There is no occurence of the phrase in the KJV bible. The new testament says quite explicitly, on several occasions, that we are not all sinners:
Romans 5:14 Death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned.
1 John 3:6 Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not.
1 John 3:9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
1 John 5:18 We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not.
3 John 11 He that doeth good is of God: but he that doeth evil hath not seen God.
Yet, as with so many things, the NT is not consistent about this:
Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.
1 John 1:8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
1 John 1:10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

how can JW say that they have researched their NWT if the people they had on the job new nothing about translatiing the Bible. I think they are all frauds. You decieve weak minded people and try to get every one to convert with that nonsense, get some one who can translate correctly.

I'm interested in raising money for cancer research (preferably teen cancer) by doing triathlons. Does anyone know of any organizations in the Bay Area in California that can get me started?

My older two children have decided that they wanted to dress up as Thing 1 and Thing 2 (from the Dr.Suess books) for Halloween, so I went out and bought the spray on hair color for halloween in blue for their hair. Now reading the back of the can I see that it says that people with light blond hair sould "proceed with caution"-I am assuming in relation to removability. Is there a particular brand that would be best on my kids' hair, they are both really light blonds, almost white, or is there something that I could do to their hair before spraying it so that the spray might come out easier? I hate to tell them that they can't be what they want to be, and I don't think that I would be able to find two blue wigs this close.

I've got very nice hair that's neither very thick nor very thin. Texture can very between African curly, and Asian striaght. I'm dressing as a cowgirl this year. Any suggestions? Also, how should I do my makeup? I'm addicted to thick eyeliner, but I'm not sure if that would exactly fit the costume. The goal is to go as genuine as possible, rather than cheesy, or too sexy...

I just realized most of my misery happened because of the stupid negative things I said to girls I dated that which I regret always. I always do that with the girls I like but not the ones I don't like, go figure :( Anyone else go through similar experience?

Imagine having Power over God-to direct a god with the knowledge you have-ah sheeeet-too late-it is called science-but then when man writes about Gods other than yours-you call it science fiction-so you must admit-you have Power over Zues-Jupiter-Allah-Buddah-Jesus (depending on which one you believe in versus the ones you declare are fraud Gods)-One nation OVER GOD has a nice ring to it-now think about it!

Now I do understand that some things are unacceptable in the eyes of the Lord but why on Earth do we have to dress nice? I can't stand suits but people wonder why I wear T-Shirts and baggy jeans to Sunday service. It makes them seem hypocritical. My shirts don't even have anything phalic on them or vulgar. My jeans fit nicely on my waist and aren't sagging.

I have noticed that in todays world Muslim are being dislike and being linked to the T word...it hurts to know that people link the beautiful religion of Islam to Terrorism. If an evil person calls themselves a follower of Islam ignore that because no true and guided Muslim will behave that way. Only a pure individual can be a Muslim. I request people to understand Islam.....I have to agree that many followers of Islam are not good but the religion itself is pure and beautiful because it embraces the Christian and Jewish religions......Islam embraces the injeel( unchanged bible), zabur (unchanged Psalms) , tawrah (unchanged), and Quran( final unchanged holy book). We muslims believe in Jesus, Moses, David, and ofcourse the last prophet Muhammad (saw).....this is the final religion, because what Moses started, David carried on, Jesus carried on, and finally Muhammad (saw) finished. The Quran is the final book of God. (I am not saying all this to convert anyone, but to make people aware)

40% of NIH scientists are looking for other jobs because they don't want to declare their percuniary interests. Do you think this suggest that they have may have been receiving "gifts" for favorable findings and they don't want anyone to find out.

There seems to be a large group here to day. Maybe I'll get an answer this time.
