Being a lay person regarding statutes, I do not understand this ruling. Some states allowed same sex marriage, some did not. What prompted the SCOTUS to weigh in and overturn the states right to regulate their marriage laws? I am more concerned about that abuse, IMO, of power than I am in same sex marriage.

In my understanding, the OT lays the foundation for the incarnation of the Son of God. The Hebrew writings establish the law and records the failure of man to live by them in God's favor. Therefore, a savior is needed. Jesus Christ came to become sin and die as the propitiation for man's sin. His resurrection demonstrates the atonement for man and therefore the path to eternal life. It is God's gift, given by His grace, to those willing to accept it. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant.

Just tagging on at the end, thinking about how the yacht manufacturers and the Mercedes Benz dealers are going to profit from sales to civil attorneys. I'll bet the orders are starting already. Think about all the law suits from tormented gays who have been refused some service from clever straight business owners. You just know some folks are going to test the ruling. The transformation of America has been a boon to the lawyers. Meanwhile, up in the north GA mountains, life goes on. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

9 African Americans shot in a church in Charleston SC

I never liked being called a skydiver. I consider myself a sport parachutist similar to a military parachutist. I generally refer to myself as a former parachutist. Sometimes I use conservative Christian, far right-wing conservative Christian, Redneck, patriotic American or plain ol' vanilla Christian, a sinner saved by grace. I wanted to use the term Christian Parachutists Association in 1987 but the name was taken. Further, Mike Lewis spoke the Christian Skydivers Association into existence when we were being interviewed on a local Christian TV show. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

Another "moral failure" from organized religion
RonD1120 replied to kallend's topic in Speakers Corner
I have often said that churches should remain small and localized to their community. If the members reach 250 and growing, start another church. They should be manageable families not large corporations. IMO Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant.

You've used the Romans quote many times. Whenever I've asked you what that means for people resisting against tyrannical governments you've never answered, you've only dodged. Feel free to put the record straight though - who was obeying God's authority under the Quisling and Vichy governments, collaborators or resistance fighters? If you choose not to though, your position is clear. I know this is going down the rabbit hole. People living in fear will band together and do whatever they think is appropriate to survive. I do not know nor do I think history provides an accurate analysis of each of those social types you mentioned. When, where and how often they attended a church is insignificant to their need to survive. Only God knows which ones were actually Christian. That is whether they had accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. Regardless of what you and other heathens think, Christianity is not a social classification. At least in my mind and experience, it is a term reserved only for those individuals who have been Born Again. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

It doesn't, and you know it doesn't. It does come from people who call university researchers and professors 'ivory tower intellectuals' who aren't in touch like Joe the Plumber is - as if they somehow don't live in the real world like everyone else. As if they somehow don't have to deal with mortgage payments, car loans, health insurance and school districts just like everyone else. As if the job of creating and conveying knowledge in their chosen field leaves no room left in their brains for understanding everyday life the way a good ol' blue collar working guy, or business owner, or CEO, or really anyone but an academic or liberal politician does. It's a prejudice that has real consequences. Yep, it illuminates truth. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant.

The five fundamentals of Christian fundamentalism 1. Inerrancy of the Bible. 2. Literal truth of the Bible. 3. The virgin birth and divinity of Jesus Christ. Fundamentalists hold this against encroaching materialism which denies the supernatural. 4. The doctrine of atonement through substitution, a Calvinist doctrinal innovation according to which Christ inserts his own perfect record, in place of ours, into the divine retributive mechanism. This fundamental is held in opposition to the early Church's "ransom" and "moral uplift" theories of atonement. 5. The bodily resurrection of Jesus and the imminent personal return of Jesus Christ. This is a critical building block for Christian fundamentalist movements that deny responsibility for global warming, since the end of the world is near. http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Fundamentalist_Christianity To the above I add, you must be "Born Again." It is that experience that binds us together. Not all who call themselves Christian are actually Born Again. Those folks only have a religious belief.

The writer is such a good liberal. All of our problems are because of those damned fundamentalist Christians. Yep, us against them, one has to totally defeat the other. Yessiree, we are headed for the BIG SUPER BOWL. I am a fundamental Christian and a hyper-patriot. I was raised to believe the latter and I learned to accept, adopt and adapt to the former. And, until we learn to pull together, I'm talking about Americans, we are going to live the same base lives as the rest of the world, or worse. It doesn't look good.

Sociopathy is not a mental illness and neither is psychopathology. Both types can be very rational in their thought processes. They just do not care how their behavior affects others.
