[quote]I find the fearful claims of that couple of kooks to be amusing as hell. Some think it will create mini black holes that will devour the Earth, and another thinks it'll create a quasar that will destroy the Earth.[/quote] People always obsess about the end of the world...this is just one more doomsday scenario for them to go nuts about. Guess we'll find out tomorrow if it makes us implode. :) ~Zoo

[quote]Zoo's idea of 'virulent' wisdom is not new. This is what most religion is about, at the core of the various theologies. [/quote] Yeah, I suppose it is...unfortunately some of them take it WAY too far and bad things happen at that point. ~Zoo

[quote]Actually the human remains found in the Sahara date from about 5,000 years ago. At that time that area was lush and green.[/quote] Lush and green a few thousand years ago, I can go with. However, Anartica being a lush paradise has a considerable amount to do with plate tectonics...rather than just random warming and cooling. Also, I should clarify that when I said hundreds of thousands and millions of years I wasn't talking about the human remains. We wer

[quote]Scientists studying the ice came across the remnants of moss on a valley floor.

Now, it's just a desert.[/quote] A few thousand years? I think the correct number of years would be in the hundreds of thousands

[quote]When I'm tithing, I seem to always have enough money. When I don't, I always seem to be short. [/quote] Maybe you tithe because you have enough money and don't when you're short? That would be the cause and effect that makes the most sense. If God is providing...does he send you a check? ~Zoo

I understand the muteness. For me, I just feel...well, that it doesn't matter what the fuck I say about this or that. I ain't got the power nor the influence to do jack shit. I can sit around all day and debate finer points of politics...but, it doesn't do anything. I still have some ego about what I could do in this world...but bickering about this and that isn't the way to do it. Nah, when I change the world it will be by changing other people...that's all so

[quote]Oh, and that $1.75 - includes defense. [/quote] Heh, defense. :D I thought Alaska was a pretty quiet place. Defense from what? Rogue moose? Angry caribou? Outlaws on snowmobiles?

My church doesn't tithe. Well, that's probably because it doesn't really exist. :D I don't bother going to church. I figure I can hammer out my own relationship with God. Church is just too...churchy for me. Besides, I didn't know there was a deposit to get into Heaven. In response to your title question, you shouldn't go to hell for not paying tithe...and whoever is telling people that is an ass. It's important to give, but to give beyond

[quote]The thing is, each of these is everything, all inclusive, and therefore, inclusive of the dark side. We cannot have light without dark, for yin there must be yang.[/quote] I like the yin and yang view. Opposing forces yet two parts of a whole. The dual nature is really captivating for me. I'm not exactly sure why, but the world seems to make more sense when viewed in that light (or darkness [e classic];)[/e] ). ~Zoo
