Hey how about some posts, I am waiting for the 12000 one so I can close this topic and start the sequel.Maybe there should be a prize for the 12000 post?Or maybe WJ could call all those who believe that the Father is the one true God a bunch of Polytheists as he has done in the past. That would surely ignite a few posts.

If he said “have you heard of a puppet show”, then your answer would probably be yes. But the fact that he used the definite article (THE) meant that he was identifying a pa…[Read more]

To Gene Balthrop.Before or post my reply, I want to get one thing straight regarding your understanding of John 1:1a.i.e., “In the beginning was the logos”.Are you saying that THE logos is using THE because the logos is actually God, therefore the use of the definite article with Logos?Or are you saying that the logos is an attribute of God and…[Read more]

Truth remains the same no matter how many ages pass.It is the things of this world that will pass away, but the truth will remain.Satan was defeated by a wisdom that predated him.

Na not me. It was Sir David Frederick Attenborough and he was born in 1926. I was born in the same century as him though.

He he. There is always the possibility that I also wrote the Wikipedia article.

Quote (Gene Balthrop @ Aug. 17 2008,04:45)T8….First of all lets establish one point, John 1:1 have be argued by nearly all religions over and over for hundreds of years so i don't think it as clear as you make it out to be.OK. Start with the first point then.In the beginning was THE logos.Why is there a definite article here, considering that…[Read more]

Quote (kejonn @ Aug. 16 2008,08:28)They have learned to tolerate difference though the bible does not hold to tolerance. Why is that?There is little tolerance of those who claim to be of the truth and are not. Those that do not claim such and live wickedly are tolerated from what I can see.The Pharisees got the biggest rebukes from Jesus whereas…[Read more]

Cool.In New Zealand one third of the native species do not fly.They had no predators and didn't need to fly. New Zealand also had the largest bird in the world at 12 feet high and we had the largest eagle too.But they were made extinct relatively recently. A real pity.The eagles use to attack and kill humans. They could crush a human skull in…[Read more]

They remind me a bit of Fantails in New Zealand. They also are not shy and they have a similar tail.Not sure if you have heard of a lyre bird of South Australia, they are amazing.

Quote (seekingtruth @ Aug. 17 2008,03:16)T8Quote I saw my first Hummingbird when I went to Colombia. I actually thought it was a kids toy and looked around for a kid with a remote control, because this thing was really small and flew like a dragonfly. It also had a base fluorescent green colour and reflected all sorts of other colours too. Are…[Read more]

I got sick in India too, but I did find India to be a great place to travel to. Lots of things to do, but waiting in queues was one thing that I didn't like. It can take half a day just organizing a train trip. In the end I ended up on the roof of the train with all the poor people. It was more fun up there anyway.

Yeah, the power of two is about right. Binary is used by computers because it represents the old IBM punch card and later a switch which both have only 2 states. That is why computers are so fast. They only have to compute 2 states even though they have to plough through an extraordinary amount of them.

Yeah I haven't done a bungee jump because I don't want to even take the small risk that something could go wrong. I remember as a kid the rope swings we made always snapped on me. I wasn't even a big kid. One time really early in the morning I went on a rope swing in a forest behind our house and I fell on my back onto a rock, lost my breath and…[Read more]
