    Perissos Resources along with Theologyweb.com are discussing co-hosting a large theology convention in Jacksonville, FL March 1-3, 2013. We want to center the event around 2 formally-formatted 3-hour debates on eschatology (end-time philosophy) and a benefit banquet with a well-known keynote speaker. We're also considering inviting several ministries to speak and raise awareness, hold book/media signings, and have several panel discussions. Some of you know we've done two small TWeb staff conventions in the past (2007, 2009), but we think it's time to do a much bigger event that will almost feel like TWeb, only in person.

    Our primary objective is to bring glory to God and see His kingdom advance. To that end, we want minister ...

    Honor and Shame, Part I
    What it is and why it's important


    When it comes to understanding how almost 100% of the ancient world and 70% of the present population1 think, and value, and view the world, one of the most integral and core values to start investigating is the concept of honor and shame. Honor and shame are so interwoven into the fabric of most of the world's cultures, including those shown in the Bible, that to stay ignorant of or simply to ignore it would be a fatal detriment to one's understanding of Scripture.

    Honor was so important that Greek historian and philosopher, Xenophon, in his work Hiero made it the sole distinction between humanity and the lower ...

    There is no evidence for a biblical jesus

    Thread Starter: bertatberts

    There is no evidence for a biblical jesus There may have been a man called jesus, just the same as there may have been a man called fred. it by no means make him divine! There is no contemporary evidence for Jesus. Much of the "evidence" cited is false, or suspect, or very late. Josephus is considered some of the best evidence - even though is is generally considered to be tampered with, if not an outright forgery (of course, the word used is "interpolated" - scholars avoid the...

    Oil Problems comin' round the mountain

    Thread Starter: grmorton

    As promised a couple of days ago on the Peak Oil Still Future Thread, I am starting this thread to discuss the science of petroleum and how it affects the science of economics. I have run into a couple of data points with regard to future production. "In 2008, 108 exploration and appraisal wells were drilled off the UK, similar to 2007 levels. "However, in 2009 only 34 wells have rig slots so far, according to Oil & Gas UK statistics." "It is therefore very concerning that, since...
