This is very true. The spirit has been leading God's people since before there was a Bible.

I know I have not posted much here in, oh, a year - wanted you all to know I've been writing a new Bible. Gone will be all "problems" with the Bible. My new Bible will be 110% accurate, inoffensive, pro-woman, non-controversial and easy to read. By eliminating all the troublesome parts...

Well, they tossed Nuclear power over Chernobyl. They are seemingly trying to emphasize 'renewable' and 'green' sources - in the wake of a rising population. Meanwhile, China is building power plants (filthy plants) and no one says much about it.

They don't have the generation capacity. Don't ask me why not, but they just dont.

Yup. 15 amps at 220 volts. You can see why air conditioning is so seldom used over there.

3.3 kW at any one instant, from what the guy told me.

My Facebook thoughts; Two weeks ago, I posted on here that the USA is the only First World Country - or some such ignorant nonsense. Fact is, just cause people in, for example, Italy are limited to a 3.3kW electric consumption (try making A/C work with that amount of energy), does not mean they...

I"m 58, this is my first time out of country. I wish I'd gone on mission trips and other trips when I was younger - the ignorance I've lived in is shameful. And even cooking at home is not going to work as well as life in other countries. Our corporate farms and over processing of almost...

Ok, not sure I posted here, but the company sent me to Milan, Italy for two weeks. I got home last night. I was rejected as a kid for military service (in 1979) because of how my heart sounds -I have a bicuspid aortic valve. (Not a big deal when you are 19, but it scared the two teams of...

How did we get to where we are depending on China (or any other country) for medications?

First, we can't destroy the planet. Second, we could render it somewhat radioactive, inhospitable but we can't destroy it. Third, if there ever was enough hate to trigger a nuclear war, it's the Arabs against the Jews. The arabs should have attacked long ago, cause it's too late now - NO...

$7552.65 - the total cost to move me out here. I think I'm worth it. :) See, the company told me (and a lot of us) back in February that, in order to stay employed, we had to move from Georgia to Dallas, Texas. I initially resigned when I found out how good the severance package was...

There are numerous indications in scripture that we will know one another. In fact, I get the idea we will know EVERYONE - even those we never met. And I don't think that meeting an ex-spouse or anyone else will post a problem - for we will be changed, we will be spiritual beings in His...

It takes a LOT to get me angry, but I can get stressed easily. REALLY easily. Feeling pretty good right now, I'm hoping I don't need this thread anytime soon.

Best post of the whole thread.

In college (1998 or so) I wrote a paper, "Consumerism as Ideology". In the paper, I made the case that the driving ideology in the USA is consumerism. Not democracy, freedom, capitalism, Christianity, none of them. Our driving ideology is consumerism. I don't just think you are right, I...

I probably should not have clipped as much out or your post as I did, but the above is where I am at. The idea that money buys happiness is, of course, absurd. But the idea that living in poverty, or even in today's 'welfare class', is any way to be happy is also nonsense. I remember...

My post in the other thread has NOTHING to do with this, so just know that this is something I thought I'd get some input on. We've all heard it: "Money cant buy happiness". But is that true? Or to ask in another way, "Does lack, poverty, etc. 'buy' or mean that you will be unhappy? I...

I'm trying to be happy. But something happened Tuesday evening that has scared me to my soul. Bad enough that I prayed, "Lord, if this be my life, please take my life soon." Well, I'm better now and I'm still here... But I feel ............. scared. Unsure. Maybe I'll start a thread...

I"m going to bed. Just because I can.
