  • You are in my Prayers

    I read your article, ''What I've learned from debating religious people around the world'' with fascination. To provide you with some insight I am what is commonly called an evangelical Christian, but could not be accurately labeled as a full Calvinist. I try my best to communicate in a manner that saves others from perdition and I likewise strive ...

  • Supreme Court Justice Sotomayor -- Says Roe Is "Settled Law"

    All I need to know about today's U.S. Senate Nomination Hearing for Liberal New York City Feminist Sotomayor, is that she thinks the appalling pro-Abort ''Roe vs. Wade'' Supreme Court ''Decision'' of 1973, is ''Settled Law'' (her words.) Hispanic voters may be trending towards the Democratic Party side of the political ledger lately, and who ...

  • Fantastic article!

    Someone tell me why those in the USA who try so hard to get the 10 commandments posted all over in our public square and taught to our kids in school break so many of them trying to get that done? And also fight so hard to take money from the poor and middle class and put in the hands of the rich? And also to keep corporate greed-based health ...

  • Lieing Hypocrites

    What an article. Talk about no research. Did the author just call up the JW PR department and copy down everything they told him? Yes, the Watchtower Society promoted the fact that the poor Witnesses in the African country of Malawi were being persecuted because they were told by the Watchtower not to buy a political I.D. card. If they did the ...

  • Commentary on the commentary!

    Hello boys, Thanks for the entertaining, verbal ping-pong match on the book The Year of Living Biblically by Mr. A.J. Jacobs. Mr. Jacobs: You have written a hilariously funny book on a profoundly-important topic. As a born-again, spirit-filled, charismatic Catholic whose little brother is a Lubavitch Jew, I have a few opinions of my own ...

  • Mike's Buyers Guide to God - Part III

    Hard Copy Whatever it is you want in a God, you probably want it in writing. In the form of stone tablets, sheets or scrolls of papyrus, illuminated vellum manuscripts, gold plates or cheap paperbacks, most religions can provide you with their histories and beliefs, their do's and don'ts. If this were a buyers guide to cars or ...

  • Mike's Buyers Guide to God - Part II

    Unless you follow St. Augustine of Hippo or John Calvin, who, by the way, never even made Saint, let alone Patron Saint of Brewers as Augustine did, you have something called free will and, yes, that's an enormous burden as well as an empowering freedom. And, for God's sake, if you're firmly in that predestination camp, pass this on at once to ...

  • Mike's Buyers Guide to God - Part I

    Find the religion that's right for you by answering these two questions: What do I want from God? and What does God want from me? Whether you're a first time shopper or just no longer satisfied with your current spiritual affiliation, you need help. If you were looking for a new house or car your local bookstore's shelves would be ...

  • Blogging the Bible

    I think this is a great idea. There's lots of information there people really ought to know. So, if they don't pick up their Bibles, maybe they will at least pick up up your blog -- and learn along with you!!!! (It took me a long time to start studying it too, but I'm glad I did. I've learned some VERY interesting things which have changed my ...

  • Re: Does Jesus Condone Capital Punishment?

    ANSWER: In the context of the American penal system and American capitalist society: NO!!!!!!! Immorality and crime are tied to many things, including family upbringing, socialization, economic condition, political status, and more. Jesus (upon whom be peace and God's blessings) would likely reject the way America functions, period. And ...
