Blood thirstiness in the bible

ivansama @ivansama (758) • Bulgaria 5 Nov 10

nas8228 The bible is the story of man. Take a look around. Man does some pretty messed up stuff all the time. The book is considered to be holy because its writing is said to be inspired by God. Did God make it all up? No, it all really happened (it's proven to be the...

About God, disbelief and turning Pasteur's wager upside-down

DawGwath @DawGwath (1042) • Romania 5 Nov 10

I am going to have a different approach to this matter, as opposed to many discussions that take place around here. I will use as an example Christianity and it's doctrines but I think this may apply to any religion...

nas8228 For starters, the bible never says that good people go to Heaven. In fact, it says the opposite. No man is good. We all break God's absolute laws are are all "bad" in his eyes. He originally created man for relationship with him. We have turned away from him...

nas8228 Anyone who grew up playing the NES knows that gameplay far exceeds graphics. Find almost anyone who was born between 1975 and 1985 and they can pick up an NES controller and play their old favs like they just put them away yesterday. Graphics are nice to look...

nas8228 In order to increase your vertical leap, you will need to build up muscle in your calves and your quads, but more importantly in your calves. Calf exercises are easy because they can be done anywhere. While standing, shift your weight to the balls of your feet...

Fasting

dolphin21 @dolphin21 (56) • United States 4 Nov 10

Iv tried fasting before. When I first tried it, it wasnt all that bad. Then hunger pain started to kick in, and would just get worse. Thats when I went to a bread fast. It works but I like bread to much, so I would get somewhat of...

nas8228 How long did you fast for? The act of fasting is to set aside something that you feel you need to have and putting God in its place. In the example of food, you abstain from food for a time period and everytime you get hungry, you use that time to spend with...

Spiders

kerriisthebest @kerriisthebest (448) • United States 3 Nov 10

Why don't spiders get stuck in there own web? I always wondered this because so many differnt bugs get stuck in the spiders web, but not spiders.

nas8228 The stickiness is actually generated by little "glue" spots on the web. They're like little dabs of glue placed strategically. The spider simply avoids the glue spots when they're on the web.

Any of you have tried Sculpey yet?

Gorillafootprints925 @Gorillafootprints925 (3586) • United States 31 Oct 10

It's a polymer clay that when you bake it it hardens and becomes plastic. I haven't used it yet but I'm going to explore this thing because from the videos I found on YouTube from Vinyl toy artists they bake them and customize...

nas8228 I've used it sparingly. It bonds to itself very well and doesn't get hard until you bake it. I enjoyed making mini-sculptures out of it, but never did anything serious. I've never tried putting on plastic. Sounds like an interesting idea, though.

Is Teacher Smarter Than Student?

ivanmarginal @ivanmarginal (675) • Indonesia 16 Oct 10

A common stereotype says that teacher is always smarter than student. I don't think so. Smartness doesn't heads its face to particular person or profession. smartness is just a matter of time. I mean, I don't believe that in the...

Listening to music.

judyihall @judyihall (22) • United States 17 Oct 10

I listen to music a lot when I am stressed and I get caught up in it and forget about what was wrong. Is it just me or are there others like that?

nas8228 I use music to help compliment all of my emotions. I enjoy all genre's of music. When I'm sad, I have a sad playlist (misery loves company, am I right?). When I'm happy, I have an upbeat playlist. I have one for anger, excitement, generally everything.

nas8228 It depends on your aspirations. You choose a college major typicaly when you have an idea of what job you want to do. If you can get that job without the advanced degree, then go get it! If you will need the M.S. to get that job, then stick it out a little bit...
