Peculiar Sayings in the Bible
by Navigator inone of the problems in understanding the bible is the use of "idoms".
the word idiom comes from the greek word "idioma" which means peculiarity or peculiar phraseology.
scholars have estimated that there are more than 1000 idioms used in the bible.

A Political Consideration For You
by Francois ini'm sure you've heard tom daschel, al gore, richard gephardt and other prominent democrats wheezing and moaning about talk radio.
you can bet your boots that within the next 12 to 14 months, the democrat party is going to attempt to reinact some form of the old "fairness doctrine" which said that if you allowed one political point of view to be aired on your radio or tv station, that you had to provide equal time for the expression of the opposing point of view.
i was employed in the radio/tv bidness during the years of the "fairness doctrine" and i can tell you the objective was never fairness.

Spousal Abuse Thoughts
by DakotaRed ini have been having an ongoing discussion with a friend about spousal abuse.
she has come to accept and believe that i have never hit a woman in my life, but feels that i am a rarity.
i contend that i am not, that although too many men still hit their wives, they are in the minority.

Annoited: Not all their family examples so goo...
by WingCommander inwhile i have nothing against the ones that i knew of that were annoited, i found their family examples a little troubling.
i'm sure die hard jw's will respond that this is because satan is tormenting them, much as he did to job.
:( while that might be true, i also found that most ran their families like nazi's, and much of their problems were their own fault!!
