Re: Benjamin Unruh

The US intelligence apparatus had to know about this guy. Why did they not warn MCC, even through back channels, not to associate with this person? US intelligence efforts were much less extensive before WW2 than afterward, so it wouldn't surprise me if Unruh was entirely unknown to the US governme...

Re: Bible Reading

Now for the part that I think I know but am not quite certain about. I think the full cycle for R&S Youth and Adult is actually a 21 year cycle - three seven-year cycles through the entire Bible but the focus is somewhat different in each of those three cycles. Also, I think that R&S normal...

Re: Help Wanted?!

Warehouse entry level jobs are everywhere. Warehousing and distribution is a major industry in my area. From what I've heard, it's high-pressure, physically demanding work, and turnover is high. The warehouses will hire anybody with a pulse, and the pay is decent for an entry-level job, but it seem...

Re: Robert Martz by his wife Sherry

What sad news, especially in what was already a time of grief for the Martz family. May God's grace and peace be with them.

Re: More on Liberty Ridge

This would seem to call into question the operating procedures of all Anabaptist VS programs who have been operating for scores of years (as well as many other denominations VS programs) I also wondered about that. A significant factor in this case seems to be that, according to the plaintiff in th...

Re: The theology of secretary Hegseth

Frankly, this is another of the more ludicrous threads. Pete’s religious views are impacting Anabaptist thought or our lives (outside the context of countless government dudes that impact us beyond our control or internet every day) Did you mean to say "are *not* impacting Anabaptist thought o...

Re: The theology of secretary Hegseth

"The Battle Hymn of the Republic" is a great work of art, and all the more deceptive for it. I've been fascinated and horrified by it ever since I realized what it's really saying.

Re: The theology of secretary Hegseth

From what I’m reading here the Anabaptists already know how to apply it to personal daily life and they also know that political leadership doesn’t sync with that theology on any issue . Starting a thread and titling it toward a specific individual and how he doesn’t believe in that Anabaptist theo...

Re: Refugees - have they been a problem?

I have also said that I eat someone light for breakfast instead of something light for breakfast. I was once asked, "¿Cómo se llama?" ("What is your name?") and misheard it as "¿Cómo se años?" (internally translating this as, "How many years old are you?"). S...
