Dan, I do recognize your right to believe that way. I even respect your right to have a different theology as mine and still consider you someone whom I like.

People don't have to think the same way to like and respect each other. Right now, there are some who won't post to me or treat me civil who I considered my friends because I used my right as a human being to change my mind on a few concepts in the Bible.

In the end, if we happen to be the generation, when Jesus splits the sky it will be such an overwhelming event that people will not be thinking or wondering what happens next. There priorities at the moment will be to praise God or try to hide in the rocks from him.

We might suffer loss of status because we were intolerant of a Catholic, or a Methodist or because we snubbed a person who was not a Christian and did not tell him about the Son of God because that person was living in sin and we were too caught up in our traditions to give him our attention.

I hope that you are doing well.

James

the only thing i can say about abortion is that i pity any woman who has had one.

if that makes me patronizing in that regard, then so be it.

i also pity women who went ahead and had children; children, some or all of which such women never emphatically wished to have.

we need to really ask the women how many children they should want. and if a woman says, 'none,' then we should believe her and leave it at that.

many men - whether they will admit it or not - take a great satisfaction in 'marking' a woman through the act of procreation.

this is great when the woman is willing; but look around at all of the abuse which occurs in families; obviously some of these mothers were - on some level - not entirely 'ok' with their own part in procreation.
