I'm not a fan of engineers. I especially don't prefer to socialize with them. Even working with them is frequently aggravating. The stereotype of the socially inept engineer is just too close to the truth. » read more »

Greetings,

This was sent in by an FCET member. It is "quite alarming" indeed and
relates to Oprah's "new gospel". You should be aware. I would encourage
you to pass this on to others, because huge numbers are evidently being
swept away by it. And it leads straight to hell.

There is also other literature out there concerning this and it is well
defended: Eg.

The die is cast. Really, it was cast when Microsoft released Vista, though I did not know it at the time. It wasn't long before I started reading about Vista, and negative impressions began to form. » read more »

TuscanyCircle is back again. We went offline for registered users (anything that used SSL for access) for over an hour due to a mistake by my hosting service. All should be well now. Let me know if you see anything not working fully, though.

I started this article to explore the effects of widespread illiteracy on our once-American culture. As you see below, I made several points about how we'll be adversely affected, only to discover these effects are already present.

I would dare say our peak as a culture and in literacy was probably two hundred years ago. » read more »

http://freethejefferson1.wordp... chronicles the plight of a "freedom dancer" apparently arrested for--well, for nothing, really. You really have to read it to believe it. I'm sure there's another side to this, but I have hard to imagining it's markedly different than the account at this link. Check it out.

We're not to tolerate stupidity and foolishness. How are these juxtaposed with patience? Proverbs 19:11 clearly says patience is a good thing, as does Galatians 5:22. Isn't being patient just the opposite of intolerance of folly? If Scripture does not contradict itself (an axiom), how, then, are we to resolve these two commands which superficially appear to contradict each other? I think the answer lies in loving the sinner while hating the sin. » read more »

We are responsible for our own actions. Apparently, this is a concept rather foreign to many people. I thought jotting down a few supporting verses may be helpful. After all, if we are willing servants of the Lord, then His Word is to be obeyed. » read more »

Thank you, Dr. Richard Booker for your wonderful support of Israel. And thank you, Stan Goodenough, for remaining true to the Word of God and standing with Israel. With a few notable exceptions like Richard and Stan, all the world hates Israel. As a shining example, the French Ambassador in England says "Israel is nothing but a #*&*# little country." (Nice potty mouth, Frenchy.) Despite having 1/1000th of the world's population, Israel has had great accomplishments we all enjoy: » read more »
