We know that atheists do not believe in God but what if the atheists have got it wrong? What if there really is a creator God out there who cares about mankind? If, as the Bible says, we are created in God's image, and God is love, would he care about atheists?

For instance, man possess knowledge in the form of two concepts; conceptualization is a mental process of abstracting and integrating the concretes of one's experience into mental units, such as "table" or "chair". Abstractions must be abstracted from something; they must be acquired through mental effort. Man also requires a method to distinguish true beliefs from false beliefs; this is the function of verification.

These two elements -acquisition and verification - are essential to the concept of knowledge as we understand it. Knowledge must come from somewhere, and it must be verified by some means.

Has God acquired his knowledge? Has he verified it? Is there another way to describe the knowledge of God?

spoke to people through dreams..like he did Joseph, Daniel, the Pharoah, the cup bearer and the baker etc. within each of these stories God either has given someone the ability to interpret their dream or they by the spirit of God interprets it themself..do you thing that God still speaks to people through dreams? because I have been having a series of dream lately that have been very thought provoking to me. I had a dream that my ex has been following me..... and then he told me that he would speak to me on a Tuesday or on Tuesday would be the day we'd speak. In the dream he followed and copied everything i did,he was following the car that i was passenger in, I waved at him and he waved back everything i did, he did back. I have been dreaming about him alot lately for the past 4 months in a different ways, i know they mean something because some have come to pass in different ways. His child's mother is also in a number of my dreams not in a positive way though. what could they mean

It seems a lot of celebrities do this. I notice Oprah Winfrey does it quite often on her talk show.

Yes i know it was a terrible time in the United States history, but why keep bringing it up? Its not like they personally were slaves themselves and its not like the white people in the audience were slave owners.

Winter Parking!



One winter morning in Essex a couple were listening to the radio while eating breakfast. They heard the announcer say, "We are going to have 8 to 10 inches of snow today. You must park your car on the even-numbered side of the street, so the snowploughs can get through." Norman's wife went out and moved her car.
A week later while they were again eating breakfast, the radio announcer said, "We are expecting 10 to 12 inches of snow today. You must park your car on the odd-numbered side of the street, so the snowploughs can get through." Norman 's wife went out and moved her car again.
The next week they were again having breakfast, when the radio announcer said, "We are expecting 12 to 14 inches of snow today. You must park ..."
Then the electric power went off.
Norman's wife was very upset, and with a worried look on her face she said, "Honey, I don't know what to do. Which side of the street do I need to park on so the snowploughs can get through?"
With the love and understanding in his voice that all men who are
married to blondes exhibit, Norman said. "Why don't you just leave it in the garage this time?"

I know this sounds strange but I am not really into paranormal things...but I just remembered that when I was 7 my sister and I went to Germany to visit family while my mother and father stayed in America....I was sitting alone on this hill, missing my father so I sat there very quite Meditating (even though i didnt know what meditating was). I tried over and over again to talk to my dad and i imagined where he was while i was trying to talk to him, at work. The next day my mom called me and said dad said that yesterday he could swear that you were talking to him at work and he kept hearing your voice! But as a child i wasnt really surprised and now thinking back Its amazing! does anyone believe in this kind of stuff or have an explanation

Father Christmas is something that goes back to pagan times. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Father_Christmas Is this effect of globalisation and childrens exposure to american tv (nothing against Americans). Another nail in the coffin of English Traditions? What do you think?
