Has anyone heard of Chromebooks being used as a viable method of filtering/monitoring Internet usage amongst groups of users? I would not consider them ideal for this. Although you could set up a proxy server under their flavor of Linux to do just that, just about any desktop would be better, even ...

I'm wondering what parishes have "membership".. my roommate is becoming Catholic as is an old coworker. They are working towards being confirmed (is that the right term?) and then would be allowed to take the Eucharist (although one already takes it and apparently his priest doesn't care)...

i don't understand the focus on max. and i don't understand the need for onlookers to defend max max is a big boy. he can defend himself. getting others involved just leads to more drama. which wasn't necessary in this thread. max started a topic of conversation that included a question on how thin...

When I first joined MennoDiscuss, it seemed weird that it was a Mennonite forum that was dominated by people that were not even part of a Mennonite church. Not that MN is any different; excluding hermits with inflated post counts, the top six, responsible for just over half of the posts, are (to th...

Make no mistakes. Trump is no dummie. He may not be fluent in speech, but he has manipulated the media for years. He knows how to work people to get what he wants. In comparison, he has only manipulated the religious right for months. He may still have a few things to learn about that, but seems to...

I wish we could have a poll similar to this for every new member to answer. But maybe if each of us could participate in this survey, we'd have a better idea of who we really are talking to. Maybe we aren't even a Mennonite forum. Or maybe there are only a few conservative Mennonites and we should ...

Request: Until Friday, I would like responses only from Conservative Anabaptists and moderators. I will not respond until Friday either to make room for them to respond. I think most of us on MennoNet really appreciate the Conservative Anabaptists and are glad they are here. But sometimes I get the...
