IF Jehovah indeed made the world with everything in it did he make it perfectly the 1st time he tried to create an atom, a horse, a monkey,.....a human? He did everything through Jesus, so Jesus was his co worker, co creator, NOT the Master Artist but a lower one. Begs the question -Would Jesus get it all right the 1st stroke? ...The Bible says every house has its builder and the builder of all is YHWH, If he is perfect that would mean he made no mistakes the 1st time.. But wouldnt u want him to have made mistakes and improve his creation while he was creating it? Not so perfect anymore eh?

This painting titled, “The Artist in His Studio: Designing Birds”, is my contribution to the Intelligent Design debate (The second image is a detail from the painting).
Leonardo DaVinci noted how patterns in nature are repeated in many areas. It occurred to me that evolution resembled the artistic process. I wondered if my own artistic experience might represent a smaller fractal pattern of creation.
In the painting I use the traditional God figure to symbolize higher consciousness or intelligence, whatever that may be. But if early life had a designer, it wouldn’t be the Biblical God who snaps his fingers until everything appears fully finished. No, he would have been bored silly with himself! The Artist Creator would take his time, enjoying the artistic process, evolving ideas, making improvements, changing his mind (about keeping dinosaurs around for example), and even leaving things unfinished, as he is distracted by other ideas.
Here, the "Great Artist" has tossed the dinosaurs in the trash, but he realizes that the dinosaur leg might serve well for the birds. (As you may know, birds share the same leg designs as certain dinosaurs.) Physical similarities among animals need not imply common ancestry. Instead, they can be viewed as an artist’s “style”, those commonalities we see in all the works of any particular artist.
In the sky, a bird carries a string in its beak, a reference to string theory, the idea that all matter is created by different types of vibrating strings of energy. To me, this sounds like creative energy or vibrating brainwaves. Perhaps the big bang is simply someone’s brainstorm, their “great inspiration” for our universe. The universe expands rapidly, with excited artistic energy, becoming as large as is necessary to accommodate the creative ideas that fill it. This all occurs within the Creator’s “mind” and is supported by new theories of quantum physics suggesting that matter is really more like thought.
Man has the same ability to create, but on a smaller scale. Fractal images in the painting represent my own theory that we are all “fractal gods”, with universes inside each of our own heads, complete with creatures and beings with universes inside their heads, and so on. This fractal pattern repeats forever, perhaps in both directions. In the painting, the Creator’s red sneaker and modern art tools reinforce the idea that we share similarities (in our ability to create) with our own Creator.
Another feature of this painting are the numerous birds hidden in the rock formations. When I had to invent hundreds of animals for a project called Grumparar’s the New Creatures (3 of them appear in the painting), I used a trick where I would find new ideas by looking at scribbles. It’s similar to the way we can perceive animals and objects in the clouds. If you’d like to see more of my paintings, visit: tebreitenbach.com -

For Those That Married JW, Did You Have Sex Before Your Wedding?
by Good Girl or Bad Girl? ini'm sure this has been covered before.
i'm wondering, though, how many who got married as a jehovah's witness actually waited for their wedding day?
it's for a "good cause," namely my peace of mind.

Ok i wont post any death metal love songs but this is MY all time fav theme fromlove story
http:Where do I begin,
to tell the story of how great a love can be?
The sweet love story that is older than the sea.
The simple truth about the love she brings to me.
Where do I start?
With her first hello!
She gave a meaning to this empty world of mine.
There’d never be another love, another time.
She came into my life and made a living fine.
She fills my heart . . .
She fills my life with very special things,
where angel's soar, with wild imaginings.
She fills my soul with so much love,
that anywhere I go, I’m never lonely.
With her along, who could be lonely?
I reach for her hand, it’s always there . . .
How long does it last?
Can love be measured by the hours in a day?
I have no answers now, but this much I can say,
I know I’ll need her 'till the stars all turn away
and she’ll be there . . .
She’ll be there . . .

IR Soldering System Low cost, modular flexible Infrared
SMT Rework Station sra-solder.comUpdate: I've had many inquiries for more information and also from people insinuating that the photo is a hoax, so I wanted to provide an original (but resized photo) for further evaluation.
I was using a Hoya R72 infrared filter on my Olympus C-2100 digital camera. (F/2.8 - ISO 200) I was zoomed in, since the cloud was rather far away. The shot was taken in Southern New Jersey, and I was aiming in a SSW direction. It was only enhanced as far as color correction and contrast. I used a vignette correcting plug-in to lighten the edges of the image where the IR filter casts shadows. I think I also got rid of a hot pixel that was on the arm area... you can see it on the new photo I'm posting since that was left as it came out of the camera.
I saved the color corrected version of the image over the original, so I have now included a different, unedited shot of the hand taken moments later as the fingers of the hand began to fade. A plane is passing through it (or more likely above it) in this one. It is not as sharp, and I did not color correct it or use contrast enhancement like I did on the original one posted. The pink sky is an effect of the IR filter, which I had also corrected in the shot I posted. You can see how the enhancement is needed to correct the color and bring up the details.
The cloud was one small wispy cloud that was rather far away. The IR filter helped to make it visible. It's not a hoax. It's fine if you don't think it was real. For the record, I'm not claiming that this is anything but an oddly shaped cloud caught at just the right moment in time. Oh, and it is resized for the web using Photoshop Elements, but I don't really consider that "Photoshopping". Anyone who would like a copy of the larger version of either image is welcome to email me. If you use the images or post them anywhere, please credit the photo accordingly.
