I've never read or seen anyone use cardamom in lure making, it surprises me a bit. Cardamom is warm, spicy, and sweet, with complex notes of citrus (lemon), mint and eucalyptus, plus earthy, woody, and balsamic undertones, creating an invigorating, aromatic, and slightly camphorous aroma. Does anyone know why cardamom is so little used/described in lure making?

Seth....... God may exist. But if he does, he's barred some of the best people on this earth I've ever met from his Kingdom. How in the world am I supposed to worship a diety that would do that? You can say they have free will, and their lack of faith is their damnation, and you may be right, but a simple lack of faith sentencing someone to an eternity of misery? Naw.... I can't worship any God that would do that. That is a vindictive God, not a kind God.....

I have a large project that must be completed and in the mail by the 31st. Since I work exclusively at home, I will work next week on the 22nd and 23rd for no more than a couple hours each day. No work on the 24th or 25th. Beginning on the 26th I will work 2-4 hours per day until the project is completed and in the mail by the 31st.
On the 24th i will cook and bake something good. Lobster tails and scallops sautéed in garlic butter make a nice dinner for Christmas Eve. Not sure what to make for Christmas Day.

Keith i believe the answe lies in the free will thing. In my reasoning saying you give someone free will to chose what they want but only giving them good choices to chose from is like giving multiple choice questions but making all the choices true. Its not really free will. Its a falsehood because you are controlling the outcome. … I think you’re missing the point… a pit of fire was created to burn his children that he knew would be skeptical and die agnostic… good people mind you … besides you’re likely bound for damnation yourself unless you’re healing the sick .. taking up rattlesnakes and drinking cyanide … oh yeah … and performing exorcisms BTW, Regarding Mark chapter 16, most translations of the bible will contain verses 9 to the end of the chapter with a footnote at the bottom of chapter 16. I think this may be the only place in the bible where such a thing occurs. I imagine the only reason that these verses aren't just omitted from bibles being printed today is because people are so used to these verses being in the KJV that they have just decided to let them be; but along with a caveat. [The earliest manuscripts and some other ancient witnesses do not have verses 9–20.] 9 When Jesus rose early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had driven seven demons. 10 She went and told those who had been with him and who were mourning and weeping. 11 When they heard that Jesus was alive and that she had seen him, they did not believe it. 12 Afterward Jesus appeared in a different form to two of them while they were walking in the country. 13 These returned and reported it to the rest; but they did not believe them either. 14 Later Jesus appeared to the Eleven as they were eating; he rebuked them for their lack of faith and their stubborn refusal to believe those who had seen him after he had risen. 15 He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. 16 Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned. 17 And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; 18 they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well.”19 After the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, he was taken up into heaven and he sat at the right hand of God. 20 Then the disciples went out and preached everywhere, and the Lord worked with them and confirmed his word by the signs that accompanied it.

Savell To you first point about why your people that had Christianity forced upon them would care about Christianity, I missed were you asked that question despite going back through this whole post again but if i would have seen it i would have responded that since you start this thread with a question about Christianity you could probably answer that question yourself. You cared or you wouldn't have asked. Why you cared is only know by you. Unless you asked the question without caring about an answer which would lead me to ask what was your motive for the question?
Second point is he can only create what is within his nature. Perfect and Just are part of his nature and true freewill without sin seems by nature impossible.
Paradise was perfection, the tree with forbidden fruit was sin and the human was freewill. Beyond that I'm without answers unless you can ask more direct questions that could lead me to better clarification. Or if you clarify to me how you think you could truly have free will without the possibility of bad choices.

Savell my point is there cant be freewill without sin and Justice without consequences. And being Just is a nature of God. All the pieces need to be there to create the whole thing. And you must take into account the whole picture to be able to understand how each part works. Which seeing the whole picture and truly understanding each piece is above our pay scale so to speak. I have tried my best to answer your questions and address your points as best as I can but haven't heard you or Keith addres my point about whether there truly can be freewill without sin (bad choices). But couldn't God just not make the people that go wrong, knowing they will go wrong. There would be less suffering if he did that. It seems cruel to create something to suffer externally. That's the act of a sadist, not a kind and loving God. Keith My opinion is that isnt truly freewill if your controlling the outcome before hand

Apparently blue stands out really well to animals that see in black and white I heard it explained once, but can't remember the reasoning. That's why you don't want to wear light colored blue jeans while hunting. I suppose a blue bucket/pipe sticks out well for a coyote; add a little lure and so much the better.

Here's my gauge. I wonder if anywhere between the 185 & 210° line is fine That gauge is just a fancy idiot light. If you were to watch engine coolant temp on a scan tool, you'd see that the temp shown on the gauge is only loosely related to the actual coolant temp. Manufacturers do that because the coolant temp can swing between 205-225(ish) with the cycling of the fans and most people would get nervous watching their gauge cycle back and forth if it showed actual coolant temp. I haven't seen any proof of that being an issue. It could be true, but ever since I started watching my temp gauge last year, I haven't had an issue. I wait to turn the heater on until the truck is at proper operating temperature. Granted I do other things too now, such as using a block heater, parking in a garage & sometimes taking the long way home. It's amazing how much the heater/defroster effects the coolant temperature. In the rare situation now where my temperature gauge doesn't reach optimal temperature well before I get to work, I put on a ~couple extra miles before stopping. Watching the temp gauge was perhaps the best advice the dealer gave me.

No ...that's akin to when i tell my dogs to sit ,I expect them to sit. As they should've. I don't care if a pigeon parades before them, they should 'sit'. A command is a command.

My opinion is you catch coyotes by their nose not there eyes. Eye appeal is a tricky thing with coyotes, it can cause refusals as easy as attraction. The guy that made pvc popular with coyote trapping has made the point many times he puts the pvc in enough cover the pipe itself cant be seen. There a reason for that. Again my opinion is there's a time and place for eye appeal but I think its a smaller piece of the pie than several other things. If its just about getting them to see it, hang some sort of flagging above your set they can see movement better than anything.

Apparently its called "fuel dilution". ![[Linked Image]](https://trapperman.com/forum/attachments/usergals/2025/12/full-24446-279075-fuel.jpg) Exactly And yes, running it hot burns it off. I've learned a lot since last years nightmare. It's going ok this year, but the remedy is a pain. Hopefully others on here can read this thread & not have to learn the hard way. Letting the vehicle warm up idling though would not help my problem. We had that debate at the dealership. That's what the service advisor told me to do. The service manager & a worker there told me do not make a habit of letting it idle more than say 30 seconds before taking off. People that drive enough don't need to worry about this problem. I'm the rare situation--driving <4k miles per year. The manufacturers don't design them nowadays for short trippers like me. Maybe getting a diesel would have been a solution. That's 1 idea I hadn't considered.

… the Jews deny Jesus was God just like the Muslims… yet Christians like them … none of it makes much sense to me from the jump … much less all the bickering between the different sects of Christianity … I think the only ones going to heaven are maybe the snake handlers .. but even they fall short of drinking poison .. Jim jones and company excluded of course You're a bird dog chasing it's tail , bro. Go back to it's roots.
