Re: New Project Shows Church Finance Corruption

That is what is truly despicable. The Zimbabwe president was asking for help with water— just WATER! For God’s sake, when the lds leader told him “we are not a wealthy people.” Bullshiit. The water emergency hasn’t improved in that country in decades. Meanwhile, donating a couple of days of just th...

Re: New Project Shows Church Finance Corruption

And then what's really disheartening is to see page 12. Such a disproportionate amount of church growth from lower-income regions, for like a generation or more. Has the church ever spent its money to support growth in those poorer regions? No, it doesn't. The church crimps every region's budgets t...

Re: The distance between Christianity and the 4 Gospels

I came across this statement, and thought it rather insightful: "People don't leave Christianity because they stop believing in the teachings of Jesus. People leave the Christian Church because they believe in the teachings of Jesus so much, they can't stomach being part of an institution that clai...

Re: ?Re: Grab Bag (No Politics or Religion!)

Has anybody heard of the Sikh's Nagar Kirtan festival? It is annually held in my home town in Northern California, except for last year, when it was cancelled due to the pandemic. It returned this year Nov 5, and it is reportedly the world's largest Sikh festival. People come from all over the worl...

Re: Huge Win for Biden Today

Thanks for the explanations folks. So when he needs to be satirical, he does it by referring to the murder of millions, 'cos I mean that's really the kind of thing to help a guy get a belly-laugh. https://c.tenor.com/B6ybXduOGc0AAAAM/vomiting-yaks.gif I think Cultellus can stay on ignore. Yes, not ...

Re: Huge Win for Biden Today

I have not followed this thread in detail, but this bit sounds truly strange. The claim, I gather, is that Cultellus called another poster a Holocaust Denier, either in so many words or by claiming that they had effectively denied that about 6 million members of the various Jewish communities in Eu...

Re: Huge Win for Biden Today

By all means, post your resume. :roll: or a resume. Or some pretend resume. Or whatever type of resume your little imaginary mind would like to make up. :D please include a paragraph justifying your obsession with randomly accusing people of being holocaust deniers. That will be entertaining enough...

Re: Huge Win for Biden Today

Wow I must be new, because I really don't understand the meaning of your insistence that people are holocaust deniers when there has been zero discussion of that. Unless, of course, my first instinct was correct, which is that you are irrational and overly emotional, and fall back on those position...

Re: New Jersey - 83% Reported at 2AM R+.55%

Oh honey. You need some help. Whoever is denying the holocaust in your imaginary world isn't really there. Try to get your news from credible sources. No sugar, no, no no no no. Don't tell me that this forum is not the real world. I thought that what we had was real. You can't just say it is not re...
