Suggestions for the TOL Topic of the Day

[Lon]

1. Is it possible, as a Christian, to keep from having my hands bloody? Yes or no and why? How far must spiritual war go?

2. Is a pacifist the same as 'whimp' (or is there really such a thing as a pacifist)?

3. If I don't want to pull the trigger but somewhere give the 'order' am I still culpable (or better perhaps 'being responsible')? Can we avoid giving the order?

In light of the best sitcom, how about your favorite movie seen. Like this.

Jaws

Tomorrow: Which TOL member's movie would you pay to see?

Some other day: Has anything on TOL made you literally (if even 'inside') laugh or cry?

What do you think the consensus on the hot button issues of homosexuality and abortion if they had never been made socially acceptable/legal?

Should a permit be required to carry or own a gun?
or
Should anyone be able to own a gun?

If this has already been done, feel free to post a link for me.

Well, we have a permit already, the second amendment. But I am always up to the task of debating whether or not to repeal it.

More interesting is the right to sell your own stuff. The perverted evil government goes against what the Bible says about a man can do with his property as he chooses. They want to stop you from having a garage sale and selling books, art, music, etc etc.

Support this claim...

Suspenders vs a belt--you can't wear both (at least you shouldn't)!

Choose wisely...

Steampunk says otherwise.

How about a thread about rep? I don't think that's been covered enough.

Neg rep, pos rep, counting rep (yours or someone else's), dividing rep (yours or someone else's) caring about rep (yours or someone else's) not caring about rep (yours or someone else's)...

The possibilities are endless.

Is Barry Soetoro (B Hussein Obama) even an American, let alone natural born?

Why did George Romney go on a crusade to defeat the Equal Rights Amendment?

Loads of cities require permits to do those things, here is one of them, but you can google it and find many others:

Garage Sale Permits
City of Oklahoma City
Each household can have two garage sales a year with proper permits. (Previously, garage sales had to be spaced at least six months apart, but you may now hold them on consecutive weekends.) ....The maximum fine for conducting a sale without a license is $200 plus costs.

Permits for garage sales pale in comparison to substantive issues.

And yet I can sell my own property in other ways without a permit, anytime I want.

So, the question is, why limit garage sales?

How about alternative presidential candidates?

Good idea. We could always title the thread as "How to waste your time and your vote while secretly supporting Obama."
