[quote]hey watch it girlie!!![/quote] I'm just teasing! :D [quote]Hmmmm do you get all your doctrine from the entertainment world? Time to hit the books sistah![/quote] No, it was just funny. They die and go to hell, and each is faced with the worst memory or possibility from their mortal lives. And I thought to myself, "That probably is what Hell is like." Then I went camping. It was there that I decided that camping is my own personal hell. :D <br/

[quote]I don't agree with CB in that the bible is infallible. But you knew that right? But she's right, if you're going to quote scripture, at least open the book or get on a good bible site and start there. The KJV, THE NKJV, THE NIV, THE NASB are all good. Pick one.[/quote] I use the King James Version, with footnotes provided by the church. But when I quote stuff, it's usually de-mormonized. ;) [quote]I wish God would send someone and make sure everything is clarified

[quote]his false Christs including the upcoming Anti-Christ,[/quote] Well, we already know that the Anti-Christ is Mike Huckabee, so problem solved there. ;) Just teasing. Wanted to get your goat. So, I have no scripture or doctrine to back this up, in fact, my opinion of Hell is based on the movie "Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey." Hell is unique and individual for everyone. It is the thing we dreaded most in our mortal life. For me, if I go to Hell, I'

You know, Zoo, I don't normally disagree with you, but you're going a bit far, here. I'll say that evolution and creation can mesh, sure, but back off of the Bible. Yes, it is fallible. Yes, it has been copied and rewritten by flawed people more times than we can count. But if you want to Bible bash with KFC, at least use the actual Bible, quote the real text, and use the SAME VERSION. I'm done now. Have a lovely day. :D

[quote]I met a painfully beautiful girl the other day. She, too, is an Erasmus student, from Naples, Italy. And when I mean painfully beautiful, I'm not kidding around.

We do have our own blogs? Maybe I'm more computer broken than I thought, I can't seem to go anywhere but the forums. I'll get used to it, thanks for the info!

Um...New Joe User? in Blogging JoeUser Forums

So, um, I know that this new Joe User is supposed to be all fancy and better, but being as computer illiterate as I am, I don't think I like it as well. Honestly, though I used the forums more than the websites, I like how everyone had their own little space and we could find out stuff about them. It was nice. Now, I really don't know a whole lot about the internet and the technical side of JU, but I kind of miss the old one. Will the other features come back eve

[quote]Because of the wording in scripture. It's very clear that a day meant a 24 hour period. The word was olam and used as it was in the Hebrew it always meant 24 hours. Also even the most liberal scholars including a liberal translation of the bible will honestly acknowledge at least the writer of Genesis (Moses) believed it was a 24 hr period of time.[/quote] I know you'll have a wonderful comeback for this, and no, I can't cite the verse, but I swear that somewhere in the Bible it

Hey! Cool! That's exactly what I've been arguing in every single forum that discusses evolution here. Science and Religion don't have to be mutually exclusive. That's actually really interesting, that scientists have lost their jobs over believing that there's a creator, or a grand designer of the universe...interesting.

I think the whole thing is going to sparkle and shine and what better way to do it then with all these precious gems? I think God is saying we're worth it. But again, who cares what anything is made of when we're dead? It's not like we're going to need any of it. I'll take the figurative approac

Meh, being single isn't all bad. The only thing we're missing out on is the kissy-kissy. Which...depending on the person, isn't necessarily all that great. Like I said to Loca earlier...Singles of the world, unite! (unite in our hatred of this Hallmark Holiday, I mean) ;) By the way, did you know that Feb. 14 is actually the anniversary of St. Valentine's execution? Romantic, isn't it?

I'm in History 1700. Gen Ed history. We're studying about The Era of Good Feelings all the way to 1850 right now. I have a test tomorrow on it, in fact. And as I was reading about the election of 1828, it got me to thinking. Mudslinging has been around since 1824 in American elections, and we've almost always pulled through. So, here's the deal: At least these
