Tony: Back to Music before Stan and Gene get into a Shin Kicking contest you started with hate words like "Liberal and SBC", I enjoy Allison Krause. In the car, I play Spanish Music loud with the windows down at red lights. Since starting the Walkabout you have written three articles so keep walking.

Interesting. Not the article: the way Stan linked my article to TWO of yours.
My article about MUSIC also.

Christopher: They did not misinterpret. The message is clear. This is a playful bunch of folks who are as lost as a ball in high weeds. See the Clown Logo.
OOPs, I am on the wrong article. Senior moment. See you next article.

At least Kaitlin has visible proof. It is easy for everyone to claim gay. The military draft proved that. And there was a movie about two guys needing to be classified as such. Good subject: "Pop America".

I think every writer needs to hurry up and do a Homosexual article before the subject is overdone. After 400 actors and entertainers surprise me with their orientation, I may get bored. I am 70 and fewer people of any orientation find me attractive.

Just visiting to show support for you as a writer. I guess you know allot of gay folks. I know a few. The statement ...when they never hurt you.. needs developing. The gays I know are average people capable of doing the same stupid stuff everyone does which involves hurting others at times. I like your variety of subjects.

Last comment. There is a street in Charleston, S.C. that divides the Haves from the Have Everthings. I think a serious religious article separates you from your buddies.
You have a large number of well educated readers who do not comment. Over and out.

I belong to a 150 year old Conservative Baptist Church and taught Sunday School for a year. The Minister of Education was hard pressed to find teachers with pure baptist backgrounds, would follow the lesson guides and knew anything about SBC. I doubt the 30 year old singles I taught would not read long religious articles on BNC.

We Baptist are not a herd of morons following a Judas goat. Nobody I know cares what the SBC is doing. Maybe they influence Seminaries or who? I am not on a cruel path of deception. Baptist are autonomous. Each Church is independent.

Clear the rubble-- I am back. Not here to debate. Here to ask a serious question about Conferences. Do not care specifically about the SBC. I know Baptist churches are autonomous. What is the practical use for Conferences? How do they effect or affect me a layman? Maybe you need to write an article.

Store Front Churches. Some small congregations are renting areas the size of barber shops in strip shopping centers.

Expectation Management. Many laymen, including myself, get into financial trouble and get disappointed when left in the ditch. (Good Samaritan Story). The Church is not Wells Fargo.

I am about to sign CHURCH BUSINESS and post. I will then leave theology to others.
Expectation Management prevents Legal Actions and Church Splits.

Weight x 10. If you weigh 240 lbs then 2400 is all you can eat today.

Prisoners have Love on one set of knuckles and Hate on the other.
Hits from both are painful. I forgot who told me. Gone BCN surfing.

Sorry. Just passing through. I was following the Latest Comments Section to find some new Commentors.

Only Protestant were given land. I guess because the Scot Protestants were given land in Northern Ireland and immediately began the TROUBLES. When the Northern Irish Scots (Scot Irish) and Scots came to the South they were unhappy with Catholics.
Some French Protestants arrived in SC.

It is not against to law to preach. A little 7 year old JW knocked on my door and preached to me and I complimented him. He smiled and left with his mentor.

Face the music is a phrase started in China when the Emperor executed all the fake singers and musicians put in a local band to impress him with size. After the performance he had each artist perform solo.

Keep an open mind and people will throw trash in it. A double minded man is unstable in all his ways. I am no longer talking about Liberals in my articles because certain folks start Shin Kicking. That is on YouTube. Important sport in England & Canada.
I may write an article about Self Help books.

My self help library says the personality shown to your mama is not the same as the one in Rio Vista Restaurant. I think one book listed 9 separate normal personalities used in a week. Is your new icon about an identity crisis?

A business phrase is CALL THE QUESTION which means end the discussion and make a decision. I hereby CALL THE QUESTION and ask, "What do you believe?"
Heaven is not based on Liberal or Moderate so what is the answer?
Last time I will ask.
Commented: Monday, June 1st, 2015 @ 8:08 am By: Ted McDonald
My layman's definition: A Conservative Baptists believes in the Virgin Birth and that the Bible is sufficient for instruction. Jesus lived a sinless life exchanged on the cross for our sins. I am a Moderate and believe in One God who can do what he pleases and the Bible is sufficient. No concern with details. What do you believe?

Gs Ra: Great comments. You know I am going to plagiarize. Better yet, I may just cut and paste. Thanks. I will remember you when I am famous. Remember not pay.

Stan: As a writer for BCN, I need to know. Who is at risk, the publisher or the writer. I send an article to one person, the Editor. He sends it to 20,000.
I gave you an EDIT AT Will statement. Who needs to be careful?

OK GS. What is the definition of a religious conservative?
Commented: Sunday, May 31st, 2015 @ 6:52 pm By: Ted McDonald
GS and I produced a PDF eBook last year about 10 Questions for Protestants. It is somewhat similar to the 300 Questions for Catholics. Although I do not always follow the logic, I do know how to stack PDFs into a book. I hope GS posts a number of articles that can become a PDF book. How serious is that?

Stan: You need to find Gene some Seminary Professors to comment.
I am not joking. I do not understand deep religious conversations.
And honestly, I do not understand deep political conversations.
I am impressed with what ever Bobby Tony said. I forget and don't want to re read.

The SMU baseball team lost their best two pitchers to academic problems. The team was not any good anyway but the coach told the only pitcher remaining to "throw what you know" which was a fast ball. They lost not by much and the drunken fans never noticed a problem. This advice works in any situation, including preaching and writing.

I think GS is doing a good autobio here and it could be a conversational grenade.
Sooner or later you have to state what you believe. You are then open for personal attack. Attacking protestant denominations or the Bible has been a waste of time for 2015 years. Stan is right--throw what you know. That is a baseball story I can tell.

Stan and I need a definition of Religious Moderate. Let's start with the average guy. Maybe one paragraph in English. I will help kick start by saying the NC Snake Handlers prove their faith. I would like concrete definitions not abstract.
Actions and not words alone.
