It doesn’t sound like you do.
Sure it would a good thing, if by voluntary agreement. Ain't gonna happen that way, so they want to use coercion or force.
Actually, I seem to remember the Catholic position on abortion is contradictory to their own theology. Goes back to St Anselm or St Augustine’s arguments on the origins of life. If the soul life of the human is passed from the previous human generation genetically, then the argument against abortion is sound. On the contrary, I believe the Catholic position of St Anselm insisted upon the origin of our soul life to come directly from God, such that if a baby is emitted from the womb stillborn, it had not received a soul life from God. Accordingly, the cessation of a living fetus is not the same as a human life because it doesn’t yet have the soul.
The study also goes back to issues of imputation and grace.
Satan is setting it up for one purpose . . . to force folks to worship him as God.
Consequences will accrue.
vote wisely? my vote doesn’t count where I live. Every district I live in has been gerrymandered for the incumbent.
I was planning on campaign for someone in a NEARBY district ... a district where I have no vote. SAD isn’t it?
it makes me wonder why they do it. The conservatives in the state House. They are in a hopeless minority. Why are they so dedicated? if they realize what is going on, they would probably get wise and retire from politics.
I think that
life begins at conception
is the most Godly perspective.
Very understandable feelings.
Increasingly . . . ONLY WHAT’S DONE FOR CHRIST will last.
It’s always been true. Never truER than now.
Yet, throwing in the towel is not the Godly thing to do, either.
One just has to follow Holy Spirit’s wisdom day by day, moment by moment, context by context, imho.
Where do we draw the line? Premptive strikes would not be considered self defense, but murder. We may end up having to fight off Obama's Blueshirts and the UN's blue helmets, but to be in the right we have to wait for their attack.
The old saying "cut off the head and the snake will die" comes into play as well. Taking out the enemy leadership works, but at what point can it be justified?
..... But I do know what psychotic-level paranoia is.
2) Does the tin foil hat have to be grounded and will power system ground suffice to enable mobility?
3) Does the tin foil hat have to by pyramid shaped?
I have not been able to find real TIN foil at any of my stores. Only that inferior aluminum stuff.
Evidently your criteria are grossly flawed.
Or your blindness and biases are clouding your judgment.
Or you just enjoy being derisive toward someone you disagree with.
Or maybe . . .
it’s reaction formation projection?
Quite plausible, evidently.
After the chit hits the fan, no place will be truly *safe*. Be well armed and have the necessary provisions to survive without electricity, water, fuel etc. Most of it is just common sense preparedness for any emergency.
Should be interesting to see . . . looking back even maybe months from now . . . say 3.5 years from now . . .
how oriented
to true reality . . . you really were in May 2009.
Indeed.
Stan Deyo’s site has a lot of good stuff, too.
He’s a genuine Christian as well . . . and . . . used to work around UFO stuff.
No, sorry, I’m not slipping and sliding, you just haven’t done your homework on this. The Osservatore Romano is a newspaper. It only dates to the 1860s. It ain’t part of the teaching office of the Church. Period.
Many people fail to grasp that not only are there conservatives who give credance to some conspiracy theories, even more dangerous are some very wealthy and powerful liberals who believe in them and work to build their own empires consistent with the premises of such CTs.
In most cases, those so involved know very little of the entire CT, except perhaps what they may have exposed with directly, and frequently do what is right in their own eyes, furthering the worldly system.
IMHO, the systems have become so convoluted that the most secure basis is to return to God through faith in Christ, and relearn the basics in Bible Doctrine continually and apply it daily in whatever situation we are faced, though faith in Christ, while in fellowship with Him.
I mean really, got any ideas to contribute or just having fun mocking others?
Ignorance is bliss, eh???
