I'm looking for the best option to use within kubuntu to configure iptables. I've had a look at a few options but I'm wondering what experience people here have had with different options.

Please note this is not about windows, so please don't answer with windows firewall options.

For many today, the study of history is incorporated with the ideas that there is no God, miracles are not possible, we live in a closed system and there is no supernatural. With these presuppositions they begin their "critical, open and honest" investigation of history. When they study the life of Christ and read about His miracles or resurrection, they conclude that it was not a miracle or a resurrection because we know (not historically, but philosophically) that there is no God, we live in a closed system, miracles are not possible and there is no supernatural. Therefore, these things cannot be. What men have done is to rule out the resurrection of Christ even before they start an historical investigation of the resurrection. These presuppositions are not so much historical biases but, rather, philosophical prejudices.


This pretty much sums up my opinion about how the Bible and anything related to Christianity is handled.

I am not much of a baker, but I bought a box strussel pack and prepared it like it said on the back. I guess it came out as good as it could be coming from a box, but is there something I can add (sugar, brown sugar?) to make it sweeter and how much of it do I put?

Why did religion and the concept of God get such popularity among human beings?

From the days of cavemen religion has played a big part of humanity.

Is it because of any/some/all of the following or something entirely different?

1) Man needed hope. The concept of God looking after us is a big hope isn't it?

2) Man is afraid of death. So, if there was no God, there would be no heaven. If there is no heaven then that means there is no after-life.

3) A tool to control society. i.e. what Da Vinci code proposes. Religion was created to control a group of people.

4) There was actually a son of God who taught his followers to love. i.e. The story of Jesus is indeed mostly true.

I personally think it is because humans fear death and they needed a concept of God to battle the inevitability of death.

What do you think?

I was curious, but I'm about to graduate and enter real world. I keep hearing from people, "after college, life goes downhill...physically and emotionally." Well, that doesn't sound very exciting.

There's just so many religions out there and so many different lifestyles...different gods/goddesses and such...I mean why Christianity? Why is it like everywhere I go ppl hate/denounce Christians? Even in my fav. bookstores I see stuff and I'm like..what the heck? I sound so immature because I will admit, when it comes religion, I sort of am. Plz don't yell at me lol I'm so confused about everything...and I'm so confused about heaven, but that's another story... someone talk to me please?

John Mark Karr was released from custody today because his DNA did not match the DNA they had on JonBenet so it looks like he made up the whole story. What do you think should be done to someone for doing what he did or do you think he still had something to do with the murder regardless of the DNA?
