*sighs* It saddens me that those who take the Bible too literally, in their zeal for literalism, can go against what Jesus Himself said and preached.

Example, those of you that believe in a literal rapture where people will rise into the air and meet Jesus Christ in the air...
1 Thessalonians 4:17
After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever.

1. GRAVITY would have something to say about that wouldn't it? (It IS a natural law of course, and as a part of the natural world, God made that law didn't He? - yet that would go against His own nature and creation)
2. Jesus Christ Himself refuted this...
Once, having been asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, Jesus replied, "The kingdom of God does not come with your careful observation, nor will people say, 'Here it is,' or 'There it is,' because the kingdom of God is within you.

currently in a secret relationship and hiding it from our parents that live in another city whom strongly disapprove and will do anything to stop it.

we love each other very much, are established working adults, and want to get married but now the parents want to move to the same city.

We love it where we live but we are afraid of what the parents will do. Do we stay and put up with the stress or do we move away and know that they will have to accept it and have no control over us if we are very far away?

I saw a painting by Werner Tübke in Weimer, Germany about five years ago. I believe it is titled "Tod in venetig" (Death in Venice), but I can't find any books or images relating to it online. Anyone know anything about it? Links?

to me I always seen this as the dead in christ, those who are dead in christ, the ones who did not believe. and yes I have read it all. it could be taken many ways. but as I read it all, i feel this will happen at the end of the trib. yes we may be spared part of the trib, the worts part as the Lord said, pray he will shorten the days. But no I am not convinced the rapture will happen. convince me, please.

Its been a while now that I seem to have lost almost all my emotions. Nothing bad has happened to me or anything like that. I'm just very indifferent about everything that is going on in my life. All food taste the same, everything is dull, I never really get excited about anything anymore. I was in a relationship with a girl and that didn't help much either. I think I am getting bored with life or maybe I am expecting too much from it? Even though I have a normal social life but I enjoy doing things alone like reading, writing or drawing. In fact I avoid some of my friends sometime just to have time to myself.

Is there any way for me to feel again?

My sisters chiwawa climbed under her bed and eat about five pieces of excel gum (the wax paper kind), so as you can imagine i was worried about what might happen to the dog. so i got out the yellow pages, and decided id try poison control in montreal canada. Well, i explained to the guy what happened, and he actually got mad at me for calling poison control and told me its only for human related problems. when i asked him if he could refer me to a vet emergency number, he told me it wasn't his job to do that, then he hung up.......

i have to say i'm very ticked off by this, cause he couldn't care less about the dog. what do you guys think i should do about this, the guy wouldn't even refer me to get help. I'm sure your thinking "maybe you should have looked up a vet number first?" and i suppose i could have, but its not what happen.

so any advice? its ridiculous that a help center denies you any sort of aid, even a vets number.

Do you think the US leadership understands the subtle distinction between fighting an insurgency versus fighting insurgents?

It may seem a trivial difference, but if it is unrecognized, the US is doomed to defeat in Iraq. Those who wish to not repeat history should (have) read "A Savage War of Peace" by Horne or any of Trinquier's commentaries on the French experience in Algeria.

It has been 100% proven lance did epo in the 99 tour, 6 frozen urine samples through various stages (most that he won) PROVED he took EPO during the race. He was "Trained" by pro-tour doping specialist Dr. Ferrari until the gentle doctor was found guilty of teaching cyclists how to dope and get away with it. ALL of his closest competitors during his tour wins were associated with or found to have used enhancing drugs! Furthermore, his cancer could be attributed to the various types of steroids he was using while he was coached by Chris Carmichael while on the US national team. Please try to explain how I am wrong intelligently. And try not to use the smelly people as an excuse!!
