Is Dave providing the only thread old TOL members find worthy of response? If so, then we have a problem.

Yes, I have examined him in many posts and he has a fixation on homosexuality. This usually comes from a past mishap, or past shocking event. Anyway, he does not come across as a common bigot, since his fixation is on one behaviour, in past time, was believed to be a mental illness, and many...

This is a thread for understanding what is Original Sin. Is it real, did God punish all because of Adam's sin? What is the meaning? Was it a Catholic Church invention? Post what you think on this topic. I am willing to write on it if asked nicely; I don't care to make statements for anyone...

.....but it is not that simple! The man had previously married a woman because the baby-face playgirl types he was attracted to showed no interest in him. He told his first wife; " I married you because my ideal woman would never give me a second look, but when I was in my 30s, many of these...

I was thinking, hearing politicians on TV talk about preserving religious liberally and it seems to me this means forcing some folks to practice religion in indirect ways. We have always had laws for not selling alcohol on Sunday, yet now that I think about it, these laws infringe on all those...

There are racist bigots and no training will change that. If you came into adulthood after the mid-seventies, then you developed in a world, which was sensitive to racism, and did not condone it. It seems to me the only racists who have a cultural biased excuse are those who achieved adulthood...

Differences between a wacko and a normal person on homosexuality This is aimed at those who dislike homosexuality. Now, I have studied psychoanalysis and from that position, I see homosexuality as a mental illness. Most on here who disapprove of homosexuality base it on religious reasons and...

The real problem with drug abuse is not the suppliers and dealers, but the users. If there was no demand for these stupid narco and speed drugs, the supply business would go away. Figure it this way; their are some big suppliers who sell the junk, but have never been stupid to use it...

I really do not understand nuns! This is why. They say they are married to Christ, but that is not really true, but a metaphor for loving Christ, which is the good part about them. The trouble is they never mate with a man, have babies and a family. It seems other nuns become their family...

I saw it now. Is Pluto still thought to be a planet? The models back in school were way off scale. To do it right, the planets to Mars would have to nearly touch the sun and Pluto would have to be a football fields' length away.

I don't get it; the scroll to explore does not do anything?

They lack confidence where it counts. I have admitted being wrong on many things to most of you and quite to AMR. You just don't know what you do not know.

I do not believe in sextants ether, in fact, it might be a dirty word? :idunno: Walmart is flat

How many hours of sleep do you get at night. Do you go to bed early and wake early, or stay up late and sleep in? Do you often go with little sleep? New studies seem to say we need more sleep than most of us get. It seems more sleep helps our overall state of health. Some persons have serious...

My house up here in Alabama has a heat pump and setting at 82 degrees, it feels as cold as my refrigerator. The only way to get it to put out heat is set it very high and get the electric coils to come on. I had it checked and it does have a slow leak, but I had it charged up last week. They...

I do not believe a regular good guy would buy dirty powders and then cook it in a spoon and inject that potentially diseased substance into their vein. No, never did I think any moral and normal person would do that! I do understand having a severe pain condition and needing so much pain...

Going out on Halloween, door to door Trick-or-treating, when is someone likely too old to go house to house for treats?

Maybe it is me, and maybe it is a change in membership? I remember when I had my best debate within the theological constructs of basic Christian Doctrine, meaning debate in the confines of the Trinity understanding, where debate centered on good biblical exegeses. Debated on the difference of...
