Ah, Choosing Life, but trucks are designed by people, built by and for people, operated by people, stolen by people, destroyed by people, coveted by people. Though the oneness is not of substance it is one of "mystical bonding" a very kewl term I invented just now after lots of intense thought and prayer. So, mystical bonding overrides you're purely rationalistic argument, once again proving that God trumps all. I said that so that Donald Trmp will read it and give me an important job firing people and waving at angry mobs out of my castle window.

Hi Neverending. I wish I could tell you that I was so savvy and cynical that I saw through it all from the get-go. Alas, I believed it fervently. I spoke in tongues, interpreted tongues ("Alla walla bing bang boo bap doo" means "You're way kewl n stuff" in Angelese) Martin

OK, so let's test the Creationism advocates out here.............
by 5go ini responce to this post .
i'll start it off, then someone else give them a different challenge if you can think of any.. please give definitive examples that by evolution, a species has changed into something else.
give two separate findings by scientists, and it can't include any comments like "so we believe", "so we conclude that", or "the evidence shows that there could have been".....the wts has those copyrighted.. try and give un-doctored photographic proof, where possible, etc.

Darwin FishMocked by Fundies No MoreI honestly feel sorry for the Creationists aka "Intelligent Designers". Really. When I was one, we never had to deal with what they've had to deal with in April 2006. In just one month, scientists dug up, if not the friggin "Darwin Fish" (pictured at right in new form) then its close cousin. They also dug up the remains of a snake with hind legs, a bird with hands at the end of its wings, and to top it off, they also dug up yet another transition in the evolution of man from primates. Any one of these is enough to put Ken Ham in the unemployment line or as the lead for "Thank You For Smoking II", but all in one month! Science hasn't dealt the Fundies and their book of religious ju-ju a blow this severe since Columbus failed to sail off the edge of the world! -

Let's assign a number to the Great Crowd!
by Nathan Natas ina great crowd, which no man was able to number, out of all nations and tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne..." -- revelation 7:9. .
from studies in the scriptures, volume 7, the finished mystery: .
the math is indisputable: 144,000 "priests" x 2,860 levites per priest = 411,840,000 "levites.

Hi Anti-Christ. If you're the Anti-Christ then actually you're the REAL Christ because the Anti-Christ realizes that the "real" Christ is a phoney! The Anti-Christ tells everyone "YOU YOURSELVES are the Christ! You all have Christ Nature!" What is Christ Nature? Ask the Anti-Christ. Oops. I mean, ask yourself.

Lt.Cmdr.Lore. Great screen name. Too bad Lore never took Data's place by passing himself off as Data. It would have made for a riveting plot twist to the Next Gen. (There's a pun there with the word "rivet" although Data and Lore were far advanced beyond rivets) I met Brent Spiner shortly after his character Data was given emotions, and I told him the character had been ruined for me. "The tin man found his heart. End of story."
I felt all sorts of grand feelings as an evangelical and became quite addicted to them. I would put myself through the most grotesque spiritual catharsis several times a week, writhing on the floor, confessing my sins right down to failing to signal a left turn, in order to re-create the feelings I had as a new Christian. I finally snapped out of it, realized that it was some sort of nearly psychotic behavior, plus an addiction, and stopped. A lot of people my age becamse Christians during the Jesus Movement of the late sixties and early seventies because it was a powerful high that was "real." Alas, it too faded and had to be forced to occur again and again via boisterous singing and clapping, dancing in the Spirit, speaking in tongues, going up to the altar to confess sins, all kinds of activities designed to recreate the conversion experience. It was fairly crazy. Understatement. I remember a moment of clarity, when a large fat woman began to vigorously jump up and down, red faced, and screaming "JESUS DELIVER ME FROM THE DEMON OF CHOCOLATE!" It was a very important moment for me. ("She's daft Maritn and you're daft for being here with these daft people.") -

Hi Onlycurious. I think maybe I was unclear. I accept as a "real Christian" anyone who professes to be one. I don't have criteria to jdge someone who says they are a Christian beyond their profession of faith. I was discussing my experience over the years of having conservative Christians tell me this person or that person "Isn't a real Christian" because of some misdeed by a public person. I always believed the person performing the misdeed was indeed a real Christian since all Christians perform misdeeds large and small. I concluded that saying "He wasn't a eal Christian" was simply a way to distance Christianity from any bad PR.
In other words, I'm not the one saying "They're not a real Christian."
