Yea, and thus spaketh the Goreacle: 
"And there shalll be a pestilence of heat upon the land, upon both Man and beast, and yea, it shall smite the land such that the icecaps shall melt, unless thoust does sacrifice thy automobile and thy factory and thoust shall not support all thy lobbyists that fund my opposition, and, if thou shalt not, ye shall surely die, or, if thou shalt not die, thou shalt make me very angry due to my being exposed as a charlatan, and the whole world shall know that I drink the Kool-Aid." BA- And the story ended happily ever after...

i try to give both sides of issues a fair read.. all of you who have been convinced by scientific evidence that global warming has been caused by man and can be stopped by man should read the above.. how about specific comments pertaining to the above for a change rather than simply policy wank rants??.

His energy bill is $0.00
by Brother Apostate ini just read about a guy in nj who lives in the nation's first solar-hydrogen house.
the technology this civil engineer has been able to string together solar panels, a hydrogen fuel cell, storage tanks, and a piece of equipment called an electrolyzer provides electricity to his home year-round, even on the cloudiest of winter days:.

BrentR,
Excellent points.
From my perspective, alternative forms of energy are certainly needed.
It is important, however, that we at least attempt to honestly understand their impact verses conventional energy sources.
It seems a large segment of the population does not understand that "the grass is always greener" applies to energy as well.
If we aren't honestly evaluating their impact, then we stand to make matters worse, not better, for future genererations.
Those ignorant of these facts are easily swayed by politicized "science", funded by lobbyists whose interests won't be what is best, but who stands to profit therefrom.
The short answer is we must continue exploring alernatives, and do our best to evaluate all the benefits and risks of each

Do you believe in God? oR Jesus?
by themonster123 inso....do any of you believe in some person in the sky floating around called jesus?
or having a relationship with that person (or god) who is in some other dimension apparantly?
being a witness, they stressed so much having a relationship with "jehovah" and all that.

I believe in God and Christ.
Are they different or the same?
It doesn't matter for salvation.

Yes, lots of aerobics- hiking, running, jogging, bicycling, etc. That is the only way to burn fat off.

OMG! Bro A. Now I know we've got to get together one day. This fine line out of Montreal was what inspired me to start this thread. Sad to say supplies of said delicacy are dried up in the castle.
Sounds good!
There's a distributor down my way that sells the variety case by Unibroue, as well as a brewpub that often has some of them on tap, and always available by the bottle!
Cheers,

Opinions can be categorized as having a right wing or left wing bias.
Facts can not be categorized as having a right wing or left wing bias.
There are a plethora of opinions on GW, yet very few facts to indicate other than a small percentage of Global Warming is caused by human activity.

Taking One for the Team
by Perry inthe wts has figured out that if you bring jesus out once a year, and create a "showy display", then the rank and file will be sufficiently convinced that the jw's hold jesus as a central figure in their beliefs.
to anyone else, it can immediately be seen for what it is.
a publicity stunt.

Brother Apostate
Perry,
Great post. It is obvious that you directed it at current JWs that may be lurking here.
It's true, they reject Christ in a ritual of loathing of what he said to do if we accept His sacrifice.
If you accept Christ, and the redeeming power of His shed blood, in order to enter into His covenant, you must drink His blood and eat His flesh.
Instead, they mock His death by observing rather than partaking.
How very sad that they utterly miss the point of something so simply stated by Him.
BA
PS- To those who claim to be "Christian" and don't follow Christ's clearly stated instructions, how do you live with your hypocrisy?
