Well thank you Mrs. JB! I’m not always as considered and measured as I’d like to be, but I try. And I don’t think I’ve ever been called a...
Don’t mean to butt in but I felt compelled to respond to this. No. For a more detailed answer you’ll have to state why you think they are....
Thanks! (It is possible for us to be brief too. ;) )
I’m going to defend Macbeth’s long windedness. It seems to be a tendency of us Canadians on this board going back to the days of...
That’s a tough argument to make to someone who’s not a Christian, though. The message of compassion, love and forgiveness is more compelling,...
I think that’s the first time I’ve seen DC Talk quoted on this site. The question of truth. No, this won’t be a McBethian essay, just a few...
Congrats! You won’t need the lights tonight anyway.
Déjà vu. When I lived in Ottawa about 15 years ago this happened in one of the historic, but relatively upscale hotels there. This is the only...
If you mean that Paul’s teaching have been used by many churches, including many Protestant churches, in incorrect and even abusive ways, then I...

Wow! Well said! It’s about grace, not works. God is all about love. From a state of love the works flow, but they are a consequence, not the...
Sure, it’s a theory. It’s logical … to an extent. The problem with this line of reasoning for me was that breaks down when you pursue it in...
I’m in for this. (So much else to respsond to too … *whimper* …;)) Should we do it here or in another thread? I’m about the farthest thing from...
I’ll take this one. It doesn’t change over time. Well, I suppose in some ways it does, just as Islam did. Before Mohamed came there was no...
GP: I think this would take a lot of work for us to really get into. You position is that a moral code is leaned at a very young age, even...
Hey Max! I’ve been taking a break. Stepped away from it for a while. How are things? There seem to be a few new faces around. I don’t...
Hmm… You’ve made a line of questioning I was going to follow difficult by saying that the moral code is learned as a young child. That makes it...
