Xena the xylographer.

I will probably be there sooner, I will save you a seat. :)

What a beautiful image. I look forward to seeing you there!

Vince the ventriloquist.

It all started in a garden. The LORD God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it. Genesis 2:15

Terry the tachygrapher.

Welcome! As others have mentioned you will find all types here. You may find that some are only here to sow dissent or undermine the Christian faith. On the plus side, they are few and it doesn't take long to figure out which ones they are. You can then put them on "ignore" and concentrate...

You're not alone, many have felt that way. Dostoyevsky even spoke of a similar feeling in The Brothers Karamazov. I love humanity . . . but I can’t help being surprised at myself: the more I love humanity in general, the less I love men in particular, I mean, separately, as separate...

I can't really think of an instance where this has happened to me. Disagreements I've had with other Christians have always been on issues that I felt were of minor importance or ones we have no way of knowing for sure. May I ask what the issue was that inspired this thread? It must have been...

This has been an interesting thread. Going back to your original question, I would now say, you should go ahead and tell them as clearly as possible without worrying about offending them. Before I was a Christian, I had multiple encounters with people sharing the Gospel. Some where fire and...

You could be right, but don't let it stop you from contributing to an IRA. :) Sorry to make light of your concerns with your parents, but does it really matter if they believe we are in the end times or not? Isn't living a good Christian life and loving God the important thing? So if the...

The whole thing is strange and sad. I wonder if she really wants to die. She says: "In the three and a half years this has taken, I’ve never hesitated about my decision." Is this someone truly intent on killing themselves? Maybe it is a cry for help? I'm afraid that now it is sanctioned by...

Personally I would let them be and pray for them. We can only do so much in convincing others. I would be afraid that using a stronger approach would make them dig in more. Not that I would be concerned so much about offending them, rather I just don't think it would help change their minds...

These can be difficult situations. I think it is best to tell them your thoughts, but not brow beat them with them. Sometimes the best way to get people to examine their beliefs is not to tell them what is correct, rather to ask them questions about their beliefs/thoughts. This may get them...

Praying for continued peace in the Philippines.

I tried too. I was a atheist's when I first read the Bible, and at the time thought it was riddled with flaws. The problem is, no human is truly objective. Also we tend to make the mistake of thinking what seems to be true for us personally is a universal truth. Perhaps AI can look at...

I can't see that it helps or hurts Biden, but it just seems bazaar to have the SBA involved in voter registration.

Can AI be used for apologetics and how? AI is largely a function of it's programmers. So the more objective the programmers are ( Don't have a specific political/philosophical agenda.) the more likely it would support apologetics. That is it would support the truth.

I don't see this as a form of idolatry. Rather it is a recognition to a man who gave his life to Christ. As his son says: "This isn’t just a statue of my father — it represents the One that he surrendered his life to and the message that he preached for more than 80 years, that God loves us...

Kidney stones. All the pain of childbirth and none of the joy!
