Did Youth Pastor's Healing Technique Include The Molestation Laying On Of Hands?
In condemning an alleged consumerism that prompts many contemporary Christians to quest for a church that answers a longing that sometimes isn’t necessarily doctrinal or even liturgical, can’t that criticism also be an attempt on the part of church leaders to justify their own second-rate service or product?
In commenting on the weakness of the contemporary church, home school activist Kevin Swanson ridiculed the propensity of some to gravitate towards megachurches. But other than pewfilling, what other ministry opportunities are available in smaller churches with so little turnover that the same handful hold what few positions that there are decade after decade?

Must One Believe In Hell To Avoid Going There?
Kennedy Offspring Continue The Family's Tradition Of Debauchery & Whoremongery

In an attempt at outreach, a church has decided it will go with all White greeters. How is that really appreciably worse than Southern Baptists so obsessed with minority outreach that the Convention’s current president was selected largely because he’s Black and the numerous ministries in that association now shoving their noses up the backsides of certain ethnicities?

And what do you think the impact of Calvinism is on the soul and the psyche of an individual that has the terror and horrors of EVERLASTING HELLFIRE beaten into their minds and then they are told there is not a SINGLE SOLITARY THING, not even a decision that can be made to avoid an ETERNITY IN THE ABYSS OF DAMNATION!

Fanatic Homeschooler Equates Longterm Nursing Care With Euthanasia
Instead, the truly pious individual takes care of such family members in their own home.
Those advocating this variety of stridency would then turn around and pitch a fit at those that would then not be able to afford to send their children to private school or be able to dedicate enough time to the pedagogy of the offspring with most of the attention going to address the increasingly complex health issues faced by the particular parent slipping into dementia or disability.
Secondly, if women are to be denied higher education as the Swansonites have suggested from time to time, how are these wives suppose to acquire this variety of expertise?
Thirdly, if the infirm needing around the clock nursing attention are suppose to be cared for in the homes of their children, what is to happen when the health of these frontline caretakers (who do not necessarily derive the same kind of endorphin high certain medical professionals seem to experience in these sorts of situations) find their own health compromised to the extent that they can neither oversee the wellbeing of their offspring nor their aging parents?
Leftwing Religionists Guilt-Trip The Gullible Into Enthusiastically Embracing Starvation

Headline reads that the swimmer that swam from Florida to Cuba vomited constantly. So do some with gallbladder disease, but you don't see them getting a media pity party. No one forced her to swim there. Is not like she was fleeing Castro's dictatorship. And why was she allowed to do this when the average American cannot travel to that island via more modernized modes of transportation?
A New Republic cover story points out that the public school system has failed non-conformist children. Does that mean students bored out of their wits because they possess a greater intellectual acuity than what the pedagogy is aimed at? Or is this code for urchins that need a swift smack on the backside because they aren’t going to listen to anyone telling them to sit still?

Best To Avoid Syria Entanglement
However, beyond a stern verbal condemnation, is it all that wise for the United States to get involved at this point?
Do we really know for certain who is the responsible party?
This conflict is not Star Wars or Lord of The Rings with clearly discernible protagonists and adversaries.
Either side could be capable of doing such a thing.
On the one hand, you have a brutal dictatorship. On the other side, the so-called “freedom fighters” have been accused of cannibalism and granting of a religious dispensation allowing for the raping of women caught up in the conflict.
Most importantly, if the Obama Administration decides to get involved militarily, does the President have the resolve to do what must be done?
For example, what if a campaign to eliminate Syrian weapons of mass destruction is conducted half-heartedly in the manner in which the President undertakes so many of his policy initiatives and America returns home before the task is completed?
Since whoever is responsible has no qualms about about killing their own people systematically and in the most horrible manners imaginable, what would prevent them from doing so to the people of the United States?
The border is pretty much a siv and, if Assad is indeed responsible as Obama is insisting to the civilized world, the President has already announced his intentions to allow that particular Middle Eastern tyrant to remain in power where the ensconced despot can plot revenge at leisure.
