I went to the funeral of my beloved grandfather when I was eight years old. It was my first encounter with death. I thought to myself, "That's gonna be me sooner or later."
Eat, drink, and be merry, folks.

Have you ever had " a moment of clarity"?
by elderelite inthese moments are something that not eveyone has experianced, but if you have they are with you every day.
a true moment of clarity is not something you live once.
you live it every time you think of it.

I don't know about a bonafide nervous breakdown, but I went through some serious depression during my teen years (1970's era). Undiagnosed and untreated, of course. Looking back, I think I unknowingly used music as a self-treatment.

The leadership is lost - they need a new Freddy to give some impetus and a new Knorr to give direction.
You would think there would be no shortage of loonies to fill the vacuum.

What if God's existence was PROVEN TO BE TRUE?
by nicolaou inthis isn't a 'prove god exists' thread, it's a 'what if' thread .
what if god's existence could be proven beyond any doubt?
what if god were to actually show himself so that nobody could doubt his existence?.

I'd examine the proof and adjust my beliefs accordingly.
But like someone else said above, it ain't gonna be that warm and fuzzy fella from the OT. </sarcasm>

How to Pray?
by brotherdan ini've been learning a bit about the early jews perspective on prayer and how it applied to jesus' model prayer in matthew 6. it's facinating to me.
sometimes i forget how important prayer is to the christian in more than just asking for things and thanking god for things.
i wanted to list a few perspectives the jews had on prayer and how we can benefit from it.. fist, they thought prayer should incorporate love and praise.

NiceDrean: My point (or part of it) is that praying for someone is the same thing as doing nothing to help them.

Willie Nelson is not 85. I think he's more like 77. Splitting hairs, I know.

Show me a beautiful married woman and I'll show you a guy who's tired of poking her.
There are actual physical causes of ED, but the biggest cause in an otherwise healthy male is familiarity.

Well, that depends on what the meanings of "are" are.
Huh?
