You seem to imply there is something wrong if a babykilling abortion mill is burned or bomb. Which do you prefer, a pile of bricks or a pile of dead babies? Innocent unborn babies deserve to be protected just as born children deserve to be protected. You would have no problem protecting born children if they were about to be murdered.
SAY THIS PRAYER: Dear Jesus, I am a sinner and am headed to eternal hell because of my sins. I believe you died on the cross to take away my sins and to take me to heaven. Jesus, I ask you now to come into my heart and take away my sins and give me eternal life.
I was an atheist for many years, until I EXPERIENCED CHRIST JESUS!
In my opinion, attempting to convince an atheist of the existence of God and how wonderful He is, is analogous to attempting to convince someone who has never experienced an orgasm, that it really does exist, and how wonderful it is! Although, the orgasm is very temporary, God is forever Wonderful!
have fully visualized the stom and the universe with no “nothingness” anywhere, no empty space in either—-its been a lifetime effort but I am finally there–and absolutely delighted to share with all others looking for something to replace all the silly nothing——long retired Physicist and Systems Engineer L. Frank Morgan—it mostly all posted at my website—I have no interest in opinions or populism when it comes to physics—
I whole hartedly agree. The architect Richard Gages’ pseudoscientific deluge of misinformation is typical of the absurd ideas put forward by the 9/11 ‘truth’ movement. Real scientists rarely speak of the truth until they have spent enough time and experimental effort examining the evidence. Its amazing to me how the ‘controlled demolition’ people most of whom have little or no knowledge or experience or expertise in the building collapse or building demolition area, just dismiss the reports of the top experts in their fields and take some radio talk shows’ babble as gospel. The vaguest possibility is immediately touted as the truth and repeated on the internet without any research or fact checking. … [continued with a complete debunking of all WTC 7 myths]

Who cares how his name is spelled. And it does not matter whether or not he is self identified as being to the left of Stalin or to the right of Hitler. What does matter is this: whoever you are, I perceive you as a front for the force behind the events that occurred that day. The purpose of the attacks was to set in motion long laid plans to turn the United States into a fascist dictatorship.
It is easy for you to ignore the facts because you do not care about the facts. Why? Your goal is to spread propaganda in an effort to create a distraction from the real issues.
Certainly, if you are religious, I can’t think of a better theory of the origin of the universe to match with Genesis.Clearly said by a man who was not very familiar with Genesis! First, even if you fudge the “day” issue, the order of the creation events in Genesis 1 is all wrong: God created marijuana before He created the Sun and stars, for example. Second, its cosmology has the Earth being almost as old as the Universe (bzzt, wrong), with the sky above it being a solid barrier (nope) holding back vast quantities of water (say what?). Third, the first act of creation in Genesis 1 is the imposition of order on pre-existing matter, not the creation of matter ex nihilo.
So again prophesy has yet been full filled here before our very eyes! Christ said that there would be scoffers and mockers in the end days that would claim they know what they’re talking about..Yet we know as soldiers of Christ Jesus that these people, “mockers” have very little knowledge of the Bible and attain any given doctrine from “so reliable Wikipedia” to lead the world astray(another fullfillment of scripture) I just want share a little FYI with the public. The Bible is infallible in it’s accuracy. 70% has already been full filled and there is yet another 30% to still come from the book of Revelation. Jesus Is coming to redeem those who believe in Him before the time of Great Tribulation to come on Earth. That’s a pretty big gamble if you’re unsure….
hey, Satan is in control of this world, through demons which are inter-dimensional beings. Back before the Flood times which Jesus Christ refers to in the Book of Matthew, there were angels that dis-robed themselves from their heavenly bodies to come to Earth and tried to create their own race, this was the rebellion that Satan inspired. The Nephilim who are aliens in reptilian and other forms are returning to Earth very soon. When they do they will be controlled by the Anti-Christ who everyone thinks that making friends with them and their new technologies will be a good thing… it wont be until the start of the Tribulation that it is going to be revealed that it was a huge deception and the aliens will begin to wreak utter havoc in the world that no one has ever seen. Rapture will occur before this time because people that believe in God will be taken (dont know how), and the unbelievers will be left here to believe the lie that the aliens are benevolent. Yea, I know this sounds utterly crazy… but it isnt. The Bible speaks on this topic almost as much as it talks about what Jesus did in the Gospels.
Wow. All I can really say to both the original post, and the comment by ‘Mike’ is wow. Where do ideas like these come from? Aliens. No wonder you don’t believe in a god that would create such an obvious waste of potentially viable materials…(read-yourselves) and then allow the creatures access to the internet. No…such a god could not exist in the perfectly fragmented, compartmentalized worlds of isolation induced delusion in which you dwell. Go back to playing ‘World of warcraft’ and listening to black metal from Finland, re-do your black nail polish and write about how much you wish you were vampires in your myspace blog-and just leave rational thought and the serious discussion of adult subject matter to those best equipped to handle it. (read-Adults) Thanks for giving me an excuse to unload on someone who is less evolved than my own household pets.
Actually, I don’t think the original post was that ridiculous. I disagree, but it’s a position that I can respect. (And maybe sometime I’ll take the time to talk about why I disagree.) Mike’s post was a little more… ummm… unusual. I’m not quite sure where all of that comes from – it’s certainly a distortion of my understanding of the Bible. “The Bible speaks on this topic almost as much as it talks about what Jesus did in the Gospels.” Apparently I missed that part of the Bible.
I’m curious about a few things, reading these comments. Firstly, I am an agnostic (a recovering evangelical) who decidedly rejects the idea of hell. As such, I suppose I must also reject the Judeo-Christian God…to be honest, I haven’t worked up the courage to face this issue yet.
Edward will probably be pretty surprised to hear that not all agnostics/athiests are WOW playing, black robed vampire wannabes. To burst that silly categorization, I am a 25 year old caucasian female, I wear clothes from Old Navy, work in an auto shop office, live with my fiance’ and have two small chihuahuas. In the fall I am attending graduate school to study counseling psychology. The thing I don’t understand is this: why does the concept of a godless world-view suddenly cause people to assume that this is dark and horrible? The search for meaning in a forced-love kind of environment (which is decidedly Christian) can be so desperate and unfulfilling. I find that my own search for meaning and truth was made so much easier and more fun when I took the figure of angry, damning god out of my world.
So, does this mean we’re in a feud now? I’ve got overalls and can find a big old-fashioned black powder musket and straw hat, if needed!
Most religions have their setbacks—at least from the point of view of an onlooker. I do think that it may promote intolerance in a lot of cases. Honestly though, some people who are deeply religious are naturally accepting people, and even when others in their sect may promote intolerance, those people do not. It is dependent on the person. If you are an inherently good person you are not likely to discriminate against people no matter what your religion preaches.
Also, I’ve noticed some accepting Christians along with this whole “Jesus love” idea. So really, it goes both ways. They are taught to love all of “God’s children” even when those children do not adhere to the same religion or sexual orientation. And that, is a good consequence.
Uh, my life actually is exactly like that.

Terahertz is a domain of electromagnetic spectrum. But this blog isn’t about this!
Science does not say that man evolved from apes. Evoultion says that man evolved from apes. Science is not evolution. !)avid
…
well aside from the fact that evolution is not universally accepted and is still by all practical explanation at BEST a THEORY! then I see no reason to follow the flow of sewage coming out of the public school system when a large portion of science(implausibility of abiogenesis, irreducible complexity,the fact that evolution has no PLAUSIBLE explanation for the origin of life,etc…) so I will not consider evolution accepted science and neither do these people http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_signatories_to_%22A_Scientific_Dissent_From_Darwinism%22
along with approximately 376 other scientists that have since signed it as well. !)avid
I hope Santa brings us the gift of peace and quite by giving Don Cherry a bad case of perpetual laryngitis.
I proponentsistized csomething once, but I got over it.
I’m sure it would be in the peoples’ best interest if I ruled the world. Benevolent intellectual dictatorship FTW.
