I like ‘em!
Looks like quite a few here...
I got new Reeboks....
I’ve always wanted a pair of red Reebok hi-tops, but could never afford them. Now, I am “affording” Sketchers because I walk so much, and I need something that won’t fall apart after a few miles.
I console myself by buying them at the outlet store for $40.
:o])
Of course, to you personally. I already believe I know what God would answer. And if you're right it doesn't matter what God would answer. I'm asking you because I'm interested in what you think.
I was talking about in-store. I got a pair on line recently. They look great but the right one’s a little tight. No matter, I can use a shoe horn, except the first one I got was plastic and it broke.
I thank you for the link and I may try the on-line option again, but I’d really like to find a pair in a store, basic black.
I matter to me. I like existing. Even with the bad parts.
I am an arrogant sod, but why should I think anything like a Universe spanning Deity would care whether or not I ate pork today? Or own a dog? Or whether I worked on a Sunday?
I haven’t seen any penny loafers in a store for years. And I wouldn’t mind having a pair, myself.
Mine aren’t high tops but they were $30 in a warehouse club. That’s the only occasion on which I’ll purchase big brands.
I’d include it.
It would make for an interesting theological side debate.
Jews are required to not uncircimcise themselves. If God puts it back, are they required to remove it again, or does a single circumcision suffice?

Good enough. I like having you here, if that matters. But given your statement that why we are here doesn't matter, then you can't really call it irrational if someone else doesn't like hanging around through the bad parts. True, things might get better for them, but they might not. It's not fun any more now, and it doesn't matter anyway. How could that be irrational?

On whether you eat pork - unless you're Jewish I don't think He does. On owning a dog, I don't think He's ever opined on that, but you'd better treat it well if you do. On whether you work on a Sunday, it's actually Saturday, and He cares about that for your sake, not His.
Aren't there some things you make the dog do because they're good for the dog, regardless of whether they matter to you?
I had them stretched as far as they could go by a cobbler. The left one is fine. The right one is a bear to get on without the shoehorn.
Can you still get a metal shoehorn? I’m going to check with that cobbler.
If God required the circumcision then God would not put it back.
This raises an interesting question. Peter cut off the High Priest's Servant's right ear. The right ear is the ear a servant would have punctured with an awl if he wanted to remain the High Priest's servant forever.
Jesus healed the ear. Did he heal it with or without the puncture wound? (For the sake of discussion, let's assume the servant had had his ear punctured.)
That's what TV is for. We're all supposed to be speaking with a mid-west accent by now.
Check your premise.
The appendix has a use.
It is a reservoir for friendly intestinal bacteria to to repopulate your gut after a bout of "stomach flu".
Mine went over to the dark side and had to be evicted...
Counter acting that is “Leet”, “Lolcat”, and “txt” speak.
That's what I get for not reading thw whole post before responding...
