RE San Jose John: I am not going to waste time whiting out children's books, but I am going to be more careful when purchasing them in the future.

If I come across any I'll try to let you know.

I also once had an old paperback TEV Bible back in the 1970s when they called it "Good News for Modern Man", which had numerous stick-figures of Biblical Characters including Jesus mixed in with text on its pages. :/

Today I use ESV and other "Good News for ALL Men" Bibles, not just those geared for "Modern Men". Safer, I think.

Truth. I think they are right on the money. We are losing our youth because fathers are not fulfilling their God ordained role as shepherds of their own families.

I'm not a parent but it must be VERY tempting to just turn the whole job of educating your kid over to a school so you can get on with your own life's activities. Nothing wrong with this as long as the parents remains proactive and involved in the kid's daily progress, rather than be disconnected.

Two things.
1) The "wedge issue" has been brought up solely by the homosexual "community," and their friends. The opposition to redefining marriage would not exist if the "community" had not promoted it in the first place. Confusion in "The Nation"?
2) Historical account records this:
"Previously, on February 24, 2004, Bush called for an amendment which would have outlawed gay marriage, and which would have disallowed states from recognizing or enforcing gay civil unions."

Sure, if she starts becoming disobedient, you might find some causation or correlation, but why don't you encourage your sister, build her up like you should? I understand the warning, but again, unless she isn't bearing fruits of the spirit then there is no need for correction or such...

My original point was that as Christians we are to test the spirits to see if they are from God, which my sister, and so many like her today who foolishly pray words they don't understand nor ever seem to at least TRY to, never seem to do.

This could possible be true, pot smokers and peaceniks support Ron more than they do Obama.

"peaceniks" especially are unhappy with Obama's continued prosecution of the Afgan war, drone attacks, not closing Gitmo, etc.

Actually, it's her Democrat liberalism that compels her.

Call me cynical but I think this general failure on the part of our 8th-graders is more likely due simply to the fact that we allow our kids to pack so much fluff in their heads that there's precious room for anything else.

Maybe the ED should try to get the producers and casts of Glee and Jersey Shore to develop scripts where some of the actors get involved in a science project and actually "enjoy" it.

Tradition has it that Mary gave birth to the Lord at 13. At what age is one no longer a child?

Perhaps much of this is due to family fragmentation, and various causes thereof, in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.

When the government said let them consume contraception en masse (1960), what conservative made a peep?
When the government said let them divorce en masse (1970), what conservative made a peep?
When the government said let them abort en masse (1973), what conservative made a peep?
When the government said let them IVF en masse (1990s), what conservative made a peep?
But when the government finally says let them gay-marry en masse (2012), what conservative isn't making a peep?
Conservatives did nothing for 52 years while liberals changed the world. Now conservatives want to save Christian marriage at the 11th hour? It's too late for that.

Praying in tongues does not exist anymore you can see that Paul talks about people who speak in tongues are of Satan because they think the spirit is in them while they're at church to gain attention but you don't see them doing that at home. Or Do You?
