In effetti,l'arte e un qualcosa di misterioso che ci circonda. Ma poiche il nostro sentire e piu condizionato dalla logica che dall'inconscio che governa il mondo,il potere magico dell'arte ci sfugge

Now that I am losing weight I seeing the way people treat you before and after.

It is like when you are overweight people use these to describe you

1. pretty face
2. your funny
3. great personality
4. sweet

But no one wants to date you. Once you are thin (or I am thin) I can be a total ***** to any guy I please and you know what he will say? That "other people just don't get me like he does" or that I am "Really sweet on the inside" or that he will be patient because he loves me. I have not had this happen to me yet but I notice it in others and expect similar to happen to me.

The world is forgiving and patient when you are slim.

When you are fat, all ppl can say is nice things but never date you.

that Catholics aren't Christians, or aren't "real" Christians? Do these people know nothing about their history? Don't they know what people were protesting when they became "Protestants?" Do they realize there are a few books missing from the KJV of the Bible?

I feel saddened by all the terrible problems in Africa. I want to help solve them. I live in orange county so I would like to volunteer in or near that area for a legitimate organization that is actually effectively doing something to solve a real problem.

So I am neither an atheist nor a theist, but I want to get your feedback on the following scenario. So evolutionists believe that through the progress of millions upon millions of years, we came into existence (and obviously without the help of a God). That means that intelligence can be created out of nothing, as long as long periods of time are given for it to be produced. So why couldn't evolution produce some all mighty- all knowing being as well?

Evolution produced us, beings who can create computers, drive vehicles, do mathematic calculations, and we keep advancing more and more.

Doesn't it make sense to say that through all the evolutions that make have occured in negative infinity (inifinity before out existence) some sort of God could have been produced via evolution?

As the evolution theory goes........ Homo Sapiens in due course of time which was millions of years, the Apes, our forefathers changed according to the environment and started walking on two limbs, then came Neanderthals and lastly Homo Sapiens developed from them.The main theme is that evolution was caused due to impact of environment, genetic drift, adaptations,natural selection and mutation in the genetic order.Forget about the missing link.

Now while other species of almost all vertiberates both male and female developed in harmony and look alike while in men the female became little smaller than male and her larynx size changed to produce high pitched sound. etc, etc


My question is that while both males and females of Homo Sapiens developed and had to face the same climate and environment over millions of years, why these changes took place differently ?Why didn't both responded similarly to the rules of evolution ?

Did God want us to be different ?

Okay, they don't need any proof to swallow what it is they believe. And yet they deny that emphatically. So therefore they are in denial about something they have no clue of; that's not scientific.

So while they are espousing Atheism, they admit to being unscientific ( ipso facto), and therefore illogical to the Methods of Science. It's obviously important to them, many are here every single day preaching it.

They attribute logic to other things perhaps, but by definition they are irrational and faithful to their beliefs of God's existence.

I would not ask for logic from a people who are by definition wandering away from the very precepts they attest to, and yet living in the conflict of their own denial.

You cannot get a rational answer from such a person whose demeanor is set so deep in denial. They will rationalize their answers; some by avoiding the question, and some by denying the charge.

only approximately six thousand years ago if we, as humans, have been around for hundreds of thousands of years? Does that mean that the existence of the people that lived before this small fraction of an era was pointless?

The pope is creepy and all the other ones are old farts who got nothing to do but put their noses in women's business.
Why can't they shut up and realize that their opinion is completely obsolete nowadays?

My firm belief is that you should never host a party unless you are willing and able to cover all costs associated.

1. I went to a party where on the letter it stated that dinner would cost $20. It was quite awkward at the end when the hostess asked everyone for money (and she could have easily paid for it herself).

2. Another party I've been to recently the hostess paid for everything but guests felt that they were expected to chip in (and it became another awkward situation).
I ended up covering some of my dessert and my drinks which I find fair as I was invited to the party.

3. At a house party (a birthday again) everyone was asked for money at the door. There were not many costs for the party but the host's justification was that not many would bring presents so is that an ok arrangement?
A solution to this last situation I think is leaving a tin at the front and letting everyone donate how much that they feel they are happy to give-a proven honesty system.

Most people say this is from the Bible. Is it? Or is it a 'trick question'? 10 points for the first correct answer.

I thought he had some good points. That the early publishing of the Gospels gives them credit. That may have even been 30 years after his death. That even the oral tradition held back them was found to be extraordinarily accurate and of course kept by trained men who memorized the whole tor rah. That Jesus apostles who lived when Jesus was alive died for Jesus sake knowing they were not dying for a lie. More than one disciple died for this cause. The urgency of a Roman guard to keep his post and be alert to keep his post as the grave was guarded. Not to mention all the old testament scriptures Jesus fulfilled. Below follows a link to 365 prophecies fulfilled by Jesus. http://www.bibleprobe.com/300great.htm
or http://www.bibleprobe.com/365messianicprophecies.htm
the chances that Jesus would fulfill all these is mathematically silly. But it happened. The Fulfillment of the New Covenant Prophesied. Jeremiah 31:33-34, Hebrews 8:7-11
So did I leave anything out?
