It looks like a hotel in space will open in 2012. (Interesting date :-)

Whether you believe in God/Heaven concepts or not, what do you expect you'd feel floating in space looking back at earth and seeing 15 sunrises each day?

If you could afford the trip, what would you hope to gain from the experience?

While visiting Buffalo, NY, I found myself (along with my son and nephew) walking across an old, metal bridge that didn't look too stable. You could look down and see the rapids. It was pretty scary. I can't believe I did that!! Got to the Canadian side. Of course, I was in my 30s at the time.

Your time on earth is not the complete story of life. You must wait until heaven for the rest of the chapters.

Where does your spirit go when you die, out there somewhere above the clouds, pass the moon and stars. Heaven, paradise, more stunningly beautiful than our earthly minds can imagine.
whether reincarnation, or heaven, our spirits and soul lives on never ending. Unless perhaps in hell time is the opposite, and eventually your spirit is snuff out. The Bible does say for eternity.
Measured against eternity, our time on earth is just a blink of an eye, but the consequences of it will last forever. The deeds of this life are the destiny of the next.

All is welcome to share your thoughts, views and perspctives?

John 5:19 Most truly I say to you, the son cannot do a single thing of his own initiative but only what he beholds the father doing.
If he was the father couldn't he do things of his own initiative?

What do you say about this, evolutionastrians?

Venomous snakes have both hollow fangs and venom glands. According to the prominent creation scientist I. M. Lyon, unless hollow fangs and venomous glands magically appeared fully-formed at the same time, they could not have evolutioned.

The reason they could not have evolved is because both structures are irreducibly complex. Also, it would be pointless for a snake to evolve one of them without the other.

I know my last point is not true; for example, Gila monsters have venom glands but not hollow teeth. I'm ignoring that point because it refutes my argument, and I hope readers will too.

As long as you ignore the points that disprove my argument, it's obvious that venomous snakes could not possibly have evolved. This proves that God created the snake to tempt man in the Garden of Eden.

How do you answer that, evolutionistas?

My husband and I have been married for 2 yrs. I want children, he does not (he has 2 from a previous marriage). People are alway asking me when I am going to have kids. This is a touchy subject and is really nobody else's business. How do I answer this in a nice way, but in a way to make them quit asking?

once upon a time a holy man owned a cat whom he loved a lot and took the cat with him to the temple and tied it near the alter ok.

A few years later the cat died and the holy man found another cat as a pet and did the same by taking it to the temple and tying it near the alter.

A few years later the man died and the next man who took over from him felt sorry for the cat and adopted it and did the same by tying it near the alter

This story continued and 300 years down the track it was the same. There was a temple, a holy man , a tied up cat and a congregation.

in other words the followers could not worship their god without the presense of a tied up cat. and no one knew how this tied up cat happened to be a part of the service either

now dont you think this applies to religion as well?

It is very rare for a situation in any media format to show a fathe that is supportive of their family and puts them first in all aspects of his life. Why is this?

Note - I said rare, not that it doesn't exist. Examples of existence : The Pursuit of Happyness, Andy Griffth Show, Men of Honor, there are more, but far more are the retard, drunk, abusive, angry fathers.

You know if you look around you will see animals of diffrent species living together in harmony. But here we are, thomo sapiens, the choosen ones, 'the smart ones', we are of the same species but cant even stand each other. Kids dying of hunger, kids and women being raped, people dying of curable diseases, but no lets worry about aliens and spend billions building space crafts neh that is more important.

Just wondering if anyone else out there is sick and tired of all the lies they've been told alll their lives. Nothing you read is 'true', nothing you watch on tv. is true . . . nothing's true, not even bibles and other various holy books, which were written by men imposing as 'God's messengers/prophets/apostles etc., so I wonder if there's any hope for any of us to find our way out of the maze of deceit.

And if God exists, then I can't see a just God throwing anyone in hell for being lied to!!
