First off I do not believe in God or any god. I think the main reason why no one who believes in God can prove there is a God is because of the reasons they give. They will say "faith" proves it. No it does not. If you have faith in something, you believe in it. So prove it. Don't bother saying, "waking up each day, childbirth, a beautiful sunset" are all proof of God. They are not. That is life and not a life that was granted by a god. Life is something that started billions of years ago and just keeps moving along. God believers state that life can not come from non-life and want us to believe that means only God can prove why we are here. Why can't you believe something that may have happened just like you want us to believe that every unexplainable thing must be an act of God. Proof is proof and needs to be backed up by facts; facts than can be proven...hence proof. Until there is real proof I will continue to not believe in a God...Let the bashing begin. :)

I have a Suzuki Katana. The manual says to only clean using Kerosene because the chain does not have a master link, and it has it's own grease in it's links. WD-40, for example would actually cause damage and break down these links.

My question is how do I clean the chain using Karosene? Do I soak it (for how long), or can I use a brush. After that what kind of chain lube do you recommend and where can I buy it?

let's say government is somewhat of an evil... we are forced to do things that we don't want to do as citizens.

I used to be filled with hope that I would be able to do something great in my life; that people would come together to solve the problems of the world; that the divisions of religion would fall away; that the gap between the rich and poor would diminish.... but it seems as if all of these things have only gotten worse since I was younger. Am I wrong to be cynical about the hope and future of the human race?

If Mormons believe that the Bible is true. So long as its translated correctly. Because it has been altered several times. What makes The Book of Mormon any better. It has been changed several times as well.
According to the Mormon Church’s teaching manual, Gospel Principles, page 53,

Joseph Smith translated the Book of Mormon into English through the gift and power of God. He said that it is "the most correct of any book on earth, and the keystone of our religion, and a man would get nearer to God by abiding by its precepts, than by any other book" (History of the Church, 4:461).

Yet, the book which Joseph Smith declared was "the most correct of any book on earth" (History of the Church, vol. 4, p. 461) has been revised in over 3900 places. Most of these changes were made to correct embarrassing spelling and grammatical errors (this will be examined in more detail later in this article).

So I got pulled over, I had my license and registration ready, he went back to his vehicle....didn't say "do you know why I pulled you over?" He just asked for license registration...then came back minutes later and said "My radar gun caught you going 76mph in a 55mph. I just need you to sign here that you understand.blahblahh, You have 10 days to comply, here is the court address."

The total fine was $159. But it had a bunch of additional charge bull crap on it. Fine: $67, MCARE: $35, E.M.S. $25 and some others on there which I have no idea what those additional charges are.

I wasn't reckless driving, it was a 2-lane highway, maybe 2 cars on the road within 1/4 mile of me. I want to dispute the citation but no Phone Number was provided or a scheduled date. He just said 10 days which I doubt is accurate or logged.

I want to reschedule the court date for another week or two to lessen the chances that the cop will actually show, and the citation will be dismissed.

Advice?

Granted, non-manufacturing employment and inflation both look fine at the moment, but there are a lot of indicators suggesting we are in real trouble:
1. The dollar is as low as I've seen it, ever.
2. The credit markets are a wreck.
3. Energy costs are as high as I've seen them, ever; and I lived through the 70's OPEC embargo.
4. The deficit and national debt are breathtakingly high.

It seems that this house of cards is about to collapse. Already:
1. Unemployment is rising.
2. Corporate earnings are falling.

The unholy alliance of Bush administration stupidity and oil industry evil are about to send us all over the edge...

I am just a little worried... I am going to have to rethink the way I eat entirely. I don't eat a lot of junk, but A LOT of things have carbohydrates and I know how limited those are when you have gestational diabetes. Thanks for your answers!

The problem is with my friend..We're in the same class and she thinks she 'loves' a boy in our class.She says 'he is soo sweet, oh I love him so much, I don't know what to do, he drives me crazy, (on Friday) I will miss him so much at the weekend...' As u see, she only liked his appearence.

The worst part of it, that boy doesn't care about Elif and won't, I think..But I can't tell this to my friend coz I'm sure she will be so sad..

What should I do??

How many of today's feral thugs on the streets were sent to Sunday school and how many were taught (wrongly) by their atheist parents that Jesus' teachings don't matter?
I bet most of the feral kids never attended Sunday school or church in their lives.

A velodrome is built for use in the Olympics (the figure below). The radius of curvature of the surface is 15.7 m. At what angle should the surface be banked for cyclists moving at 15 m/s? (Choose an angle so that no frictional force is needed to keep the cyclists in their circular path. Large banking angles are indeed used in velodromes

the angle answers should be in degrees, please besides answering it, explain the problem to me, I dont know where to start or anything, thank you!
