Jonah and the big myth
by peacefulpete inmany here have heard that many/most famous bible tales are in fact merely local versions of often repeated pagan myths with a twist.
the jonah story is a classic.
the story is familiar to all, the joppa setting, the stormy sea and boat, the swallowing by a whale/fish, reappearance after 3 days.

I can't say I know for certain, but I hope this life isn't all there is. Not that I'm ungrateful, I value the opportunities that this life has to offer. I also hope that the wings of death will carry me forward to another plane on which to grow and develop.
Death is an end; an end to set of hopes and dreams, fears, successes and failures. What is carried forward, if anything, has been a topic of debate spanning history. Many cultures believe that people do change levels of being in some fashion; the direction and magnitude of the change being the sum total of positive and negative doings and/or personal growth. This seems to be a 'fair' model; limitations being set by unresolved fears and advancements dictated by positive growth of spirit. The universe is about balance and a circular flow of life and energy, and there is no malice in nature's course. But after our individual circles are complete, is there more? As our bodies become the dirt which grows the grass which feeds the cows which we once ate, does the spirit which we once called life continue? Do we continue, or did man invent God for fear of dying?
Each of us needs to make our own choice and live our lives accordingly. I constantly strive for personal growth and the conquering of my fears; not to make sure my tally is enough for the next step toward nirvana, but because I've defined that growth as part of the purpose of my life. I believe that at the moment of death, that sum will add clearly before my eyes and the feeling of accomplishment or failure upon viewing that display will make the difference between a good death and a bad one.

asexuality
by peacefulpete ini was reading about apomixis, (reproduction without the interaction of gametes) and found some interesting things.
dandelions for instance produce flowers and pollen that are useless to the plant.
the flowers are evolutionary vestiges from ancetral plants that reproduced the usual way.

Gordon Lightfoot
by RAYZORBLADE inok, if you're a canuck, chances you know that gordon lightfoot is about right up there with ol' jehover!.
but if not, nevermind, but i have to admit, i have been a lifelong fan of: gordon lightfoot.. this evening, i took his 'greatest hits' and gave it a listen, and as expected, i was still enthralled with his lyrical genius, and playing abilities.. anyone a gordon lightfoot fan?.
just curious.. all your folks living along north america's "great lakes" keep in mind, next month is the 28th anniversary of the sinking of the "edmund fitzgerald".. that song, by gordon lightfoot is haunting from beginning to end (over 6 minutes).. i personally love: go-go girl in love, bitter green, canadian railway trilogy, sundown, race among the ruins, wreck of the edmund fitzgerald, and well i like just about every damn thing he ever did.. your contributions?

Spunky,
I totally agree with you on those. Those "Praise the Lord!" and " God Bless America!!!" emails
are right up there with people who walk around ordering complete strangers to "SMILE!"
Grrrrr........
