    Safe Spaces

    I suspect if you were to go into your local Walmart and start shouting about how Walmart sucks you'd soon find yourself removed from the Walmart. There is a difference between what rules the government is allowed to make and what rules non-government entities are allowed to make.

    Lämmchen's Workout Thread

    Today was a harder run than I've done in a while. I'm still averaging a good chunk off my personal best times, but I'm also still taking walk breaks because I'm prone to overdo it and need to bring my pulse down. But I'm getting a lot faster on the hills - when I get to the top of a steady...

    Lämmchen's Workout Thread

    Just noticed how long it's been since I posted in here. With the summer heat I really struggled to maintain much of a pace running but now it's cooler I've managed to step it up a bit. Over the weekend I needed to clear my head and went for my regular walk up to the vista I like. I've been...

    Junk Foods

    Very true, I've often found that exact thing. I figure that if I just eat whatever takes my fancy every once in a while it's not going to hurt me, as long as it isn't a daily thing. I like chocolate, cheese, ice cream, all sorts of stuff. But thanks to eating a lot less of them, and running...

    There will come a time when those killing you will think they are doing it for God

    Yes, but the OP was talking about something in the future, so presumably he was talking about something that isn't in the distant past.

    There will come a time when those killing you will think they are doing it for God

    I wouldn't be surprised to see a time when people who claim to follow the God of the Bible will do such things. It would imply they have a distorted view of God but, as the OP suggests, they may very well think they are doing it for God. It reminds me of a quote from (I think) Paul Washer, who...

    Junk Foods

    I don't really see it as "giving in". There are some foods I enjoy that would be considered junk food but every once in a while they aren't going to do me significant harm.

    Do we only use 90% of our brains?Yes or no?:)

    Back in the 80s it was said that we only used about 10% of our brain, with much speculation as to what might happen if we could unlock the rest. I haven't heard the theory presented in a while now.

    Hymn of the week thread

    Our church sang the hymn, O Lord My God, When I In Awesome Wonder. It's been a while since I heard that one, and it was one I particularly appreciated. I've been thinking a lot about worship as a weapon against the darkness, and when those words appeared on the screen I had to smile even before...

    Can all believers cast out demons?

    It's sad when this sort of thing happens, it doesn't take very many kooks and charlatans to smear the reputation of the genuine. Sadly whenever there's an opportunity for some glory there's someone tempted to take it for themselves. Hence the people who claim to have special revelations...

    USA States Redistricting

    Political parties try to gain an advantage by redrawing maps, however bizarre the maps need to be. As a wise man once wrote, there's nothing new under the sun.

    Do you look like your spouse?

    Well, I have two arms, two legs, a head, a fairly generic human outline so in that respect I bear some resemblance to my wife. I don't think anyone would have too much trouble telling us apart though.

    Tough Love or Help?

    This is a really difficult balancing act. It's hard to see people, especially people we care about, struggling with a situation when we know we could either help or make the entire situation go away. Help with too many conditions can become controlling; help with too few conditions can become...

    Physical Therapy for knee

    My wife twisted her knee a while back and had a few sessions with a physiotherapist. They gave her specific exercises to do between appointments. It's probably better to figure out what's wrong with your niece's knee and exercise accordingly - if her condition is different the wrong exercises...

    Perseid Meteor Shower Peaks Aug 12-13

    Last night my wife and I went to the top of a nearby mountain to get away from light pollution. We saw one, then enjoyed a view of the clouds that rolled in. We got home and saw two within a minute. The night before I watched from the driveway and saw half a dozen or so including a couple of...

    Burgers besides beef?

    I've had burgers made of chicken, lamb, elk, buffalo. Maybe others that I forgot over the years.

    How to identify a valid pastor.

    Micro evolution, otherwise known as adaptation, can be demonstrated in a few weeks in a laboratory using microbes. I forget the details of the research, I read a paper describing an experiment in about 1990 written by some researchers in the United Kingdom. Being over 30 years ago I forget the...

    How to identify a valid pastor.

    Simply reasserting your point doesn't change anything. I see little purpose in continuing to engage with you, since that's about all you're doing here.

    How to identify a valid pastor.

    This simply isn't true. There are forms of adaption, aka micro evolution, that can be demonstrated in a laboratory in a matter of weeks. The idea that life appeared out of nothing and then evolved into what we see today has some evidence supporting it and a whole host of unanswered questions...
