    Religion and hair

    It is about control, I believe. If you can be convinced to bend to the will of others as to what is obviously yours, you begin the journey toward being under their total control...

    Christians - Unity among Abrahamic Faiths in RF

    This is a great idea, the success of which will be keeping people who hate out of the discussions. Perhaps the "Comparative Religions" is the place to put it, since "debate" is prohibited there. It will need good moderation to work, methinks...

    Osama bin Laden dead: Christians should pray for his soul, cardinal claims

    I agree with the thoughts of Jordan St. Francis. When you think about it, OBL must now meet his victims in the hereafter. So, praying for his soul is praying for a reconciliation of all those souls in another life. Hopefully hate is disallowed there...

    Well, at least that theory fits in with the Lone Ranger thing...

    lady gaga is an abomination

    Actually I think she is copying the Lone Ranger. Nobody ever knew what he looked like for real... james

    You don't show respect for my religion!

    I find that many people conflate respect and courtesy. I will always be courteous regarding the belief of another, whereas respect, to me, connotes admiration, even seems to require esteem. Perhaps the answer to the famous "it depends on what the definition of is is" is that thin line...

    Am I The Only One Who Thinks Killing Osama Wasn't The Right Thing To Do

    Some very brave men took an extremely serious risk, and I like to think it was partly on behalf of every US citizen who suffered through 9-11. I am too busy thanking and saluting them to worry over the demise of the coward who engendered our national grief. james

    Osama bin Laden is dead!

    Well, could be. Following your line, perhaps OBL had just died from kidney failure, and we were given the opportunity to "capitalize" on it ...

    Wrong to Cheat on Partner?

    "A 50% fail rate in business would be ridiculously high" Songbird- I enjoy your take on things, but would question this statement... james

    Wrong to Cheat on Partner?

    Hi, Songbird & Hi, Kathryn! I think the complexity of the issue is astounding, especially in view of the fact that one is generally making a lifetime decision based upon what they see early on. Few in business, politics, science, etc. would be so, shall we say, brave. I could discuss this...

    Wrong to Cheat on Partner?

    Certainly a lofty position, and one I once strongly adhered to. The result was that my friends who went "dallying around" are still happily married, while I took a financial, emotional and social bath by having the "guts to be honest"... james

    What's fair for a Christian in discussing matzah?

    "I need insight as to how insensitive is it to have such a post, or is the Jewish kid taking this too personal." I see nothing wrong with your son's post. All this "civility" is just scrim, for the world is getting meaner and meaner. That other kid was mean-spirited to start a controversy...

    Christians Only: Yet ANOTHER THREAD on the Trinity!

    I disbelieve in the trinity to a level that makes it difficult to understand how anyone else can. However, I have grown weary of debating it. I think debating "belief", which by its nature is undebatable, is like engaging in a jello fight- you're going to get messy even if the other guy...
