• ‘Moses Shaped America’: Despite the Naysayers…America Really Is a Judeo-Christian Nation

  In reply to Individualism.

  I wish one of you scholars would give me the exact scripture and verse that contains the seven noahide laws. I can’t seem to find it in my bible. And I don’t mean within the 10 comandments.

• Teen Atheist Behind Prayer Mural Ban Wants Contentious WWI & WWII Cross Removed

  Atheism is a religion. So what we have here is one religion complaining about another. The government should not get involved with a religious disagreement. Leave things alone.

  Check your facts, The constitution originally called for a standing Navy and a Militia which was the equivalent to a reserve. There was no call for a “standing ” army. Other than that I agree with your post.

  I take exception to your inference that Jesus spoke Koine Greek. I’m sure you think this because of the misconception that the New Testament was first inscribed in Greek. Evidence points out that Aramaic was the primary language of Jerusalem and the likely original language of most of the New Testament.

  “Cessna haven’t made those in years. So maintenance has to be optimum, meaning, no cutting corners. But in Obama’s economy, things like this are bound to happen, if for whatever, reason repairs couldn’t be made in a timely manner. So it will be interesting to hear the final report on what occurred for that plane to go down.”

  I’m sure you mean well, but 11 years is fairly new for aircraft such as this. Many of them are better now than they were when they left the assembly line. I don’t have the final report yet either but the fact revealed that they asked for a lower altitude indicates that they were in IFR and the weather was the problem. A pilot with mechanical problems will not ask for a lower altitude without stating his problem. I know, been there done that. If the problem is mechanical only it is best to gain higher altitude to insure a glide to a suitable landing site. This was more than likely a weather related accident.

• ‘You Haven’t Even Thought This Out’: O‘Reilly Confronts ’Drop the I-Word‘ Spokeswoman in Sizzling ’Factor’ Segment

  If you were the Czar of Immigration, what would you make the “law of the Land”?

  Mexico is creating a climate of poverty to encourage it’s native population to move north of the border, where they send about 32 billion dollars back to Mexico annually.
  I live among them. Several have told me that they hope to eventually go back home to Mexico when they retire. Even the ones who have obtained US citizenship. They problem is that they have children who don’t want to go to Mexico because thought they are loyal to Mexico, it is a foreign country to them. So their parents are trapped here.

  My law would be to (1) allow open access to Mexican and Canadian citizens via “Green” card “WORK PERMITS” which would say you can come and seek work, but if you are not working for a period of time (maybe 90 days), you must return to your country. (2) Keep the U.S. government informed at all times as to you location and work record. (3) Pay an agreed upon (Flat) Payroll tax and (Flat) Income tax as agreed upon by treaty. (4) Require Mexico and Canada to reimburse the United States for any medical cost incurred by foreign national under this agreement. (5) Any children born to Foreign nationals under this agreement would not be subject to automatic citizenship and when the parent returns to their home country permanently, they must go also.

  Anybody got any other ideas???????

• ‘Anti-Piracy Curtain’: Super Soak Pirates to Prevent Them From Boarding Your Ship

  April 28, 2012 at 9:16am

  The ships have no weapons because the United Nations in it’s wisdom has disarmed them, just like they would like to do to Americans. If they do disarm us I guess we would then be fighting “land” pirates.

• New Bible Translation Replaces ‘Christ,‘ ’Angel’ & ‘Apostle’

  April 20, 2012 at 9:47am

  Like most of you I haven’t read this new version of the Bible. But if all they have done is change the terms used to describe Jesus, angels and apostles, where is the problem. After all the name we use in the KJV are mere translations of the Greek, translated from the Hebrew. Christ is a derived term which began as “Mashiyach”, the “Anointed one”, Jesus is derived from “Y’shua”, which means “He saves” or “to rescue” and “Angel” is a translation of “Messenger” or “Mal’akh”.
  Life runs in circles. If this is their only contribution, to go back to the original terms, God Bless them.

  If I do get time to read more, I will look for inconsistencies. But until then I will not jump to conclusions

• ‘The Proof of Innocence’: Read the Math Problem That Got One Man Out of a Traffic Ticket

  April 16, 2012 at 12:28pm

  He obviously wasn’t driving in south Chicago. If he had been, the Officer would validate the ticket by saying that no one checked his doors at the stop sign, therefore he had not come to a full and complete stop.

  That’s not even good acting. I know grief when I see it and that act was not even a good try.
