If God wanted us to be vegans He wouldn't have made animals out of meat :)

Hi Emuse, I have been watching this debate and I have to say I'm very impressed with your whole approach and the dignity you bring to your interactions. I have not responded because it seems you will get drowned in a sea of Christian responses, and besides, there are some very capable and well thoug...

Teacher reads 2nd-graders story about 'gay' wedding

What really disgusts me here (apart from the obvious) is trying to deny parents rights to know what schools are teaching about sexual morality. Influencing children by stealth. What's done in the darkness, because it is afraid of the light. http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=49...

Yes, and some people believe they have been abducted by aliens.

Is there any scholarly basis for what you have written or is it all just wild opinion?

Hi Sugaaaa, I looked at the lyrics to those songs and to be fair, I couldn't see any link to Jesus and sex. I think it's just one of the many urban myths about the group. I downloaded 10000 days for a listen and I think it is a ground breaking album. Hasn't been well received by some of the fans who...

An incredible band. Stuff like this is problematic though: Musically, "Undertow" is kind of like Tool's third album, 1996's "Aenima," but it's more subtle because this album's guitar riffs don't roar or explode as much. Lyrically, subjects such as sex, loss of innocence, and (of ...

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by that. Mindset of Arabs regarding what, democracy? I can assure you an ordinary Arab citizen would love nothing more than to live in peace and be able to practice his or her religion freely. What does go unnoticed is the multitude of good the war in Iraq has gen...

Iggy, Thanks for your measured response on a subject that is obviously very near to your heart. It does you credit. We will probably never agree. I just think the West should stop tinkering in the Middle East in the way it does. I lived there and found it very difficult to comprehend the mindset of ...

I know Blacknad, I know. Funny how such a guy can also manage to deceive so many people, including the whole UN Security Councial and NATO's general command. Hey, I know this is a passionate debate, but I sure hope that we can agree that all of this is inconsequential when it comes to our shared fa...

Having read the link. I have a problem with anything that starts calling into question the salvation of anyone doing something that the writers disagree with. Leviticus 19:28 is the Christian (or so-called Christian?) tattooist and tattoo-bearer's worst nightmare. As usual Christians think they have...

If you cannot give facts, revert to insults. Typical.
August, I wasn't referring to you. I was referring to the strange situation where a man who cannot speak properly manages to become the leader of the free world.

Re: Not Socialism

Blacknad, while agreeing with some of your definition of the problem, I think that some of your comments regarding the US government and US christians in general border on the outrageous. I understand that in different countries views of the US are very strongly negative. Some of those reasons are ...
