Hello Everybody My Name Is JAG
October 1, 2020 at 8:32 am
My name is JAG and thanks for having me as a forum member.

I enjoy politics, religion, philosophy, reading, good food, laughing,
and having a good time.

I try to keep at least "four books going all the time" just to keep
it interesting.

I am now reading "It's Getting Better All The Time: 100 Greatest
Trends Of The Last 100 Years" by Stephen Moore and Julian Simon,
published by the Cato Institute.

I am also reading "Abundance: The Future Is Better Than You Think"
by Peter H. Diamandis and Stephen Kotler.

_________

I am a cheerful, up-beat, up-ward mobile positive constructive
kind of guy. I believe America's best days are yet ahead.

I lean towards the Conservative side of the political spectrum,
but I am not a fanatic and I have no axes to grind.

Family Man: Wife, children, and grandchildren.

_________

Food: I love Filet Mignon, Salmon Steaks, and dead Chickens.

Music & Song: I love Andrea Bocelli and Pavarotti and Sarah Brightman,
and the Vienna Philharmonic.

_________




I am a Christian and I enjoy discussing Christianity with atheists.
My favorite Bible verses is the gospel in a nutshell John 3:16 "For 
God so loved the world that He Gave His one and only Son that 
whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have Eternal Life."

____________


Thanks again for the opportunity to be a member
of the Forum.

Best.


JAG

Welcome to the forum.

Woof.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

That seems to be every theist's favorite verse. Really speaks volumes of the indoctrination process.

Ahoy, Should be fun seeing you explain Exodus 21:20-21 (and others)

May FSM's light guide you here.

It is definitely a majority, not my personal favorite though
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post

Welcome!

We don't sound very dissimilar, except I lean more left, and I "used" to love that verse from John.
