Re: Church Government Models

In your list do episcopal and presbyterian both fall under representative democracy. I'm not familiar with how they work. Episcopal is rule by a body of bishops.

Re: Should negligent parents be punished by the law?

One of the worst acts of negligence any parent can do is decide to have a child out of wedlock; it has been proven over and over how much worse the outcomes are.

How do citizens of the Kingdom of Heaven go about getting the kingdoms of the world to stop developing and using nuclear and other bombs against other kingdoms of the world?

Re: Mennonite Girl ,3, swept over waterfalls,2 years ago,parents now charged

When you lose a family member in tragic or violent ways, and you get to read false salacious (correctly used :) ) details in the paper, it changes the way you read things in the news. I understand the purpose of this thread, but I hope the family doesn't ever read it. I agree that this thread topic...
