Re: Credible News Sources: The Russian Hacking Story
WaPo and NYTimes as late as Friday and Saturday were still admitting that the FBI didn't have any evidence showing that the RNC was actually hacked. WaPo has an interesting article today that basically says both RNC and DNC were targeted, we know the DNC was breached because material from their sys...

Re: Credible News Sources: The Russian Hacking Story
The Blaze article doesn't engage the facts presented at all, but depicts a conversation between (1) a television host who was not involved in gathering the evidence, and (2) the head of the Republican National Committee, who directly contradicts facts that are a matter of public record , as you can...

Re: Last Words...
Reminds me of Jesus' words in Matthew 25:31-46 and Revelation 20:12, which speak of judgement according to works. It's a concept we tend to shy away from.

Re: Church leadership: term limits
Do you think that the lists of qualifications for an elder (and deacon) indicate that there are different standards for an elder than for other members of a church? I think so. But that doesn't necessarily mean that it's OK for the other members to, for instance, have multiple wives, get drunk, hav...

Re: Pilgrims and Politics, by Michael Martin
Who's the publisher? It's self published under the name Arundel Press, which appears to be Michael S. Martin's trade name. Typesetting and printing is by Silverline Publishing in Lititz, PA. One of the things I appreciate about this book is the tone of respect for government that is maintained. The...

Re: On the Outside ..
Those with personal+immediate interest in joining are often led away from the internet right away. (There's a thread for that.) For this reason, i see no real change on the horizon - for a "majority" CM presence. Which thread are you referring to, Temp? The idea of Conservative Anabaptist...

Re: Who "owns" the Conservative Anabaptists?
It does feel at times like some of the "outsiders" looking in have more certainty than we ourselves about what makes a Conservative Anabaptist tick, and about what CAs believe and why they believe that way. My emotional response to such comments varies. Sometimes I'm amused, sometimes anno...

Re: Pilgrims and Politics, by Michael Martin
An excellent read. It's been awhile since I've read it, but as I remember Mr. Martin makes a very compelling case that involvement in political activity is incompatible with biblical Christianity. I believe you would enjoy it, Bootstrap.
