would suppy a family with protein pack milk for at least 12 years. from book "population, resources, and enviroment" it takes 60 pounds of water to grow 1 pound of wheat, while it takes 2,500 to 5,000 pounds of water to get 1 pound of red meat

isnt it funny how the fathers of western civilisation were vegetarian, socrates is another vegetarian

economic facts like this were known to the ancient greeks, in plato's "REPUBLIC book" the great philosopher socrates recommende a vegetarian diet, because it would allow a country to make the most intelligent use of its agricultural resources, he warn that if people eat to much animals, there would need to be far more pasturing land.
an acre of grains produces 5 times the protein than an acre of land set aside for meat production, acre of peas and beans is 10 times more protein, an acre of spinach is 28 times more protein than land set aside for meat production.

I'm not trying to offend anyone, explain my own religion or judge you.

I just really want a decent, well thought explanation as to why you have you current mindset, but you're free to be as brief or as long as you wish in your reply.

To create a human being capable of handling Gods’ power, He would have to be perfect in every sense. This means he would have to deny all that makes him human, which is a sinful nature. He would also have to reach a physical, spiritual and intellectual maturity as well. He would have to be almost super-human… reaching beyond most other humans and their usual capabilities.

This man would have to live a life, right from birth, to reach that state of perfection. He would have to be influenced by all the interactions in his life, all the people and every circumstance he is exposed to. It is only possible to deny his humanity by not being of humanity… so he would have to be isolated from everyone in his life, because they are of this world and he cannot, otherwise he would also be lost.

This man would not even know that God chose him to carry His burden because his birth would not be of a miraculous nature, but a real one.

Will you be ready for when the time comes?

This is Gods’ world. He knows everything about everything and everyone. He can only do what is within His power, His limitation, which is determined through His people and their dedication to Him. His people have the most intimate of connections with Him and He uses them accordingly for the better good. However, since very few people truly know and understand Him, His power is very restricted.

Therefore, He only a needs a few who have sacrificed everything for Him, if only, even just, one person. Only one person is needed to fulfill all of Gods’ requirements, that person alone with all of Gods’ power would be enough to bring an end to all the pain, suffering and despair this world is plagued with.

That person would have to go beyond all human limitations, to become a King of this world. He would have to prove that he has what it takes to be worthy of Gods’ grace, strength and power.

if you limit yourself to just reading only the Bible to know about God, doesn't that mean that you're knowledge of God may be lacking? do you think God has stopped talking, or working, as soon as the authors of the books in the Bible died and stopped writing?

are you saying that God is limited only in the Bible? you say God is great, but why do you seem to limit Him with just the Bible only?

just a thought, if you truly love God as you say, you would want to find out more about Him, wouldn't you? it's the same with loving another person, you would want to know more about that person, right?

are you sure you're not missing anything about God when you limit yourself to just reading your Bible?


*by the way, this question is for people who believe that Scripture alone is enough

Okay, we all start out in the Asteroid Belt. All of our parent species are taking rides in outer space. Our Martian mother- Marza, and our Jupiterian father- Jup-Jup decided to hold a contest. They wanted to see who could design the better species. Marza made the mammals, and Jup-Jup made the reptiles. So they made the species. They wanted to just send them off, but the animals refused. So they gave them free rides on the asteroids. Then, they turned the rockets on on the asteroids (making them comets). The animals streaked across space. Then they crashed landed on "Grandma Earth"'s front lawn. Grandma Earth wanted to teach them a lesson and decided to keep the prototypes. The reptiles were winning at first, that is until Jup-Jup got mad at Grandma Earth and made a prank sized asteroid, turned on the rocket, and shot it into Grandma Earth's property. That killed off the reptiles. Marza was declared the winner for now, and occasionally, they send their alien drones to check on us.

So I'm a graphic designer and always have friends and friends of friends asking me to design things for them.. posters,logo's, business cards etc.. I used to enjoy it and say yes, but now I find I don't have the time anymore, once I have gone to work, been to the gym, got home made dinner & done some cleaning, the last thing I want to do is do more work.. I have explained this to friends that ask for stuff to be done but it usually results in them begging or offering to pay.. I don't care about the money I woud rather watch tv or read a book in my spare time than do more design work.. I've really lost my passion for it lately and am getting more annoyed with requests of work from friends.. How do I say NO to them.. they keep begging or saying that there's no rush just when I get a chance to have a look for them.. and after they harp on it I usually cave and say yes and resent doing the work for them..
How can I get them to take no for an answer???

Do you think it's rude, or dis-respectful of me to say thanks, instead of Thank you, to adults and teachers? I really don't want to be rude, and it's a habbit of mine to say thanks, since I usually talk low, I can't say much... So, is it dis-respectful??? Because I know it's definitly not proper grammar to say thanks.. So, thank you to those who answer!~
