they have some politicians with good foresight in sweden and they are on course to becoming totally oil free in 15 years, even vehicles will not use gasoline, and given the tripling of oil prices in 10 years that is a wise decision, after all oil will run out sooner or later.
already only a third of its energy comes from oil.
if only more countries were as environmentally sensitive, instead of bush just saying that the usa is addicted to oil he should do something about it.
I think that is the best political news I’ve heard all year.
I hope thay can do it without geting into nuke energy. The storing of extremely hazardous waste material for a period of time that is over 7 times longer then recorded history seems like a bad idea to me.

13:8 jeru version "love does not come to an end.
but if there are gifts of prophesy, the time will come when they must fail: or the gift of languages, it will not continue forever; and knowledge, for this too, the time will come when it must fail.
When we stand before the lord we have no need of faith. When we have been given grace there is no need of hope. In the end love is all that is left us.
In the words spoken by M.L.K. jr. and made famous by john Lennon “all we need is love, love is all we need”

any electricians out there?
my fiance and i are going to have a panel upgrade and all rewriring in our house.
the house is an old craftsman built some time in the 30s here in california.
i think you got some good advice from craftsman on this bord.
I’m not an electrician but I am a carpenter and construction supervisor. the biggest mistake people make is to use bids from unknown contractors. I know we are told to get 3 bids and take the lowest one but you get what u pay for. if you don’t have the work you want done detailed out you can’t know for sure what the bidder is selling you as skilled installers, or if the materials are of the same quality as your higher bidders. Lots of the time a contractor will initially underbid and make up the difference in change orders and extras. a good bet is to ask around for the best elicitations in your area. make a detailed plain specifying all the materials (by make and model) to be used only invite recommended contractors to bid or even better if you find one stands head and shoulders above the rest give the job to him even if he is the highest bidder. ( if he is high it is probably because he is being honest )
Your job is a little small for this, but another good way you can go is to hire a “lead man” ( a lead man is a licensed supper who’s only role is to represent the owner in construction projects ) I have worked with lead man and can’t tell you how much easier and faster it is to address the unforeseen issues that arise if all parties are construction savvy.

i just saw the newest dr who...loved it, can't wait for the next episode.
are there any other dr who fans in the house?.

What do you long time fans think about the War that destroyed all the other timelords? will it be a central plot theme? can it/will it be undone? my self i'm not too happy about it i loved to see the Dr. interact with other timelords.
in watching the recent protests in this country in regards to the issue of illegal/legal immigration, one gets to read the many stories of success from many of these immigrants that came over from south of the border.
keeping politics aside, one can't but be astounded by the will and desire that many of them have to "make it" here in the usa.
many of them have realized the "american dream".
too true, too oftin.
the JWs being the only TRUE christans must then be the only christans.
that being so, to the best of my knolige.
there is not one "christan" orphange.
not one christan widows home.
not one christan organization giving bread to the hungry.
not one christan NPO giving more then thay take in.
for a really long time i have believed that there is no such thing as god.
last night i had a talk with someone and this one idea came to me, what if there is a god, but he is not perfect, and where did this idea of god=perfect come from?
is there any scipture that says god is perfect?
you can make any god you need to save you from the horror of the deepest night. Death stocks us all, wouldn't it be so much better then nice if we had a chance of continued existance. I don't belive in God at the moment but the couple times i thought i would die, man did i call on him. no doubt when the time comes i will choose to make a glorious loving god to recieve my dream of a soul. god help us all.

being an old Dr. who fan I like to see it back. I am a little unsure as to why thay changed the story line. The Dr. being the last surviving time lord is a bit risky to my thinking. hopefully it is well plnned out.
in light of the following scriptures regarding jesus, how do judicial committees and their members composed of three elders even remotely follow jesus' teaching and example?.
at dawn he went to the temple complex again, and all the people were coming to him.
he sat down and began to teach them.. then the scribes and the pharisees brought a woman caught in adultery, making her stand in the center.
The justification is the same as it has always been for an inquisition. submit or suffer.

this thread is prompted by some comments on the "unbaptised publisher" thread which was going off-topic so here's the comments thus far:.
stevenyc:the christian meaning of baptism is to have salvation.
To my thinking, the criminal on the cross next to Jesus didn’t repent. He merely asked to be remembered and he was remembered and forgiven. I don’t believe that one necessarily need ask for forgiveness in order to receive it. The God of the bible is not fare and just he, is generous and benevolent. The only thing I understand to be absolutely necessary is Jesus.
