It may be useless, but there is no way to know for sure until it's been done.

During my political science class a couple semesters ago my professor had mentioned that first-grade children can more accurately predict how an election will go than political science Ph.D's can. I guess that says something about the average USA voter.
[quote who="tbannister" comment="5"]Your post is fairly ironic.... Frankly, you should be ashamed of your snarky attitude and gross ignorance.[/quote] I would say the true irony lies in that very defensive statement.
Hmm, the quote function broke.
[quote who="whisper2" comment="491"][quote]Quote me Jesus, or quote me nothing at all. Titus doesn't mean anything to me. [/quote] This is rather foolish. Why would the Bible include anything other than Jesus' words if they were the only ones that mattered? Besides which, Jesus Himself quoted passages of Scripture from the Old Testament from time to time, so I think it is safe to say He doesn't agree with your view. [quote who="whisper2" comment="49
[quote who="mckulz" comment="2"]I downloaded a pirate version and you're absolutely right about the file transfering.[/quote] That's pretty stupid. You do realize this forum is run by Stardock, and that Stardock makes Multiplicity, the program you admit you stole? How about the fact that Stardock's CEO regularly visits this forum in particular? I mean, it's bad enough you downloaded a pirated version of the software, but rubbing it in the faces of Stardock employee
[quote quoting="article"]NO. It’s going to be HORRIBLE actually. At least, for the first month and a half it’ll be represent such a dense level of crapitude that it actually has its own detectable level of gravity.[/quote] Haha, okay, that's my quote of the day. Love it. [e digicons]:grin:[/e]
One bug that has been irritating me is that the edit function does not work in IE 8. When the button is clicked, nothing happens. If you click again it pops up a message saying something along the lines of "you already have a request in progress" but nothing ever happens. The edit function works perfectly in Firefox.
[quote who="CharlesCS" comment="11"]Sry leauki, I seem to be having trouble getting the images to work from the site I uploaded them to[/quote] Try www.imageshack.us for your picutre host.
[quote who="whisper2" comment="482"]Few surely doesn't mean hundreds of thousands, even in Jesus's time that was an awful lot of people.[/quote] Yes, but there are about 6.5 billion people on the planet. Put into perspective, half a million Christians would represent 0.0077% of the world's population.
I'm not sure Gatorade is the best way to rehydrate yourself, but I suppose it does have extra salt and other chemicals that you lose while sweating. Your experience with the Red Cross really served you well here, didn't it? I doubt many people would recognize the symptoms like that.
[quote who="Paladin77" comment="3"]JDthanks, I have 8 more books in the can not including adult books. Lookng for a publisher for my adult books.[/quote] And here I am, still working on just one. Or, well, sort of working on it. I might finish it before I die.
[quote who="taltamir" comment="6"]Daiwa raises an excellent point... this has been tried SEVERAL TIMES in the state level, the latest being the hawaii children welfcare system... which went bankrupt in 7 months. If it never worked ever in the past, why do you think it will now work when forced on the entire USA?[/quote] Socialism. It has been historically proven to be a failure no matter how you spin it - yet that doesn't keep people from trying it again.
This whole issue wouldn't be an issue at all if everyone was just responsible for their own healthcare.
[quote who="lulapilgrim" comment="256"]You completely missed the point. How so? [/quote] Well, let's see: [quote who="lulapilgrim" comment="246"]Again, and this is paramount...the Bible doesn't contradict itself and it's sure not about a numbers game. Those dozen other verses when taken in full context support St. James 2.[/quote] [quote who="IQofSpam" comment="238"]Isn't it more likely that those few were misinterpreted , rather than
[quote who="lulapilgrim" comment="299"]Good question and the answer is Yes. Not only because God has no "favorites", but also because, just like Adam and Eve, He gave us free will to know, love and serve Him by obeying His commandments or not. [/quote] So, God wasn't at all partial toward the Israelites in the Old Testament, who He decided to make His chosen nation for some unknown reason? It's not like they deserved to be recognized any
[quote who="lulapilgrim" comment="246"]And verse 14 finishes with the question ..."Shall faith be able to save him?"[/quote] I notice that your translation conveniently leaves out the word "such" before the word "faith" in said verse. It is amazing how much a single word can alter the meaning of a sentence. I imagine this comes from the Douay Rheims translation?
[quote who="lulapilgrim" comment="249"]That's also why I kept pointing out St. James 2 teaching, but it has fallen on deaf ears I guess.[/quote] That's funny, that's exactly what I thought after reading your reply to my last post. Not to sound rude, but I would appreciate it if you would at least read what I write before commenting on it. You completely missed the point.
Sometimes I suspect that what Obama really wants is to bring the USA to its knees. What if Obama honestly isn't trying to help the country at all? What if his real motive is to destroy it?
[quote who="lulapilgrim" comment="230"]KFC,I have no case to prove...just refute the one you are trying to make by your claims in your original article and by some of your remarks. You are the one claiming that salvation is by faith alone, so the proof text is upon you...but, it can't be done because "salvation by faith alone" is unScriptural. St. James 2 alone soundly refutes it and the Bible doesn't contradict itself.[/quote] Right, it doesn't. However more verses
This search issue has been resolved. Thanks Bara.
I recently finished reading a book titled "Green Rider" by Kristen Britian. It was alright I guess, not quite as fantasy-esque as is usual with that genre, which is a good thing. I don't see how people aren't sick to death of dragons by now. Or should I just say sick of Anne McCaffery? I really haven't been reading so much recently. It used to be that I would read 2-3 novels a week, while now I have a hard time finding even one I want to read.
[quote who="utemia" comment="24"]Had there been more regulation beforehand, such a combustible bubble might have not developed in the first place and all the problems that are there now might have been avoided. [/quote] Socialism operates on the principle that the government should control industry for the "good of all" because "greed inhibits harmony" or whatever. History tells us that socialism doesn't ever work. So I'm telling you that more government regulation is
[quote who="Infidel" comment="158"]But yet we're his best creation? Can you answer this? What difference do all of our promises make if what really matters is what we believe immediately before death? [/quote] To answer your first question, "best" doesn't necessarily mean "good." Best is a relative term. Humanity, like all of creation, now suffers under the curse of sin. To your second question, God doesn't need us. He doesn't n
I would be careful about using sarcasm in writing, it mostly doesn't come through - and even when it does, more often than not it just makes your statement confusing.
