Thanks for the replies. There's always a trade off. Even with the most reliable books and creeds. It's like America these days. Trading freedom for security. We trade some of the freedom truth provides for the security of creeds that m…

The old Logos forum had more diversity in numbers. But I believe the common error in bible interpretation comes from looking for scripture to bolster an idea. We have shortcuts in books and creeds that can put us years ahead in forming…

I'm not sure what you are getting at but since DT asked about what was going on, I assumed he hadn't dropped in for awhile. But I must say, I wish I was as meticulous and had the sensitivity for details you are gifted with.

(Quote)Violence is violence.
(Quote)The streets of Chicago do not belong to the gangs, but it is still aggression when they go about shooting them up.
(Quote)What aggression? If the land doesn't belong to Israel, then it is purely aggression on their part not to acclimate and place themselves under the governments that be instead of overthrowing them and stealing their land.
(Quote)Support for aggression is a sure sign of approval.

(Quote)How do you support Israel and preach to Palestinians?
