you can do something right now that will have real impact in helping towns and cities across the USA get community radio - media that belongs to the people and gives the real story when mainstream media wont ...
.. you can act now by simply speaking up ... the Federal Communications Commission is asking you how you feel about the difference between locally-based community radio and large conservative media groups like mega-churches with deep pockets that are trying to grab the entire radio dial. They are asking you to comment as an American citizen ..
http://www.freepress.net/fcc/comment.php?dn=fullpowerradio
HERE'S WHAT'S HAPPENING:
This October, community groups will have a final chance to bring full-power local radio to their areas. The FCC will allow Americans to apply for licenses to build stations in the FM band's non-commercial section - Noncommercial Educational (NCE) licenses between 88 and 92 FM.
This is an historic application window. This October is likely the very last chance for local community groups to obtain a full-power community radio license, because in most communities, only one radio frequency remains available.
During October's media gold rush, we community folks could get shut out. During non-commercial licensing periods in the recent past, single large players (many of them are conservative religious radio networks) have engaged in speculative behavior or attempted to build nationwide networks by applying for frequencies in hundreds of communities.
In response to this problem, and to create fairer conditions of competition this time, the FCC has proposed setting a maximum number of 10 licenses per applying group. This would help a local community group that is applying for a radio license have a better chance against a high-powered national broadcast outfit.
But the large conservative media groups object., The FCC needs to have evidence of support for the limit. So they are giving you an opportunity to let them know that as an American citizen, you believe that local media, "the small guys" need a fair chance. Tell them you support the application limit.

I'm talking about a TRUE "Till Death Do Us Part" kind of Love, NOT the "Hollywood" type popularized by the media...

Would YOU truly pass up something rare, real, and tangible over such a petty issue as Religion???

Yeah, it's a spin on this: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=An5V8ye7l12vvt.BrTwYuHPd7BR.?qid=20070906094232AAgHcTD

Christians, if for some reason you went to Hell would you be angry at God, or would you be okay with it? Would you think God was evil for putting you in Hell, or that He was just and you deserve to be there for an Eternity for your mistakes.

You can not say for sure if you are going to Heaven or Hell, so I see this as a valid question that should not be side stepped.

Thank you.

When I die and they lay me to rest gonna go to the place that's best. When they lay me down to die goin on up to the spirit in the sky. That's where I'm gonna go when I die...

Prepare yourself, you know it's a must...gotta have a friend in Jesus. So you know that when you die, he's gonna recommend you to the spirit in the sky!

Never been a sinner, I've never sinned. I've got a friend in Jesus so I kow when I die he's gonna set me up with the spirit in the sky....

Loses it's coolness without the music, but I love hippie Jesus music, don't you?

Adam and Eve did not commit any major crime -- they just had a little curiosity. And I think anybody who had any sense would have done the same. It was absolutely certain to happen -- because there is a deep need in man to know. It is intrinsic, it is not sin.

It is in the very nature of man to know. And God is prohibiting him. He is saying, "Remain ignorant."

Speaking of His return in Luke 17, the Lord Jesus says from verse 28,
"Likewise, even as it happened in the days of Lot: they were eating, they were drinking, they were buying, they were selling, they were planting, they were building;"
Verse 29 - "But ON THE DAY in which Lot went out from Sodom, it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all."
Verse 30 - "It will be IN THE SAME WAY on the day in which the Son of Man is revealed."

If we read the account of the destruction of Sodom & Gomorrah in Genesis 19, we see that after the righteous Lot was evacuated, judgement fell upon the two cities IMMEDIATELY(verses 22 - 24).
Doesn't this picture from the Lord show us that the interval between the rapture of the church & the judgement of the ungodly will be brief, rather than the 7 years which is commonly believed among those of a pre-trib perspective ?

Your thoughts, please ?

Thanks in advance for all polite, sincere answers.

May God bless you.

Because I've heard that some of them are just people who go outside with a sign that says "homeless" so they can get free money from people. I already make donations to soup kitchens and legitimate organizations like that, but when I pass by someone on the street, I don't want to look like I'm stuck-up or anything.

during the time of when Shakespeare wrote Macbeth, the people who went to see the play wouldn't say the actual name of the play, they would call it "The Scottish Play", in the fear of which at least one person would be cursed of die.

but why were the people so afraid of witches and witchcraft?

This I dont really understand he was being called out by other men so they could have their way with him sexualy and then the person that housed him offerd his Virgin Daughter and the mans concubine. so they took the concubine and sexually abused her all night til early morning and let her go. She went back to the house and lay at the door step and when her master came out they left and he went home with her and cut her into tweleve pieces limb by limb. and sent her body parts out to the town!

Why did he do this. Why did she have to die when he was the one who gave her to those men to abuse her. Was he teaching the land a lession by sending all her body parts to the town i dont understand it just made me feel really sad and think of alot of things that seem wrong with some of the things I read in the Bible I dont know need understanding Help!

It's been so hot and dry here that nothing has grown. I've watered the potted plants and the tomato patch, but everything else seems to be in suspended animation.

Recent rains have got the yard looking shaggy for the first time in two months, so we'll have to neaten that, otherwise, there really hasn't been much to do.
