Wait. I think I figured it out. I have to go back to formatted text mode first, then hit the preview button.

I used that button before, and it worked. But that was when the reply field was not bbcode mode. I think I even switched to bbcode mode in one of those replies. Now when I start a reply, it starts in bbcode mode, I can’t switch to formatted text mode, and the button to preview doesn’t do anything.

Another request. When I switched to BB code edit mode, now I don’t have a preview option prior to posting. Is that available?

This seems like something that ought to be done regularly by the court—to clean up old and poorly reasoned precedents. The problem will lie in cleaning up the old and well reasoned ones, which a left-leaning court will be wont to do.

That was an interesting and informative article. It confirms my belief that 1. Jesus descent into hell is not in scripture, and 2. That doctrine was appended to the creed at a fairly late date, nor was it mentioned by the early church fathers. It certainly refutes your claim:

The lady doth protest too much, methinks.

No heaven yet????

It’s in the verse you quoted. 1 Peter 3:19-20 (KJV) 19 By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison; 20 Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by...

Fantastic! Thanks. Was that a site-wide change, or was it specific to me?

Is there a multi-quote option, either for whole posts or for parts of posts? I’m on another zen-foro forum that has that, and it’s useful.

Hi Lon. Did you lose your other account? Derf

If that’s the case, then Jesus only seems to have preached to those that died in the flood. What do you think He said to them? And What about all those Old Testament saints? Didn’t Jesus have anything to say to them? And you think they were dead???? The three apostles didn’t think that. They...

I never went back to this to respond. Sorry about that. Did Jesus preach to the dead? That’s the most popular narrative these days. I’m just trying to determine if it’s an accurate narrative. Or is it more in keeping with other scripture that the dead can’t hear anything: Ecclesiastes 9:5...

Hi Sherman . I feel like the thread, https://theologyonline.com/forum/politics-religion-and-the-rest/religion/exclusively-christian-theology/2732006-death-and-how-to-comfort-the-family, had a lot of potential. The two main views were indeed evoking bickering, but both were bringing out relevant...

A good friend's wife passed away last year. The phrase I heard most during the funeral as the attendees, including her surviving spouse, was some form of "She's in a better place now." She was a believer, so I don't think the phrase was forced, but I've been wondering how valid that phrase is...

Ok, I fixed it so it doesn't say "you are your surroundings". Happy? :mmph:

Not true. Our sense of sight tells us that things are going past us--the sun and moon and stars. You've chosen to interpret that as the sun, moon, and stars moving past your sight, but that's a choice you made--a frame of reference. Just like if you were on a moving sidewalk, there's little to...

Sorry. Didn't notice the link had changed. Corrected now.

One more thing on this--I haven't looked into all the possible models of a flat earth. The one that is most prevalent in the FE videos, where the sun and moon circle around a wobbling (for seasonal variations) center point at a fixed distance above the earth's flat surface, does NOT allow the...
