My wife received a message from a relative asking her to watch a program her relative had recorded on Daystar.Strike 1, am I right?We did a little quick research and I was disgusted to learn that Joni Lamb is promoting a documentary by disgraced former doctor Andrew Wakefield. Wakefield was the doctor who originally claimed a link between autism and the MMR vaccine, based on a study of
My wife has a cousin who is also promoting anti vaccine. But I don’t pay her much attention. She actually believes the earth is flat.Recently I asked my Dr. about vaccine, he said he still believes in it. I trust him over a dumb cousin________________Recorded Sermons @ http://www.pastorwiley.com
Also, my apologies if my tone in the OP was over the top. This topic gets me really stirred up, although that is no excuse to be overly animated. I don’t know if it was over the top or not, just wanted to cover my bases.
You are among family. Be as animated as you like. This is a good topic________________
I stumble upon their channel once in a while but never stop long enough to get a feel for what they’re about________________“Hell will be filled with people that didn’t cuss, didn’t drink, and may even have been baptized. Why? Because none of those things makes someone a Christian.”
Always got my kids the vaccines.I – however – did not get a lot of vaccines – due to COG upbringing that didn’t believe in them.Thus I actually contracted measles and mumps (still had 4 kids – thank God). I may or may not have had chicken pox (mild case).So – I am in favor of vaccines. Why risk it? Chance of damage from vaccines is so low comparatively. Unless of course they cause cancer (who knows). Perhaps we can ask Joni________________
You’ve been on a roll these last few days, NBF.Indeed, like any medical procedure, vaccines carry a risk. But one is ten times more likely to be struck by lightning than to have any kind of adverse reaction to a vaccine.
That is something else, man. My understanding is that this is based pretty much solely on interpretations of the Bible. The sun is supposed to be 40 miles wide, and it gets dark at night because it is only over a certain portion of the land. I have been meaning to ask a flat earther how they explain the international space station or the sattelites we use for our cell phones. They may say less dense stuff doesn’t fall if it goes up high enough. Or I suppose they could theorize that sattelites can get tacked onto the dome up there somehow. They believe the moon landing was a hoax. On that one, I am certainly open to the idea. There was so much propaganda warfare going on during the Cold War, rocket technology and missile technology are basically the same thing, it would have been a lot cheaper to fool the world into believing in the moon landing than actually doing it, and the moon is so much farther away than anything we’ve been to. If they were going to lie about stuff in the Cold War, given that as the basic assumption, wouldn’t it have been stupid to actually spend all that money and really have gone to the moon instead of just pretending to do it? They might have, or they might have tried and given up. A lot of new technology did come out of going to the moon, or acting like we did, or trying to________________

Flat earth theories are actually pretty well developed, even though they are full of pseudoscience. They’ve got an answer for pretty much everything. Some friends at work and I have read a decent amount of flat earth material because we like to occasionally try to turn conversations into flat earth advocacy or screeds against the rounders. Yeah, we’re pretty dumb, but you guys probably already knew that.Most flat earth advocates play the hoax card for satellites, the ISS, etc. and claim that cell phones and GPS just work through normal cell/radio towers. I’ve seen some people try to say that satellites are just suspended above the plane, but it seems most flat earth folks reject that since it conflicts with other parts of their model.
Yeah, the main argument against that (like any large-scale conspiracy) is the absolute humongous number of people who would have to keep the secret. Because it wasn’t just the one landing, it was 6 (supposed to be 7 of course) over a period of three years, plus the three years of mission development leading up to that. That’s just not how people work, there’s no way all of those people would or even could keep a conspiracy secret.
The images of earth sent back in the 60s could not have been faked with 60s technology.Plus – there are now images that can be seen with our latest telescopes of the previous landings.Pretty overwhelming imho________________
I have always suspected that you missed the vaccine that prevents, um, er, doofiness (see what I did there?). Of course, there was already plenty of evidence without you admitting your shortcomings. Along with being wrong more times than even a random selection would show, you also are a die-hard Gator fan. If that doesn’t indicate severe brain-damage, I don’t know what does.I figure it’s too late for you to get the vaccine by now. So, unfortunately, we are stuck with you like this.
NBF, have you talked to your PCP about vaccines? There may be several that you can still get for diseases you haven’t had, and they may be very helpful to you when/if your body starts to decline in old age.
since the sun and moon are obviously circular, we must be on a flat circle like a coin. The people who disappear must just fall off the ides.Am I biting on FAKE NEWS or are there actually folk who declare the earth is flat. ________________Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/
