I hope it will answer all those psuedo intellectual twits who claim to really believe scientists ARE allowed freedom of thought and freedom to follow the evidence wherever it leads!

"Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness. And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.

Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours;" 1 Corinthians 3:18-21

I hope it will answer all those pseudo intellectual twits who claim to really believe scientists ARE allowed freedom of thought and freedom to follow the evidence wherever it leads!

Most Really Know The Truth

The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.

Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.

There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.

Psalms 19:1-3

But Prefer The Sham Of Fables

For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
2 Timothy 2:3-4

Over Freely Offered Eternal Salvation

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
John 3:16

If This Scientific Quackery Was Not Such A Deadly Deception, It Would Be Total Goofiness

:24:

Be Blessed Beloved

The LORD bless thee, and keep thee:

The LORD make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee:

The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.

And they shall put my name upon the children of Israel; and I will bless them.

Numbers 6:24-27

Love, Joe

My quote thingy isn't working...so I'll just do this:

QUOTE: "Maybe the Christians here have lower moral standards than me, but I'd call that dishonesty. Anyone here care to defend this sort of behaviour? Or is 'Lying for Jesus' OK?"

Movie titles get changed at the last minute all the time. Here's a partial list....

AMERICAN PIE was originally penned under the name: "Teenage Sex Comedy That Can Be Made For Under $10 Million That Your Reader Will Love But The Executive Will Hate." The lengthy non-title sort of title stuck with the project all the way up until it was purchased by Universal who then changed the name to: "East Great Falls High." The second title was meant to be a temporary one and eventually there was a debate on what the final title should be; some rooting for the title: "Comfort Food." Eventually American Pie won out after a few legal issues with the title were ironed out, due to another movie wanting the same name.

GOODFELLAS was somewhat based on the book "Wiseguy" by author Nick Pileggi, therefore the film project started out with the same title. However, a television series was airing at the time with that same name and the term Goodfellas was used as a replacement.

PRETTY WOMAN was originally called "3000"; which was the amount Julia Roberts character was paid for the night. Studio research showed that 3000 made audiences wonder if it was a plot about hookers on the moon, and therefore a title change was decided upon. Director Garry Marshall was given a set of songs to choose a title from and Pretty Woman the movie was born.

THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT MARY was at one point named: "There's Something About Sarah."

ROCKY was originally named "The Contender"

SCREAM was originally written by Kevin Williamson as "Scary Movie", however the title seemed too comedic for most and not too long after the change the title was given to the now popular comedy series of films created by the Wayans Brothers.

BLADE RUNNER being based off of the Phillip K. Dick book: "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?", also bore that title. The title was deemed "non-commerical" and went through a series of changes from just plain "Android" to "Mechanismo", to "Dangerous Days", before sticking to Blade Runner.

HITCH was written and sold with the title: "The Last First Kiss." Market testing of the titled proved it did not appeal to men, which the creators of the romantic comedy were hoping to help fill in the audience, and thus the title change.

REALITY BITES first came to be under the title "The Real World", that was until MTV decided to debut a new reality show with the same title.

UNFORGIVEN, the award winning Clint Eastwood directed, David Peoples written western was originally titled "The Cut-Whore Killings", which was then changed to both "Whore's Gold" and then "The William Munny Killings" before Clint Eastwood himself picked the title Unforgiven.

THE VILLAGE was originally titled "The Woods", but was changed to avoid conflict with another film of that title.

FIELD OF DREAMS having been based on a book entitled "Shoeless Joe" was shot with that title intact. However audience testing showed that people would assume it was either about a homeless person or that Kevin Costner was playing Shoeless Joe.

BIG was originally titled "When I Grow Up" before the writers made the change.

TOMORROW NEVER DIES is a James Bond film that was originally entitled: "Tomorrow Never Lies." A marketing department memo with a typo switched "dies" in place of "lies" and the title was determined to be better sounding and more popular.

BLOOD DIAMOND was originally titled "Okavanga" until the original script was changed and the story no longer took place in the Okavanga territory.

LETTERS FROM IWO JIMA went through a few title changes with the original being "Men From Mars." The first titles were taken from character quotes with "Lamps Before the Wind" also being considered, before being changed to "Red Sun, Black Sand" in reference to the Japanese flag and the black sands of Iwo Jima. Eventually during shooting a person from Warner Bros. Japan suggested Letters From Iwo Jima and the title stuck.

SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER was originally based off of a newspaper article with which it shared the title " The Tribal Rites of the New Saturday Night." The title was deemed too long and the Bee Gees song "Night Fever" inspired the change.

Lots of movies go through the name changing game to seek what will appeal most to the money spending masses. Often times it is good that research is done in this area because some of the classics, even mentioned in this article, would surely not have been the same in some way had they gone with the original title.

Also, like Ben said: " "I don't remember a single person asking me what the movie was about."

And as far as the Producer change.....heck some movie studios replace DIRECTORS half-way through a film!...

Hey, what's wrong with a little false witness when it is strategically convenient?

Keep it up, creationists. :24:

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
