Re: Things that hinder a clear Christian testimony...

Meanness, and perceived meanness. If there is one thing that is off putting for me it is when folks just aren't nice/kind. Interestingly growing up in the world I was taught that screaming an answer of reply in someone's face was not nearly as rude as not saying anything at all. And some profession...

Re: Torture in Afghan Prisons

I'm hesitant to believe any news anymore. Talking to people at ground level personally is much more reliable. One of my ex-military friends (England) said he was never really near the front lines of war but was set way back in delivering goods only. He told me that had strict orders for routes to ta...

Typically the more conservative the group the more the group does things together as a body. It really is that simple, or should be.

Re: Scientific Communities and Christian Forums

And yes, I can "smell" a homeschooled person a mile away as well. Can you guys expand on this? I'm interested, because we have homeschooled for 13 years. What is it about us that stinks, exactly? :) We homeschool too. And so hopefully it isn't everybody but generally homeschoolers have a ...

Re: Coronavirus Outbreak

It's really simple. I've seen it here. As more people become vaccinated - less and less of those people get tested when they are sick. The stats tell us nothing about the actual number of infections. And as you believe this stuff it automatically makes people think the vaccine is working, when it i...

Re: Coronavirus Outbreak

Note that vaccinated people have a different test that's less sensitive than unvaccinated people... and vaccinated people are told not to get tested unless they have a lot of symptoms. Whereas unvaccinated people are told to get tests even if they're asymptomatic. The goal posts are constantly movi...

Re: Coronavirus Outbreak

No, there is a virtual blackout on any research into alternative therapies that don’t make big pharma lots of money. Wealthy global elites started this website today: https://nolicensefordisinformation.org/ They are campaigning to try to get doctors kicked out of their jobs if they don’t repeat the...

Re: Poll: Masks and Face Shields

Exactly what kind of person insists on wearing a mask in a restaurant? To wear it from walking from the door to the table, where they then take it off? I don't insist on it, but it was required of us. As of today, I guess eating out at most dine-in facilities is out of the question. I thought it wa...
