In the movie biz, this is called a deus ex machina. An event which saves everyone in the nick of time but doesn't make any sense to the plot of the story.
It is usually the sign of an author who wrote himself into a corner.
You know, how like everyone on earth was a sinner, so god was gonna have to destroy earth.....except, he couldn't have god do that, because anyone reading this story in the future would obviously know that never happened.
So, PRESTO CHANGE-O!!!!!! A son, NEVER before mentioned in the first part of the novel (the old testament) appears out of nowhere.
I hope I have done a little to shake your faith today.

Is there REALLY such a thing as being "bisexual" or is this some lame excuse for those people who refuse to admit they are gay or lesbian??

How can you ask a priest for a traditional Catholic wedding ceremony when your b/f has been married before (in presbytarian church) but now he is divorced. Does it matter that he was married before?

how many hours a day do you sit in your chair "and be honnest' and write on this computer, I spend 7 to 16hrs a day off and on 7 days a week

Is it your only friend? "i know for me it is"

If the computer was taken away would your house be cleaned again, would you want to walk in the park with me? would you play with your kids or make your husband breakfast, lunch, and dinner and would you be making love to him 7 days a week instead of being onthis computer???

Would you go wash your car and take the kids to have fun?
would you get your bills paid on time with out them being late?
would you go to the store and buy healthy food and not fastfood every night for it is quicker?
would you go to be and get 8 to 12hrs of sleep a night??

I wounder if humans are so set on computers that we are becoming fat and so are the kids, all the nintendo stopes the child from playing with friends and they are not sociabul.

I think i will take a walk tonight and get off the computer.????

When I've read the whole thing twice over because I'm very meticulous in making the points I make when these same people directing me to the bible have probably only read the verses picked out for them in church?

i'll be totally honest, i've seen so much pornographic material ever since i was a kid. but in alot of them you would find that the 'actors' are wearing the crucifix (crosses) around their necks? is it because the belief that jesus died for them... then they can do whatever they want because they are already forgiven? i've read that in religions like islam for instance, that every one is accounted for their intentions then by their actions, whether good or bad, it is being recorded for review on the day of judgement. but in christianity if you are involved in immoral sexual acts, murder, whatever, then you are already forgiven? i'm confused...so that means you can rob a bank, rape, commit fornication, whatever... it's ok. cause you are already forgiven...right? i guess it would be cool to have an easy way out, instead of having to worry that it will come back on the day of judgement... what do you think of all this?
