  1. The link says "Page not found".

     

    In any event, nothing has changed. Jeb Bush is too liberal even for many of those who voted for his brother. He also has the baggage of the "Bush" name, which right now isn't a good thing. Even Hillary has had to deal with the baggage of the "Clinton" name but she has deep connections and unless some bright new star rises, Hillary stands a good chance of broad Dem support. Bush doesn't have that going for him. Whether for right or wrong reasons, many in America, and in the Republican Party, have had enough of anyone named Bush. GW was president recently enough for many voters to remember and he took a beating from the media and Dem machine during his last term and it was speaking against him that helped get Obama elected twice.

     

    Were Jeb to run the Dems and media would really turn up the heat, pull out all those same GW attacks and paint Jeb with them. On top of the that, the conservative wing of the Repub Party wants nothing to do with Jeb and neither do many of the "moderates".

     

    The Republicans need to put forth a candidate clearly, even starkly different than Hillary. Running liberal leaning Republicans won't win the White House for the Republicans, but it will make it easier for the Dems.

     

     

    Lets try this one... :frog:

  3. If you can get this man to run, you will have the support of the Hispanics,Blacks,Whites,and the tea party. Will lose the Gay movement, and the Labor Unions, but who cares? Get this man to run for President in 2016 and will have a good chance to get the Whitehispanicbackhouse back.

  4. I tried to post in the "will Hillary run" thread and it wouldn't go through. I tried several times, and when using the "reply" button it would send me to the home page when I clicked to post.

     

    I also tried to send a message to Swathdiver and kept getting the "action failed" notice.

  5. Whatever happened to dictionaries? You shouldn't trust spell checkers anyways. :frog:

    Ode to the Spell Checker

    Eye halve a spelling chequer
    It came with my pea sea
    It plainly marques four my revue
    Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.

    Eye strike a key and type a word
    And weight four it two say
    Weather eye am wrong oar write
    It shows me strait a weigh.

    As soon as a mist ache is maid
    It nose bee fore two long
    And eye can put the error rite
    Its rare lea ever wrong.

    Eye have run this poem threw it
    I am shore your pleased two no
    It's letter perfect awl the weigh
    My chequer tolled me so.

     

     

     

    Hey that's mine....   :frog:  

  6. Depends how the church is set up.  If it's non-incorporated, then the pastor is considered the "owner".... then I suppose "legally" he could close the church, take the money, and start a new one elsewhere.   It's been done, although it ruins people in the process, since this isn't a godly thing to do.   However it's risky to have a church set up like this because the pastor is also liable for any debts or things that go wrong with the church, I think.    

     

    However every church should have something in their bylaws or constitution to deal with this.

     

    If the church is incorporated, then the money belongs to the church (I think that's how it works) and the church decides what to do with any extra after all debts have been paid.  I can't see that being an issue though, since most churches probably close because there IS no money.  Which is why they close.

     

    Some of them merge, too, in which case the money would go in a pot with the merging church's money.

     

    Thanks, do the Southern Baptist have this set up this way, I was told the church can be sold for 1 Dollar, to a church that is of the same faith or growing. Just pretty much handed down.

  7. Back to the bylaws, most are set up with the church deciding to close, merge, re-incorporate, et.al.

    If the church chooses to remain and the pastor takes the bank account (or portion thereof) without the approval of "body" as set forth in said bylaws then he is in violation of the same.



    Lets say old members did not agree with the new pastor, and left. The church fall short on the bills. Now, the pastor wants a new beginning else where. Can he sell and do what he pleases. Independent Baptist church
