I've been asked this question many times.

Here's the skinny, right from the horse's mouth: What I cannot tell you to your face at the door, because it is against company policy to even discuss the tips.

The driver gets paid a wage, typically minimum wage. However, the car he uses is a commercial driving expense roughly equal to that. $200 (expected) for either loan payment, or extra maintenence expected on a beater car.
$250-300 a month on commercial insurance. I have to have full coverage so that if we collide on the road, everyone gets paid and goes home happy. (We are among the safest drivers on the road, by the way. Unsafe drivers get fired or not hired to begin with)
Maintenence is around 100-200 a month but thats a estimate. Sometimes it is way more than that. Gas is about 300 a month or more. Tires every 4-6 months, could be $400.

Basically, my wage covers the car only. I live on tips alone.

When I say I am a Christian i am not shouting I'm clean livin I am whispering I was lost,Now I am found and forgiven.

When I say I am a Christian I don't speak of this with pride.I am confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.

When I say i am a Christian I am not trying to be strong I am professing that I am weak and need His strength to carry on.

When I say I am a Christian I am not bragging of success I am admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.

When I say I am a Christian I am not claiming to be perfect.My flaws are far too visible but,God believes I am worth it.

When I say I am a Christian I still feel the sting of pain I have my share of heartaches so I call upon his name.

When I say I am a Christian I am not holier than thou.I am just a simple sinner,who received God's good grace,Somehow.

God bless all of you,Love S.S

Atheists and agnostics believe in evolution. Christians, Jews, and Muslims believe in creation. Who believes in the ancient astronaut theory?

Zacharia Citchin wrote a book called the 12th planet. (circa 1970's) In it he speaks of the Annunaki. An advanced race of humaniods who came from planet Nibiru. He says they came here 200k yrs ago and genetically altered the primative hominids of that era with their own DNA to create a race of intelligent slaves--Homo-sapiens--us. The Book of Genesis speaks of them as the Nephlim. Astronomy says that a dark star or large unseen planet is influencing Neptune and Uranus. Citchin says that he has translated the Summerian texts and found "proof" of this. He said that Sodom and Gammorah were destroyed by nuclear weapons! He speaks fo two Annunaki Bro's Enki and Enlil who were adversaries. One of them made Humans the bad one and the other felt sorry for us and helped us. Any credible info on this? Anyone who believes this? Thanks.

i tell you not:

john 14:28 reads--
" .......BECAUSE THE FATHER IS GREATER THAN I AM"

But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.
Mark 13:32


Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me; of whom ye say, that he is your God:
John 8:54


And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.
Matthew 19:17

1st commandment: you shall not take other gods before Me! (God)

Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me
John 7:16

"Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one. Deuteronomy 6:4

"my God! my God! why haven forsaken me!"

You denied God while you know it!!

I have a relationship with God, yet I don't go to church. By name, I guess I would call myself a Christian, but with the way Christianity is today, sometimes I don't like to. The reason I don't go to church is because I find that truth isn't always being taught and the Spirit of God isn't always there. I know that Paul says that we should not forsake fellowship, but when the people in the church aren't on one accord and when truth isn't being taught, am I obligated to sit there?

For the 3rd time, today, I heard a televangelist distort the truth of the Word of God. It truly grieved my soul. It grieves my heart anytime I hear someone do that. I just feel like they're openly despising the Word.

Now, since I've been out of church, my walk with God has been 2 million times better! I've enjoyed it tremendously. I'm not saying it can't be with the church. Fellowship SHOULD admonish, but I just don't see it now. Truly, I would like to fellowship, but how can I without truth?

is it because though we may feel good when we are in church and then leave church, SATAN will continue to tempt throughout the rest of the day & the week? Is it like positive re-enforcement to keep our spiritual maintenance up?

Now Christians claim that their morality comes from their religion. Then how do you explain all the different animals that are moral to other animals of the same species. Take ants for example. Ants work together, they take care of other ants who live in the same clan, they protect each other from invaders who try and do them harm, and they do all the things that I think most people would define as moral, which is helping others and putting other before yourself. Well ants obviously don't have any religious belief, and yet they still do these things. Now you’re probably going to say well God made them that way. Well if God made it possible for ants to live morally without any divine incentive, then there is proof right there that belief in some divine being is not necessary to be moral.

And why do I feel a need to impose justice on those who have done wrong, if that is all up to God? Are court judges guilty of passing down judgement in contrast to Gods will?

Aren't these interchangeable?
Or is 'faith' just a wannabee, sucking up to someone, some idol, or some deity?
