I'm not trying to idolize the athlete, only defend the honor of people of African descent that were not honored by the photo chosen by the Los Angeles Times.

I'm not going to post the photo of Kobe Bryant in question. Martin Luther (the German Monk) his role was spiritual warfare, like the Apostle Paul. But since Martin Luther's name came up, the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr's, "I Have a Dream," speech was the one that highlighted his life. He...

Basketball is not violent. That's the whole point. To depict an African - American basketball player deliberately in a violent looking photo, when basketball is not a violent sport, demeans all people of African descent. Violence was perpetrated by the Los Angeles Times, not the sport of...

Stop dishonoring people in this forum. It is a Christian forum.

That dishonors his memory, his gifts and talents and you know it.

It's just a test of faith. Those numbers show up all the time. I'm drinking ONE Corona beer to share the faith of the Israelites and show solidarity with Mexico and their Christian faith, including the miraculous grace of Our Lady of Guadalupe, which I remember from the Catholic hospital nuns...

I think you may not be understanding the issue. It isn't about the photo's of the crash, but about the choice of photo's of the athlete himself. One honored his career as an athlete soaring with a basketball, and the other dishonored people of African heritage, regardless of Kobe Bryant's life...

As I said, it would not be respectful to show the photo again, and may violate copyrights since it will likely involve legal action. It would be similar if someone published a photo of a peaceful native person, like the nice native folks who live around here, as an angry warrior with a spear...

I honor your opinion blue ladybug, but we may not be talking about the same photo. I don't believe it is right, or possibly allowed, to show a controversial copyrighted photo, and if I believe that the photo dishonors people of African descent, or native descent, it would not be right to show...

I'm sorry to hear of the loss of your friend. The choice of photo's can have an impact on how the public sees a person, and photo's can be used either in a positive way, or negative way. I was not familiar with Mr. Bryant's life, other than his basketball career. I enjoy the sport of...

My beloved mother enjoying a Foster's Australian beer back in the 1990's - A victory beer of an international lady who had a gift of international and family relations having been raised Canadian, and married into America, and was a friend of Princess Grace of Monaco, as I recall, possibly...

I didn't think of that. But there's still plenty of gas. And the power comes from a 12 volt battery which can be charged by a solar power array. But could someone else possibly post some info on solar 12 volt systems? They sell them here but are expensive. Very useful for wilderness cabins...

I was able to finally read the news story. I'm saddened to hear of the crash that took the lives of 9 people including Kobe's daughter. I live in a remote area and have been sleeping in my car at times, please forgive my delayed responses. But, the photo in question on the cover of the LA...

This is a good summary of wine in the Bible. One pastor said that fermentation was not allowed in the old Judaic scriptures in the temple, which he used to defend his view that wine was not fermented in temple ritual, and Jesus meant, "fruit of the vine," to mean fruit juice. It would be...

I find your avatar disturbing and unacceptable for Christian chat, as well as your dialog. I have reported you. If you are not here with malicious intent, which I find difficult to believe, change your avatar immediately before you make another post, and keep in mind that this is a Christian...

Speaking of frogs, even though this is a serious topic, in an environmental class once, which I didn't finish, I remember reading and hearing from the college professor, who was a very good one, that frogs are like the canary in the coal mine when it comes to the environment. What happens to...

Thanks for posting, I will try to view the link later tonight.

Thank you Angela53510 for posting this and your research and experience. This is calling us all to believe in God's healing, with or without medical help. We should never turn away medical help that has proven to help with healing. I think divine healing is given in baby steps sometimes. And...
