Toyota. Accord or Camry. Rav4 if you prefer a smaller SUV. That's what I'd recommend to somebody looking for reliability. My parents' Rav4 is just about bulletproof and they've had it for years. We have run both older and newer Accords and Camrys in my famil...

Re: Chemtrails May Be Banned in Tennessee
John, what is the connection between geo engineering and the photos you posted. Some of these pictures may be genuine. If you can find one that you "think" is not, it doesn't negate the others. No, but when you present a case in court, and some of your evidence is proven false, it makes i...
