If you don't like the weather today, just wait till tomorrow. Although a popular saying, it is unfortunately not a reality in many areas of the planet.

Religion & Spirituality > Religious Concepts (Other) What do you believe a true Christian is: 12 of 25
The cross is the dividing line of all things. Those who would presume to call themselves Christians should never forget that. There is a preponderance of ignorance in Christianity today, and much of that ignorance can be traced directly to a lack of understanding of the cross and what it meant.When Jesus died on that cross it...

Politics, News & Issues > Party Politics & Ideology What happened to the Reagan Republican?: 13 of 25
"Government is not the solution, government is the problem", this foundational belief of President Ronald Reagan is what guided his every political action.

Politics, News & Issues > Party Politics & Ideology Why democracy is or isn't the best method for every country: 28 of 50

If the true church of God is what scripture says it is...the body of Christ, is it an organization or and organism?If the church is an organization, then attending church, it would seem, would be the most important thing indeed. Most organizations have a material building for it's members to meet in. "Church" is what Christia... More..
Politics, News & Issues > Political Issues Should health insurance companies be "for profit"?: 5 of 8
The American public has been deluded into believing the false premise that the health care problem in this country is a result of those greedy "for profit" insurance companies.
