'Tis deja vu, we have another ice storm like the one in January. Trees down everywhere, electricity out in half the city and surrounding towns don't have any at all. We still have ours but tree branches are cracking and breaking everywhere, whole trees are falling with the weight of the ice, and it just keeps raining and freezing on. A six-inch branch came down out of my lirodendron tree as I was looking out the door a minute ago.
Not an avaliable generator in town, or kerosene or propane heater, and the city is putting its emergency plan in place this afternoon. Is anybody really ready for this kind of thing? What do you do to prepare for it?

What is the worst storm in your memory?

The worlds philosophy is tolerate do not condemned!?
Why does the world teach us, that we must tolerate everybody's wrong doing? Did Jesus tolerate sin no! Did any of the apostles, tolerate wrong doing? They confronted the problem and told them to repent. Why are Christians so naive today? Are you really reading the word of God? They are fallowing New Age beliefs. Do you really believe that if all the Apostles were preaching this love and not condemned sin, that anybody would of killed them! We the Christians; are to be hated; by the world, and if everybody loves you guess who is not there. Jesus said if they hated Me they will also hate you. He also said in the Gospel of John the world hates Me because I keep telling them that their ways are evil.( John 7:7.) Can you tell me-- about this word tolerance? I hate it. Sure Jesus had tolerance for the sinner, but never for the sin. Can you see the where this is leading. Where is the fear of the Lord, and how is, one to repent, if all is justified by the world’s tolerance. Christians we need another John the Baptist today. The whole body of Christ is being deceived by the New Age. Why does the world keep telling us to be tolerant? And were does justice take place. Today’s thinking brains! Today we have the smartest technology but we forgot our morals, and now we stand at the brink of disaster waiting to happen. We need to obey the laws Yeshua--Jesus has given us in His Holy Word the Bible. Anna http://www.jesussalvation.org

What is your explanation for this? We have more people in prison than China and Russia yet we have nowhere near the population of these countries... We even have more people in prison than Iran...

I was raised as a Protestant and am considering converting to Catholicism. My wife is a Catholic and it is much more important to her than my form of Christianity is to me. We've decided to raise our children as Catholics. The next logical step is for me to convert. However, I am pro-choice, pro-death penalty, and pro-birth control. Would it still be possible for me to become a Catholic?

Babies were shown a video where a character is trying to climb up a hill. Another character comes along and pushes it down the hill. Next, another character pushes it up the hill. 14 out of the 16 babies chose the character with the higher morales - the character that tried to help.

We can agree that these infants don't understand God at this age, but they still have morals.

What do you think of this research?

That are still living in environments similar to that of the setting of "Pirates of the Caribbean"? For example no electricity, or cars, people still carry swords and dress like they did in the 18th/early 19th century? If you have watched the films you'll know what i mean, i'm just curious as to if anyone still lives like this. Thanks.

Just a few minutes ago, my husband turned to me and offered me the last few crunchy pieces of white cheddar flavored popcorn. I declined. He then said to me “I always try to give you the very best, from the curliest of curly fries to the last half popped kernals of popcorn”.


My husand has always said things through the day to bring cheer into my life, and keep a smile on my face.

Do you recall any times similar to this that you have shared?

What has someone said to you in your life that, if nothing more, has brought a smile to your face? Please share the situation and the story.

There was these people protesting outside of a wedding. And when I was driving by all I could think was "there's a divorce court right over there." So why do (hardcore) Christians protest when gay people are getting married but not when people are getting divorced?
