cheerup... it's gonna get worse. but hey the brightside is the darker the night gets the brighter the stars shine. not to mention the morning doesn't come until we're through the night.

fission creates by-products, fusion won't, but that's not been totally figured out yet apparently. fusion as i believe will be the key to the energy age, though we wont be spending our money on gas we will on food, the food shortages arent going to stop or decrease. just imagine, food for the machine but not for you.

sorry im a goober and had to comment on this topic some interesting info on the asteroid http://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/planetary/text/eros.txt Eros is a "Near-Earth Asteroid" or NEA. Its next close approach will come in January 2012, when it will pass 0.178 AU from our planet. There is no chance of a collision http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2001/ast27feb_2.htm thats 16.5 million miles away :whistle (pretty close huh?)

"the woman"? which one? I dont know much on the subject but from what I understand... Before Christ's death on the cross upon dieing you go to Hades, a sort of waiting area. When HE died, HE preached to all those in Hades, because "no man may past to the father but by Me" Those that accepted him went with him to Heaven. Just because it's not said she went to be with her ancestors doesnt mean she didnt was "the woman" before or after the death of christ?

I had a problem with this, tried everything, nothing seemed to work... But as I began listening to, and reading, the Word everyday the problem seemed to go away. I think David was on to something when he said "The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul" All temptation will not pass away, but you will find great power over it as the Word speaks to you. Remember "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." I love listening to pastor teach the Word, also reading it. you might try http://www.csnradio.com there is a great collection of pastors here they almost always got somebody good.

Your hypothetical assumption crumbles the world of reason and logic. Without that which everything is founded upon where rests "proof"? Faith is the evidence of things unseen.

David, it looks like you got many fantastic responces to your inquery and i totally agree with them. As an added note, i believe the scriptures suggest Paul was previously married (probably divorced due to faith in Jesus Christ)

If a man running a marathon tripped and fell would he be called a hypocrite?

i believe i heard it put best, "It's not faith and works, but faith that works"

I agree, thinking someone is attractive is not lust. Temptation is not lust, it is not wrong to be tempted but wise to avoid temptation when possible. To stand strong against the wiles(or willies) of the devil, there is tremendous power in prayer but also The Word. When i began regularily listening to sermons as well as reading the Bible, there was astounding growth. For a week without the Bible makes you weak without the Bible I thouroughly enjoy listening to the Word being taught, might I suggest a pastor? http://bandonfellowship.org/messages.php - Matt Fox
