That's just too funny.

Perhaps one should read the book of Hebrews, to whom these sorts of questions are addressed.

Libertarian. But no surprise there.

I don;t know why this gets ignored so much depending on your political stance. NO ONE did enough before 9/11. It is what we learn from that day that matters, not before it, to a larger extent.

He bought it in 1998 IIRC.

Dallas is FULL of mega-churches. I can't complain about that, per se, because it got me back to going to church. But, I remember many a time the preacher there talking about we have nothing but the best lights, sound, auditorium, church, etc, and wouldn't God want the best for His house? I think the answer lies for what you use it for. It's called a seeker's church for a reason. I always wanted more out of the sermons then the *snip* insert bible verse here and make it fit my sermon *snip* sort of view. In fact, I think that's borderline sacreligious because a verse taken out of context is very very dangerous. I found that one of the mega-churches did that all the time, and it made me mad because it meant that the clearer picture of what the verse was talking about got NO attention because it might have offended someone *Gasp*. That addresses the mega-church question. As far as Catholicism, I can never get a Catholic (HELP me here, please) explain to me why you have to have a man to confess your sins to when clearly in the New Testament you are supposed to confess to God himself through Jesus Christ. The whole principle of the Catholic religion never made sense to me. Thoughts?

Our pastor stands up there and says "I'm a screwup" a lot. And he means it. He wants us to learn from his lessons and how God blesses us, even though we screw up every single day of our lives. Christianity - not church - not the religion - the FAITH - the new testament - is what is most important. At the heart of it all, church, or at least the man made portion of it, sucks.

PA loosten up - I don't think Cheat was mocking you. This stuff is HILARIOUS.

Where did you get this? Pretty amazing, this is exactly what our preacher has been preaching on for about 3 or 4 weeks now. This at a Church of Christ. Alex (PA), think about that one... a TEXAS Church of Christ addressing these very things... WHOA...

Yea, we talked about that in another thread. It's pathetic.

You know, (maybe I should PM this) seriously, you have a pretty good writing ability. Don't sell yourself so short. You have a pretty good knowledge of stuff that's relevant - sometimes you even agree with Democrats...

Your favorite buddy, Sean Hannity, is here in town.

At least he's informed.

Go for it! It's funny because it's true.

Defense spending is not the issue. The bigger issue to me is he voted AGAINST the Persian Gulf war, after a REAL coalition was built to remove Saddam Hussein from Kuwait. Apparantly, that coalition did not meet the "global test" Kerry has in mind to justify a war. And don't even bring up Bush. It doesn't matter. KERRY did that, let his record show it.

LMAO. Quit playing on the internets, Tex.

That's 28% too many, if you ask me.

Clinton for Sec. General of the UN, where it's ok to lie. But apparantly, it's ok for the White House to be the house of liars, too. Look at the two screwoffs we have running for the White House now.

C'mon. Bush is a f***ing idiot, but to say "no casulaties"? Someone was on crack that day, and I don't know if it was Bush, or Robertson. I can't possibly believe that ANYONE would EVER say that.

yea, readandwhite... PROPS to ya buddy...

I just got home and flipped on the tv. All I can say is HOLY s***! I can't believe Boston came back from 3 love to win this thing... I tip my cap to them... Now I hope Houston wins. Houston vs. Boston... that would be a kick ass world series. In fact, Houston's 4.5 hours away... hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Weird that all you guys see nothing but "white" - on my pc it looks just fine? I wonder if it's 1024x724 vs. 800 x 600?
