Welcome to IO, Thomas. Nice to have you aboard! :D

"Crossing a Bitch" (It's not what you think) ;) When Snajay was around 2, one of his favorite toys were these oversize building blocks he had received for Christmas. He'd spend hours and hours constructing these massive towers and whenever we came for a visit, he'd expect me to help him build...

"The Wisdom of Snajay" A series of random short stories and anecdotes, chronicling the crazy, hilarious and often profound things our Grandnephew, Snajay (that's his nickname... don't ask), said and did when he was a kid. First up: "But God Made All That Stuff" Snajay was rather outspoken at...

Dear TV Network execs, I can hear about the latest plan to increase spending and taxes on the evening news. Please stop chopping off the end of my favorite daytime soap to announce it!!! :mad:

As was explained when you made the same assertion on another thread months ago, Jesus recited Psalms 22 while dying on the cross. That which foreshadowed his suffering 1000 years prior in the Old Testament. In other words, look, it's happening, prophecy fulfilled! Even in utter agony, Jesus...

Reminds me of my niece's husband when asked about his faith... "I'm halfway between Christian and Catholic" o_O Lots of different ideas where religion is concerned, I suppose.

Well, I believe there is but one God. However like yourself, I do not believe all that is written is God's inspired word, nor every translation or interpretation necessarily accurate. I don't know of any that use that exact phrasing, no. I believe Jesus is unique in that regard, fulfilling a...

When read correctly, not cherry picked or maligned, I believe the Bible to be the inspired word of God, but not necessarily the only inspired word and that God knows exactly where each individual's heart is, regardless of the teachings they follow.

I don't believe it's a matter of, if this is true, than this other thing must be false. I think it's much more nuanced than that. From my own personal perspective, I believe all 3 are possible, dependent on one's works. Many Hindus for instance believe one goes through several stages of...

Our local PBS affiliate is begging for money again, so it's nothing but pledge programming this weekend. Just spent 2 hours with Buddy Guy. Good Lord can he make that strat cry and sing! :cool:

Anyone afraid of or not interested in interfaith discussion, shouldn't even be here, IMO. Faith is the operative word for me. Faith and belief in God. How you go about expressing that belief however, is an individual thing. We all see the world through our own eyes and I've long held, though we...

As do most of us. Thing is, the same truth appears differently when viewed from different perspectives. To paraphrase the father of one of our late members when asked the same question, to folks on the roadside, passing cars are a blur, but to the folks in those cars, those on the roadside are a...

Welcome aboard! :)

One of the Grandnephews in New Zealand dressed the part for the festivities! :)

Few pics from last nights festivities.

Not a lot of tech data yet, but just studying the promo pics, it appears to have an aftermarket VW type torsion bar front suspension setup and some sort of independent arrangement out back. So, the chassis makeup appears to be a combo of new and old. According to the article I linked to, it's...

Hey look, the Meyers Manx Dune Buggy is back and it's electric! https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/news/meyers-manx-2-0-electric-dune-buggy-debut/

Thanks, wish I could take full credit, but it's just a remix loop I found and punched up a bit! :p

Darn dolls, stole my car again! :D

I tell you, having experienced it, unless you are born to such culture, the site of a loved one set ablaze can be quite disturbing. Especially as in my wife's tradition, where the eldest son is charged with lighting it. Then there's the next day ritual when they gather again to clean the area...
