He wrote the book "Heroes and Heroworship". What do you think of this quote from his book?

"THOMAS CARLYLE in his (HEROES AND HEROWORSHIP), was simply amazed as to:

"how one man single-handedly, could weld warring tribes and wandering Bedouins into a most powerful and civilized nation in less than two decades.""

Is it that because they claims to be scientists but believe in monkeys or apes as their ancestors and have senseless ideas about creation so as to believe everything was formed out of nothing to become everything. 0+0=1.

Kill fellow Christians? Give them an extra thirty years or so in heaven?

Heaven is better than anything on earth, or indeed better than anything someone on earth can imagine. So wouldn't the most charitable act possible be to make sure they are saved, and then kill them?

For such a small horn, they boast some really great things.

Face it what comfort do you have for the dying? Sorry, no afterlife. What hope do you have for the despairing? I cant help you with how you feel, but we can give you some mind altering medication. What purpose can you offer mankind?
Maybe we will evolve regressively into monkeys, sorry I mean common ancestor of monkeys, or hey we might become birds. No hope, no light, no purpose----atheism. What a fun club to be in. And without God---you have no truth and follow a lie. Like it or not you have bought the lie.
And in your arrogance you deny the God who created you. Agree or not?

The zoo in my city covers an area of 15 hectares and houses approximately 1/450,000th of the animal species on the planet.
So that means the Ark would have to be about the size of florida. One would think that would make this boat the easiest historical object ever for archaeologists to find and positively identify. Hiding in the basement of the Vatican, perhaps?

Self righteous:
having too high an opinion of one's own merits, and being intolerant of other people's faults.


" God doesn't exist. Why can't you uneducated fools see that?"
"Evolution is a fact. Do you people ever read?"
"I'm an atheist because I was smart enough to realize what a crock religion is and how hypocritical christians are."

..........................................so innocent uh?

so I can move to an area that has Mercedes and Porsche cars? Just in case the rapture happens, I want to get myself a nice ride when they all go. Unlike christians who think their logic is 100% watertight I will concede that I cannot prove the rapture won't happen therefore will have to allow it .000000000000000000000000001% chance.

psalm 50:16 But to the sinner, God says, What are you doing, talking of my laws, or taking the words of my agreement in your mouth?
50:17 Seeing that you have no desire for my teaching, turning your back on my words.
50:18 When you saw a thief, you were in agreement with him, and you were joined with those who took other men's wives.
50:19 You have given your mouth to evil, your tongue to words of deceit.
50:20 You say evil of your brother; you make false statements against your mother's son.
50:21 These things have you done, and I said nothing; it seemed to you that I was such a one as yourself; but I will make a protest against you, and put them in order before your eyes.
50:22 Now keep this in mind, you who have no memory of God, for fear that you may be crushed under my hand, with no one to give you help:
50:23 Whoever makes an offering of praise gives glory to me; and to him who is upright in his ways I will make clear the salvation of God.

Do you believe that people with mental illness go to hell? Like a Sociopath who murders or hurts people.. or depressed/bipolar people who kill themselves? Because it's a disesase...Or what about people who can't really control their behavior because of a mental illness like Borderlines who are prone to sleeping around and developing drug or alchohol addictions or the Histrionics/pathelogical liars lie constantly but can't stop.. do you think stuff like that is forgiven even when the sin continues or the sufferer hasn't asked?
Hope this question makes sense to someone.. I'm pretty tired.

A friend of mine invited me on vacation. Her family owns a summer home. So, we can stay for free. I don't have a lot of money right now and she offered to buy me my plane ticket and I would pay her back. For weeks I have been going back and forth about going on the trip. My friend knows I'm very low on cash right now. It's just not the cost of the plane ticket; but the cost of food and acitivites when we get there. The group of friends I'm going w/ come from very well off families. Money isn't an object for their fun. Usually, I have no problem going out with them. But, when on vacation, I can't back decline dinner plans so easily. If I'm home and have no money, I say,. "sorry, I can't make it to dinner tonight" on vacation I can't sit in the house while everyone else goes out.

Anyway, my friend gave me a deadline for getting the plane ticket. It was yesterday. She said if I didn't do it, she would go ahead and book it for me.
