I relay my experiences and what I see because that is what God asks of me to serve His purpose. The typical reward for what I say is scoffing and harassment, so there is little incentive for me to lay it out there for the trampling. But I do have a hope that some here will seek God in sincerity and thereby come to know of the personal relationship with Him that I am referring to, the relationship that leads to eternal salvation. Back to Moshalito's earlier question about whether you, as employer, would hire uwisfan knowing his beliefs. It is unlikely that a person so thoroughly suffused would remain silent about his belief system. Spreading the true doctrine among coworkers and outside company contacts would be incredibly disruptive to the workplace (as opposed to incredibly entertaining on a message board). For that reason alone, I wouldn't hire him. If that were to invite a discrimination claim, so be it. The reality is, though, that any number of reasons can be given for not making the hire without touching on the heart of the matter. this is a good question and there is no doubt that my views cause disruption in the workplace. It is definitely part of the "counting the cost", that you will have to sacrifice the path of least resistance in business relationships in favor of trusting what God can accomplish instead. Fortunately, I dont recall applying for a job over the past 18 years. There were a couple of jobs in-between business ventures, but those came through word of mouth.

I'm so glad the powers-that-be --- probably not the best reference to use in a thread like this --- decided to ignore you way back on page 1. Yeah.... me too.... I'm really glad... at least this nonsense is off the main board.

Politicians using Sandy Hook as a way to create more division by starting to crack down on guns, much like has been done in other oppressive regimes throughout history. Angry backlash of gun owners bubbling, and if something happens to Obama, that would really provide leverage to take away guns. I thought we were out of the woods this year, but I think its worth following this. Obama to give a public speech tomorrow, so that would fit the bill of a public event.

No way it was a coincidence that Biden was sworn in first. It was also no coincidence that Sotomayor did the swearing. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Gentlemen, you can't fight in here!
