Let me do some explaining first. Mesa Verde is a National Park near the four corners (NM, AZ, CO, UT). It is a park with many of the Anasazi Indians (AKA cliff dwellers) cliff dwellings. With that said here is the story. Some tourists asked me why did they put Mesa Verde so far from the highway. I'll tell you why, they got tired of hearing the semi

Loved the article. It made me think about the pitch being put on the boat inside and out. Pitch is the life force of a tree (just like the blood in animals). I think one could say that we represent the wood and G*d is the pitch and the water is the sin. Thanks you have enlightened my day!

I too am a white, middle class, single male. I totally understand your pain. I now have to pay off years of student loans because of my race. I went to a school with many native americans whom the college seemed to cater to but to me I had to scrape by to get through college. But if I complained about it I was labled as a whiny white boy. If I even thought of making a remark to my race I would be labled as racist. If they (minorities) grew up whe

Not to be "holier than thou" or anything but the * is to show reverence to the name of G*d meaning the almighty one. I also think that our society has belittled the reverence or significance of his name by using it loosely. This is the name of the Almighty G*D, just at the name nations would tremble. Where has that gone? I hope that helps answer your question.

I thought you were referring to Luke 18 verses 1 & 2. Sorry for the misunderstanding. It was monday and no coffee yet. I don't claim a religion I am a follower of the Torah (first five books) believing in the new and old testaments, similar to messianic judiasm. I am only letting you know where I am coming from and that I agree that spirituality is personal. May G-d bless you and keep you!

I have been thing the same thing for awhile now. I used to struggle with a definition when people would ask me what religion I was. I am not familiar with the Luke 18 story and will have to read it myself to make an evaluation but the idea that faith is personal and religion is about community is very true. I am learning that when G-d says he is going to come for his people he is referring to Israel he was not meaning the physical but the spiritual.

What is wrong with showing images on thousands dead? Are we afraid to be faced with the truth that thousands DID die? Have you forgotten what it felt that day to see your homeland under fire (now I feel like a country song)? Have you grown from what happened that day? Do you have a deeper appreciation for your local fire dept? Maybe this is the country boy in me coming out but we seem to be a society that has this bubble around us and if anyone d

I agree about cats good, dogs bad. I don't like the idea of having pets inside my house. If they pee on the carpet it is absorbed and there forever no matter how many times you clean, shampoo, scrub, etc... and every humid day you get a fresh reminder about what took place there. If you don't think they do that oh they do and they will.

Ever hear the song: Change my heart Oh G*d. make it ever true. Change my heart Oh G*d. May I be like you. You are the potter, and I am the clay. Mold me and make me this is what I pray. Change my heart Oh, G*d. make it ever true. Change my heart Oh, G*d. May I be like you. Well with that song in mind let me tell you

I feel for everyone who experiences this. I know when I feel like I am not breaking through I find myself questioning. I usually wind up saying G*d clear my mind and my heart so that I may hear your voice. Remember what you are asking for is it your will or his will. I know that this is easier said than done. I recently had to pray continous for over 7 months to see his will. I was even at the point where I would say G*D you missed it that was th

I was driving to work in a neighboring town and noticed a hitchhiker walking down the road. The peculiar thing about his is that he was holding his right ear. The poor guy must have an ear infection or his ear was hurt in some sort of manner right? NO! The guy was talking on a cell phone! Do you pick him up or do you let him call for a rid

As I had said before that I live in a mountain town that attracts alot of tourists. I was strolling down mainstreet on my way to eat some ice cream. I was stopped by some out of towners who asked, "Are you from here?" I acknowledged that I am. They looked at me and said, "Um can you tell me why they put the river so close to the train tracks?"

Growing up in a christian church I never understood the different aspects of G*d (God the father, God the son, and God the Holy Spirit). I am going to use the "Trinity" to explain this eventhough I believe that there is more to G*d than the "Trinity." Picture the Sun. The Sun provides us heat, light, and energy. We can say The Sun that provides us heat w
