Why Are Americans So Angry? -
- E. Raymond Rock (3,068)
E. Raymond Rock
"All acceptance is the key to the gateless gate." (Old Zen saying). Good advice, especially when it comes to things we can't prevent or fix.

E. Raymond Rock
Over 4,000 different belief systems exist in the world, each with its proponents understandably claiming that people of faiths other than theirs are doomed.

Robert Melaccio, Sr.
Yes a mixture of all but when we see the results of mankind we start to comprehend the immense evil that is created and propagated under the guise of good, decent, right, necessary.

Dear God, I'm Kinda Mad at You -
- Fran Larson (2,271) 
Fran Larson
I think I am kinda mad at you, Dear God. I may as well tell you, since you can read my thoughts. I'm upset over the things that have happened the last 2 or 3 years. I don't like to be shaken up like that. I don't like the way it feels. Grief is so hard, dear Lord.

Work Out Your Own Salvation -
- Denny Smith (937)
As I was thinking about doing an article on this famous passage from the book of Philippians chapter 2:12-13 I first did a little Google research to see if anyone else had done so and if so to see what they were saying.

What if You Fall? -

My wife too, knows... ( added 10 days 19 hours ago.) |

Terry Mitchell
Nationally syndicated columnist Leonard Pitts recently published an op-ed piece in which he mocked Rush Limbaugh's failed attempt to become a part owner of the St. Louis Rams.

When did Obedience Become Legalism? -
- Denny Smith (937)
We seem to be living in a time in the present Christian era where people seem to feel that all that matters in Christianity is love and God's grace, that obedience is simply legalism, and that people do not have to obey Bible commands for salvation (except, of course, for the command to believe...

Is the Politician Your Friend? -
Andy Carloff (36)

Danny Davids (19,741) 
Danny Davids
ABC has launched a new sitcom this season called "Cougar Town." I'd never watch the thing; based on the previews I already know the content isn't anything I would be interested in.
