I know. But he does mean well and he cares passionately for Jim Robinson and FR. That buys a ton of credibility and patience with me.

I’ve been here since April 1998 , so I’m obviously a retread. When I first joined FR, I rarely posted because I was so intimidated by many of the great minds here. Over the years, I timidly ventured forward into the debates and learned how to organize my thoughts into a cogent argument instead of resorting to my usual emotional responses. I’ve learned so much from this site and it’s still the first place I go to get my daily news fix.

Re: "Probably the biggest [FR debate] was the battle of the long-knives."

Anyone know what that specific FR debate was about?

Thanks...

Amen. God gave us all an addictive gene so we would search Him out. Instead we search many of the wrong places doing the wrong rings to fill that empty spot in our soul.

Some find it when they are 10, some at 14, and yet others may take years before they find it, even into their 90s or on their deathbed. Sadly, most humans never find it until it’s much much too late. However, each and everyone of us are in search of it, even though we don’t realize it.

This search could take us on journeys far from home and away from loved ones, or it could consist of a life long search in the little town we were born and never leave from. As we search, we will go through many trials and tribulations from thinking we found it. Just to realize, that which we search for has yet to be found. So we try to fill that empty cold spot with things like drugs, alcohol, sex, eating, television, work, money, shopping, and sports. We will go from one addiction to another, never feeling as fulfilled or satisfied as we were created to feel.

Throughout our human bodies, we have the power of Christ holding us together, with the Holy Spirit moving us to yearn for our Father.

The Holy Trinity is at work in us, and through us. Is it any wonder we have a craving to once again walk through the garden during the cool of the day with our Father?

From the moment Adam and Eve lost communion with God, because they ate of the fruit from the tree of knowledge of good and evil, man has been yearning to get back to Him.

Thanks

Great idea, didn’t think of that, but now I will.

[OneVike]

Yea, maybe I’ll quote Biden and add Winter to it.
