  • I am not sure about that last statistic Mrs. Beecham. If the internet contained so much misinformation then people would not be able to trust what the read on news sites that spread the word of Christ. I think a little faith will help a believer wade through and untruths that might be out there.

      Ice, like reading the scripture statistics require some learned interpretation.

      Sure there are people that might approach a statistic like “54% is the average score for Americans taking a financial knowledge survey” as a negative. When we consider that 23% are illiterate and 50% have below average intelligence, then we would expect 73% of Americans to perform below 50%, but they don’t. If 73% of Americans performed less than 50% the average would be about 27%, but it is two times better! I’m actually feeling very positive about these numbers.

      I think that this ‘index’ illustrates how statistics are presented can mislead people that aren’t accustomed to dealing with numbers, unfortunately less than 50% can understand.

      “71% of Americans fail a civic literacy test with a score below 49%. This drops to 44% for civic leaders.”

      I think this says that the midterm elections are bringing new ideas to our civic government and 71% of Americans have a different vision for government than the liberal idea of government.

      Most liberals won’t be able to see beyond their own bias to correctly translate these statistics.

    I have just noticed this box on the right side of this site – comments from ‘Twitter’, whatever that heathen thing is. The remarks are all critical of this mainstream Christian site. Is there any way we can suppress these comments or report them to the FBI. These folks need their wings clipped.

            Claire just because you have multiple accounts and multiple personalities and are probably 1/3 of the posters on christwires comments section does not mean that everyone engages in this act.

            Blanche, I enjoy your articles and fellowship (sistership)

            Claire. You are rude and insulting. But once I get passed your unchristian vulgarity you make me laugh. Your comments are indicative of a depraved soul, but they still make me laugh at times.

            Shannon. I see that you have a good heart. Recently a lot of posters and commentors agreed to keep our conversations more friendly. You are the only anti-christwire poster to do that.

    By the By Claire, I think someone that I really can’t name saw your mom giving ‘alms’ to the homeless again. I don’t know why ‘alms’ would result in oral lesions, but I think it is important you know even if others won’t say it to you.

        From: http://christwire.org/2011/07/what-schools-offer-the-best-veterinary-technician-program/#comment-123535

        “There is an opportunity this coming Saturday, July 23rd (very short notice), to assist a local veterinarian while he does exams, vaccines, and treatments for the pets homeless veterans. There is a large convention held at the Kootenai County Fairgrounds in Coeur d’Alene, ID where veterans can receive personal health and dental care along with many other services/supplies.
        The time is set for 8am- 2pm however any amount of time is very helpful. If you are interested please email me back and I will get you in touch with the veterinarian in charge.“

        When you post here Claire, spreading your hate and lies. People don’t volunteer for this event or attend. Your actions have real consequences.

          • That has nothing to do with typing – it has to do with August being too fucking stupid to know that those two sentences should be ONE, with a comma instead of a period. As I’ve said before, I find it nothing short of appalling that a forty-something-year-old American man born to English-speaking parents, who was educated at a large university and supposedly has four degrees, has such poor English skills.

        Really Claire, you banter like an ugly fat girl with no friends. You like me talking trash to you. I don’t like doing that, but it is the only way to get your attention sometimes.

        Listen, you know that other people aren’t as nice as I am. Some (who shall be nameless) are plotting to take over your role that you’ve worked on here at ChristWire for the past 4-5years. Not saying who, but I think you can tell.

        Look for the signs, butting in on your conversations and addressing the other regulars, talking about themselves and basically taking all the attention that used to be yours. They certainly would like to see you gone. Just saying it is something to think about.

        I’m done talking trash to you, you can do the “you whore” thing or whatever, but you need to think about what I’ve written above. I can’t change what has happened to you, but you’ve earned this position here. Better fight for it.

        Mostly because she has been here the longest and has secured her position at top dog (or should I say cat).

        I do wish that she would act in a more civilized fashion much like you have come to act Shannon.
