Been away almost a month, checking out other forums. They are all the same; only the names change. People fussing about Trump or Obama, people endlessly arguing about religion to no avail, and certain sites having extreme forms of censorship.
An entire planet full of people and it's the same...
Decided to take some time off from RF. No one engages me as a deist, and I have no desire to log in to 15 different threads b*tching about President Trump every day.
Those that I chat with, you know where to find me.
On February 1, 2003, the space shuttle Columbia broke up on re-entry. During the launch, a piece of the falling foam punched a hole in the wing of the shuttle, and that caused a breach in the integrity of the heat shield. All 7 astronauts lost their lives. They are as follows:
Commander Rick...
People are ticked off over President Trump closing the borders, and turning Muslim immigrants away. The problem is that most people are not fully understanding why he is doing it. Allow me to shed some light on the subject.
The greatest threat to the USA's national security is ISIS. Radical...

The Bible (OT) actually has 613 commandments, not 10.
Christians will say that Jesus fulfilled the Law and a new covenant was created. They will quote Matthew 5:17 as proof of that. However, they fail to keep reading the rest of the chapter, and in particular the next two verses.
[NASB]
5:18...
I have so many that I love, having grown up in that era. I'll start with this one:
Sebastian Bach singing "I Remember You." No autotune or digital processing. Just pure, raw talent (as it should be).
50 years ago on this date, 3 US astronauts lost their lives due to an electrical fire. They were seated inside the Command Module of Apollo I, when the fire broke out. The oxygen rich environment and nylon material inside the CM fueled the fire. The astronauts could not escape through the hatch...
This is not a debate, just a general discussion. Far too often I see people getting upset when a Muslim says "Allah," and I am left wondering why. Allah is merely the Arabic word for God. If they say "Allah be praised," they are saying "God be praised," which is a good thing!
No one gets upset...
Spent the afternoon raking the leaves in my front yard (ok, I used a blower). Boys came home from school and could not resist diving in and scattering them all over the place. Sigh. What's a dad to do but let them have their fun! :)
Edit: wife wanted me to remove the pic. :shrug: Happy wife =...
Just curious who the other religious scholars are (or how many are on RF) that have a degree in theology, divinity, or other area of religious study. It does not matter if the institution was accredited or not. Nor does the specific religion matter.
Many people may not realize it right now, but the protests, the violence, the chants of "not my president," etc., are only going to hurt the Democratic Party in the long run. Moderates and swing voters are looking at that behavior and they will associate it with the Left. When future elections...
I can't give you a link to an article because one does not exist (yet). All I can say is that there was some discussion this morning looking into a federal lawsuit aimed at Leftist groups that intentionally tried to disrupt President Trump's inauguration. It would not be directed at the...
Here are some pics of the peaceful protests that are taking place in Washington D.C. today:
Smashed store windows, cars set on fire, police assaulted, and people getting drenched in foam mace because they can't act right.
D.C. is a powder keg right now. People are on the streets doing everything from peaceful marches to smashing windows and throwing stuff. There is a line that you don't cross. Many have stepped over it.
A protest should be peaceful, and it is the right of every US citizen to do so. That is...
