a farmer from saskatchewan (canadian praries) dies and goes to hell.
the devil goes right to work and puts him in a firey lake, and leaves.
he returns an hour later and sees this farmer just sitting comfortably relaxing, while everyone around him was in agonizing pain.
You make syrup from trees, you have big police men on horses, you have guns but dont shoot each other like americans do, you speak french for some reason (I dunno - why would you WANT to?). ; You have snow and bears.Did I miss ANYTHING at all out? ; Huh?
Laissez le bon temps roulez.

I got it.
The Stanley Cup was first given by Lord Stanley. You Brits should learn your colonial history, you did conquer 1/3 of the world after all. *sigh* I guess we colonials aren't important enough (I don't blame you either, Canadian history is dull).
has anyone read the bible fraud?
it looked like an interesting read and just wondered if any of you read it and what you thought of it.

No, but I can extrapolate from the title that it is an obvious polemic.
here is a very insightful article from ken ham....at the end is my own testimony in capsule form.
when the person you talk to on creation insists that you leave the bible out of it, they are really saying the deck should be stacked one way.
(my note: you've heard it this way, "religion does not speak on science at all.
Galileo showed facts" - but was nearly burned at the stake beacuse it was alleged it contradicted the bible
The real debate was between Aristotlean and Copernican astrology and the real problem lay with Galileo proclaiming Copernican astrology to be truth without sufficient evidence.
He even published a book in the vernacular stating that it was truth. Now books in the vernacular weren't for the learned, but the common masses. It's like coming up with a new scientific hypothesis without even submitting it for peer review (all of which was done in Latin).
You have to remember, there were people, scientists even, who didn't like Copernican astrology. It just happened that these were in the Inquisition.
But Galileo did have some friends, like the Pope (Urban, not the one before) and St. Robert Bellarmine (a powerful cardinal) who said:
"I say that if a real proof be found that the sun is fixed and does not revolve round the earth, but the earth round the sun, then it will be necessary, very carefully, to proceed to the explanation of the passages of Scripture which appear to be contrary, and we should rather say that we have misunderstood these than pronounce that to be false which is demonstrated."
teddy is jennie's almost-2-year-old hamster, which i know is old for a hamster.
last week when we cleaned his cage i noticed quite an odor about him and the cage, so i gave him a quick bath using a drop of dog shampoo and holding him in my hand to minimize trauma.
he seemed to take it well and fluffed up nicely, but i noticed while i was bathing him that his tummy was almost hairless and seemed a bit scabby.. last night he was walking around his cage kind of hunched over, like he's favoring his tummy.
Almost impossible to tell for a hamster. Maybe it's a bladder infection or a cancer.
remember when god told solomon that what ever he asked for, he would give him?
we know what solomon asked for.
if god posed the same question for you, what would you ask for?.
Money, power, and women.
Although, I'd make a horrible Scarface.
i don't know what happened.... but my 'puter just got hammered!
i got some kind of virus or spyware or something.... i have used several "anti-spyware" programs to try and "fix" it...to no avail...i've had microsoft anti-spyware since it came out, and it's up to date.
i tried to install norton 2004 internet security... can't even get it fully loaded.
And this is when you format your hard drive...

i responded thusly:dear [name removed for privacy],.
Well, at least this person's insanity can provide us with a little entertainment.
Good read.

You live in Australia, go see some nature! Some sharks, some wildlife, some desert. How about a picnic dinner in the desert, of course, I bet there's lots of snakes there and it's probably not a good idea, but anywhoo.
If you live in a big city, go to a good pizza place and then walk around. Possibly go to a pub after walking.
