    Thank you, Rico. That means a lot. Best to you.

    I'm really not aware of putting any words in your mouth. I don't think I ever said you were unhappy or that you had a hard life. The "life's hard and then you die" thing is a general statement for most people. I don't see anything dishonest in that. If so, it certainly wasn't intentional. I...

    Dude, you've been bemoaning what an awful world this is. Probably ten times in the last three pages. "Rape, incest, murder, disasters, your God is awful at His job." That's a paraphrase, but does that sound familiar? Surely "life is hard and then you die" is not too much of a stretch for your...

    I love being in nature as much as the next guy. I envy you because of the “giants” you get to walk through and work on compared to my little prairie twigs. What are you worshipping when you are in nature? Trees are complex organisms and certainly didn’t create themselves. What is life? You...

    I'm not sure I follow your reasoning. How did you get that God is responsible for rape and incest? Sinful man is responsible for his own sinful actions. There is no doubt God does allow certain things though. He allowed His chosen people to be enslaved for 400 years in Egypt. He sent...

    Thank you, Reach. I appreciate the encouragement.

    You guys can pray for me- I've been off the last week and a half with a pulled groin. That's the only reason I'm on the Buzz during a work day. Doctor says six to eight weeks for a full recovery, but hopefully I can start back next week and just take things easier. Also, my access seems to be...

    Killing is okay some of the time*. Murder is wrong all of the time. *War, self-defense... God is the law-giver. God is the creator. As such, He has the right to do whatever He wants with His creation. As far as God killing goes, I'm still not sure that is the right word. Back to my fish...

    Where'd you get your stats? This is from the first pick off Google: https://news.gallup.com/poll/244709/pro-choice-pro-life-2018-demographic-tables.aspx

    ??? That was the heart of the meme/attachment you posted in #268. Why was it okay for Rico to go the abortion route from your post (and you liked it), but not for Reach?

    Check out GotQuestions, they've probably satisfactorily explained each one of those. https://www.gotquestions.org/ My first thoughts are: Whoever wrote that knows just enough to be dangerous. Cherry-picking single verses/events, without having a knowledge of context/background/history is...

    #15 Not to beat a dead horse with the Law of Sowing and Reaping, but I dug up some material I shared in Sunday School a few years ago. Some of it is repeat (I apologize), but it digs a little deeper. Proverbs 22:8 “He who sows iniquity will reap vanity.” There are many such verses throughout...

    Tom, I'm really confused how you see a rhino in chapter 41. It is clearly describing a sea creature. The first verse of 41 says, "Can you draw out Leviathan with a fish hook?" Verse 7 mentions fishing spears and harpoons. It seems to be reptilian and have scales. Oh yeah, and it seems to...

    Isn't that interesting. Similarly, I've been amazed at the recent rise in the idea of a meta-verse, and not just in sci-fi movies. It is everywhere now. Leading scientists realize the implications of our "fine-tuned" universe and are desperate for any way to explain it without God. Why are we...

    You can if you want to, but nobody is forcing you to re-post this stuff on your website, Tom. I'm sorry, that was just too good to pass up. I can't find the post about all of this possibly disappearing, but just don’t forget to do it in the name of tolerance. Tom, I’m curious, did you watch...
