[Pagans in prison are to be allowed religious paraphernalia]

Conservative MP Andrew Turner, who uncovered the new ruling, added: "This strikes me as bizarre. A lot of people would be worried about equating paganism with Christianity."

Quote# 39190

With the abortion issue, would you see more results by protesting in a march, or by doing Spiritual Warfare? Many people are "praying" for God to intervene. God told US to intervene!

When is the last time you prayed something like this, - "Father, in JESUS' name I bind up all the demons involved in any abortion issue. I send the judgment of God upon anyone involved in abortions, from the nurse, to the doctor, to the judges, to the politicians, to the person protesting and supporting abortion, and anyone else involved in the murdering of babies (or old people)."

These are not the kind of people God wants us to "bless", as mentioned in the article "Blessings and curses". You pray as you see fit. It is God's business how He takes care of it.

Most of the people involved are non-Believers anyhow. The issue is not WOMAN'S CHOICE! The issue is to MURDER or not. Some so called "Christians" are FOR abortion. The SIXTH COMMANDMENT SAYS "THOU SHALL NOT MURDER" Most people have been taught that the word is "KILL", but "MURDER" is correct.

Just like God does sovereign miracles here and there, I am sure that some babies and mothers have been saved from abortion through some protesting. Try some Spiritual Warfare and see God move!

A man's point of view...

I can not speak for all, but a lot of men I know feel- pardon this expression- "castrated" in todays world. Even scientific studies show fish and men in the UK feminizing under the pollution of estrogenic compounds in the water supplies from the breakdown of wastes including primarily birth control (excreted in urine), pesticides, and soybean use (both estrogenic). Radical feminism, which is harmful to women, has been very effective at reducing the "manliness" of men as well. How often do we see men being portrayed in positive light anymore? On TV, the dad is always a buffoon kept alive by the wise wife. We have a total and systematic- even deliberate- breakdown of the family structure.

I was always high level intelligence- promoted to skip grades twice, full scholarship to university, etc. What did it get me? A wife who earns more than me and has an easier time finding work. She's a real looker, yes, but she was never all that great in school and only finished high school. I don't resent her, but I can't help resent the society we live in. Men have become soft, lazy, ineffective, and absent. The decline in manhood is natural based on the progression of sin permeating every aspect of our lives in a cause and effect sort of way. Look around- the 'metrosexual' or metro male is the image du jour. The manly guy who can use his hands, fix things, build things, etc. is marginalized. Pansy-boys are celebrated.

Ugh! I think I am ranting off the rails. The men of Biblical order are long gone as far as being in vogue. I struggle so often to be effective and feel so paralyzed to do much about it. It is hard to be a man, much less a man of God these days.

I think this is probably the best forum for this because it falls under "societal morality." If the mods disagree, feel free to move it.

I heard this on the radio this morning and have unfortunately not yet been able to find any kind of link to a related story. Our local talk radio station does a 60 second Donald Trump blurb every morning about "success in life" or some such...I've only caught it once or twice, so I'm not really sure. Anyway, this morning he quoted some article by a dating/relationship "expert" that talked about the 10 biggest warning signs that women should watch for when dating and looking for a potential husband.

Now many of them made sense...things like:

* If he's rude to the server at dinner
* If he refuses to pay for the date
* If he's significantly younger than you
* etc


But number 10 just floored me...they said that if the man you are dating refuses to have sex with you until after the wedding, get out of the relationship now because that is usually a big sign that there is something wrong with him!! I'll keep looking for a link...

(Post #55)

Darwinists rue the day I engage and pose common sense and scientific questions, so there’s not much chance of combat here. I am merciless, apply pure logic and am not PC when it comes to scientific interrogation. No brag, just fact. (hattip to “Will Sonnet”)

I used to have faith in Darwinism, but then I questioned it. It just didn’t hold up and requires unbelievable suspension of disbelief. It’s not intellectually sustainable and , in fact, fails right outta the starting gate.

As SHoward noted, it shouldn’t be dissected because of one’s religion, but because of it’s very bad “science”. (Though, to be sure, no one who claims to be a genuine, small “o” orthodox Christian can also claim to believe in Darwinism, unless that person is confused about the faith.)

To coin a new phrase” “Facts are stubborn things”. (ain’t they?)

Richard Nixon, the US President sent hundreds of thousands of his people to their deaths in Vietnam, and for that you'd expect that he'd go to Hell.

Well you're wrong. Through prophecy we have received a message from him in Heaven, and the only reason he got there was because as a very young child, he accepted Jesus and believed in Him.

HAHAHAHAAAAAAHAHAHAHAAAAAA

News flash: you do not have to believe in evolution to be President.

Evolution is only a recent “theory” perpetrated on people with no will to believe there is something larger than them that should govern them.

Guess who said: If man were present on earth 3 million years, we should be able to walk outside our back door and step on fossil bones.

[The dinosaur-killing Chicxulub meteor might have ignited an oilfield rather than forests when it slammed into the Gulf of Mexico 65 million years ago, say geologists.

Smoke-related particles found in sediments formed at the time of the impact are strikingly similar to those created by modern high-temperature coal and oil burning, as opposed to forest fires...]

I'm not going to push this, since I'm sure I'm over-reaching, but ...

When they find material which is often taken as evidence of human activities, and when that evidence seems to be from 65 million years ago, does that suggest in anyway that the dating methods may be off?

One of the classic retorts against Creationism or ID is "If we find homo sapiens in a coal bed, maybe we'll rethink the dating, but that has never happened."

Well ...

"And there is no distinction between micro- and macro-evolution." Wow you should tell dawkins he sure thinks that there is. So does every other scientist I have read or talked with. The answer for origin doesn't erase the need for science in any area.
"Fish with legs? Tektaalik. Whale-like mammals showing various transitions" You start naming animals that you think you can prove Macro evoultion and I will show you how ignorant you are.

Let's forget for a moment the obvious fact that apes can no more breed human descendants than humans can breed zebras as descendants. All anyone has to understand is the simple birds and bees to know why. But for those who don't, let's engage in fantasy and see what had to have happened for this impossible, crazy theory to have taken place;

1) Each ape had to find another creature which with to breed to create offspring that looks more like a human than an ape. The odds of that are incalculable.
2) Then these exact same offspring had to migrate all over the world because according to science fiction writers, homo-sapiens also existed in North America
3) The next step in this impossible chain is that each homo sapiens in North America had to find a mate identical to the mates of other homo-sapiens in Africa to breed descendants who could speak! That make the odds even more incalculable since no two animals and humans look and act alike. So the exact same so-called "mutations" had to have happened in thousands of homosapiens which makes the odds unfathomable as to be impossible.
4) There are no accounts by any ancient cultures of any of these creatures ever existing yet they are supposed to be our ancestors.
5) The so-called common ancestor from which these creatures supposedly came is still as imaginary as the minds who invented them. That makes the common ancestor as imaginary as the Flying spaghetti monster.

[POE][Quoted on the God Hates Goths webpage]

"The greatest threat to today's society is the rise of the gothic subculture. Goth is a sinister and violent subculture obsessed with Satanism, Wicca, Vampirism, BDSM, rape, child abuse, Hitler, bondage, sick sexual perversions, serial killers, death, drugs, self mutilation and other sick practices to vile to mention. Goth's are the Devil's Children. In my opinion, Goths are more dangerous to children than pedophiles"
