ReplyPeople who are complaining about someone who is using a snow blower too late at night or too early in the morning is just jealous that they dont have one. If the noise of the snow blower is bothering you, take a look, bet it is your neighbor doing your sidewalk or driveway as a kind act.

Prohobition was repealed in 1933.
So only a year after prohobition, not ten. -

Mr Tibbs - You wanted a response to the following:
Jim, i expect that you equally follow the other passages of Liviticus and the rest of the bible word for word, right?
I try to follow the word of the Lord as best as possible. (If your thinking of responding then why do I eat pork as someone else mentioned, again there are different type of laws. Think of it as in modern society we have civil and criminal laws - different types.) One must remember the Law is there to condemn, and salavation is found in the New Testament through faith. And yes the Bible is the word of the Lord.
Dont mean to sound "preachy" to you, just answering yoru question. -

Lee - you wrotet: The same ones who punished a minister for praying with other clergy because they were not Lutheran, at the interfaith service .....
Yes, the minister was called on the carpet for praying at the interfaith service, nothing new with the LCMS. Has nothing to do with the tragedy at Sandy Hook, or being gay.

Donna - No, actually I am not a fan of football, and yes do like bacon. Your refering to ceremoninal laws, not moral laws, There are three different types of laws - moral, ceremonial, and political. Discussion here was around moral law, Have a great day.

Anne - Take a look at what Paul has to say in 1st Corinthians, also take a look at Matthew Chapter 5. Remember Jesus came to fullfill the law, not abolish it or change it.

Immoral(adj)
not moral; inconsistent with rectitude, purity, or good morals; contrary to conscience or the divine law; wicked; unjust; dishonest; vicious; licentious; as, an immoral man; an immoral deedWe read in God’s Word the following statements about
homosexuality:
“You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; it is an
abomination. … Do not defile yourselves by any of these
things”(Lev.18:22,24).
“If a man lies with a male as with a woman,both of them
have committed an abomination…”(Lev.20:13)Through His Word,God teaches us very clearly that homosexuality
is a sin. A person who persists in homosexual
behavior stands under the condemnation of God’s Word.This
is true for anyone who persists in sin without repentance.
While this may be an unpopular message,it is the truth taught
to us by God in His Word.Lutheran Church Missouri Synod

ReplyActually Peggy probably quite a few more than you realize. They even walking around downtown Chicago. Saw one walking the NorthWestern tracks right outside the NorthWestern Station last Saturday.
Even so, no excuse for someone to be baiting and hunting them in their backyard, Thankfully it appears one of his missed shots never hit a home or someone,

Given the flight business from the area to Deer Park recently, doubt you find any high end business locating in the area. Best bet would be to move the County Police substation, and combine it with the State Police, along with an INS office to the site.
