+1. They've put out some good study tools over the years.

Assuming you mean Omega-3 fish oil pills, yes, I've used them for years as part of my vitamin regime. They have numerous health benefits.

I once heard a phrase, "there is nothing to do, but do it." I think this is true of fitness. Once you get active, you will see the results, which will make you be more active, which produces more results, which....well, you see my point. A healthy diet, a good vitamin regime, quality sleep...

That's a great way to be immersed in God's Word. I used to work alone at a remote location and listened to the Bible and sermons via the Internet and cassette. I miss all that "input."

Nope, don't mind at all. :D You mentioned study on the PC. That sure is an effective way to study! I started with Bible software in the 80s (much clunkier then), but still use it to this day. eSword is a good one should anyone be looking for an application to study with. God bless.

I am sure most of use using many different versions for study, but I thought I'd take an informal poll to see what versions are most used for primary study. As we're only allowed ten options, I tried to pick the more common English translations. Also, I'm not trying to leave out non-English...

Yes, yes indeed.

Moving on  agreed. Okalee dokaley, neighbhoreno. :P

Thanks for the link. I shall listen to it shortly.

Actually, I found when you said the so-called "true successors (e.g. the Papacy), and their decisions on such matters are binding on all Christians. Period." simply beyond arrogant and insulting. Surely you knew that would be at least inflammatory to members of the Orthodox community or...

I meant the word specifically, but whatever. One could say some of the arrogance above would meet the same definition of trolling. I'm familiar with the term. I was once RC myself. I'm a little surprised it is even used anymore; at least in it's historical sense. I was hoping we could...

A very archaic one perhaps. No offense intended and the rule noted. Out of curiousity, where is this posted? I don't see a reference in the rules.

The split between East and West and the Reformation both occurred before Trent, so neither the Orthodox nor Protestant faiths have any concern for such Popish machinations. Arrogance is unbecoming. As far as I am concerned, this conversation is over.

Hyperbole, therefore..yawn. We both know the unique reasons behind the debate over the Deuterocanonicals/Apocrypha. I have a Russian Orthodox friend who thinks it is scandalous that the RCC removed a few books contained in the Septuagint from the Bible. So, I suppose it depends on where we...

A couple more links that may be interesting to the OP. Holman Bible Dictionary: http://www.studylight.org/dic/hbd/view.cgi?number=T379 Easton's Bible Dictionary definition: http://eastonsbibledictionary.com/a/apocrypha.htm

Oh, I don't know. There are parts of the Pacific Northwest that it seems like it rains for 1,000 years. :-D

I wouldn't eat McDonald's food (or any fast food) if you paid me, so it's a non-issue as far as I'm concerned. :P However, I think Christians who are concerned about our culture would do well to support the boycott: http://boycottmcdonalds.com/

Thank you for proving my point. That is, there has be a debate on these texts long before the Reformation. I might also point out that the Eastern Orthodox and Oriental Orthodox faiths include texts in their canon excluded by the RCC.

The inclusion or exclusion of said texts has been disputed throughout church history.
