God Bless, Protect and Watch Over Texas AND The USA! I feel blessed and gifted to be an American.

A question to everyone, What do you do if a robber tries to kill your parents? Hold out your arms & say "Love, not kill?"? as the robber pulls the trigger? Some are too literal. Do I make some sense?

I'll add this to what you say - How can there be a day of zero work to exclusively worship? To elaborate, here are a few brief examples - Changing a babies diaper is work, taking your dog out to be pee is "work", so is cleaning the tub after a bath. ETC., ETC. Those are things that must be done, even on a Holy day of rest. I know this is awfully bare bones literal but this is what I wonder.

I wasn't criticizing. Yes, I am new here but not to online discussions in general. Sorry if I offended anyone. Shalom, You are a Newbie here and you just need time to get to know "us folks" before you criticize us. By the way: Proverbs 27 17Iron sharpens iron, and one man sharpens another.

I'm no newbie to discussion forums. I was just making observations.

The thing is that if all 20 million where made legal, America would be bombarded endlessly with foreigners wanting free citizen ship WITHOUT the responsibilities that comes with being a U.S. citizen. Kindness often gets taken advantage of by people with ill intentions. Sometimes, kindness can be a weakness when it's not tampered with reason & common sense. I'm not meaning to seem rude nor harsh, but reality has a way of throwing wrenches into human kindness & compassion. Life has taught me that kindness & compassion is honorable, just & the right thing to do, as long as you keep your brain about you!

God Bless, Protect & Watch over America! God Bless, Protect & Watch America's citizens too! Amen.

LOL!

Sheesh! You folks sure enjoy tit for tatting! Think how much time that's wasted arguing could be spent to help & love others... The way some religious people act, we'ed spend every waking moment praying!

I understand now. Thank you for the clarification Vickilynn, it's very much appreciated. God bless you & yours.

Why does Vicky spell God as "G-D" instead of "God"? I'm not being picky, I just don't understand what the difference, if any, is.

Vickilynn, Why do you spell God as G-D?

The way are bodies are made conflict with some of these " rock solid" rules. Take beef for example, we have certain teeth designed to rip & tear meat but we also have teeth designed to chew fruits & vegetables. If one stayed in chruch or any holy place every single minute of every hour & day, our minds & bodies would rot away.

How does one be good without striving for perfection?

I feel any place can be a church when good people gather together to Pray. I'm bed ridden & have no way to goto church BUT!, I feel my home can be a church on not just Sunday, but any day.
