If their normal business practice included writing whatever was asked of them, then yes. This is the part that people miss on this topic, the bakeries that have been in trouble have refused to preform a regular business practice, not to do anything out of their normal operations.

I would do this with no issues at all. I trust the computer more than the human. I hope to be around for driverless cars.

People tend to see what they are looking for, whether it is there or not. From racism to grand conspiracy theories...if you look for it, you will always find it

Rodion, I do not base my view of climate change on what the politicians may or may not try and do with it, that is just a smokescreen. People have no problem believing that volcanos can affect the climate yet when mankind puts out 100 times the CO2, people do not seem to think that matters. There is a mountain of evidence that man has affected the normal climate cycle. Temp data is available to anyone that wants to look at it on the NASA website. You can freely download the data files and run them through any program you like. Same hold true for CO2 levels. You can then look at the history of climate cycles and see if what is happening now is in line with those cycles. If it is not, which it isnt, then one would be inclined to look for a reason why. Scientist have look at multipe reasons why and only one makes any sense based on the data available...that pumping 100 times the CO2 of volcanos into the air has a consequence.

This was the most bizarre post I have ever read.

In national I vote becaue I want a viable 3rd party so I will vote for whichever 3rd party has the best chance to garner the most votes. I honestly believe the only reason we are still allowed to vote is to give us the illusion of both choice and make us feel we have some modicum of control. In other words to keep us from revolting.

I doubt that humans are getting smarter. We may have more knowledge, but it doesn't really mean we are becoming smarter. There are evidence that show we are becoming more stupid. Around 2,000~5,000 genes control intelligence, at rate of accumulating mutations it would only mean humans get more stupid overtime. This make sense as we seen ingenious inventions in history done with much less that we can't even replicate now even with the best modern tools. Also, intelligence and mating are negatively correlated. People who have higher intelligence in general, produce less children compare to people with lower intelligence. In fact there is a comedy movie that is based on this premise. I agree that man is not getting smarter. We have accumulated massive amounts of knowledge that we don't even know what to do with. I am expanding my career into the realm of knowledge management and it is a wide open field because people do not know how to best make use of the knowelwgde we have. I also think reliance on technology has made us less smart. We no longer need to "know things" as we can just look them up in a blink of an eye. I am terrible at spelling and I don't really care as everything I use comes with spell check built in.

A butterfly affect how wind currents operate, so yes, it shoudl be included because there is evidence that volcanoes cause more CO2 damage than humans, though humans do their share. People can't just ignore facts they disagree with or don't like ... Here are some more facts about volcanos from the USGS. http://volcanoes.usgs.gov/hazards/gas/climate.php

A butterfly affect how wind currents operate, so yes, it shoudl be included because there is evidence that volcanoes cause more CO2 damage than humans, though humans do their share. People can't just ignore facts they disagree with or don't like ... Volcanos emit roughly 350 million tonnes of CO2 per year, about 100 million of that is underwater. Humans on the other hand are currently emitting about 29 Billion tonnes per year. http://www.skepticalscience.com/volcanoes-and-global-warming-intermediate.htm

I am a huge fan of Joel Weldon. Two of my favorites of his is "only you" and "take forgiveness". Take Forgiveness might be one of my favorite songs every written.

Kwilphilly, I think you are taking about two different uses of the same word. Yes, our worship should be on-going, but it is also a specific activity of actively worship our Lord. We are told to pray continuously, yet we also all have a time we set aside for the specific act of getting on our knees in prayer to our Lord.

Kickstarter is 100% pure free enterprise.

Climate change should not be included in this list. There is a mountain of pure evidence and testing that backs up the theories behind the hypothesis that humankind is affecting the normal cycle of the planet.

Why do you think apes SHOULD become more human like over time? Theories in science are a big deal, you're using the common use of the term to mean the equivalent of a "hypothesis". The types of things that become law are usually forumlated using mathematical equations. The common designer/creator argument fails. All we have to do is find creatures that aren't like us humans much at all. I take no issue with people criticizing aspects of evolution, I just ask that they become familiar with the terms first. The common creator is stronger because of creatures that are not like humans on the outside but still share amazing amounts of DNA. On the surface there is not much the same ablut a human and a fruit fly, yet our DNA is more than 60% the same. That just yells of a creator.

How could honoring God and worshiping God correctly not leave a person feeling energized? How does one determine if God has "accepted" our worship if not from feedback given by the Holy Spirit? How was God worshipped in the Old Testament? Seems it was with song and dance, do you think that David felt energized as he danced through the streets singing to the Lord? What better way to worship God and honor Him than to be fired up for Him and to feel alive with His spirit?
