Re: Political office

But we should. The right thing to do would be to not deliver pornography to people's mailboxes. I am very disturbed by this point of view that it's OK to do immoral things as long as an employer is telling you to do it. So I assume you could not work as a postal carrier. And presumably not as a UPS...

Re: God Bless the USA" Bibles

My favorite part is at 2:35: "I'm gonna rare back and tell you something...."

Good to hear a Church of God pastor saying this.

Re: War in Gaza

You think they are just going to pack up and move north because some Palestinian mothers ask them to? I think there could have been more separation between the militants and non-militants. If the militants deliberately defy the separation and infiltrate the non-militants (which has been their strat...

Re: Sattler College Turmoil

It is perfectly feasible to borrow $4,000 per year to pay for college and earn another $5,000 per year working part time and during the summers and wind up with a fully paid for nursing degree and $8,000 worth of student loans. That's a creative interpretation of "fully paid for." :) The ...

Re: Political office

One of the early Anabaptist leaders was a civil engineer in the employ of the city in charge of water and drainage systems, if I recall correctly. For me the issue would lie with the association of coersive force. There might be some offices I could theoretically occupy, but it's easy to imagine co...
