The Supreme Court and the Internet
“Fact is” internet and media interference is a major topic, and has been for a few years, there are several MN threads on it, Congress and the White House are wrangling with it.

Re: Election Interference
Some of these claims are easy to sort out without a lot of research: simply try things two ways, compare results. When searching for “Republican presidential campaign websites,” Google returned Democrat Mariane Williamson, but not former President Donald Trump, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, former ...

Re: Election Interference
Oh, so this outfit run by Brent Bozell. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media_Research_Center They are even less credible than Fox News. Bozell was the chairman of the National Conservative Political Action Committee. The Media Research Center also seems to be a political lobbying group, like the one...

Re: Election Interference
Let's try one claim at a time, in individual posts. "Election interference" - I don't see anything in the last few articles that involve election interference by Google or by Democrats. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Election_interference Election interference generally refers to efforts to...
Re: Agreement
Like when one person quotes a study they found on the web and another person says "you're wrong" and posts another study found on the web. And before we know it, they're not even discussing the thread topic anymore. At work, when we look at a study, we're on the same side, with different ...
Re: Agreement
This was the OP. The thread has turned into a "what I find annoying about certain other people" thread. Like many other threads. Proving Soloist's point. So far, most people are pretty sure they know what other people should do to change that, and they are sure that other people are the pr...
Re: Agreement
Fowler and Westerhoff also touch on this in the Stages of Faith. One stage is affiliated faith. We build and support our beliefs by those around us. If someone challenges it(says something to the contrary), we must push that person out since they do not fit in our view of faith(which is greatly bui...

Re: Why aren't Mennonites Constantinian?
8. The result was a unification of church and state—a move that would be the catalyst to the egregious abuses that took place over the next 1,500 years during what has come to be known as the Dark Ages.

Re: Why aren't Mennonites Constantinian?
https://www.churchhistory101.com/feedback/constantine-against-donatists.php I think I agree with the conclusion of that article: I never said that Constantine did not use force. But the force was to tell his governor in N.Africa (Numidia, I think) to quell any violence. N.Africa had a history of vi...
