I downloaded an online casino (which I have used before; I had to restore my system recently, so I'm reloading it) and now when I try to open it, I get "Casino App has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience"

I've been looking for some kind of fix online but so far, no luck....any ideas out there?

thanks

I have some game program called ROHAN on my computer and can't remove it.

I HAVE tried to go through the program files to delete, and also tried going to the "Add/Remove Programs" through the Control Panel.

I emailed the website with a request for help, and they're apparently all blind over there.

It's eating up LOTS of memory....any suggestions?

I'm taking the LSW exam (bachelor's level) Thursday and wondering if I've studied the right things. Anyone out there have any helpful suggestions?

I am curious how familiar Catholics are with Queen Semiramis, wife of Nimrod (who attempted to build the Tower of Babel).

"Now, we have a woman in history who's forming a religion that is the opposite, the counterpart, the shadow of the true religion of God.

Now, what do we know about Nimrod's wife's religion? Well, she shrewdly conceived this religion based on the promises of Genesis 3:15. And here's what she did. She claimed that she gave birth to a son whom she said was miraculously conceived. In other words he was not the son of Nimrod. She had an "immaculate" conception. She had a virgin birth.

She also claimed that she was a part of the religious system; and so all the symbols of her religion, all the icons of her religion showed a mother and a child, the Madonna and child.

So, there was a woman--her--who was the center of her religion and the child she gives birth to (she claims) as a virgin.

I have a Fujitsu Stylistic notebook computer, and the screen is fairly small....so I also have a larger monitor which I would like to use as the primary.

I have the two computers hooked together....how do I get the picture on my smaller computer onto the larger monitor? I want the same picture on BOTH monitors.

I have tried going into "Properties/Settings" on the Fujitsu monitor and don't seem to be able to use that....maybe I'm doing something wrong.

Thanks SO MUCH for your help!!!

Okay, a question regarding evolution.

In order for something to 'adapt' or 'evolve' from one form into another, the process of natural selection is involved, correct? Natural selection is explained as:

"An organism may possess some inheritable trait or character which, in a given environment, gives that organism a greater chance of passing on all of its genes to the next generation (compared with those of its fellows which don't have it). Over succeeding generations that trait or character has a good chance of becoming more widespread in that population."

Okay. This being the case then change occurs when a species adapts a characteristic that it already has or loses a characteristic in order to better suit it's environment.

A species cannot develop NEW characteristics which it was not genetically coded for to begin with. In other words, "what natural selection actually does is get rid of information".

So how do we go from simple to complex?

Help.....I am a published author ("Fortune's Bride", Avon, 2/89, Cheryl Spencer) and am currently working on another manuscript and having trouble with Microsoft Word.

I have Word 2003 on the computer I just got, and am typing the manuscript into Word. What I want to do when it is finished is copy it to CD, which can then be sent to publishers for consideration. However, it won't copy to a CD for some reason.

Can anyone give me advice??

THANKS!!!!!!!!!

Okay, bear with me, I'm trying to follow a chain of thought here.

Those who answered the first follow up, I left some comments....you may wish to edit to respond on that one.

Okay....there are a great many people who have claimed to have had some personal experience with aliens/spaceships/etc.

Do these accounts tend to make you more or less willing to believe in aliens (or don't have an effect)?

Okay, I asked agnostics and atheists if you believed in life on other planets, and the overwhelming answer was yes.

Yet we have no proof of it. I am eliminating one answer which questions whether they're living in "another dimension"....but all the others seemed to indicate that the sheer SIZE of the universe led them to believe that we were probably not alone.

Now follow me here....being a Christian I wonder why the sheer complexity of that same universe does not lead you to think that God might exist, too.

It appears that you are willing to accept the possibility of aliens without ANY scientific proof that they exist, but for God you require some "proof". Doesn't that seem hypocritical?

I am NOT saying you are all hypocritical. If anything, agnostics and atheists are less so than Christians because they believe what they believe and don't say one thing and do another, which some people calling themselves "Christians" do.

Primarily for those who are either agnostic or atheist:

What is your stand on the existence of aliens?

If you believe they exist, then please tell me why (since, while there are a variety of "conspiracy theories", we have no real "proof")

I'm going to give this to you as a hypothetical situation, and want your response to the question at the end:

You are a Christian, and you have a child. You want to hire a caregiver for your child who will be in your home, and of course since this person will be spending time caring for your child, they will definitely have an influence on them.

You have an atheist who applies for the position, and you decline to hire them due to their belief system.

Okay, now the question: Is not hiring an atheist because of their belief system THE EQUIVALENT of not hiring a black person SOLELY because they are black?

"In 1952, a professor of military history, Sanders, set down three tests which can be used for any historical writing. He named these tests the bibliographic test, the internal test, and the external test. We can examine the Bible with these tests in the same way we would examine other ancient documents.....

Apart from the New Testament, the only other ancient writing which has any level of accuracy associated with it, is Homer. And yet the New Testament has a far higher degree of accuracy than Homer. Scholars universally accept the copies of Homer's writings as being accurate. It is undeniable, then, that the New Testament is by far the most accurately reconstructed ancient document. It passes the bibliographic test with flying colours."

``....Jesus...fulfilled over three hundred propecies (spoken by different voices over 500 years), including twenty-nine major prophecies fulfilled on a single day - the day he died.'' Since many of these prophecies were to do with the place and manner of his death, and even the place of his birth, he could hardly have deliberately set out to fulfil them!....

Just suppose the chance of each one of those prophecies being fulfilled in isolation was a very generous 50%. Then the chance of three hundred such prophecies all being fulfilled is the same as that of three hundred consecutive coin-tosses all

coming up tails: one in 203703597633448608626844568840... - that is, about one in two million million million million million million million million million million million million million million million."

Okay, I just read yet ANOTHER question about evolution.

I also read a VERY interesting article today and started to think, 'you know, who cares?'. I mean, it isn't really evolution we should be worried about, is it? It's whether we were created via Intelligent Design.

So....if Christians could concede the idea of evolution (PLEASE read this: http://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2007/march/37.... ) then how would our discussions change?

Evolutionists, are you atheists as well? Would Intelligent Design be just as serious an issue for you as 'instant creation without evolution'?

Atheists, I'm curious as to your reaction to the article in regard to the quotes from Francis Collins and Freeman Dyson.

Have at it.

I've been in this section for a few weeks now and something has been at the back of my mind, waiting for an answer, so I'd appreciate your personal input.

If you are an atheist, you do not believe in God, correct? This is in contrast to agnostics, who aren't sure. So if you are an atheist and do not believe in God, why would you spend any time at all at YA answering/asking questions about God? Or perhaps a better way of asking is, why do you have any interest in these Qs&As at all?

I don't mean to be rude or sound silly, but I was thinking about this last night, and I thought, if I didn't believe in something, for example, Mormonism, then I wouldn't have the first bit of interest in going to a Mormon blogsite and chatting with them. Unless of course, I was trying to learn as much as I could about Mormons in order to convert one....

Just wondering if you could give me some insight. Thanks!

"The Bible refers to many the common animals we know today. The list includes lions, wolves, bears, sheep, cattle and dogs along with various kinds of birds, rodents, reptiles, and insects. What is interesting is that this extensive list includes three animals that we no longer recognize. These three are (in the original Hebrew language) tanniyn, b@hemowth (yes, it’s spelled correctly—at least as close as we can get in Roman characters), and livyathan.

Although we alter the spelling of behemoth and Leviathan slightly, we still use those same words in bibles today. However, tanniyn is always translated into another word when we write it in English. Tanniyn occurs 28 times in the Bible and is normally translated “dragon.” It is also translated “serpent,” “sea monster,” “dinosaur,” “great creature,” and “reptile.” Behemoth and Leviathan are relatively specific creatures, perhaps each was a single kind of animal.

Okay, let's say for a minute, solely for the sake of argument, that we DID evolve from some lower form of life.

In regard to the Bible, let's say a "day" in God's terms may be a million years in our terms...so he creates the animals....then humans, from some lower life form, only millions of years later...

How does evolution destroy the idea of God? Is it not possible that if we did evolve from lower forms, that GOD initiated and oversaw evolution?

I generally ask questions in the Family/Relationships category, however, yesterday I came across this area and found it immediately intriguing.

There is something that I wonder about....

When answering a question that is about God/Jesus/the Bible, why do so many who claim to be believers answer glibly, sometimes carelessly, and often in a format that implies the answer is nothing more than their own opinion?

If you are answering a question regarding these issues should you not answer with something specific and concrete which supports your answer....namely, the word of God?

For example, I just answered a question in which someone asked why premarital sex is a sin. Many answered, most of whom obviously read and/or believe the Bible, but they all answered without Biblical reference. My answer was, simply "Because God says so," and then I backed it up with verses.

Any thoughts?
