I've cut into an avacado...you know...one of those cheap treats.
Will it still continue to ripen if I cover it in plastic wrap? Or is it too bad so sad?:( Thank You

is true why do people commit suicide? Isn't that an example of God giving someone more than they can bear? Of course everyone is different, what is too much for one person another may be able to handle, but if God knows us all individually then he would know that a burden would be too much for someone and that they would snap. So why does he give some people more burdens than they can bear?

Both indoors and outdoors. I have some cute stuff for inside use and I have some air-blown figures and scarecrows for outside. I've already started noticing a few people having some little things out. How early is too early?

Did he have arthritis, or was he just feeling a bit pooped after that crucifiction thing?
Surely he could have flown.
You'd think his old man would have popped for a chariot, or at least a pimped-out ox-cart.

interestingly there is a sermon series on line called
"Spectacular Sins and Their Global Purpose in the Glory of Christ very interesting how God can have an overarching purpose even in the sin of man. Is it thought provoking? Can God have a long term purpose even in spectacular sins?

Suppose God, who is perfect, made a car. You would expect the car to be PERFECT as well right? Well what if he made the car without wheels (babies born without arms or legs),... or a car with the engine on the outside (babies born with the heart on the outside), or a car with no windshield (babies born with no eyes or face? Obviously this design is not perfect, therefore they are either created imperfect or humans are not created all.

Please Google these birth defects to see what I mean. Then ask yourself: Is this perfect human design? Why doesn't God fix these babies? They never sinned to deserve these defects. And let it not be said that birth defects are sent as a punishment for our sins, for it is more prevalent among animals than among humans.

I know that once God begins a work in us, he will see to it that it is finished. But, when we die, as christians, does that mean God is just about done with his work?

A college professor, Steve Bitterman, was recently fired for suggesting that the story of Adam and Eve not be taken literally: http://www.sciencedaily.com/upi/index.php?feed=TopNews&article=UPI-1-20070922-17370900-bc-us-teacher.xml

He was terminated after a few students complained. Do you think this is an example of the choke hold Christianity has on politics and education? And can they really claim to be persecuted?

QUEEN OF THE SOUTH: Behold someone more powerful than Solomon is here...

Testament of Solomon is a book. Solomons temple was built by divine demons said to be brought to him by Satan himself: Who was Solomons true escort. A ring was given to him by the Angel Gabriel to have control over all Demons. The Ark of the Covenanent was placed inside of Solomons Temple. The Masons apron depicts craftsmenship as with the makers of the Ark - grand craftsmen of compass and ruler and the Ark one of there greatest secrets and Solomons grand weapon and his love. This is real meaning of there s. geometry and there Temples signature.

The resurrection of the real Temple... and its rulers again = DIVINE DEMONS: The Ark placed in the center of the Labrynth along with the book and the blood to crack the seal held by Lillith's, descendant's daughter.

A PURE RACE... THE DAUGHTER OF LILLITH AND OF ADAM. THE SACRED GATE KEEPER AND TRUE HEIR TO THE THRONE OF GOD. HERALDED BY BOTH SIDES.

why isnt it considered a hate crime that six Black dudes beat up a White boy, but then they think that those White dudes who jumped on robert Bailey at that "White" party isnt a hate crime? And also that White guy who pulled a gun on those Black guys too? How come yall always try to ignore that?

And please notice I said SOME of yall.

Background information: My office is open 7 days a week. Employees bid at intervals for new hours and days off based on senority.

Okay, I was taking a walk through the office and I came across a young woman in tears, talking with her co-workers. She was under a great deal of stress, in her work, her private life, her family. It's simply a difficult time for her right now.

She went on to say that she was always tired because she had "split days off" - she has Sunday and Wednesday off. She is at her wits end because she can't ever get done what she needs to with her days off.

One of the other women there said to her "well why don't you ask X to change your off days. I've got Wednesday and Thursday and I'm fine."

The womans response was a look of horror as she said "You mean work on the sabbath? I could never do that!"

Bah I'm wordy today - the actual question in details in a second...
