My mother particularly was very superstitious. No tossing food to one another outside at night or a ghost might catch it, you'll eat it and get sick. I thought of this when I was going to toss an apple to my brother as he was getting into his car and he stopped me, walked back and got it. Still listening to her after all these years.

i watch this cat playing with a mouse when a truck started coming down the road-the cat looked up saw the truck and pick up the mouse- the cat walked out into the road holding the mouse and waited till the truck got close-then the cat dropped the mouse and ran to the side of the road---truck missed the mouse and the cat caught it again and continued playing with it---it seems like the cat at least had sense of vicious humor-do you think it has spirituality also?
thanks in advance for any answers and please dont get to serious here--smile and enjoy the night

At my school it seems like on average girls are smarter than guys, but the really smart people are almost exclusively male.

Anyone else find this video slightly subversive to a Christian point of view?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wRW40gtcp2I

If you're not into the whole video-watching or link-following thing, Larry sings to the sick pets, while Pa Grape quietly suggests a more effective solution to the problem. Could this be seen as an unintentional criticism of prayer relative to concrete action?

From the first time we met he has always given a such a high respect. He has never touched me, nor said anything distasteful, and has obviously made it clear to his employees and family to treat me with the same respect that he shows. Others have said though he has always been respectable to them but he has never shown any of them the respect that he shows me.

We lost contact with each other for several years until today. I was at work and heard him call my name. As always, he kept his usual 3ft distance from me and we began to catch up on lost time. Somewhere in the midst of chatting I noticed that he was looking at me very lovingly. For the first time had asked if he may call me and had given me his home phone number.
I am confused, is he interested in me in hopes of being more than friends in the future? or am I misreading him? I'm a little too embarrassed to ask him myself at the moment. Any advice will be helpful .... Thank you.

Many people think of sexuality as a biological matter. Yet, sexuality is mostly cutural.

Jesus Christ said it. In John 6:44 ( 44"No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him, and I will raise him up at the last day.) Also, John 6:65 (65He went on to say, "This is why I told you that no one can come to me unless the Father has enabled him.") Listen, some people just will not get it no matter how hard we try. For God made the world but the world did not know him. And he spoke the truth but the people hate the truth. aAnd flee from the light. Not everyone can know who Christ is only the ones who the Father wants. Let me ask you Christians who have a relationship, how lucky are you that God hand chose you for his kingdom? As far as I know we are blessed because we found the little gate to heaven, EVEN more blessed for we have walked through it. What's your response?

Did you know that Bill Gates' real name is William Henry Gates III? Nowadays, he is known as Bill Gates (III) where III means the order of third.

So what's so eerie about this name?

Well, if you take all the letters in Bill Gates III and then convert it into ASCII code (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) and then add up all the numbers.... You will get 666, which is the number of the beast.


B = 66
I = 73
L = 76
L = 76
G = 71
A = 65
T = 84
E = 69
S = 83
I = 1
I = 1
I = 1
-------
666
Coincidence? Perhaps....

Maybe, but take Windows 95 and do the same procedure and you will get 666 also. And even MS-DOS 6.31 adds up to 666.

Still think it is coincidence?

Stay with me... . It gets better.

For those of you who still have the old excel 95 (not office 97) try this out:

Open a new file
Scroll down to row 95
Click on the row 95 button to highlight the entire row
Press tab to move to the second column
Now, move your mouse and click on help at the top
Then click on "about Microsoft excel"
Press ctrl-alt-shift and click on the tech support button at the same time
A window will appear with the title: THE HALL OF TORTURED SOULS

This is really eerie, okay! It has a doom style format and you can walk all around the hall using the arrow keys. On the sides of the walls are the names of the tortured souls....

now walk up the stairs and then come back down, facing the blank wall.

Now type in EXCELKFA; this will open the blank wall to reveal another secret passage, walk through the passage and do not fall off. This is difficult to do. When you get to the end you will see something really, really eerie.

As of this point in time, countless witnesses all over the world have verified that it is a real eye opener. It could be a joke by MS programmers. Or is it?

Would it be too surprising if Bill Gates was the antichrist? After all, the bible foretells that someone powerful would rise up and lead the world to destruction. And Bill Gates definitely has this kind of power in his hands.

More than 80% of computers in the world today run on windows and DOS (including those at the Pentagon). If all of his products have some kind of small program embedded, like this "hall of tortured souls," that can give him control to set off nuclear arsenals, create havoc in security systems and financial systems all over the world, etc. All from his headquarters.

This isn't too far from reality. Just by using the Internet Explorer may just allow him to map out what you have on your computer bit by bit each time you log on. Perhaps the end of time is near and this is just a tip of the iceberg?

Quote from the Bible:

"He also forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name. This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man's number. His number is 666."
Revelation 13:16-18
This is something you should think about. If the Bible, in the book of Revelations, says that without the sign of the beast, one would not be able to buy, sell, do business transactions, etc., then my question to you now is this....

Is the Internet a necessity today for doing business? The Internet also bears the sign. Note that the Internet is often referred to as the World Wide Web, or www. Another way to write W is V/ or VI.


W W W
VI VI VI
6 6 6
Here is something to ponder. Isn't everything going towards the Internet? (i.e., buying, selling, business transactions) Isn't Microsoft always on the move to have a monopoly when it comes to software technology? And now the Internet?

Revelations also says that the mark of the beast will be carved on one's hand and on one's forehead. If the Internet would indeed be the beast, aren't we all starting to carry it on our hands and foreheads? The screen is the forehead and the hand uses the mouse.

Are things finally starting to fall into place or are we just letting our imagination run???? Remember, the devil came to cheat, steal and to destroy. So, be vigilant about Bill Gates and Microsoft!

Coincidence? Perhaps....

I know this isn't a LGBT issue. However, some people say that same sex marriage will lead to this. If it does, would you be okay with it or against it?

If you don't know what polygamy is, just go to the next question. (Yes, someone won't know what it is.)

I haven't seen him since the Bible. He saved the Jews in Egypt, yet we've had genocides in Rwanda, Sierra Leone, Sudan, Armenia, and where has he been? And then there's the mass killings of Persian kings, and in the Midiæval ages, etc. What happened, where has he been?

I was put here to change the world, to make people happy, to fix the problems and remove labels of the world. I almost lost my sister to Bulimia and I myself had both Anorexia and Bulimia and I realize that the most extrodaniry people do the most self distructing things to themselves and I'm going to change that. I'm going to get rid of labels like fat, skinny, popular, nerd, and things like that. Labels are wrong and they kill people. Every year and even everyday judgement of the world and individual people get worse and worse. People judge people on how much they weigh, how they look, how smart they are, their job, how much money they make, and its wrong. I'm going to be a recording artist and change the world with music, I have the power to change the world and so do you. What will you do with your life?
