Wayfarer pilgrim wrote: Why wasn’t it written in Arabic ? And often the name the prophet Mohammad’s name is not to be displayed for public reading. It’s a teenage vandalism story. Probably true, WP. If it were of the holy war mentality, it more likely would have been blown up or burned down. |

Jim Lincoln wrote: .. too bad too many pastors don't feel any pressure on not preaching politics. Preaching the gospel to the choir seems to be a silly way to go. How does that change minds outside the stained glass windows? Speaking on the evils of the day is politics? A self-check on motive could be useful. |

John Lee wrote: Just thinking, I thought it may be wise to see what their church actually seeks to do, and calling itself 'continuing' as they do. It transpires that they want to restore the Anglican church back to its roots, which are: The 1662 Book of Common Prayer and the 39 Articles of Religion. So would that be a restoration job, or a reforming job? Several congregations have left Canterbury to do just one or the other. http://cofec.org/welcome/the-church-of-england-continuing/ John, I'm not very familiar with the 1662 Book, nor the 39 articles, but with a quick look I see they still go in for infant baptism, and in doing so claim regeneration for the infant(27th Article) because adults have spoken in its name. Extra-biblical at best. But with such limited input, my non-expert opinion would say the CofE continuing be some of both reformation and restoration. Then comes the question if restoration is to its own roots, while better than the poor Canterbury excuse for what passes for Anglican, is this better than restoration to biblical roots? |

John Lee wrote: .. Of course, some have, and begun a new church (continuing); but how much better to start again from scratch and do a proper fine tune on church structure and method, getting rid of the remains of Catholicism or tradition. It may be that they continue to seek, as in the past, reformation, (fix the structure) instead of restoration. (start fresh, with truth) |

Jim Lincoln wrote: excerpt from, "Evangelicals are Becoming Politically Progressive" https://tinyurl.com/yxamxnvr .... No they're not. Excerpt is nonsense, title from which it came is a false statement. Why would conservative evangelicals become wacko leftist wing dings, other than in the imagination and futile hope of wishful thinkers? |

Christopher000 wrote: .. Why does the life of an animal hold so much more weight over a little human life? Why do animals have lawful rights to life, while a little, helpless human baby, has no rights? Wicked lunatics. .. Your last two words answers the questions perfectly, Christopher. These lunatics look like humans, but have given up their humanity for mindless barbarism. Picture them dragging their knuckles along the ground, followed by their pit bulls, looking for tiny humans to kill. That is what they are, regardless of the nice suits they wear. |
