Years ago, before I became a practicing Christian, I loved Star Trek: The Next Generation. I was never into the original or any of the ones to come after TNG, but they were OK. Since I saw the light, I now see programs like this with the blinders removed and they're just not really very...

I haven't seen the film, but it sounded interesting based on the WorldNetDaily review: http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=107159 He did complain about the language though. "The only thing "District 9" drips with more than gore is profanity. Though tempered by his heavy accent...

Your dates appear to have come from an Apple website or something. ;) Windows 7 was already RTM (released to manufacturing) July 22nd which means that Microsoft has finalized it and started shipping to OEM's like Dell and HP to do their last minute compatibility testing and building their...

So my wife and I enjoy travel and are open to visiting and possibly moving to someplace which demonstrates obedience to the Lord. We all know that something like 78% of Americans say they are Christian, but their actions and voting record indicates it's all talk and no heart. Still, the US is...

I'm excited about the capabilities of Windows 7 - not so much about its cost though. Microsoft only charges something like $22 for a Windows license to big companies like Dell and HP, but charges end users $200-320. That's just crazy, IMHO. Their pricing should be more fair if they want to...

Doesn't the commandment really translate as "do not murder" anyway? After all, if you're never supposed to kill, God wouldn't have contradicted himself by leading His people to war in the promised land. For example, when Jesus quotes them in Luke 18:20 it is translated as "do not murder."

I'm married already, but less than 2 years, so I think I still remember what I was looking for a few years ago. I had recently fully given my life over to Christ - not just as my savior, but as my Lord. I'd always known Christ was the son of God and died for our sins, but I didn't make him...

If that's your calling, then yes. http://www.reclaim7mountains.com/ Matthew 28:18 - ALL authority over heaven and EARTH is given to Christ. There is nothing on Earth - no mountain, no job, which does not belong to Him. We are called to exercise His power over all the Earth.

I've never in my life met anyone over the age of 12 who got the name of their own religion wrong.

I've been a happy Firefox user for probably around a year now. Whenever it was that 3.0 came out is when I finally gave it a try. I'm giving 3.5 another month or so to bake and get the bugs worked out before I upgrade. As for IE8, I let it install on my sons computer and it seems slower and...

One of the best things you can get from Proverbs is to seek wise counsel. If you feel firearm ownership is right for you, I would suggest searching for a local shooting range, not just a gun store. Here in Phoenix, AZ we've got a couple large shooting ranges which don't just sell guns, they...

Well God did say that it is not good for man to be alone. I wouldn't classify socializing as a want, I would personally say it's a need or even a responsibility. By taking time to socialize with other believers, we can help keep each other accountable to God's word and teachings, as well as...

Wow.. admittedly useful, but the fonts/colors/layout are a nice throwback to 1996. :)

I don't know of any scripture saying that it matters. There's plenty of scripture about how you should manage your money as well as scriptures about the roles of men and women, and the roles of husband and wife. We know that not everyone has exactly the same gifts, just as not every part of...

IMHO, guys who talk about sex within days of meeting a woman are very likely living for the flesh and not the spirit. If the topic came up by some kind of side conversation, or as a result of sex being a topic in you were studying together as part of a bible study or something, then OK, I could...
