Hell, I'm a member of Humans 1.0. I don't multitask very well and I don't
get along well with more than one other human at a time.

You obviously haven't read that Bible very carefully. He goes through a

Who'd want to be beside the murdering bastard? I wouldn't want to be on
the same continent with him.

Do you consider the cures that we've discovered (our wisdom) for many of
the diseases that plagued manking throughout history to be folly?

AM>       Our strength is His weakness.

How can an omnipotent being have any weaknesses at all.

AM>       His ways are not our ways.

Damn right. We don't go around slaughtering people out of hand, as a rule.

AM>       His thoughts are not our thoughts.

I'm glad not to share any thoughts with a being who would send a bear to
maul children just because they made fun of a bald-headed prophet.

AM>       He has a sense of humor.

Job really got a kick out of God's sense of humor, didn't he?

Actually, he quoted back to you the "cleaned-up" version where the word
*evil* is changed to a kinder, more-gentle (tm) word... The copy of the
Gideon Bible (which I procured from Wyoming, MI, Jim Staal's hometown) is
listed as "confusion" instead of "evil"...

RJ>         Then why didn't your god actually tell the entire world of

God did reveal his plan to us, and the collection of that plan is what we
call today, the Holy Bible.

RJ> Why just that isolated little ministry that lasted
RJ>         only three years, in a small province of the Roman Empire?

That was all he needed to prove to the Jews who he was. Remember the Bible?
It says to the Jews first and also to the Greek (meaning the rest of us).

RJ>         Why not a worldwide manifestation of his "message"?

That is why Christ said before he left the earth, go into the world and
preach the Gospel.....

FR> A buck says the Christanic will demand you're "twisting god's words."

Fredric,
Very Good you've learned to read the Bible. Tell me how could we have something
to choose from if there was not a choose against. Yes, it is true that God
created all things. If you will believe that God created evil because of
this passage, then you must also believe what else was written in this passage.
How about Isaiah 45:5 "I am the Lord, and there is none else, there is not
God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me:"
Isaiah 45:6 "That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the
west, that there is none beside me. I am the Lord and there is none else."
Isaiah 45:9 "Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker! Let the potsherd
strive with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth
it, What makest thou? or thye work, He hath no hands?"
Isaiah 45:10 "Woe unto him that saith unto his father, Wht begettest thou?
or to the woman, What hast thou brought forth?"
Isaiah 45:22 "Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth:
for I am God, and there is none else."
Or can you only read the scriptures so that you can twist them around?

A person who is utterly intolerant of any creed, belief, or race that is

From all that you've said to others and myself Fredric, specifically about

much if you would know a Christian if you fell over one.

LB> Kenneth, I asked before, but what with Fido goofing off you may have
LB> missed it -- this isn't the first time you've said something like the
LB> above.  Do you see, then, a possibility of salvation for nonchristians?
LB> On what basis would someone like Hitler (esp. if a nonchristian) be
saved?

Lynda,
I've said many times that being a Christian has nothing to do with being
saved. There are many saved people in the world that do nothing for Christ
at all. Just having salvation does not qualify you as a Christian, reading
a Bible, praying to God and going to a "Christian church" does not qualify
you as a Christian. So what then do I consider a Christian? A Christian
is someone who follows Christ, not just believes in him, but follows him.
How? By going into the world and preaching the gospel as Christ himself
taught us to do. By trying to live a life as Christ would have lived it.
For instance, in the case of Hitler, Christ would not have tried to wipe
out the Jews.....
However, salvation can only be had through the Lord Jesus Christ. "Jesus
saith unto him, I am the way, the truth and the life, no man cometh unto
the father, but by me." John 14:6 "Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that
heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life,
and shall not come unto condemnation, but is passed from death unto life."
To answer how Hitler could have had salvation, the best way I can say it
is to present salvation itself.
1. You must know that you are a sinner. Romans 3:23 "For all have sinned
and come short of the glory of God." It's being short of the glory of God
that keeps us out of heaven and away from God to start with.
2. Know that there is a price for the sin. Romans 6:23 "For the wages of
sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our
Lord." A wage is a price, someone must pay for the sins that you have in
your life. Just as with your rent or a car payment, someone else can pay
for them, but they must not have any sins themselves. That is why the only
way that we can go to heaven is through the gift of God, his Son.
3. Know that Jesus paid that price for you. Romans 5:8 "But God commandeth
his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for
us." That was the reason he came to earth, a sacrifice must be without blemish,
if you get someone else to pay for your sins, they must be without blemish.
Christ is the only one that ever died without sin so that others could live.
4. Jesus is the only way to have eternal life. Not through being good, not
through doing good things or good works, not through going to church every
Sunday, not through reading the Bible and praying everyday. Ephesians 2:8,9
"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it
is the gift of God; Not of works, lest any man should boast." Salvation
is only through faith. Just going to church every Sunday doesn't save you.
Being a good person doesn't save you. Doing good deeds doesn't save you.
The only thing that can save you is trusting Christ for salvation. There
are also a lot of people that believe about Christ but not in Christ. I
use this example at times. I have a 77 Plymouth. My dad lives 5 hours away,
I could believe that that car will make it to his house, but if I take my
Ford (just to be safe) am I really believing that the Plymouth would make
it? There are people that believe that they got saved but lost salvation
because they sinned again. There's no promise that we will not sin again,
but when Christ died, he died for all our sins, not just part of them. When
you accept Christ's payment for sins, you have to accept his payment for
all of them, not part of them.
5. All it takes is asking Jesus to save you from hell. Romans 10:13 "For
whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." Not might
be, not he'll think about it, but shall (or will) be saved. A lot of people
including some of those that call themselves Christians, think there is
more to it than that, but there isn't.
So how could Hitler have been saved? He must have realized that he was a
sinner. He must have understood that because of those sins that he was going
to hell. He must have believed that Jesus died and paid that price for him.
He must have believed that it was Jesus alone, and not his good words that
could save him from hell. He must have asked Jesus to save him. How would
he have done that? With a prayer something like "Dear Jesus, I know I'm
a sinner and that I deserve hell. So I trust you Jesus, and you alone, to
pay my sin debt and take me to heaven. Amen". Hitler would have had to have
trusted Christ for salvation at some time in his life, that is the only
way that he could have been saved.
Once salvation is gained you have it forever. John 5:24 "Verily, verily,
I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent
me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation, but is
passed from death unto life." So if you believe you gain everlasting life.
How long is everlasting? If something is everlasting can it ever end? If
one is passed from death unto life, can they ever die?

SA> GENESIS
SA>  1:24 And God said, Let the earth

SA>  his kind, cattle and creeping thing,
SA>  and beast of the earth after his kind:
SA>  and it was so.

SA>  earth after his kind, and cattle after
SA>  their kind, and every thing that creepeth
SA>  upon the earth after his kind: and God
SA>  saw that it was good.

SA>  1:26 And God said, Let us make      [editor's note: "us"?        ]
SA>  man in our own image, after our     [editor's note: "our image"?!]
SA>  likeness: and let them have dominion
SA>  over the fish of the sea, and over
SA>  the fowl of the air, and over the
SA>  cattle, and over the earth, and over
SA>  every creeping thing that creepeth
SA>  upon the earth.

SA>  1:27 So God created man is his own
SA>  image, in the image of God created
SA>  for him; male and female be created
SA>  them.

SA> [editor's note: Now that 1:24-1:27 defined the order of

SA> GENESIS
SA>  2:18 And the Lord God said, It is
SA>  not good that the man should be alone;
SA>  I will make him a help meet for him.      [whoah.  heavy grammar!]

SA>  2:19 And out of the ground the
SA>  Lord God formed every beast of the

SA> Or perhaps the King James version has parts ADDED.
SA> At any rate, you can see above that it contradicts itself.

The account in the second Chapter does not say that this is when God first
created them. "formed every beast of the field" notice the words of the
field? Means they were already there. "every fowl of the air" they were
already there too. So God created them out of the dust to show them to Adam
and to find out what Adam would call them. However it does not say formed
every beast for the field, or formed every fowl for the air does it? God
was showing them to Adam, not creating them for the first time.

SA> ref: 2:19
SA>   What do you suppose Adam named Tyrannosaurus Rex?  Triceratops?
SA>   How do you suppose God brought deep sea anglerfish to Adam,
SA>   that he give it a name?  (it says "every living creature")
SA>   [hint: Deep sea anglerfish burst upon rising to the ocean's surface]

Hint: A God that could create everthing could keep the anglerfish from bursting.

The KJV, is it?  That's funny.  We keep getting Christians who
insist the KJV is junk.  Then we have ones like you who insist
upon using it.  You'd think that if Christians had any brains
at all, they'd at least be able to figure out which of their
story books is the One True Storybook(tm).

KM>Send me a copy.

You were asked for evidence that the book doesn't exist.  Asking him
for a copy is asking for evidence that it _does_ exist, which is a
completely different scenario.

KM>Give it a rest David, I know the difference between God, the tooth fairy,
the

Yup: the other ones don't have a track record of inciting people to
kill.  Of course, all of them - God included - are purely imaginary
until evidence shows otherwise.

KM>fairy, the Easter Bunny and Santa
KM>did not die for anyones sins, and they did not create the world. Saying
that
KM>they are real is not the same as saying that God exist, simply because
God
KM>does exist and they do not.

God exists?  Really?  Okay, show me.  You can't?  Oh, so I guess he
doesn't exist.  Make up your mind.


KM> DW> The tooth fairy claims to be the creator of the universe. It says
so
KM>right
KM> DW> here in this book. Where's your evidence that I do not have such
a book?

KM>Don't need any evidence that you do not have such a book. If you do,
and the
KM>tooth fairy claims to be the creator of the universe, then the tooth
fairy is
KM>false, there is only one true God and it's not the tooth fairy.

Why?  Because *your* book says so?  Well, his book says something else.
Why should I believe your book?  Upon what testable evidence is it
based?


KM>No David I don't, I see the stupidity of one trying to use the tooth
fairy to
KM>show us that we cannot prove to you that God is real.

*IF* God is real, then in principle, he could be demonstrated.  Since
you have failed to demonstrate that He exists, we must assume that
either he doesn't, or, if he does, that you have no evidential
knowledge of it.

Since you have no evidential knowledge of God's existence, it follows
that your claims that God exists are either the ignorant and futile
rantings of a child screaming "Is too!", or are outright lies.

Which is it, Kenny?

KM>An IOU is about something physical, not spiritual, I can just as easily
claim
KM>that I have a cancelled check in front of me that shows I already paid
it.
KM>Along with it, I can claim that I have a signed receipt from you saying
that
KM>the account was paid in full. So what?

So what?  You have just demonstrated that any half-bright noodle-loving
twit can make all sorts of claims about things existing, and that
simply making the claim does *not* show that what is being claimed
is valid.

In short, you have just shown that when you claim "God exists", all
you're doing is spewing hot air.  It is just as easy to claim "Odin
exists", and it has exactly as much meaning.

Further, you have demonstrated that a claim, without evidence to
back it up, is inherently meaningless.  Since your claim "God exists"
lacks supporting evidence, then by your own examples, it becomes
a meaningless claim.

KM> You can't pray to an IOU,

Sure you can.  "Oh please, IOU, get paid off today.  I need the money."

Mind you, this probably won't do you any more good than praying to
God will, but if you're into the latter sort of delusion, why not
the former as well?

KM> DW> Are you *really* this fucking stupid, Ken?

KM>No David, I'm not stupid at all, I have different opinion about the Bible
KM>than you do, that doesn't make me stupid.

It does if your opinion is "This is real, and I refuse to even think
about the possibility I might be wrong."

KM>for it or not. Are you so stupid that you cannot see that a God that
can do
KM>anything, could do it without leaving any evidence for you?

So you're saying God is a liar?  How nice.  But if God is a liar, and
the Bible is God's word, doesn't that make the Bible a book of lies?

And still you believe it.  How weird.

I notice you don't even *try* to answer the question.  God
supposedly loves the sinner.  Yet, according to the story, the
sinner - not the sin - is going to suffer.

Now, there is *some* logic to this.  People tend to learn by
experience, and if their experiences are negative, they tend
to learn not to repeat them.

However... according to the tale, if you wind up in Hell, it's
too late, you have no chance to get out.  This means there is no
instructive value to the process; its only value is in amusing
a sick mind that gets off on the torment of others.

So, are you one of those who can't tell the difference between
torment and love?  If so, do we send the police in now to protect
your family from you?

BJ>        Ok Fredric, I have already said sorry for writing that
BJ>statement.  I now realize that it is your choice and I shouldn't
BJ>feel bad because you don't want to believe.

Do try to plug your brains in for a bit.  Nobody here, at least on
the atheist side, cares one way or the other about believing.  We
neither want to nor want not to.

Now try to follow this.  We don't care.  We maintain an open mind.
In order to convince us of your view, all that is required is some
*evidence* to support it.  If you can show us that God does, indeed,
exist - or even is the most probable explanation for life, the universe,
and everything - then we'll have little choice but to accept your
conclusions.  Until then, we simply don't care.

BJ>You ask in this message
BJ>what is the difference between
BJ>believing in God or Odin.  I don't know who Odin is first off and
BJ>second I am sure he won't forgive your sins and let you into Heaven!

Nope.  He'll judge you after death and if you don't measure up,
you won't get into Valhalla.

Oh my.  This sounds so much like your Christian mythos.  Yet you'll
no doubt treat this as so much mythology without ever realizing
the double-standard you use.

BJ>Now onto your tagline or your last statement.  You and many others
BJ>would like to see me removed or corrected, I am sure.

Nothing personal.  We're just amazed that anyone with absolutlely
no ability to think rationally can exist at all; their entire
mental energy would be consumed by the demanding task of breathing
through their mouth.

BJ>I am so glad that I have friend in Jesus!  Because you folks are not
BJ>making me feel very welcome.

Get a clue, dipshit.  You spew mindless claims with nothing to
back them up but an old book of myths, how do you expect people
to treat you?  Look at the way you react to other religions -
you simply dismiss them as meaningless.  Well, we dismiss you
as meaningless.  Grab a brain or go away.

BJ>I know you didn't mean for it to sound
BJ>that way!

I do.  Grow up, learn to think, or go fuck yourself.  Better yet,
go fuck Jesus.  From all the "In Jesus" crap we see around here,
he must get off on that sort of thing.

BJ>I know we sometimes hurt the ones we care the most about!

Indeed, but in order for that to apply, someone here would
have to care about you.  Can you suggest who that might be?

The reason you won't do it is you're a fucking coward.

Deal with it, Kenny.  No amount of your pitiful whining will ever
manage to convince anyone that you have any faith at all, since
your every post screams otherwise.

You know damned well that the test is not of God, but of your faith,
yet you avoid it at every step.  If you really had any faith, you
would stand up and show your faith by meeting the challenge.

Nope.  Instead you cower behind empty words, afraid that someone
might notice that your faith is hollow and empty.

KM>Christ would not do the things that Satan asked him to do

You see?  Even here, you admit that the test is of *YOU* and not
of God.  Yet you still refuse.  You have no faith, coward.  At least
have the guts and the personal integrity to stand up for yourself
and admit you have no faith.

MH> Plenty. The whole point is that God became a man and did endure
MH> suffering. You don't think being scourged and then nailed up would
MH> hurt?

Since you're still spewing this line, allow me to reintroduce my little
treatise upon the "suffering" of your God.

Since we know that the universe is some 15 billion years or less old,
I will use this as a starting figure.  Please note that if God has
existed longer than this, it merely makes your "suffering" argument
even sillier.

So.  15 billion years.  Now, let's suppose, for the sake of argument,
that J.C. was nailed to the cross and hung there for, oh, three days.
Let's do some math.

15 billion years * 356 days / year = 5.475 * 10^12 days.  Now, to
convert 3 days to a percentage of this, as I recall, we would
divide 3 by this figure and multiply by 100.  That give us a
value of:  5.47945.... * 10^-11 percent.

Okay.  So that's the percentage of one's life which, if spent
suffering, you seem to consider significant.

Very well.  Let's apply this to people.  Let's assume that the
average person lives some 75 years.  The time spent suffering,
then, would have to be:

75 years * 365 days / year * (% value above) = 0.0.000000015 days.

Hmm.  Let's convert that to seconds, shall we?  Multiplying by
86,400 gives us 0.001296 seconds.

So, for a normal person to spend as much time suffering, calculated
as a percentage of their lives, as your god-on-a-stick did, they
would have to spend a total of a little more than a thousandth of
a second suffering.

Take now, if you will, the case of a woman going through a 30-hour
labour.  We know this is common enough.  Hell, I even know one
woman who, during delivery, had her crotch split wide open, front
to back, requiring her to be stitched back together.

So. A 30-hour labour compared to a thousandth of a second of suffering.
The numbers here get interesting.  30 hours, time 3600 seconds per
hour, is 108,000 seconds.  Divide this by the 0.001296 seconds we
calculated above, and we find out that, based upon the portion of
their lives spent suffering, the woman goes through...

EIGHTY THREE MILLION times as much suffering.

Now, am I supposed to be impressed with the suffering he went through?
Sorry; I'm much more impressed with what women around the world
go through every day.

Now, mind you, I may have dropped a decimal point somewhere - my maths
were never as good as they should be.  However, assuming I'm off even
by a factor of 10,000, that still means that the woman would experience
several thousand times the relative suffering that your godsicle went
through.

Oh, boo hoo.  Such a poor, sad, suffering god.

MH> Plus, there's no knowing what was going on on a deeper level. Jesus
was
MH> taking all the sin of those people who would ever accept his grace,
MH> taking it into himself, for only he could expiate it. For a God who
is
MH> so holy he despises even little sins, how much suffering do you think
MH> that entailed?

Apparently, not a hell of a lot.  Boo hoo.


MH>... Without the right to life, all other rights mean nothing.

Tell that to the victims of Jonestown and Waco.

In this instance, Fredric is making TWO mistakes.  The second is assuming
there is a mind to be read from.

It's well worth it, if it can be found.  I'm not sure if it's in 
print any more; the printing I have is from 1972, and it cost all 
of 87 cents at the second-hand bookstore.  I haven't re-read it 
yet (the first time I read it was a library copy, years and years 
ago) but I'm beginning to feel that it would be worth giving it 
another read quite soon.

The only reason it's been going at all, apparently, is because 
they're working on private monies, and thus were able to keep 
going despite the recent governmental shutdown (or was it a 
near-shutdown?) in Washington.  Defenders of Wildlife is also 
keeping a fund for ranchers who can prove that their livestock has 
been killed by wolves.  Apparently, only about $200 or $300 has 
been paid so far wrt Yellowstone wolves (equal to the cost of 
about 2 sheep.)

Wouldn't dream of it.  I've considered donating blood (they don't 
pay for it over here, so the financial aspect is automatically out 
of the question) but every time I seriously think about it, I get 
really queasy. I don't even think $50 would be a great enticement 
unless I was completely penniless.

Just the thought of it now makes me want to pass out.

They gave me something called Darvon-N (after looking it up to 
check, I'm pretty sure that's what it was) after my second kid was 
born, in hospital.  Usually, they just give you Tylenol #1 or 2, 
but codeine doesn't do very much for me, so they had to administer 
something a wee bit .. stronger.  And boy, is that shit _strong_.  
I was so beyond pain it was incredible.  It even had the other 
women in my ward _demanding_ the stuff, after seeing how ... happy 
.. I was. :)  Looking at the warnings in the description, though, 
it seems to be quite dangerous, though it's not a narcotic (but it 
sure acts like one.)  Hell, you don't even realise you're in pain 
on this stuff - you don't even realise you have a _BODY_.

There is no "wolf family".  Wolves are but one species within the 
genus Canis, which is but one genus within the family Canidae, 
which is but one family within the order Carnivora (which is but 
one order in the class Mammalia, which is but one class in the 
phulum Chordata, which is but one phylum in the kingdom Animalia.)

The domestic dog (Canis familiaris) appears to have been bred by 
man from one or more sub-species of wolf (possibly C. lupus 
pallipes and C. l. arabs).  Other species within the genus Canis 
include the dingo (C. dingo, but may soon be reclassified as C. 
familiaris dingo, if it already hasn't been - there is also talk 
of reclassifiying the domestic dog itself as C. lupus familiaris), 
the coyote (C. latrans), the golden jackal (C. aureus), the 
black-backed jackal (C. mesomelas), the side-striped jackal (C. 
adustus) and the red wolf (C. rufus, which may be a product of the 
natural cross-breeding of wolves and coyotes where their ranges 
overlap.)

This genus is closely related to the other Canidae, which includes 
the dhole (Cuon alpinus), the arctic fox (Alpoex lagous), the 
crab-eating fox (Cerdocyon thous), the European red fox (Vulpes 
vulpes), the grey fox (Urocyon cinerreoargenteus), the kit fox 
(Vulpes velox), the red fox (V. fulva), the South American fox 
(Dusicyon culpaeus), the African hunting dog (Lycaeon pictus), the 
bush dog (Speothos vernaticus), the raccoon dog (Nyctereutes 
procyonoides) and the small-eared dog (Atelocynus microtis) - 
among possible others that might have slipped my mind at the 
moment.

The Carnivora themselves appear to have evolved from the 
Creodonta, which existed over 100 million years ago, according to 
the fossil record and the geological column.  The Carnivora are 
split into two branches - the "dog branch" and the "cat branch".  
The cat branch is pretty lonely - it includes only the Felidae 
(which includes the domestic cat, which appears to have been bred 
from a species of small, wild African desert cat, lions, tigers, 
lynxes and all the critters generally recognised as "cats"), the 
Hyaenas (which are indeed more closely related to cats than dogs 
despite appearances - surprise!) and the civets (Viverridae) as 
well as some extinct forms.  The Canidae themselves are very 
closely related to the bears (Ursidae), the weasels (Mustelidae), 
and the raccoons (Procyonidae) -- and all seem to have evolved 
from a family called Miacidae (named for the fossil Miacis) which 
existed between 50 and 60 million years ago.  As noted, the 
Micidae evolved from the Creodonta, which in turn evolved from the 
mammal-like reptiles of the late Permian, which in turn evolved 
from true reptiles, which of course evolved from amphibians, which 
came from lobefin fishes, which in turn came from more 
conventional fish, which in turn came from Pikaia (the first 
chordate we know about) which in turn came from lifeforms without 
spinal cords, which in turn came from single-celled organisms.

So, yes, nature CAN create new species all by herself.  Glad you 
see the wisdom of the fossil record, which does indicate that 
evolution did indeed take place.

Shall we now discuss the human family tree?  That, too, BTW, can 
be traced back to Pikaia.

I once had the good luck to have an English teacher who actually 
understood literature, and wasn't afraid to explain all he knew.  
When we started taking _Romeo and Juliet_, he was certain to 
explain to all of us (after ensuring the classroom door was shut) 
all the dirty jokes Shakespeare liberally sprinkled in that play.  
Of course, he did try to mince words a bit, but usually wound up 
having to explain it in more .. detail for the slower kids who 
couldn't get the more roundabout hints.  Unfortunately, there was 
one chick who likened herself to be "prim and proper" (no, not me.  
I was actually amongst the first to laugh when he pointed out 
where the jokes were) who kept piping up with "Sir, that's 
DISGUSTING!"  He kept pointing out that HE didn't write it, 
Shakespeare did, and got so fed up one day, he went into a long 
speech about how if he DIDN'T make sure we understood EVERY WORD 
in the book, he simply wasn't doing his job.  She still put on the 
indignant stuff, though.  I wonder if she ever wound up 
siccing her parents on the poor sod?  I hear he's still teaching, 
though, so even if she did, it didn't work.  Thank goodness; 
decent English teachers are damn hard to come by, especially ones 
that actually understand what the hell is contained in literature.  
I think I learned more in two classes he taught (both 11 and 12) 
than in any other years hence.  And I did take _Romeo and Juliet_ 
once before that, in gr 10, before I switched high schools -- the 
second time around was MUCH more interesting and informative, to 
say the least.  Frankly, I couldn't see what was so damn great 
about Shakespeare before I got him as a teacher .. but then, none 
of the other teachers apparently knew, either - or else they were 
just too chickenshit to teach it properly.

Actually, to tell the truth, if you raised salaries to a point where people
would wnat to teach and all of them did teach, there still wouldn't be enough
really good teachers to tackle the job.  Teaching takes a certain inner
talent.  Training and schooling helps, but you have to be adept at it. 
The system now certainly doesn't make those that want to teach teachers.
The system with a nice fat salary would be a fix that just didn't have a
big enough band aid.

makes Christianity seem silly than smug Christians referring to
atheists as "heinous blasphemers" makes atheists looks heinous. Both
just make the person calling the name look childish.

MG>> 2.  Hell on Earth...the constatnt suffering of persons for

MH>  And if such reasons are unknown, how can you presume to judge
MH> them  insufficient? Perhaps there is a God who allows
MH> suffering for a very  good reason, but it simply isn't
MH> fathomable from our perspective.

MG> I see you picked the wrong part of the question.  "Reasons unknown"
is
MG> a poor choice of words.  Hell on Earth is the important part.  The
MG> reasons may be unclear, but since there is suffering, there is
MG> imperfection, no matter wht point of view you have.  That means a lck
MG> of a perfect god.

No, Martin, it doesn't. A perfect God by your standards would be forced
to create humanity as mindless automatons -- robbing us of our capacity
for moral choice and therefore robbing us of what makes us human. Your
"perfect" God is paradoxically limited in His options, and thus not
perfect at all.

MH>  Your characterization is faulty. It isn't accept "Jess" and let
MH> the  starving go with nothing. It's believe in Jesus and
MH> allow God to begin  making you more and more like Jesus,
MH> which means to become more and  more attuned to the needs of
MH> the starving, and others in need, and work  to satisfy those
MH> needs. The theme of helping the needy is all through  the
MH> Bible.

MG> This again, is not the subject of my critique.  Theists on this echo
MG> have told me that someone that they consider sinful can accept the
MG> savior on their deathbed and be saved.  Why so little?  Feeding the
MG> starving would be, at least to me, a faster route to any salvation.

For someone not on their deathbed, in fact, such good works are the
inevitable result of genuine faith. "Faith without works is dead." But
why should God be so merciless as to condemn someone who does genuinely
repent on his deathbed? Sure, you might argue, the person should have
thought of that sooner, and you'd be right. But he didn't. Would a
perfect God turn away sincere repentance, however belatedly offered?

MG>> 5.  The poor design of nature...Cancers and other tumors and
MG>> the constant   changing of species to mitigate the
MG>> environement (evolution).
MH>  What ever made you think that the universe was designed to be
MH> perfect?

MG> Because your god is perfect.  There is no reason to believe that
MG> anything he creates is anything but perfect.  Again, it's Occam that
MG> slices this one.

No, it's your narrow definition of what consititutes perfection. Why
would a perfect God be *limited* to creating only a mechanical
clockwork universe where nothing can go awry?

MG>> 6.  Religion based atrocities...While, I admit, a very
MG>> minority of religious     persons are involved, they still
MG>> take up a good deal of our history books.      A real god
MG>> would have prevented, at least this, bunch of acts performed
MG>> in      his name.
MH>  Presumption. Who are you to declare what a "real god" would do?

MG> You'll say anything to keep from admitting tht your god screwed up.
A
MG> god that allows the Inquisition?  I don't think so.  The answer is that
MG> there was nothing there like a god to stop these murderers.

There's nothing in Christian theology that suggests God *should* stop
the murders. If we're here to make free moral decisions, then God can't
play cosmic cop everytime someone is about to get hurt.

God *will* judge the murderers, however, and unless they repent --
which isn't insincerely saying "I'm sorry," but really feeling the pain
of sin -- they will be terribly sorry.

MG>> 7.  Need to test...Instead of perfection, there is this
MG>> god's "need to test" us     when the perfect being knows the
MG>> outcome anyway. Millions die or suffer     due to these
MG>> tests.
MH>  I don't know of anything in the Bible to suggest that God
MH> "tests"  everyone. Besides, while God may know the outcome,
MH> we don't. If you're  a parent, you know that sometimes your
MH> child may be capable of  something and not know it -- until
MH> you test him and allow him to see in  himself what you knew
MH> was there.

MG> Why doesn't god just make him perfect.  Why cause tribulations with
MG> testing?

What would be the point of creating beings who are already "perfect"
(by your standards)? They would be able to make no free choices -- and
thus would be imperfect.

... The danger of leaving God to the 11th hour is you might die at 10:30.

You still don't have it. Read it again. What I said was "any SUCH
account" is conjecture, with "such" referring back to accounts of the
"lost years" of Jesus. You dropped "such" when you restated the phrase,
thus changing its meaning from what I said.

I suspect you're simply playing word games. If that suspicion proves
true, I'll add you to my twit filter. I'm not interested in wasting
time that way.

No, I did not. I assisted him in clarifying his meaning -- that
Gwenny's ex was smart (in JIM'S opinion) for being her ex. Jim never
condoned his beating her, that I could ever detect.

I found Jim's remark to be appalling enough without the
misinterpretation that was being laid on it, so I helped him express
himself better.

Can you really not see the difference between that and condoning?

There is a different word for flying insects, so obviously the Hebrews
would have understood the word in context. It probably meant larger
flying animals.

Are you so entrenched in your insistence on criticizing the Bible that
you're going to deny that Hebrew words mean what they mean?

I've yet to hear Dole or Gramm speak out in favor of illegalizing

Who are these conservinazis?  I want to know which ones you consider
to be extremist, in comparison to who you consider to be average
conservatives.

The term "traditional gender roles" indicates majority opinion.
Do you believe that the majority is conservative?  Unless you do,
your statement reflects that non-conservatives agree with what
you attribute to "conservinazis".  Funny how prejudice reveals
itself in subtle contradiction.
Such is fundamentalist liberalism; whose primary tactic is
fear peddling to a gullible audience.  Not at all unlike Christianity.

Perhaps you need to expand your scope of conservativism beyond

Apparently, you haven't read what I've said repeatedly:
THE PRESIDENT SERVES AS A FIGUREHEAD AND SCAPEGOAT.
CONGRESS HOLDS (almost) ALL OF THE POWER.

None of the things that you attribute to conservative presidents
could have happened without the majority of (a democratic) congress
allowing those things to happen.  What I've stated about wanting
Gramm (a conservative) in the presidency... is to allow our newly
elected CONSERVATIVE majority in congress to effect changes more
constructively, without some liberal bozoid like Clinton vetoing
whenever the wind blows to the right.

> I know PRECISELY what they want because I read their own words.

BZZZZZT!  You read what they are QUOTED as having said.
As I've repeatedly pointed out, video clips consistently prove
that written quotes differ from what was actually stated.
That is one primary factor in Limbaugh's popularity... is that he
shows clips of what people actually said - after pointing out what
major newspapers INCORRECTLY reported.  Whether you believe anything
that _I_ tell you or not, you SHOULD realize that you can't rely
on the news media to give you the truth.  Not even Limbaugh's show
gives you the entire picture - but it DOES prove that the other
media sources are catering to the liberalist side of the political
spectrum.

Again:  Watch C-SPAN, MEET THE PRESS, FACE THE NATION, or any of the
other multitude of live interview/debate forums.  First-hand info
obtained second-hand (via TV) beats second-hand info second-hand
(newspaper) anyday.

As far as I (as a conservative) am concerned, it IS up for discussion.

I'm not familiar with that scenario.  However, I applauded when he

that placed public safety at risk.

> I'll tell you why we haven't made much progress - Conservinazi
> or liberal, most of our legislators are MALE.

[yawn]  Women outnumber men.  That means that more women are
eligible to vote than men.  Obviously, women therefor vote for men.
If you take issue with those who women MUST support in order for
them to gain sufficient votes to be elected; I suggest that you
examine where your opinion ranks with regard to the majority of
other women's opinions.  For obvious reasons, I don't believe that
your opinions reflect those of the women voting majority.

Do you find that it is difficult to get people to take your
complaints seriously?  What I've outlined above should give
you a hint as to why.  If you have to tell people how much you've
suffered, it's probably not as bad as you make it out to be.
(otherwise, you wouldn't need to point it out)
[that philosophy is echoed by one of the world's most powerful women;
Margaret Thatcher]

> Until we reach gender parity, we won't make too much more.

Until you adjust your attitude, you will not be accepted into the
"gender parity" compromise that you seek.  Cause vs. effect, Karen.

> You also don't recognize how much this anti welfare tear is anti
> woman.

[yawn]  That would only indicate that the majority of welfare abusers
are women - not that the majority of women are welfare abusers.
Your inverse reasoning above is strikingly similar to that of
someone claiming that pot leads to heroin, simply because most
heroin users have tried pot.  Incidental effect does not equate
to primary causation.

> Most of those on government assistance are single mothers with
> children.

Yeah, funny thing about having kids.  I've never met a man who has
given birth.  Coincidentally, the majority of people having abortions
are also women.  Most of those single mothers with children also
have deadbeat boyfriends/husbands that don't help out, too.
My point being that the anti-woman portion of your scenario refers
more to the "man" that put her in that position... than the
government that gets stuck with the tab.

> THe lies the conservinazis tell about them, though...
> I agree some restructuring can and should take place.
> But let's cut MILITARY spending and other trash first.

Why FIRST?  Why not SIMULTANEOUSLY?  Do you perchance have a stake
in our welfare system?  Just curious, as I know many people on
government assistance who can't find work, but they can always
find time to hang out on BB systems - with better equipment than
most working people can afford.  I hope that you don't fall under
that particular classification.

> ... Real men don't abuse children.

Agreed.  Are you surprised that we agree?
If you or a child have been mistreated by a "man", I would hope
that you would not attempt to "blanket classify" other men for
his actions.  To do so would be no different than Christians
condemning everyone as "sinners" for Adam's sins.

If that were so, how is it that your democratic congress permitted
those policies to be enacted?  Presidents don't make the policies.
They merely approve or veto such policies.  Congress makes law.
Since you weren't around 40 years ago, I'll assert to you that
you haven't been paying attention to who's been making those
"insensitive" policies for the last four decades.  You can't blame
the last 40 years on conservatives, because they weren't in power.
Your liberalist democrats were.

> You sound like a tape-recording repeating the agenda ad nauseam.

Back atcha.  At least I don't get my opinion spoonfed to me from
liberalist propaganda sources.

> Are you closet-christian, too?

Eat shit, Scot.  I didn't take offense to your earlier bullshit,
but that statement earns you my disrespect in an instant.
It was a stupid statement, even if made in sarcastic jest.
I see no smiley face, nor do I sense one.

> Your beliefs disgust me.

That is your right; just as is it mine to feel likewise toward yours.
Voting is a right.  Respect must be earned.
Try to have a nice day.

Whilst noshing on a Twinkie, Michael Hardy mumbled "apostate"

JS> When one confesses something, it takes no 'heart vision' to determine
JS> what's going on. You can just take the person at their word then,
JS> can't you?

PS> No. The world is not, as you would like to believe, all
PS> black-and-white, yes-or-no. But I realize that you are handicapped with
PS> permanently polarized thinking and may not realize this simple fact.

MH> So you're saying that if a person confessess -- admits to -- doing
MH> something, and you have no particular reason to think the person is
MH> lying, you still don't take them at their word?

The situation you are describing is not analogous to the one that Jim was
describing (note the inclusion of the modifier "...and you have no particular
reason to think the person is lying...").

If a person of fairly good reputation (IMO) is telling me that he did
something and I have no evidence to the contrary and no reason to think
that the person might might be lying, then I'll most likely take him at
his word.

But, if someone that I don't know well, or someone who has lied to me
repeatedly before, makes a claim that is contradicted by other evidence,
then I have no reason to think that the person is telling the truth.

I had hoped to reach someone other than Freud. I like Freud's
explanation, there may be other explanations though.

You sure about this?  I know the Armed Forces have some groundbased
telescopes that make the Hubble (visually) look like a toy, but I wasn't
aware the new telescopes on Hawaii were working that well.

Yes.  Their way and their way only.  Non-Puritans were treated about the

We weren't talking about rapists and murderers, Mike.  We were talking
about Worrell.  Annoying as you may find him, I happen to consider him a
good person, and, IMO, he doesn't deserve to go to hell simply because
he doesn't believe in the god Jim believes in.

MH> Real just and righteous God you want there, Kevin.

For that matter, is eternal punishment a just reward for *anything*?
Eternity is a forever.

This is true , but there again that is external of your body. For a

Leaving a women in a situation like that -Alone- ,is where i think

forced to live at a lower status then the women ,either.

Might be an urban legend, but in my much younger and poorer days, I once
made stew from Alpo beef chunks. I hadn't had any meat in almost a month
and that was all I could afford. Actually, it wasn't bad. Of course, I
DID know what I was eating.

JH> I hope you told him no.

JH> fine. But it sounds like this guy had something STUPID in mind.

I certainly did tell him no. Firstly because I don't have anything like
that. Secondly because I don't WANT anything like that. I have a few 
novelty items that are cute. Even did up a bunch of them for a local 'movie'
company. Those were just paint over greenware, though, as they wanted
something easily breakable. (And greenware doesn't leave sharp edges)

Thirdly, even just talking to this guy on the phone gave me the creeps.
I
don't feel like I want him coming to the shop. (Especially since the shop
is on the same property as my home.)

Yesssssss! And the technician who knows how to do it just 'so'...so that

Because horses make a good way of breaking the barriers between the police
and the people. Even when not working crowd control, a mounted officer
will draw a crowd. Most people will want to pet the animal. In the course
of that, conversations start. Kids especially start to see the police as
people and not the enemy. As turnabout, the mounted officer also gets
exposed to the people as more than 'uncaught felons'. A mounted patrol is
good public relations.

MH> Make sly comments; sometimes your partner needs a nudge. "Oh, I 
MH> wish _someone_ was around to massage my scalp ..." =)

Well, if statements like 'I LOVE to have my hair brushed', and straight
out questions like 'would you massage my scalp for me?' don't work, I
don't think sly hints will. No, this is one I just have to resign myself
to never getting.

And with the signing of the telecomm bill, the first amendment has just
been handed to those jackasses to do with as they will.

Everybody says that the ban on discussion of abortion on the net is
unconstitutional and will be overturned. For the moment, however, it IS
illegal. I can't help but see the RR trying to make sure it is enforced.
In fact, this message is probably also illegal as I used the word.

Let's see, I can have an abortion if I want to but I can't DISCUSS the
topic over an electronic medium. yeah...right!

Not quite the same.  A car is fully under the control of the 
driver.  A horse, being a horse, has a discernable temperament.  

Though it's under the control of the rider, it can kick and 
move on it's own.  

Yes, it's a very good form of crowd control, as the general 
crowd is somewhat skittish about how well the horse itself 
can actually be controlled by the rider.  See also Hannibal 
and the efficacy of elephant(s).

Judith, there was at least one other message that you sent in 
this packet with the same "non-context".  Is your OLR doing 
you in, or is there something else causing the problem?  

Here's the other one that I found.  Notice the origin line:

Martin! It seems you still have a lot to learn. First off, I'm no 
coward, nor made myself look foolish here and had to run away. As 
I've never left. As a wise being once said: "A wise man may look 
ridiculous in the company of fools." So I ask, what would a wise man 
get out of by debating with fools? Rather, I find studying research 
from intellectual beings more fulfilling than arguing with morons.

Here's the text of a press release from the Center for Reproductive Law
and 
Policy, released February 7, 1996:
==============================================================

Women's Health Advocates Challenge Communications Bill Gag on
Abortion Information on the Internet

Brooklyn, New York - In papers filed this afternoon
in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York,
attorneys representing women's health care providers and advocates asked
a three-judge court to prevent imminent enforcement of a criminal ban on
abortion information. Buried in the Telecommunications Act of 1996, the
little-noticed section would make it a federal crime to use interactive
computer systems to provide or receive information about abortion.
Individual violators would face up to $250,000 in fines and/or five years
in prison for a first offense; fines would be doubled for organizations.
The communications bill, which was passed by both houses of Congress on
February 2, is expected to be signed by President Clinton late tomorrow
morning; the challenged provisions would take effect immediately.
Represented by the Center for Reproductive Law and Policy, plaintiffs
assert that they would be subject to the law because they use the
Internet for commercial and non-commercial speech concerning abortion.

"The staunchly anti-choice members of Congress have tried to further
their extreme agenda by launching a stealth attack on the ability of
women's health care advocates and providers to share information and
obtain products that further women's health and well-being," said Simon
Heller of the Center for Reproductive Law and Policy, who represents the
advocates and health care providers in Sanger v. Reno.

The 1996 omnibus legislative package governing the telecommunications
industry includes amendments to the infamous Comstock Act, an 1873
federal obscenity statute that made it a crime to send material on
contraceptives or abortion through the mail. Used to prosecute Margaret
Sanger and other pioneers in the birth control movement, the law was
revised by Congress in 1971 to remove the language concerning
contraceptives. However, the restrictions on abortion information and
materials remained on the books, even in the wake of the U.S. Supreme
Court's 1973 decision in Roe v. Wade which effectively legalized abortion.

As amended by the 1996 communications law, 18 U.S.C. Section 1462(c)
applies to taking or receiving, via interactive computer service, "any
drug, medicine, article, or thing designed, adapted, or intended for
producing abortion ... or any written or printed card, letter, circular,
book, pamphlet, advertisement, or a notice of any kind giving
information, directly or indirectly, where, how, or of whom, or by what
means any of such mentioned articles, matters or things may be obtained
or made."

According to the complaint, the challenged provision violates the
First Amendment right to freedom of speech and freedom of the press, the
Fifth Amendment right to have notice of prohibited conduct, and the Fifth
Amendment right to make personal reproductive decisions. The ban on
abortion information is broad enough to encompass a wide range of
activities, including advertisements of abortion services; Internet
transmission of chemical formulas for drugs such as mifepristone or
methotrexate, which can be used to induce abortion; purchase or sale over
the Internet of medical equipment, such as the vacuum aspiration machine
used in the abortion procedure; and bulletin board or World Wide Web
sites that tell women where they can obtain abortions. In addition, the
pre-existing law prohibits, for example, transporting medical equipment
used in abortions across state lines.

Plaintiffs in the case, who file on behalf of themselves and all
others similarly situated, are: Alexander Sanger, President of Planned
Parenthood of New York City (PPNYC), and PPNYC; Rhonda Copelon, Professor
of Law at the City University of New York in Queens; Adam
Guasch-Melendez, a Washington, D.C. resident who maintains a site on the
World Wide Web; the California Abortion and Reproductive Rights  Action
League (North) (CARAL); the National Abortion and Reproductive Rights
Action League (NARAL); the Feminist Majority Foundation; Medical Students
for Choice; and the National Abortion Federation. They are represented by
the Center for Reproductive Law and Policy's Simon Heller, Janet Benshoof
and Kathryn Kolbert and NARAL's Marcy Wilder and Nicole McLaughlin.

Don't forget the Bush-Puke debacle.  Not that it was in his control or anything.
Bad sushi is bad sushi.  It 'twas funny, even if it was a liberalist media

Damn shame that the resulting embargo has killed nearly 130,000 infants

Wow.  I'm now a fundamentalist voter.  Neither Republicrat or Democan, BTW.
I feel honored, especially with the remark coming from you -- the one who
buys into a party line.  Political parties are religions.

I don't really care if you are disappointed with my voting record.  I don't
do things to avoid your disappointment.

I might point out that the lies came from BOTH sides, not just the 12 Jewish
bankers who were obviously controlling the evil liberalist media machine.
They work behind the scenes of course.

Smith also got federal tax revenue to clean up his fuckup.  Regardless of
if it was a mistake or not, he is in big business and he does pollute the
environment.  You don't think that he would be swayed to vote against certain
environmental bills so that he could make more money by not doing the right
thing?  Big business and government is an obvious conflict of interest.
Just look at the defense contractors.  

BTW, why do I always hear you bitching about `scum-of-the-earth' welfare
leeches when the big loss is in pork projects and welfare for big business
and the defense industry?

SA> You allowed Smith's dogmatic alignment to steer you back onto
SA> Wyden's path? 

First, I don't vote for fundamentalist mormons with big interests in big
companies.  The latter is a severe conflict of interest.

Second, if Smith was to go with the `Contract on America' and all of that
Republican revolution bullshit as you said he stated he would he would be
cutting federal student aid and voting against environmental protection
laws in order to directly aid big business [where he has personal interests].
Those things I cannot agree with, not in my current position at least. 
It's called investment, Styx.  The federal government helps me through grants
and low interest loans to get through school so that I can be an educated
and productive member of society later in life.  I will give back far more
than I have taken.  

To simply state it, I wouldn't be in school if it were not for such investments
in me by the federal government.  As it stands, after I pay for the remaining
3/4 of my tuition with my own money I live at or below poverty standards.
Federal grants and loans help me a lot more than a few bucks that I would
get back at the end of the year after the Republicrats are finished with
the cuts.

Ron Wyden not only is against such cuts, he votes green.  These are two
things that I didn't see in Mr. Smith and that is one of the reasons why
I voted as I did.

SA>  That fear might very well reciprocate in the form of
SA> higher taxes. 

At this time in my life I am not concerned with that as I don't make much
money as it is.  As I stated, I live at or below poverty leve [the federal
standard that is] after I pay for 3/4 of my own tuition with my own money
and pay the rest with loans and grants.  Tax cuts have little impact on
me.  Besides, my needs are basic.  I don't have many `toys' and I don't
really need them.  I prefer music and books.

SA>  Check Wyden's history with regard to increasing
SA> state spending. Then compare to what Smith sought to do (i.e.
SA> balance the budget). 

Check the Republican record for increasing defense spending, getting kickbacks
from defense contractors, and giving out welfare to big business.  After
you are finished with that, look at the PORK in Newt Gingrich's home state.

Good, then just skip over messages that you find offensive.  As I have stated

speech.

Yeah...but those soy-ink babble pages makes the WORST paper-airplanes. 
Those pages sag under the weight as they are already too thin to begin with.
Best to just wad them up and use them as spit-balls.  :)

That is not evidence of any god, that simply suggests that there is a world

Your ignorance is showing.  Modern microbiologists do not use `Darwin's
Theory'.  It has changed thousands of times over in just the last half century.
You see, that's how science works.  Theories change when new things are
learned.  That's more than can be said about your stale old religion.  Nothing
changes, even if evidence is presented to the contrary.

I'll leave that up to Globreg, he should take care of that nicely.

While we're at it though, I'd like to see your theory for creationism. 
Please present to us so that we may examine it.

You don't know those things, you beLIEve those things.

Just like yours statements.

It's funny how all of us have fallen victim to the liberalist media machine
which is controlled by the 12 Jewish Bankers who have direct ties with the
Telepathic Shadow Government why you are simply correct in thinking the
way you do.  You only choose to see the liberalist media machine while you
refuse to see anything similar to that coming from the conservatives.

The problem is not with Republicrats and Democans, the problem resides in
politics, politics as usual.  It's all the same bullshit, day in, day out.

That's one of the reasons I never registered as a Republicrat or Democan.
Neither of them fit my views.  When a vote comes up I simply vote for the
best person in my mind, regardless of party membership.

It may surprise you Styx, but this `fundamentalist nonthinking liberal'
has voted for Republicans in the past [as well as Democrats] and probably
will continue to do so in the future.

No, maybe I don't pay as much attention as I could. You just seem to be
one
who keeps his private life to himself. Outside of unusual conditions, we've
seen an awful lot about others' kids here...including Curry's  (niece? darn,
don't even remember the relationship, but I DO remember him seeming
overawed and totally proud of her.)

You know I have grandkids, but I've promised myself I wouldn't get into
the
typical 'grandma' mode...EVER. Even though I feel about them the way you
do
Al. Cherish her now, Hector, they grow up so fast and are gone so soon.

There is nothing to compare to the feeling of watching your baby holding
one
of his/her own. And wishing they were small enough again to crawl up in
your
lap to be held.

Isn't it strange that not *one* of those 500 witnesses seems to have been
someone 'official' who would have at least mentioned it to someone in
authority? And not one of those witnesses wrote anything about it themselves,
or even had their name recorded as being a witness. Makes you wonder, don't
it?


... I find it hard to accuse someone of honesty.

RJ> What is this potable of which you all speak?  What's its
RJ> flavor? 

Genever, a Dutch form of gin. Two main kinds...'oude' (old) and 'jonge'
(young). These appellations refer to the age of the formulae, not the age
of the booze. Oude is a brownish yellow and slightly oily looking, jonge
is
crystal clear. As to the taste, can't help you there. But the Dutch custom
is to sit down at about 5pm for a 'bolletje'...a small shot glass of
Genever and some cheese and sausage. You can find Genever here if you look
for it. Most of what is imported is in either cream- or brown-colored
crockery bottles.

The purplish-black, herbal Genever is called Beerenburg. As far as I know,
it is not imported into the states due to only small batches being made
every year and it selling out quite quickly. This is stuff that would kill
the toughest weeds at 30 paces.  (Just from the smell)

You want something from me... I can tell.

The only thing that might place me in a minority here in the echo is
I don't feel any animosity towards belief systems. I don't feel any
obligation to "respect" them either, but I feel it would be a waste
of emotional energy to work my self up to a point of an ALL CAPS 
SCREAMING RAGE over them. 

I also have a grasp upon a concept that has eluded you, Jesse Jones
and Jim Staal (among others): it's real easy to become a crashing
bore in this medium. If you have a legitimate beef with a user (lets
use Fred Rice as a somewhat less than hypothetical example), state
your case publicly and then MOVE ON TO SOMETHING ELSE. Harping on a
single issue month after month with thousands of messages simply
insures that your posts will be ignored by most.

It is also Day SIXTEEN of Failed Satanic Curse Number TWO. 

Nothing has happened.

You have only FIVE days left in order to destroy me with your
"magick" (on or before February 14th) in order to fulfill the
conditions of Curse Number Three.

I don't feel a thing.

Ah... but you could put it on the evening TeeVee News as an item
about a "Senior Citizen being terrorized by 42 Juvenile Gang
Members" and at least half the population (including a number of
folks here on the echo) would be on their feet cheering for the
bears.

All of this senseless bloodshed could have been avoided by having
a dress code.

There were a couple of 19th century cases in England where a woman
was initiated, passed and raised as a Master Mason without there
being any fuss made until years afterwards. Usually the woman was
a member of the aristocracy or otherwise a person of influence and
substance.

Just how the rituals were performed is left to the imagination, but
I suspect it was a case of  "Tits?
Tits? What tits? I don't see no tits. Do you see any tits?"

I'll be damned if I can remember all of the details, but they
were rounded up by a contractor and healthy animals were either
auctioned or lotteried off for adoptions. "Sick" animals became
dog food. 

However, I suspect a lot of healthy animals were probably labeled
as being unsuited for adoption. I just cant see some 15 year old
jack who has lived in the wild all his life settling down for a
retirement in a petting zoo. Such animals probably ended up as 
Alpo as well.

Not really. A car needs a HELL OF A LOT MORE room to turn around in
than a horse does. Cars cant move sideways. They don't jump very
well either.

If crowd control is what you are after, then you need to put your
cops on shuggoths. (You'll need a lot of cops, because they will
tend to end up IN the shuggoths and not on them.)

J.J. Hitt said "Offensive ASCIIs" to Damien Wellman, and added:

JH> Do you think there is a market for Our Lord's Pecker Car Badges?

JH> Step on the brakes and he gets an errection.

I saw a nifty switch plate last month: it was a picture
of the Pope with the switch toggle sticking out the front of
his robes. Perhaps the same thing could be done with the
crucifixion: The normal ASCII we see here from time to time
would be "off".

I'm sure there are well-meaning ministers.  Hell, there's

I admit that when I learn a person is a theist, they immediately
lose credibility.  For that reason, Lewis, Chesterson, et al 
would not be my first choice for a philosophical study.  They
may be intellectual GIANTS but that one 'flaw' is like a stain
that won't come out.

You may feel the same about atheists (which is your right).

AS>    Now contrast Jesus. He would not let Peter fight against those taking
AS>  Him. He didn't take the disciples down with Him, as opposed to all
three o
AS>  meglomaniacs mentioned above. He answers clearly, cleanly, concisely
his
AS>  critics. There is no hint of the attendant rages and abuses (as opposed
AS>  to justifiable anger, like Him getting the moneychangers out of the
AS>  temple) that the other three did. He has none of the symptoms of the
AS>  meglomaniac. Yet He is making statements only a meglomaniac---or someone
AS>  who really WAS God---could make.
AS>    No, I don't expect it to convince you. But I do mention it as an
AS>  interesting inconsistency in your views, and one that is explained
in
AS>  mine.

Assuming the story is somewhat accurate, does the behavior
of Jesus rule out delusion?  If your megalomania is that of
a loving and sacrificing god, you're compelled to play the
part.  (See: Buddhist monks who set themselves on fire)

AS>  It's like slavery. It's a matter of definition...is a fetus a human
being?
AS>  Is a slave a human being? Even Plato talked of naturally servile natures.
AS>  Or people being "natural" slaves. And like slavery, the idea one way
or
AS>  the other always ignites psssions.

Slaves should be eternally offended by the constant comparisons
with fetuses.  I don't see how even the sternest of slavemasters
could confuse the obvious if he was presented with a 20 year old,
healthy slave and 1 inch fetus, then asked "Which one has more
value?  Which one is more human?"

AS>  Well...yeah. That's what they did believe, after all. My wife once
had a
AS>  very early miscarriage, and what she passed could be put into a pill
AS>  container. But when I looked into it, it didn't look like a fetus.
AS>  It looked like a baby forming. The two phrases mean the same thing,
but
AS>  have a world of different connotations. But I can't talk. I paid for
the
AS>  abortion of a female relative when I was younger.

I absolve you of all 'sin'.  The fundy crowd would have you
and her think you were murderers.  You did nothing wrong.
And if the circumstances for raising a child were poor,
you probably did a lot of good.

AS>  Certainly tribal. I'm not sure the racial arrogance...remember, even
Jesus
AS>  talked of Gentiles as "dogs". So the Caucasian gentiles were looked
down
AS>  by the Jews of His day.

Jesus called the Gentiles "dogs"?

AS>  RB> Jesus could walk on water, make the blind see and rise from
AS>  RB> the dead.  But he had to rely on HUMANS to spread the word?
AS> 
AS>  To keep it spread, certainly, unless He wants to baby-sit us forever,
AS>  appear again to each generation, etc.

He could have been the central figure in ALL tribal religions.
They all could have had a history that included a (1) son of
God that (2) took human sin upon himself and (3) died, that
they could have eternal life.  If that scenario is so important,
it should have been part of ALL tribal histories.  The favoritism
and limitations to ONE tribe is contrary to the concept of an
all encompassing god.

Instead, we have as many myths as we do cultures.  That indicates
that God is curiously limited in his approach or the development
of religion is a common human function.

AS>  RB> Many Christians act as if ONE lifetime without knowing Jesus
AS>  RB> is a travesty (even one YEAR).  But God was content to let
AS>  RB> 1500 years pass before the Americas heard his story?
AS> 
AS>  Evidently yes; so one can only conclude that He cannot hold them
AS>  responsible for what they cannot help.

God couldn't foresee that different races and cultures would
be reluctant to accept one particular middle eastern religion?
Why couldn't his 'message' be conveyed in a way that was
geographically and racially neutral?  A 'chosen people' is not
the surest way to reach ALL the world.

AS>  But according to Freud each of us are a trinity; id, ego, and superego.
I
AS>  see the different parts of the Trinity in much the same way.

You don't think the trinity might be a construct of HUMAN 
minds?  Wasn't there a lot of arguing many centuries ago
as to just where Jesus fit in the picture?

AS>  Hey, I have some Welsh blood, and trust me, sperm. Humping the BACK
is not
AS>  something we are famous for...

Can you sing "Delilah" like Tom Jones? 

AS>  The disciples lived with
AS>  Jesus, travelled with Him on the road, for between one to three years.
He
AS>  entrusted his mother to John. James, according to Paul, also saw JEsus,
AS>  and JAmes was Jesus' brother and later head of the church of Jerusalem.
AS>  Again, a brother would not be fooled by a passing resemblence.

Here's my latest addition to the 'practical answers for a
resurrected Jesus' file:  Jesus had a TWIN!  That's right,
either by deception or coincidence, Jesus' twin shows up
in town on the third day.  The bible mentions how Jesus
wasn't recognized at first.  That's because the twin wasn't
an exact match, but very close.  And when disciples are
grasping for saviors, 'close' will do.  Whaddya think? 

AS>  Or maybe...where dieties are perceived. There may be a difference.

And THAT is our fundamental difference.  You believe we 
'perceive' the reality of God while I think we 'generate'
that 'reality'.

TP> Funny that some believe that planets evolved from balls of gas. If

It is even funnier that some people believe that every cause ultimately
had to have a first, uncaused cause. That kind of thinking smacks of a
presumptous attitude about the universe that is simply laughable.

> Hmmmm...do you dash out the brains of children and rape the

TP> My God would never command me to do so. What makes you think He would?

The fact that he's commanded his chosen people to do so in the past,
according to your Bible.

> Do you have evidence for this hell?  Or heaven?  Why is it

TP> Physical evidence, no. Spiritual evidence, yes. I know because I know
TP> my God is real, and I know what He says to be true. 

How do you know these things?

TP> Simple. God gave the way, through His Son. It's pretty easy, but most
TP> choose not to do so because they think they're above doing what it
TP> takes. 

It's too bad about the first century Peruvians and Chinese, then, isn't

Actually it can be said in various ways:

der Shauer [as in rain]
or better yet die Dusche [as in taking a shower]

I'm sure there's more.  Despite the German addiction for rigidity [excluding
Kafka of course] while I was over there I heard various other words for
the same thing -- one of them being `Shampooniering.'

Not totally unlike my experience with Los Angeles. I was there only
long enough to get the hell out of it. (I came, I saw, I split.)

Your Detroit experience reminds me of a cartoon I saw once in 
Hustler. It consists of nothing more than a highway sign against
an urban background. The sign reads: 

Welcome to Detroit
Pussy
Drugs
Ammo
Next Three Exits

->  SearchNet's   i_ufo-l   Mailing List

Last night while I was flipping channels I caught some pictures of dead
animals on Univision, the Spanish-speaking cable channel (Primer
Impacto, the Current Affair rip-off, was the show).

I backed up and watched for a second, and it turned out to be a story
about chupacabras, the "Goat Sucker".

Did anyone who speaks Spanish catch this story?

I saw police/soldiers searching through the countryside at night. It
seemed there was some concern in the Puerto Rican community, and some
real effort to get to the bottom of it.  A few witnesses gave thier
story, too.

Why did it take 80 posts? I posted the complete source code

I'd post it again for your benefit, but I'm busy making funeral

You have only FOUR days left in order to destroy me with your

We have it here too. And Fiesta de Patrias (sp?) in September.
And just about every day named after a Catholic saint other
than Patrick.

KW> I can not stand mariachi bands .  

I go grocery shopping in a store that has mariachis wandering
around the aisles on weekends. It's real easy to forget what it
is you are looking for on the shelf when some idiot a few feet
away is blowing his guts out on a trumpet.

In a perverse way, I sort of like it. They don't have supermarkets
like this up north.

KW> On the other hand, I hate country music.  

Only thing I hate more is Rap and the other varients that pass for
"black" music nowadays. There is a great African American musical
heritage that ranges from Jazz to Gospel to R&B to MoTown/Soul. Why
so many have turned their backs on that to listen to cRap totally
escapes me.

Since the popular music industry always turns in the direction I
dread the most, I know it's only a matter of time before someone
records a Rap version of "Yer Cheatin' Heart".

Hi ALL: Well it appears things are escalating. The Games changed thou. I'm
honestly sitting wondering about alot of things.

On the Weeekly World News, channel 14 here in Boone, on saturday January
20th, a News story broke about a town in the Mountains of IDAHO in a very
rural section. Population between 1,200 to 1,500, was video taped by acouple
going there to visit their grandmother. Early in the morning approaching
the
town (Yet Un-named) they saw a huge pulsating Light over the town they thought
was a U.F.O., upon arriving every single person in the town was gone. Pets
leases lay without the animal complete with collar intact attached. Laudromats
were still drying clothes. It appeared everyone left in mere minutes. The
Town
was completely devoid of life.  The couple went on to state the Military
quickly came in and closed the town off and sealed the area answering NO
questions.

ANYONE HAVING ANY INFORMATION ON THIS PLEASE FORWARD IT TO ME!!!

I remember back thirty years ago hearing search and destroy missions were
tharfted in vietnam. Radar picked up a boogy, or foe fighter over the towns
area. When our troops went in everything was gone. Animals, people everything.

Then there was the small indian town in Canada on the Artic Circle where
this
also occured. In it the place was completely emptied of life also, and even
the cemetary was dug up.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
( What Does This Mean? )

It means people, things are going on that could cause panic, but should
not
be with held from the public. Stuff like this explains alot we are trying
to
figure out we are sifting through in the on going information and investigation.

In order to take that many people it would require a very BIG ship. Towns
that size have jails etc. To take everyone means these beings were out for
BODIES only. To me this represents a HARVEST. If this is occuring as the
data seems to validate we should be TOLD. If our government cannot stop
it, it's time to devulge what they know. To me their behavier is completely
irresponsible, and their secrey further puts them in as bad a light as those
beings doing this. People have a right to KNOW.

Send this around WE NEED MORE FACTS.

regards Walter

As if we needed further evidence. The above demonstrates that
Walter can't distinguish between the WWN and a genuine news report.

Not necessarily.  They would just have to be directed toward
certain major data sources, such as the NYSE, major banks, and
the like.

Printing out data bases is hardly the way to go.  What you say might

economic data. . . .

All you have to do is corrupt enough data bases so that nobody
knows whether theirs is trustworthy or not.  Corrupting them all
is hardly necessary.  If my data base doesn't agree with your
data base, we know at least one of them is wrong, but the truth
is, they might both be wrong.

Wait a minute...Did Christ say "Ok, forget all the old stuff, this is

said?  If your under a "new covenent" [sic], why does your Bible contain

the Old Testament?

MH> Shakespeare, for the most part, didn't write about real people who

"For the most part"...hmmm.  You would seem to agree with me to a 
certain extent, then.  How many stories of Shakespeare's *were* about 
his peers?  How much of your Bible regards stories about the authors' 
peers?  We can probably throw out the O.T., correct?  Now, what does 
that leave us with...the N.T.?  What are the projected dates of all the

books of the N.T. as they relate to their stories?

MH> For a more reasonable example, if I wrote a story about Ronald
MH>Reagan's  presidency, and invented a fictional vice-president and
MH>cabinet  members, and claimed that Reagan championed big government
MH>social  programs and zeroing out the defense budget, and tried to
MH>pass it off  as fact, would it hold up under scrutiny in 1996?

Not bad...get to work on it.  Perhaps, in 2000 years, it will be *just*

as sacred a document as your Bible, and people will be defending it as 
whole heartedly as you are defending *your* particular myths.  Throw a 
few translations in there, and see what that does for you book, as 
well:).

MH> MH> Furthermore, scholars have dated the composition of the three
MH> MH>synoptic  gospels (Matthew, Mark and Luke) within a range of a.d.
MH> MH>40 to a.d. 80  or so, with liberal scholars opting for later

MH> MH>cases. John's gospel is  variously dated anywhere from a.d. 60 to
MH> MH>a.d. 100.

MH> BK> Mike, you're out of your league.

MH> Not at all, Brian. I'm quite familiar with the various dating
MH>theories  and the strengths and weaknesses of each of them.

Hmmm...not only are you familiar with them, but you are able to able to

declare some weak, and some strong?  Again, *where* did you get your 
ThD?

MH> BK> Sure there is!  Your authors have plenty of *older* legend to
MH> BK> draw upon!   Take Mithra, for example.  Predate your legends by
MH> BK> 500 centuries, and  yet seem *awfully* similar.

MH> The Mithra story bears very little resemblance to Jesus. 

But enough resemblance to make the Jesus story to seem unoriginal.  Add

to that the plethora of *other* myths involving resurrection, healing 
the sick, etc, and Jesus is absolutely trite!  

MH>That theory
MH> has been soundly debunked among scholars, and only a few eccentrics

Really?  Do tell...your scholars (funny how they always seem to show up

when you need them) state that the Jesus story is absolutley original, 
and unlike the other myths of the day?

I'm sorry.  I have not come across any authors of scientific texts that

have felt that was important to the subject of the text to include any 
regard for the supernatural, positive or negative.  I've not read 
"Gravity is the reason things seem to fall to the earth, no gods are 
required".  So, it came as a surprise to me that your scientists were 
doing so.  I would not regard as credible *any* "scientist" who 
discusses things *outside* of this universe...that's hardly being 
objective.  Or did your "creator" create the universe from within the 
universe?  Try the ranch dressing...

Does Jesus make the distinction 'twixt your concept of "minimal" love, 
and real love?  

MH> BK> Now...do you love me?

Again, I disagree.  You don't know me well enough to love me.  I'd say 
you just bandy around the word "love" so you can be seen in a better

Wednesday February 07 1996 15:59, Karen Davis mumbled to Kenneth Mcabee:

KM>> Sure we are, and they happen all the time. Why the difference in his
KM>> behavior, he no longer has to deal with us directly, we have Christ
KM>> now, which they did not have in the old testiment. Not in the same
KM>> that we have him now. He died for our sins, and we go to heaven
KM>> through his death, not through our own works.

KD> Why can't he deal with us directly?

So you'de rather have it like the Old Testament? And in a why he does since
Christ is God, just a different form of God. And I didn't say that he couldn't
just that he doesn't have to. That is why he sent his Son to die on the
cross, so all we would have to do is accept him and go to heaven, instead
of the way it was in the old testament.

KD> It's clear in the Old Testament that he becomes increasingly more
KD> distant as time goes on. Why? It is NOT a sudden change with the advent
KD> of Christ.

First find out what each book is about. Then understand that when they created
the KJV they grouped the books together. Law, History, Poetry and Wisdom,
and Prophecy. You would start to understand it. That is only the way that
they grouped it together. Of course your going to find more direct involvement
with us in the books of the Law and History. Poetry and Wisdom, not much
involvemet there, then on to the Prophecy which the involvement level changes
according to the prophet. It's not that God dealt with us any less, it's
the way the books were arranged.

KD> He actually shows himself to Adam and Eve.

And Adam and Eve goofed up, and he could no longer walk with them.

KD> He speaks directly to Noah and Moses.

How else would he have gotten the Ark built or convienced Moses to go back
to a land where he was wanted for murder?

KD> He "opens eyes" and grants prayers in the later Bible [I opened just
KD> coincidentally to 2 Kings 6:17]. Very little direct speech.

2 Kings is history.

KD> COULD IT BE that this is classic mythology at work, with legendary
KD> status and magic increasing over time as we distance ourselves from
our
KD> ancestors?

Could it be that that is just the way it was arranged? Could it be different
styles of writting? Seems to me that by the New Testament, since Christ
was indeed God, that he was pretty involved with us then, and according
to the Revelation, he will be in the future as well. Maybe it's because
we have forgotten how to listen?

KM>> So you'de chooce hell?

KD> "I'de chooce hell", yes. I can not believe in or worship the god of
the
KD> Judeo/Christian Bible. I can not believe in him because it is obvious
to
KD> me that an omnipotent being has no need to engage in some of the acts
KD> attributed to him in the Bible.

But are you looking at the omnipotent being as he is, or trying to measure
him as you think he sould be?

KD> I will not worship him even if he exists
KD> because of the acts and words attributed to him in the Bible.

So you refuse him because he protected his people as he promised? You refuse
him because he wiped out those that would not worship him, and those that
worshipped other gods instead? I don't know what you see, but all I see
is God doing what he had to do.

KD> I refuse
KD> on principle to worship someone who tells me to be silent during worship
KD> and prevents me from teaching other adults.

Tells you to be silent during worship? First off I don't worship God in
public. I worship God in the privacy of my own home, not while I'm at church.
And I do get my chance to teach the other adults.

KD> I also, on principle, do not
KD> feel that creating entitles someone to worship.

Oh really? Who would deserve worship then? God only gave you the air you
breath, the water you drink and the food that goes into your belly. A planet
to live on, for that matter life itself. But that doesn't deserve worship?

KD> I respect but do not
KD> worship my parents.

Your parents might have had you, but they didn't create you.

KD> I will assist them in any way possible and will
KD> express my feelings for them whenever it is appropriate, convenient,
KD> and/or needed. I do not get down on my knees before them and sing their
KD> praises. I will not even consider doing for an unproven Creator what
I
KD> won't do for my parents.

Your parents are not gods, noone should expect you to worship them.

KD> Why does an omnipotent God need to send a sacrifice in order to forgive?

I don't know, that is the way it has to be, simply because he said it was.

KD> If we committed the sins, it is we who need to sacrifice.

And that is the way it was done in the old testament, however that sacrifice
pointed to the sacrifice of Christ. Since Christ died for our sins, it's
become easier to go to heaven, not harder.

KD> My parents are
KD> capable of forgiving nearly any act I might commit which hurts them,
KD> within limits. Why can't God forgive the same acts?

God can forgive, and he has told us how to get that forgiveness. It's funny
there are many here that belittle God because he said to man that man should
not kill, but God himself (who has the right) had to kill and it's such
a big deal because he did not (not my opinion) follow the laws that he gave
man. God said that if you sin you must die, and you condemn him for doing
what he said. God said I will sacrifice my Son so that you do not have die.
I have no idea why there must be the shedding of blood for sin, I'm not
God I am not qualified to tell you why God made it that way. All I can say
is that that is the way it is, that is what God said has to be done, so
that is the way that it must be.

KD> I haven't done
KD> anything worse to God than I have to my own parents. [Yes, I have indeed
KD> spoken against my parents, as I believe my mother physically abused
me
KD> as a child. I have also defied their authority.]

Sin comes down to one thing disobediance. If you did not have sin in your
life, you would not have even spoken against your mother, and she would
never have given you reason to believe that she physically abused you as
a child.

KD> Why does a perfect, omnipotent God admit to what we consider a character
KD> flaw in the 10 Commandments text themselves - he admits to being
KD> jealous!

Maybe you consider jealously a character flaw, I do not. I believe that
it is a natural feeling that goes right along with love.

KD> If he is perfect, then something that is godlike cannot be a
KD> character flaw.

So jealousy must not be a character flaw.

KD> In fact, he then goes on to state a commandment which
KD> contradicts that flaw - Thou Shalt not Covet. Well, he's Coveting other
KD> God's worshippers!

There is no other god.

KD> Why does a perfect, omnipotent God need to give us someone between him
KD> and us?

You forget that Christ said, "I and my Father are one" They are the same
being, just different forms of the same being.

KD> BTW - Please consider doing at least the most basic proofreading on
your
KD> messages. The second and third graders I teach would be able to find
KD> your errors.

Fine let them then.

That may be true, but can Dave tell you for sure that it really IS Mark
posting here under his own name...or Jim using Mark's name as another
alias? And would Mark admit to it if that were the case?

There really is a Lon Mabon (minus the 'S'), too. He is a bigot who believes
that capital punishment should be used for gays, just because they are gay,
female adulterers should be stoned and children killed for sassing their
parents. Maybe you didn't know that? Why did you think the choice of that
particular name is offensive to EVERYBODY with the exception of other
extreme right wing bigots? Anyone who would chose to use that name must
know
what it stands for.

-> So which are the good Christian apologists?  I'm a philosopher, and
-> I've studied Plantinga and Swinburne along with several lesser
-> thinkers, to list just the moderns.  I hope they weren't the ones
-> you were thinking of.

Well, many here would assert that there is no such thing....

But to answer your question, I would recommend Francis Shaeffer, Ravi Zacharias,
and even though I have only read a few smatterings of his work, I have heard
that Peter Kreeft is good.  I also have read just a little of Plantinga,
(not enough to really give me any feel for him). Another couple of names
you might check out are Norman Geisler and Francis Beckwith.

Kill the heathens as soon as their infection is discovered.  That will prevent
them from suffering as the disease progresses.  It's the Christian thing
to do.

Speaking of Christian ways, have you ever read about how European Christians
were partlly responsible for the spread of the Black Death?  Seems they
believed cats were Satanic, and killed every cat they saw.  Naturally, the
rat population exploded, along with the rat fleas that carried plague!

Hi Hector.
You think of me as a foolish man because of my belief in the
bible and God Jesus Christ?  If he doesn't exist why do so many hate
him then, or the people that follow his word?  You and others have
fallen in to Satan's trap!  He confuses the truth in your eyes, so
that you don't understand what is going on.
But do not be troubled you can be saved!  Like these fellows that
were sinners:
Acts 2:36-38
Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath
made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.
{37} Now when they heard , they were pricked in their heart,
and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men 
brethren, what shall we do?  {38} Then Peter said unto them, Repent,
and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the
remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. 

Hector read the bible because it is the manual to the program of
life!

Hello Ryan
Ryan if you would have taken the time yourself to read the bible
you would have found out that what this fellow wrote in that book
was false.  You are among many that quote his book with out doing
the research yourself.  I will not answer to it because I know it to
be false, all you have to do is do some reading of a good book the
bible to know it as well.
God word is the truth case closed!

SB> :If god 'hates the sin but loves the sinner, how come he doesn't send

SB> the sin to hell and save the sinner whom he (supposedly) loves?:

Greetings once again.
If you would have taken the time to read the bible like I
suggested you would have found out that Jesus gives us a chance to
participate in our salvation, and get rid of our sins.
Acts 2:36-38
Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath
made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.
{37} Now when they heard , they were pricked in their heart,
and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men 
brethren, what shall we do?  {38} Then Peter said unto them, Repent,
and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the
remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. 

The answers are in the bible just waiting your you to discover them.

Hi Karen.
First off of course the bible is the best set of plans, they are
from God.
2 Timothy 3:16
All scripture  given by [inspiration] of God, and 
profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for
instruction in righteousness: 
Of course it gave role models to follow for women.  Please take the
time to read the bible it would be the best thing you could do for
yourself right now.  But I will give you a small eg.  of a role
women can play in our world.
1 Corinthians 14:34
Let your [women] keep silence in the churches: for it is not
permitted unto them to speak; but  to be under
obedience, as also saith the law. 

You see women do have a role may it be a silent one.

Hi Martin.
You ask for none bible evidence, and people tell me I think in
circles.  Do you believe in Enstins theories?  How do you know they
are correct?
If you were to answer, because I can put them to partice and see the
results.  I would have to say try doing so with the bible and see

Hi Dan.
What evidence would make you happy?  What would you have to see
or here to make you believe?
I look into the pages of the bible know that it is true.  I pray to
God and he answers me, I need no more evidence.

John 14:13
And whatsoever ye shall [ask in my name], that will I do, that the
Father may be glorified in the Son. 

Keep trying to understand Dan, it will be worth it in the end!

Hi Don
What you ask me for, none bible evidence.  Why do you have to
get evidence from another sourse? 
eg.  If your math teacher showed you that 1 + 1 = 2 why would you
ask someone else?  I would have to say that the math teacher is
correct and follow that theory, because they showed me it was
correct.
God gave us his word.  So why would I go looking for someone else to
tell me it is true?
2 Timothy 3:16
All scripture  given by [inspiration] of God, and 
profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for
instruction in righteousness: 
I can believe in what I know to be true.
Brad

Hi Karen
You are sadly mistaken, Jesus is the only God.
Isaiah 44:6
Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of
hosts; I  the first, and I  the last; and beside me  no God. 
You should never bow down to any other so called Gods Karen.
Matthew 4:10
Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written,
Thou shalt [worship] the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou
serve. 
Jesus is God the only God for all times.
Revelation 1:8
I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord,
which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. 

As far as my education goes, I do agree I am always learning
something new every day. Of course it is something new from God.

Tell me why the bible isn't evidence Martin?  If you follow it
and do what is written in it you will get results.  So how could
that not be evidence?  If I read a cook book and followed the

Hi Dan.
I am not the one using circular Logic.  I ask you and others why
can you not follow God's word and see for yourself, the results.  Do
you have to have everyone else do the work for you?
If you read the bible and followed what is laid out in it for you,
then you could get the same results as me.
A scientist does his own research.  Go to church and pray, for

No, he left out that one phrase altogether.  It was LYNDA who
quoted various translations that used other words -- primarily,
the word "calamity," if I remember correctly.  

On a more subjective note, do you see any real qualititative
difference between "evil," "confusion," and "calamity" in
this context.  Damned if I can see much.  Regardless of which
word you use, the god of the OT beat his chest and bragged
about being the guy responsible for giving humans a hard time.

I should think a bit of cayenne in water would be very effective,
whether in a spray bottle or not, if one's aim is pretty good.

Paul Davies seems to be a bit of a creationist poster boy around
here. I think Mikey has cited him being awarded the "prestigeous"
Templeton Prize as some kind of "proof" that Davies has mainstream
acceptance.

PHILANTROPIST BUYS GOD'S WAY INTO COLLEGE

Mutual fund multi-millionaire Sir John Templeton
is putting his money where his mouth is.  Or vice
versa.  Mainstream Protestantism's most lavish  
philantropist will spend $1 million a year funding
new "Science and Religion" courses at about 100
colleges and universities.  Front and center on one
of the syllabi:  Templeton's own book, _The God Who 
Would be Known_.

His new course has been compared to the Bass family's
failed effort to redirect the teaching of Western
civilization at Yale -- only it affects more schools
and involves more direct control over course content.

Templeton is also known for funding the world's
largest cash award, the oxymoronic Templeton Prize
for Progress in Religion.  Recipients of the $1 
million prize have included Watergate felon-turned-
fundamentalist Chuck Colson and theistic physicist 
Paul Davies.

Source:  Spring 1996 Secular Humanist Bulletin, Vol 12, Number 1.

It looks like the only thing about the Templeton Prize that is
"prestigeous" is the amount of $$$ involved.

KM> No it is in no way lying, obscuring the evidence of his existence,

Then why do you have a Bible?  Without the Bible as evidence who knows what
god you would be worshipping.

And your response to Mark 16:15-18 already shows you have no faith in even
that bit of evidence.

You may not believe this but you are almost well.  All us ex-fundies fought
the hardest as the lest shreads of our illness were torn from us.  At the
time
we also had to resort to your tactics, turning reality on and off to make
sense
of reality.

You just allowed your god to lie above by obscurring evidence.  Either god
is
lying or the book is lying.  You chose to make god the liar rather than
the
book.

Shows just what you have faith in, and it isn't some god.  It is a book
written
by mere men.  Now if you honestly believed that god created the universe,
why
do  you deny the only unequivical evidence he has left us of the event,
i.e.
the creation itself?  Why do you refuse to believe god's universe if you
say
you have faith in god?

KM>> trace. You cannot prove to me that he does not exist, because first

PS> Of course I can't, largely for the same reasons that I can't prove that
PS> the Sun won't turn into a bran muffin next Tuesday.

KM> Thank you for being truthful.

Sun's don't turn into bran muffins and you still are short one god.

KM>> off I believe he can do anything. Telling me for instance that there

PS> How nice for you. Belief isn't equal to evidence, Ken. Do you understand
PS> this proposition?

KM> Evidence is not needed for eternal life Preston, Faith is.

And you can't show one dead person enjoying this eternal life.

KM>> flood the entire world does not exist on this world, doens't mean
KM>> diddly. Why? Because I don't believe by evidence I believe by faith.

PS> It must be nice to be ignorant for your god, Ken. Are you beginning
to

me
PS> to surrender my mind, I can clearly see that I have better things to

KM> I've never argued you to surrender your mind. Expecting God to show
KM> himself to you is no different than the Pharisee's asking Christ for
a
KM> sign. Remember what he told them? "An evil and adulterous nation
KM> seeketh after a sign". Anytime a sign was asked of him, he said he
KM> would not give it. Not to the Pharisee's, not to Satan, so why would
KM> you expect him to show you a sign Preston?

But according to your religion he did give them a sign, he rose from the
dead.
He healed the sick and turned water into wine.   All signs, or at least
that
is what we are told.  

Just like faith healers claims of today, under scrutiny they can't do it.
Your
god is toothless under the cold scrutiny of science.

We will all, those who have
KM> faith and those who have not, see God one day.

Mark 16:15-18.

But not when we expect
KM> it, but rather when God wants to. 

And again Mark 16:15-18.  If you drink I'll know exactly when to expect
it and
your god won't be able to do a thing about it.

KM>> Faith says that God can do anything, and that he could even create
a

PS> Faith says that there's an invisible pink hippo sitting in the room
with
PS> you right now. So what?

KM> Sorry, faith has nothing to do with invisible pink hippo's, you can
KM> try and pervert faith all you want Preston, it will do no good with
KM> me.

It is not a perversion of faith.  It is what faith is.

You should have learned that already. And before you tell me that
KM> I will never convert you, I never came into this echo expecting to
KM> convert anybody. 

Then the only reason you came here is for us to cure you.

KM>> flood without leaving a single trace that it ever happened. We believe

PS> Faith says that that hippo can even *fly*.

KM> Yes, and faith says that you can move a mountian if you have enough
of
KM> it. 

Re-read your Bible fundie.  It says,  "Even if your faith is smaller than
a
mustard seed...".  

So I guess you have much less faith than that.

KM>> that the scriptures that the Bible came from are all written about
KM>> this same God. So if you ask me for evidence I will show you the

PS> That's a screwed-up god you worship, then. A guy who's all fire and
PS> brimstone for half the book, and all bunnies and light with an ominous
PS> side for the other half?

Preston!  God got a shot of leg from Mary at the half-way point.  It mellowed
him out.

KM> All fire and brimstone for half? Have you read the same book that I
KM> have? 

He was whacking everyone right and left that weren't his  people and didn't
treat his people much better.

KM>> scriptures, you want me to give you evidence of a made up piece of
KM>> paper that you claim to have saying I owe you money? Fine I'll see
you
KM>> in court. As for whether God exist or not, I'll see you in his court
KM>> as well, it'll be interesting to see how it turns out.

PS> It will indeed, as there is yet to be offered any substantial supporting
PS> evidence for this Bible thing of yours. But then, I don't have to worry
PS> about collecting my $1.8 billion from you. After all, I have faith
PS> that the note exists. Isn't that nice? 

KM> Like I said Preston, it doesn't take evidence, it takes faith.

So why does your religion need a Bible if it takes faith?  And as your fear
of Mark has shown, you don't have much in the faith department.

If you
KM> were a Christian and read your Bible you would know that already.

You are lying here.  You said it takes faith.  You didn't say anything about
written records be they fact or fiction.  

You
KM> would know what Abraham told the rich man as he lifted his eyes up in
KM> hell and asked Abraham to send Lazarus to his brothers to prove to
KM> them that hell existed. Abraham told him that they have Moses and the
KM> prophets, if they would not believe them, then the would not believe
KM> even if someone rose from the dead.

You have the Night Before Christmas yet you do not believe in Santa, and
I can
show you a room full of them.

Nice Biblical ploy.  Since they couldn't raise a dead man, claim that I

wouldn't believe it.  Even the Bible has a propensity for man-like 
constructions of straw.

Interesting that there are many
KM> people today that claim that they died and saw heaven or Christ or
KM> God, and nobody believes them..... 

Because they weren't all the way dead yet stupid.  Note the lack of people
breaking out of cemetaries after a year and telling us about Jesus.  The
number
to date in all of history is exactly zero.

The neuron has divided!  Scientists are skepticle.  They point out that

neuron's don't normally divide.  They suspect that the original Staal family

In a hastily called news conference the Staal collective replied, "Science

Hello Kelsey.
I can help you there Kelsey, JuJu isn't a God. I know this to be 
true because there is only one God, Jesus.
Isa 44:6 (KJV)
Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of 
hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.

If you would only take the time to read his book, you would know this to

be true also.

Hi Ryan.
I have no delusions. I know the true. If you would read his book 
you would also know the true. And the truth will set you free.
I think you do care and are interested in God.

Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I told thee from that time, and

yea, there is no God; I know not any.

Hi Preston.
Preston you act like I am making this stuff up. Saying that I 
claim these things. When this is far from the truth. I am only trying to

pass on some really good information to you. 
Acts 2:38 (KJV)
Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in 
the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive

the gift of the Holy Ghost.

Acts 2:39 (KJV)
For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are 
afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.

So you can see here Preston, that the promise also includes you!
Don't be fooled Preston there is to much at stake.
Brad

Hi Preston.
You want more evidence that there is a God, Named Jesus. Ok go 
look in the mirror. If it wasn't for God creating Adam you would not 
exist.
Gen 2:7 (KJV)
And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into

his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

All the information you will ever need is within the pages of the Bible

Preston. I hope some day you will read the book for yourself and 
discover God.

Hello again Preston.
This may help Preston. What evidence do you have that the bible 
is false and not the word of God?

You see I have the bible and God to back up what I have said. I have 
only quoted what was in his book, I didn't make any of this up.

Hi Kerry.
Kerry, can you prove to me this book I am reading called the 
bible is wrong? I tell you the truth as I know it, that the bible is 
true. Many people have tried to prove other wise, but couldn't. If you 
would only take the time to read God's word, I am sure you would have a

different point of view about it.
John 8:45
45  And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.
46  Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye

not believe me?
47  He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not, 
because ye are not of God.

Get to know your Lord, so he can get to know you!

That's only true in some parts of the US. We had the Willamette
River rise to within a hair of flood stage yesterday, threatening
the downtown businesses with severe water damage. People came from
all over the city to the seawall to fill sandbags and place them
so that the height of the seawall was, for all intents and
purposes, raised about a foot or so, just to protect those
inventories. Also, people crossed the Columbia River into
Washington State to do the same for those downtown businesses in
Vancouver, Washington. We ended up on the National News because of
our neighborliness. Opening a door hardly raises an eyebrow in
these-here parts. We are a city of over a million with a
population that still thinks they live in a hicktown. 

Were the people paid for their hard work? NO! They did it because
it needed doing.

My "church-masters" don't hide anything from me, as I can clearly think
and see things for myself. Contrary to what you apparently think, I don't
happen to be enslaved, mentally, psychologically, or physically, by my church
leaders (pastors), or anyone else.

It is meant to be an identifier, as some Baptist churches have been notorious
for just teaching whatever doctrine comes to mind at the time and fits their
purpose, without even cracking a Bible open.

I have never labelled anyone as "False Christian Scum", and neither has
the church I happen to attend.

I am quite sure you have never seen the front lawn of my church. I believe
there is a sign that says "First Bible Baptist Church", and there is also
a small sign next to it advertising the church's day care center. I don't
recall seeing a sign or anything else saying "All other churches are false
Christian scum".

I have never in my life called anyone an "evil heathen". I don't claim to
be better than you or anyone else. If don't need to point out other peoples
faults, as I have plenty of my own to try to keep in check.
I am not trying to earn my way to heaven by good works. That would imply
that I think I'm better than the next guy, and I don't.

So I guess you really believe what I said in jest, that living things evolved,
and knew they needed functional organs such as eyes, ears, etc; and formed
them out of necessity? How can something that can't even see light, or hear
sound, for example, know that such medium exists, and develop sensory organs
to accomodate? Quite illogical. Quite humorous...

Then what is the present theory? Present it, and I will give my views on
it.

No, I stand by what I said. I know these things. My Lord has proven Himself
to me over and over and over again...

Why debate about religion when we could talk about Jesus?
