How many licks does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Roll Tootsie Pop?
Vinegar, mayo or ketchup on your fries?
Seriously, this is something i just can't get my head round. Why do you (many people) put so much faith in religion?

What do you do with your socks once they get holes in them?
Do you feel that technological research should be reigned in a little? For example when it comes to making genetically enhanced children that don't need to take vitamin C, do you feel that kind of thing is inadvisable?Well.... I won't let it ALL hang out... but if you are curious, ask.
I'll eventually get to your question.
Do you feel it wise to censor internet porn and if so by what means?
Do you feel that if the world continues another 1000 or so years that it might tend towards a global government? Is this good or bad?
Which is better: Daffy Duck or Donald Duck?
STTOS, STTNG, STDS9, STV, STD, STP, or one of the others?

I have noticed that you are unfailingly polite when responding to posters who adopt a somewhat, shall we say, belligerent attitude towards people of faith. Is this something you have to work at? And are you trying to respond in the way you think Jesus would?

I'll eventually get to your question.
Do you think there were fish on Noah's ark ? Why or why not?
WOW! That is actually a very good question that I haven't really formed a view on. In certain circumstances, definitely yes. Cloning people would be a no no to me.
Removing the extra chromosome, Yes.
Don't need vitamin C... I would say "no". It violates the natural order of the body. Maybe that is the dividing line... that which violates the natural order.
Yes - although any laws never changes the heart. As per those who have been involved and have left the industry, it is a destruction of lives and certainly destroys lives as it reaches innocent children.
The most important part would be to stop it at the roots. (Production thereof). Obviously that is only possible within a country's border.
That being said, I believe the technology is there to stop it. If we can censor different viewpoints on Covid and how to handle it, I believe the process is already there to stop the proliferation of it on the internet. If one can hack into government entities, it isn't difficult to hack into web sites.
In every case except one, absolute power absolutely corrupts. Of course, in my faith, there will be a global effort for one government. It will be detrimental to people as it will be used for control and power.
Duck Duck Goose.
Are you Pentecostal, evangelical or mainline?
I'll eventually get to your question.

No, I don't believe we are in the end-times... I believe we are in the beginning tremors of the same.
But like the toilet paper roll, the closer you get to the end, the faster the roll turns. The potential is that my position could change in my lifetime.
That is a good question.
We have a saying that you are "Loved, accepted and connected"
Loved in that love is unconditional. Trying not look at the heart and not what you see. Not that I have perfected it (I also need unconditional love) but always realizing that there is a person behind what we see. Forgiveness is a powerful tool in this department.
Accepting the person... many times people say "I know that my parents love me but they don't accept me". Meeting people where they are at -- and, hopefully, moving them forward in life.
Connecting is the outward expression of the above two. Whether paying for someones groceries, helping a single parent, connecting them with other helps, Working towards housing, food, counseling... it can have a myriad of facets.
Does that make sense? Did I answer the question?

LOL... Do I have to choose? On spaghetti, I have used tomato sauce and, at other times, used mayonnaise.
The original series was the best.
At least in my eyes... call me ancient and unchangeable if you will... until... Star Wars.
LOL... I don't like Tootsie Rolls because you can never lick it and eventually, on the first chomp, it gets stuck in your teeth.
