The History Channel recently predicted that a huge national disaster would cause most parts of the country to be shut-off from the electric power grids for at least 2 year; only large population centers would be furnished electricity.

What would you do if you didn't have electricity?



(Pssst - I am guessing this posting also has R/S applicability. Example: It seems that most churches have only a few windows, and very few ventillation systems for wood-burning stoves in the wintertime.)

How many feel this behaviour is likely to reflect on Christians in general, or at least, the perception of them?

please answer this honesty please. Only to these people who left please reply. That the christians were being too rude, judgemental, constantly in your face and pushy, Came accross too controlling, telling you that you are going to hell all the time, pretenders, etc. Now people if you left christianity because of these things and nothing else I want to hear back from you. I am a christian who has had in your face kind of christians and very pushy, I guess that is maily in America, but I am in Aussie Land. But I have had many Jugemental christians, I can't stand it myself, but that will not push me away from Jesus, nothing will. So people I need to hear about your experience of why you left Jesus, Jesus has never left you., infact he loves you. So I need to know what set you packing from christianity. Becasue I know some christians do push people away, expecially when that think that they are better than anyone else. To me they are Hypocrites. I like christians that pray for you, who

Anytime an atrocity was committed by christians, simply claim they weren't "real" christians and *poof*, the atrocity was -actually- committed by atheists who -thought- they were christian but actually weren't.

It's all the fault of atheists pretending to be christians.

"Real" christians never do anything atrocious. If they do, subsequent generations of "real" christians will strip them of their faith and turn them into atheists.

So when future generations of christians speak of you and how you did so little to stop global warming, I suppose they will say -you- weren't "real" christians.

Why should we wait for history to render that verdict? Why not render it now?

As you have judged others to falsely claim to be christian, so that judgment is laid upon you.

Isn't that what God promised you?

I strongly think that we need an adult section,, its because yahoo doesnt have strong enough censorship of questions or answer,,, and sometimes even the smallest thing about sex is being cancelled,,,, there should be an adult section,seriously because ppl ask crazy questions, me included,, i just realised this when someone pointed it out that not everyone is an adult here,,,,,,

I have sold and purchased several things on ebay and have always been very fortunate with everyone I have dealt with. Recently two items I sold were paid for quickly and I left possitive feedback and always post items the day they sell or the following morning so received items in good time. When I did not get feedback I emailed to check all was ok.

One person has acknowledged receipt of the item and indicated they are pleased with it via e-mail explaining they had been away, yet still she has not left any feedback!?

The other person has not responded atall.

Neither seem to regularly use ebay but both have left feedback for people in the past.

Its frustrating when people just dont bother - has anyone else had this problem? Maybe I should wait until I get feedback before leaving it for others but I'm happy to let people know I acknowledge and appreciate their efforts.

Before running for office, and after a failed coup, Hitler wrote "Mein Kampf" wherein he spelled out every policy he was subsequently to enact when he became chancellor.

No one in Germany can say they didn't know what he was, except through deliberate ignorance.

95% of Germany's population was christian.

A sizable chunk of the remaining population was Jewish.

According to today's interpetations of the bible, there is no basis for any christian to support Hitler's policies. Indeed, there are compelling arguments for opposing him.

Yet christians not only elected him, but supported him through all that he did till the very end.

Most were either Nazis or Nazi collaborators.

If so many christians could ignore scripture to support the likes of Hitler, why should we believe it cannot happen again?

Why should we believe the devotion of christians to christianity is any better today than the devotion of those christians who served Hitler?

"Experience" seems to be the reason theists are unwilling to consider the possibility of God's non-existence.

I've heard people claim they've experienced God or they've felt God's presense, but I'm not sure what they mean.

Are they/you speaking about unexplanable feelings? events? visions?

by NT times, why is it sacriligeous to think Jesus was married?
Serious question-I'm not even entirely convinced in his existence but I don't see why the idea is so offensive to some.

I made a mistake at work the other day. I missed the fact that there were 10 files attached to an email rather than just the 4 I saw. It is going to cause problems, but my boss might never have found out. I told her what I did and explained what problems it could cause, but I did not apologize for making the mistake in the first place. I've been at this job for less than 90 days and I'm worried that I may not have handled the situation well.

Due to popular responses from my last question, the Church of Farnsworthism is now open for business. When I pass the collection plate around please be kind enough to donate a minimum of $200 for your application fees. And if I catch ANYONE stealing from the plate my mutant spider-beast will hunt you down in the night.

Anyone object to Farnsworthism?
