I don't read stuff from progressive secular humanists.  My dad was a secular humanist from the 30s before he was saved.  It is the same stuff that is taught in our universities today but much worse.  Add progressive to it all and you have Marxism ala Saul Alinsky, community organizers and social unrest.  They just want to stir up fear and rebellion.  They use anything that presents itself to keep the public stirred up.  They want us to distrust the police, our government, medical community, and any authority so they can overthrow our republic.  

What is a progressive secular humanists.?

Oh your dad?

Your talking Real Communist, not just calling someone that, they Really are Communist.

Informed people read both sides of the news and think for themselves, Uninformed people follow the spin of the MSM, which is propaganda, and are incapable of discovering the truth. 

Having read enough Brietbart articles in the past, I have found that place to be the opposite of informed. And the somewhat common refrain of people being incapable of discovering the truth. It's our new gnosticism.

Oh your dad?

Belief in Deity. Not considered important. Most Humanists are atheists or agnostics. 
Origin of Universe and Life. The scientific method is most respected as the means for revealing the mysteries of the origins of the universe and life. 
After DeathAn afterlife or spiritual existence after death is not recognized. 
Why Evil?  No concept of “evil.” Reasons for wrongdoing are explored through scientific methods, e.g. through study of sociology, psychology, criminology. 
SalvationNo concept of afterlife or spiritual liberation or salvation. Realizing ones personal potential and working for the betterment of humanity through ethical consciousness and social works are considered paramount, but from a naturalistic rather than supernatural standpoint. 
Contemporary Issues The American Humanist Association endorses elective abortion. Other contemporary views include working for equality for homosexuals, gender equality, a secular approach to divorce and remarriage, working to end poverty, promoting peace and nonviolence, and environmental protection. 

In a word, they are anti God and anti Christian and are out to destroy Christianity.  As an activist in the atheist community, and a Progressive Secular Humanist, Michael is committed to the notion that religious superstition, and belief in the supernatural, represents an existential threat of profound and urgent dimension that cannot, and must not, be ignored.

About snake handlers.... have you ever heard "The Rattlesnake Story" by Wendy Bagwell?  It's hilarious!  lol  

Well yes, of course.  Anything you do, should never be in the line of thought that "Well G-d will save me".

You shouldn't drive your car into a wall, because "G-d can save me".  Can he?  Yes.  But you should never tempt G-d.

That would include snake handling, or refusing treatment for an illness, or jumping out of a plane without a parachute.

I remember reading years ago, that a guy jumped out of a plane, found his parachute hadn't been packed right or something, and he had nothing.   He smashed the ground, bounced twice.... someone apparently witnessed it.  And he lived.  Full recovery.

Does that mean you say "G-d will protect me!" and jump out of a plane without a parachute?  No.  You don't tempt the Lord G-d.

And you don't do that with this illness.   You don't run to the nearest covid patient, and split a turkey club with them, because "G-d will protect me.".

Does that mean we all hide in our basement until we are so depressed we all commit suicide because we're going to spend our lives in fear of Covid?   No.  I don't think so.

But it also doesn't mean you flaunt it, and parade around without reasonable precautions either.

Well I will tell you what is said then so you don't have to read it.  So basically. There were some churches in the Bible belt. Who ignored the warnings of social distancing and avoiding large gatherings. Well now, many of these church leaders have fallen sick and died of Covid. I think it said more than 30 church leaders and pastors have died.

Well I suppose I could look and see if I can find this story from another site. Since the site I got it from seems to have upset some people.  Anymore it is like walking on eggshells around here.  Well I will go look around see what I can find.

Okay I found this story on a few different sites and I do not know which ones will offend some people and which ones will not. I just posted what I thought would be a story of interest to our Christian community. Well anyway, here is the story from the "Independent"  from the UK I think. If this sites offends you as well just move on and don't read the dang thing then. (sigh):blink:

It's too bad those pastors didn't use commonsense.   Yes, God can protect us but He doesn't expect us to deliberately put ourselves in harm's way.

No movie is Unedited.

They have a whole department of Editors.

 

It is a misuse of the word unedited.

You are misunderstanding exactly what I'm referring to, brother. I'm speaking in the terms of "on-the-air" movies, that being televised ones. Of course those are always edited. You're speaking of "post edit" of completed film projects. Sure, they are edited down to accommodate time sequences and content quality as well. "aired" movies meaning ones shown on TV, are also edited accordingly. And they are censored according to the ratings. G-PG-R-etc. All this including the commercial sponsors who pay for the broadcasted televised presentations. 

However, films shown on TCM = Turner Classics Movie channel are run free of time sequence constraint elements and without the interruption of commercials. Meaning, unedited and commercial free. I believe that should adequately explain my post and what it means. Simply stated, no edits - no commercials. These are uncensored and shown in their entirety. Are there any other further explains necessary here? I'm an audio/visual tech. I seriously doubt having this being my retired former employment from the profession there have been any misused terminologies.
