Believe it when I see it - lol. .

My mistake—this must be one of those special "topic-only" threads. .

You better believe it is .

Trump/Biden and "OSAS"—we should have an all-star showdown of topics - lol. On second thought, "OSAS" is probably NOT a close 2nd. .

I'm afraid I wouldn't have any idea how to treat someone as saved or damned. I hear this kind of thing all the time and I just don't get it. If someone leans too heavily on me about any point of doctrine, I figure I'm free to log off or put them on -ignore-, so I just have no idea what all the...

Please define "look down to." From what, exactly, are you defending people—imaginary assaults in voluntary forum discussion? What's your attitude regarding Christians who don't observe the rituals of baptism or communion, or are you of a mind that Christians needn't do anything at all to...

Yeah .

Why do they have to be white? .

Of course you're right. We should have to give account for discussing a sufficient variety of topics. Kind of like an Affirmative Action discussion policy. Diversity is okay as long as certain people don't get to decide what "diversity" means. By the way, who's going to be in charge of...

But the "happiness" is fleeting—it's just a dopamine fix for most, unfortunately. :( .

It's a peculiar thing, but I distinctly remember practically every bit of enjoyment I got out of McD's, but I'd also much rather have a huge chunk of fresh pineapple. Eat nothing but fruits, nuts, vegetables, and grains for a 10 days and your appetite will change. :) .

No, I don't think you do. Because I don't have a problem with your post. I was just making a few observations about it and the thread, in general, which you seem to have taken as a personal attack. That's obviously regrettable. I didn't word your remarks differently. I used the same words from...

I have to say, this is truly bizarre reasoning. You're definitely barking up the wrong tree. .

People are entitled to their naive and indefensible opinions? If it's just an opinion and they're entitled to it, why does it need to be defensible? And "indefensible at the very least?" Is naivete vastly ("very") worse than something that is indefensible? This thread just seems to be...

Which is pretty much the point of the article from The Hill, and has not escaped my attention. But you're omitting some of the information, which is to be expected, I suppose. Evidently, 80% of the Bar consists of something called "Demonrats," so it probably doesn't matter how much you read...

@Wrangler To be clear, while the president does have the ability to effect the declassification of certain documents, he does not not have the arbitrary privilege to do so unilaterally. https://www.americanbar.org/news/abanews/aba-news-archives/2022/10/fact-check-presidential-authority/ .

"Source?" Forgive me, but I don't think your statement is very representative of the article's intent and purpose, which seems to be clear enough from the first paragraph. And even the article itself makes some unsubstantiated claims. Political power and national security have always had a...

I don't think so. .

Sorry, but I have no interest in being led around by the nose to help expose whatever hobby horse subordinate to anti-ecumenism you're riding this week/month. However, as long as you've now quite characteristically steered us off-topic, you could make an effort to expose the nullification and...

It is actually "milk" to some faith groups. And we're off to the races! .
