    Modern Christianity

    Who is shopping? You say all churches are like this but my church is not. Hence my theory that maybe it would help if you got out and saw some more churches. If you think all churches are like that, apparently you haven't seen many of them. The lifeboat analogy does not hold up when you...

    You actually got it working on raspbian?!? !?!? ?? True story, and she doesn't know it wound up in this comic because her Wi-Fi hasn't worked in weeks.

    Modern Christianity

    You need to get out more and to visit a few other churches. There are some really good ones out there. Just for a reference point, which church do you go to?

    Modern Christianity

    This sounds an awful lot like you are saying every Church is rotten. This can't possibly be what you are really saying. Please tell me that is not what you are saying. But I am very curious to know what you are trying to say if you are not saying every Church is rotten.

    Lest we complain....

    Mind you, personally I think their descriptions are just biased. But moving down here could settle it finally, because if they describe the majority of churches in this area the same way, we definitely know what the problem is.

    Lest we complain....

    Or you could just move to the south. The people who are always complaining about the modern churches describe churches that are a lot different than most of the churches here in West tennessee. Either they are describing them wrong or the churches in West Tennessee are much better than the...

    TV censorship: the reprogamming and acceptance human suffering?

    Sure, you can say whatever you want. It's an open forum. Likewise, I can say whatever I want. Like making the observation that you have made up your mind and nothing is going to change it. You keep arguing with everybody. It is obvious that you have already decided what you choose to believe...

    can you guys post something funny please?

    Hmm... Ransom of Red Chief? Yes it was fictional, but I have to believe it has happened sometime in history before now.

    can you guys post something funny please?

    Or you could just spill some pickle juice on the floor... Sometimes at my job, the whole walk-in cooler smells overwhelmingly like pickles. Somebody bumped the pickle bucket again.

    New Christians friends

    Howdy and welcome to the forum. Patience, grasshopper. This is a forum, not a live chat room. People will start filtering in, usually in the evening American time, and doubtless reply to you. I'm only here right now because I am on lunch break. But I only have 2 minutes left, so I will catch...

    Is it OK to feel lonely?

    Yeah, my post wasn't really so much about the first post as it was about some of the replies. Some of them sounded like they could be either loneliness or boredom.

    Is it OK to feel lonely?

    Or... OR... It could just be boredom. Sometimes the two get confused. Both ways, actually - people can be lonely and think they are bored, and people can think they are bored and really be lonely. The first leads to turning up the volume on your activities until it drowns out your feelings and...

    Is it OK to feel lonely?

    Howdy and welcome to the forum. Everyone feels lonely sometimes, even people who are married to a good, loving spouse. (Ask me how I, a single guy, know about that.) What you do about it is what matters. How you choose to act on a feeling of loneliness will ultimately determine whether you are...

    can you guys post something funny please?

    If that happened to me on the church bus, I just put the bus in reverse, accelerated sharply, then braked hard. Door closed. Also the remaining kids on the bus got a kick out of it.

    The Windows Users Thread

    It is a show that specializes in mocking just everyone and everything it can find to make fun of. The Simpsons Family Guy King of the Hill South Park All four of these are about the same, in that they specialize in sarcasm and ridicule. And as such, they are very heavy on pop culture...

    1: Depends which church you are going to. None of this applies to my church. 2. That thing about Ezekiel 33 is specifically to Ezekiel. 3. Maybe you need to find a different church.

    Am I being unreasonable ?

    Sounds like you need professional help. And I don't mean a psychologist. My aunt w*rks at a nursing home, as activities director. Helping her with stuff, I've seen a lot of elderly people. In a situation like you describe, I'd get professional help from someone who has made it his job to deal...

    The Children Are Bleeding — And We’re Too Distracted to Notice

    As a single guy with no kids I don't personally have any skin in this game. But this does fit what I have observed from other people.
