Why doesn't God do God's work?

filmbuff @filmbuff (2909) • United States 3 Apr 08

This is a question I've been asking myself a lot lately. Granted, I'm very upset with God, life, and man right now; but the question to me seems a valid one. Some have said that it's not God but man who has created all the...

Is anyone watching the HBO Miniseries John Adams?

filmbuff @filmbuff (2909) • United States 26 Mar 08

This is a really, really good show. Paul Giamatti and Laura Linney Star in it and the acting, set, story, and costumes are just as good as what you expect from an HBO miniseries. I must admit that I've always been intrigued by...

filmbuff @filmbuff (2909) • United States 18 Mar 08

Living is a dangerous business. I can't count how many times I've been inches from death door; there were times I could taste the musty breath of the grim reaper yet some how miracles survived (mostly) unscathed. Here is story...

filmbuff @filmbuff (2909) • United States 17 Mar 08

Some people will go to the Doctor for a scratch, bruise or hangnail. Others won't go until they are forced, have a broken bone (if then) or heart failure. So which one are you? If you are the "avoid medical types" type,...
