I have a co-worker who has ADHD without a learning disability and read in a book that this is rare, and that most people with ADHD have a learning disability. By the way, even though she don't have a learning disability, would she...

thefactsmith I am an adult with ADHD. This is a good question. Actually, the reason why ADHD is (by some) classified as a learning disability, is because typically people with ADHD struggle to operate and function in the same fashion as those without ADHD. They typically...

In the recent week or two I have developed a habit of checking Craigslist on a daily basis. I first started out looking at local events and groups, then found my way towards the personals. Now to ease some worries of my...

thefactsmith I love browsing craigslist! The only issue with the site that I personally have is, for the most part, is that people are daft as to what a competitive resale price is. I love seeing ads for obsolete electronics that 15 year old kids are trying to sell at list...

thefactsmith I would probably consider myself to be an evaluative listener, that is, if an evaluative listener is the same as an analytical listener. When I listen, I enjoy learning. So when someone is speaking, I try to ask questions so that I can better understand their...

thefactsmith This is a topic that my wife and I have discussed as well. The convictions of a Christian often sound strange when held in the light of the secular world. Regardless, if we feel convicted about something, it is always important to do just as you are doing and...

To forgive is to take the penalty of the offense off of the offender and to place it on yourself as if it were you that committed the offense. For example, If someone were to apologize to me for totaling my car in a car accident,...

thefactsmith I will see if I can find a copy in eBook form. Please excuse me while I speak. If my wording is flawed, I am doing my best. I appreciate that you keep your argument relevant to the topic. That is a skill. Before I can answer on your terms, I must know: is...

thefactsmith smilingjack, I have a book that I would really like to hear your rebuttal to. Not that I am looking to start some sort of debate at all. I truly enjoy a good conversation on ethics, religion, history, etc. It is a small book, and you are obviously a very...

thefactsmith Christ is God. And because our offense was against God, only God could forgive. So he did by coming to earth and never sinning. So Jesus was sinned against because Jesus is God. Therefor, Jesus offered forgiveness by taking the punishment that we deserved even...

thefactsmith LOL. Let me give it a shot, and tell me what you think. God gave Moses the 10 commandments. The 10 commandments were given by God to man for a few reasons. One of those reasons was to reveal man's guilt (not necessarily in emotional form). The law was given so...

thefactsmith We do not forgive to show that forgiveness is needed. Some sort of "observed law" is required for there for an offense to be tried. For instance, can you be given a speeding ticket if there is no such laws restricting the speed that you are allowed to drive?...
