Jeff Laird’s 7-Year Old Son Following in His Father’s Footsteps

September 19th, 2014
Jeff Laird 20 hrs Those little eyes aren't just watching, they're paying attention. A picture only we Got Questions writers will fully appreciate. He's seven, wrote the question, asked me for an answer, then wrote his version of what I said. He's set it up exactly the same way as my MS Word files, so he's been peeking over my shoulder. That he gets from me. Requiring the whole family to sign it, I blame on his formerly Catholic mother. UnlikeUnlike · Seen by 40 You, Elizabeth . . .

September 19th, 2014
Ed Chait August 17 I accidentally posted the following to my timeline instead of here. The day of corporate fasting and prayer that we shared recently was quite amazing.

Question and Answer on Proof of God / Reasons to Believe

September 15th, 2014

Hate it because one feels the colossal pressure of being either a stepping stone aiding someone's submission to Christ, or a stumbling block that turns them away. Wouldn't take the world in exchange for these opportunities, though. His question and my answer below (might take a few separate comments to fit). UnlikeUnlike · Seen . . .

On Rudistids (fossils of clams)

September 15th, 2014
Steve Ray Webb September 13 at 11:54pm What are Rudistids? They are a class of long extinct clams. Their form is bizarre in that most of them look more like corals, depending on the type of rudist (and there are many types). Why have I taken a fancy to them? A combination of reasons: 1) where I once lived they were easy to find on fossil hunting expeditions, 2) they make attractive specimens adorning my collection, 3) they are quite important to the oil business in terms of age-dating and in recognizing depositional . . .
