Re: Ditched at the Altar for Being Baptist
If people can't compromise on religious issues, perhaps the person who can't compromise is too rigid in his thinking to have a successful marriage.

Re: Going to Vegas in December!
My favorite hotels were Bellagio and Caesar's Palace. Just walking through them there is a lot to see.

Re: Ditched at the Altar for Being Baptist
People who do this often wonder why, years later, that they are still single. Too many scriptural issues with various potential partners. Then before they know it, their biological clock has ticked away and/or many chances are gone. I knew a woman who threw away her one chance at marriage, with a m...

Re: C of C ranking of sins
I hope that youth minister has a son who is gay and accidentally walks in in his son and his boy friend butt nekkid in the act one mounted on the other. Stuff like this happens. Many conservative Christians find out their son or daughter is gay or bisexual. They are going to have to come to terms w...

Re: Spies?
Yes, we had spies but I called them busybodies or gossips. But spies might be a better word.

Churches of Christ - graying instead of growing
h**p://churchofchristarticles.com/blog/administrator/graying-instead-of-growing/ I'm not sure when this was written but the author talks about how from 2000 to 2018, there were 1,047 C of C congregations that "ceased to exist." Author says the problem is that people just invite others to v...

Re: Spies?
Someone saw I had posted something bad on my page. That's why facebook has a "block" feature. It really comes in handy. As for spying, yes, I know of this going on. My BIL's sister was going through a divorce. It was very important to her C of C parents, that they know for sure that her d...

Re: C of C ranking of sins
I never heard a sermon about jacking off either. Then you weren’t paying attention. On another site someone posted a picture of a billboard. It’s a picture of Jesus frowning and it says.....”You can’t hold hands with Jesus while masturbating.” : Was this posted in seriousness or was it a joke?

Re: Charity story/question
The only thing I can add here is that my parents, when I was growing up, did not donate to any charities or do any volunteer work (except church work). I realize now it was part of the influence of their religion, C of C. They also said they didn't donate to charities because they paid taxes for the...
