I am a Christian and I just read the first Harry Potter Book. In my opinion they are no different than Star Wars. Star Wars has the Force and a whole bunch of Weird creatures. HP has magic and a whole bunch of Weird creatures. They are both a stuggle between good and evil. So why all the complaints from christians? I can totally understand that fiction is fiction. I also belive that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and he is the way the truth and the life. can someone explain this to me?

I am going to a casting call for extras in a feature film in a couple of days. They have asked for a picture and a resume. The only acting experience I have is being an extra in a commercial recently. I have a couple of special skills but nothing exciting. No acting training, no theater...I think my resume will look pretty empty and pathetic! I know they don't usually require resumes for extras but this ad definitely said so. How do I go about beefing it up? Also, instead of a headshot, would it be okay to print like a 4 x 6 directly on my resume?

If so, what branch of science will it develop from? If not, is there any way we can explore beyond our solar system without this technology?

that when you die all your five senses stop working and your body gets a permanent complete paralysis. you cannot smell. you cannot hear you cannot see you cannot move you cannot feel only you can think as your brain is alive. you have nothing to do you cannot even just lie do nothing and se things .no sensation whatsoever. what will you do then? how do you feel about dying?

I saw the new Proof DVD coming out, but its $30.00 our cost. Any suggestions? if you make a proof, how do you do it. Whats the best way in photoshop to copyright your photos? How tacky is it to make proof sheets in photoshop and present it to your couple that way? I see a couple people doing this. I want it to look professional

I know a man named Mr. Bean
His limericks make me feel so clean
I like to read them in the tub
And fantasize he's there to rub
My brain and thoughts with words of wit
But then I get my 'puter wet
I curse and cry but have retribution
I didn't die from electricution
Oh how I love my Mr. Bean
His top and bottom and in between.

By equal rights. For the first time in 500 years a female has been employed as a beefeater. I think this is a step too far.
