I always seem to get messages that say that i've "won a free ipod" and such online...but everytime i look, all i get is junk mail :oops:

New world order!!!!! heh :oops: anyways that really sucks...your country needs to jump on the habeous corpus bandwagon. but then again everything over here isn't too great either....with the passing of the patroit act we now can have our phone lines tapped at the cops' will, warrentless searches once again at will, and the best one - a new definition of a terroritst: anyone who endanger's a human life. while it seems reasonable, think about how its ment to be read...in "lawyer speak". with this said, if i jaywalk, i am now officially a "terrorist" because im endangering my life and any other drivers on the road.

just give out toothbrushes and peanuts...this one guy a block away from me gives them out every year...i dont go to his house anymore lol :lol:

Well after I developed gingivitus from my braces (its happens fairly commonly as its extremely hard to brush around the wires) I now do a bunch. I brush my teeth, then floss, then mouthwash, then brush my retainer, then put in my retainer...i do that every night. In the mornings i just brush and mouthwash.

One day i went to get gas at the station. It wasn't really functioning very well and I had problems just getting the take full. Eventually I do and I leave the station. After going about 40 feet I start freaking out. I say to my sister * i think im leaking gass!!!! i think im gonna stall!!* she's like are you serious??... i cant see anything from here. Heh after much panic, I realised that the "E" i thought it was on was in reality an "F". Heh completely serious too.

heh i can do it if need be :lol:

Did you even read what I had posted in that link? You probably didnt', I mainly focused what happened on other parts of Europe. Nope I didn't :? ......i'll check it out now. Edit: I read the last 4 pages of it....i'll try to comment on it tomorrow as its almost midnight here and i have a busy day tommorow.

The reason that the crusades occured was because at the time Jerusalem and the surrounding parts where controlled by Muslims. The problem with this is that at the time, Christian pilgrims that wanted to visit Jerusalem were either slaughtered or not given access to it. The reason why there was this christian war against the saracens (the empire who held it at the time) was because it was christians who were most affected by people who held the territory. The same goes for any other war, the people fighting are usually fighting because they were the ones most affected by the reason to start the war. Now eventually, the later crusades became corrupt (such as i believe in the 4th crusade when they originally were going to attack jerusalem, they instead sacked constantinople because it was such a large city of trade and was competing with the italian cities (the ones who started this crusade)) but originally, they were ment for a good cause. Please read my 2nd post on page 7 on this topic for an answer to this one :? http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?t=321916&start=90

We have over 5000 manuscripts of the New Testament alone (all or parts of it) with examples dating back to the 2nd century and back to the 4th century B.C. for the Old Testament. The copies we have do not look exaclty alike. But make no mistake, scribes were generally very careful, and you can rest assured that there is not textual dispute about eh vast majority of the Bible. Yet because of the differences in the copies, we need some way to trying to determine which copy is more likely to reflect the original text. Enter in textual criticism. Textual criticism is a techinal discipline that compares the various copies of a biblical test in an effort to determine what was the most likely the original text. Here's a to the point essay i found on the topic (feel free to skip over it if you really dont care as they are not my words): As for your lucifer story, its probably true. Lucifer is called the angel of light as he was the first of all the angels in heaven before his fall. Now as for Hieronymus mistakingly translating a phrase that was ment towards jesus in favor of lucifer, it doesn't really matter in the large scheme of things. 4999 translations clearly would override that 1 translation and it would (and should) be considered and obvious error of the scribe. Errors due happen, i even heard a story about some translators in the 18th century who translated "though shalt not commit murder" and accidentally left out the "not". But yet again all we simply do is view the error as what it is, an error.

If you think it's spelt Vallok, I think you really joined yesterday :lol: Also, you only could have gone to level 52 wild if you have gotten membership soon after leaving tutorial island :roll: yah i realised he was an idiot after looking about 7 topics down and seeing "What stupid things did you think/do when you first joined?"........

:x this is rediculous. I cant believe the catholic church. If they feel that part of the Bible is wrong, what makes the other parts right? I am ashamed of them.

Lets look at 2 passages shall we? First, Galatians 2:16 "16know that a man is not justified by observing the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ. So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by observing the law, because by observing the law no one will be justified." Secondly, Ephesians 2:8-9 "8For it is by grace you have been saved, through faithÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ã

Yes you would believe your parents point of view on religion and would be brought up to believe Islam (or whatever religion it is i.e Christianity) is true. But as you grow into an adult you have free will to believe in whatever you want. So someone might say well what happens for the young kids who die believing in Islam because their parents did. Well thankfully it says in the Bible that the young up until one turning into an adult will go to heaven if they die. :) Also it says that just believing that Jesus is real and was a prophet will not give you eternal life but you have to confess that He is our saviour and the messiah who came to Earth and died on the cross for our sins. That is the way to get to Heaven the Bible says :) Anyway that is my personal belief which I believe is true and I hope I didn't cause offense to anyone but hopefully gave an insight to a Christian's belief. While your arguement is just, if you were to look into the bible, you would find no such verse. What is true is that we well be held accountable according to what we know. Psalms 19:1-2 says "1 The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.". Romans 1:18-20 then goes on to say "18The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness, 19since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. 20For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualitiesÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ã

Let not take verses out of context shall we? Lets look at the 2 verses that appear before Numbers 25:4......" 1 While Israel was staying in [cabbage]tim, the men began to indulge in sexual immorality with Moabite women, 2 who invited them to the sacrifices to their gods. The people ate and bowed down before these gods. 3 So Israel joined in worshiping the Baal of Peor. And the LORD's anger burned against them." Now why was the Lord angry? The Jews were God's chosen people, and if you skip back to chapters 21 and 22 you see that God had just rescused them by defeating their enemies who were attacking them without cause. Now right after God did this, some of the Jewish men began staying with the local woman and began worshipping their gods. Because the men so unrightously turned away from what they new to be true, they were punished. Now lets look at 1 Samuel 6:19. Here we see God "slaughtering" many a men. Why you ask? Turn to Numbers 4:20 where it says "20 But they shall not go in to watch while the holy things are being covered, lest they die.ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬ÃâÃ
