I'm reading the article on AoM about "Rediscovering the Barber Shop", and as much as I like that idea, I have a few concerns. The article, specifically the section on "Why Every Man Should Go to a…Continue

Mitchell Willie replied to LShieldes's discussion Tipping in the group The Great Debate"In my (apparently unpopular) opinion, all tips are optional, and dependent on good service. I never feel obligated to tip unless I'm pleased with a service; that's why it's called a gratuity."
Mitchell Willie replied to Native Son's discussion "Christian math vs. Arabic Math" in the group Christian Men"I suppose "Christian Math" gets to invent its own numerals."
Mitchell Willie replied to Josh's discussion Poor people are lazy! in the group The Great Debate"As someone who's poor enough to be envious of the situation the "challenge" puts the user in, I find it to be partially inaccurate, and wholly exploitative. I understand that these people are trying to "help", but it mostly…"
Mitchell Willie replied to D.J.'s discussion Reverse-sexism in the group The Great Debate"My friend once saw a feminist club at our local uni having a bake sale fundraiser. He was laughing too hard to take a picture, and none of them understood why."
Mitchell Willie replied to D.J.'s discussion Reverse-sexism in the group The Great Debate"...I tried to think of a witty response, but I'm too busy snickering."
Joseph Victor Newman replied to Mitchell Willie's discussion Manly Tea Service. in the group The Manly Cup of Tea"I have one of those (though the inner filter part broke due to my own clumsiness) and LOVE it. The Golden Lotus one was the best so far. Absolutely delicious. I can go look at mine and find the manufacturers website if you want."
Mitchell Willie replied to Mitchell Willie's discussion Manly Tea Service. in the group The Manly Cup of Tea"Great links! Thanks!"
Joseph Victor Newman replied to Mitchell Willie's discussion Manly Tea Service. in the group The Manly Cup of Tea"Look at (if you have them nearby) Bed Bath & Beyond for the Flowering Tea gift set. Other wise look online for it. It is a simple glass pot with no decoration to get in the way and a bunch of teas that are made of whole leaves and are tied…"
"Mitchell,
Not sure if you want a ceramic type teapot or something else. We have a tetsubin and love it. Nothing says manly like cast iron, IMO. :) They are not cheap but are so worth every penny you spend. …"
Mitchell Willie replied to D.J.'s discussion Why should we do the right thing? in the group The Great Debate"I have a strange viewpoint on "right."
While I believe that right is always right, that there are universal rights and wrongs, and they can be (mostly) objectively measured, I do believe that each individual situation merits a…"
Mitchell Willie replied to D.J.'s discussion Why should we do the right thing? in the group The Great Debate"Dr. Stanley, though I've never met him personally, has done a great deal to shape my views on both my world, and my faith. "
Mitchell Willie replied to D.J.'s discussion Why should we do the right thing? in the group The Great Debate"Because it is right."
Mitchell Willie replied to Jacob Bauer's discussion I don't know where to stand on this... in the group The Great Debate"As silly as I find the emo haircuts, the accusations against them are similar in scope (though the price is far more extreme) to the ones goth kids had in the Bible Belt. As much as I may hate the style, I'm gonna side with this being wrong."

Philippians 3:12-14
Amplified Bible (AMP)
12Not that I have now attained [this ideal], or have already been made perfect, but I press on to lay hold of (grasp) and make my own, that for which Christ Jesus (the Messiah) has laid hold of me and made me His own.
13I do not consider, brethren, that I have captured and made it my own [yet]; but one thing I do [it is my one aspiration]: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead,
14I press on toward the goal to win the [supreme and heavenly] prize to which God in Christ Jesus is calling us upward.
There is a New year Ahead. It is an open page for you to write the rest of your Life.
Defeated People look at what they are going through...Sucessful people look at where they are going to. Don't let the hurts, and failures of the past determine your future. The only person who determines your future is yourself.
Each morning is a new day. Do not let what has happened to you in the Past determine the rest of your life. God's mercy is renewed every morning...I have had many failures in life but I have never been a failure. You are only a failure when you Quit, throw in the towel and admit defeat.
YOU ARE SOMEBODY IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD. NO MORE VICTIMS, FORGET IT AND LET IT GO! NOW WALK INTO THE NEW DAY...GOD BLESS YOU....My young friend I was submitting this to you to see if something like this would be acceptable for gentlemen ecumenists...It is meant to encourage not cause confussion...which is the last thing I should want to do...Dan

- Hello Mitchell. Welcome to AoM. Also, thought I'd also give you a friendly invite to check out my new group The Great Debate. It's the one with the colorful galaxy picture. It's also the most active group on AoM at the moment. In any case, great to have you aboard.
