The Neverending Story
An ongoing debate on Scripture, Tradition, History and Interpretation.

Statesmen may plan and speculate for liberty, but it is religion and morality alone which can establish the principles upon which freedom can securely stand. The only foundation of a free constitution is pure virtue. - John Adams

Once you've eaten a Cracker Barrel breakfast, Waffle Houses don't count.

I haven't said this much through the life of this thread, but here goes ...

I gree with you , JH!!!! ;o)

A full apology for her actions in helping to sexualise children in our culture would be a good start to a serious evaluation.

I was surprised to hear her say words to the effect that she was ashamed of how she was before age 40. Could be a start.

"gree" = "agree"

Forgot to spellcheck.

You know. Sometimes those brought up Catholic need a little time to adjust. LOL

Howdy, welcome aboard!

I think I must have misunderstood you at some level because we seem to be agreeing. Wow! That is a rare thing on here!

Finally, common ground, and it had to be our stomachs that unified us. hahahaha

How's about "Uncle Hershels Sunrise Sampler"? My wife loves the "Egg in a Blanket" I think it's called, the sourdough biscuit with a hole cut out of the middle, and an egg inside.

When we travel north of here, it's usually the thoughts of the CB that motivates us to head out. Lol

Maybe I'll just open up a can of worms and run. I was just wondering where people in this forum stand on life issues. After attending the National Right to Life banquet last night, I am wondering a few things. How we can consistently be pro-life, pro-death penalty and pro-war? Are the right wing Christian conservatives somehow inconsistent in their stance on life by being both pro-life for the unborn yet pro-death penalty when there are those who have been wrongly convicted of murder by our judicial system?

But first she has to get her own dirt.

Madonna? I don't think Madonna has any problem creating her own dirt. ;-)

With regard to the death penalty, a graduate of my seminary started a ministry and I thought you might be interested. It is called Centurion Ministries and it works to free those who have been wrongly convicted. Here is a list of cases they have worked on.

Just war. Just punishment.

There is no "just" abortion.

Is it inconsistent to jail people, after all some people have been wrongly convicted?

We strive for excellence, certainly in this country more than in any other. But errors will always happen in human systems. We can wring our hands, or we can do our best to ensure that errors are caught.

No one can honestly state that anyone is executed in this country without going through multiple rings of various jurisdictions and watchdogs. We've had two guys here in PA who killed like 10 people, including some cops in 1981. They are still on the "due process" merry-go-round.

There is little more we can do.

Is Mumia on the list?

I hope we don't waste our last 535 on spaming to be the last one to post.
