FOCA (Freedom of Choice Act) will wipe away the right of every parent to stop their daughters from having an abortion.

One friend, who I discussed this with, said the following-- and I agree with her:

"I am grieved beyond measure that such should ever be even “debated” by our elected officials. We have come far from our founding documents which stated that life was an inalienable right—from our Creator. Now we’ve decided at the highest level of the land that the STATE bestows the right to life. We’re right back where we were as colonies under a monarch. The one thing that made America different from all the other nations of the world was that we said these rights came from God. Well, we all know that when the STATE decides who dies and who lives, it can be one group one day—and one group the next."

My HP zd7000 had a hard drive crash several months ago. After my son replaced the hard drive it worked fine for a while. However, everytime I started the computer it first would go to a black screen which said: Press <F1> to resume, <F10> to set up. After pushing F1, it would start and work fine for a while. After 2-3 hours, or less, the hard drive starts humming like a DVD drive and within a few minutes the computer freezes and eventually either has a blue screen come up or a black screen.

All I can do is turn the power button off and let it cool down for a few hours. Then it will start again, but I can't trust it to keep going.

I have cleaned out the heatsink, and always tilt the computer on the edge of a book, so that there will be enough circulation underneath, but the problem still persists.

I live in a developing country and knowledgeable people are hard to come by.

Anyone have a clue what I can do to solve the problem?

1. What was the defining influence that made you become an atheist?

2. At what age did you become an atheist?

3. What was your religious/denominational background?

4. How did your becoming an atheist affect your relationship with your loved ones? Were there a lot of negative reactions?

My son's desk top computer doesn't work, so he is presently using my laptop. If you could help with this problem, I would be VERY grateful. It would be nice to get my laptop back : )

(He is 14 years old).

"Ok so my computer recently got messed up. I did the repair setup thing that i read about and now in the setup its run into the asms file not found. My harddrive is NTFS or whatever, and none of Microsoft's solutions for NTFS or FAT32/FAT drives work. Yes i have a copy of win98 but when i try to copy the file or whatever it doesn't work, says theres no such file. I tried the regedit stuff and none of that works, i dont even have the stuff if suggests. I have tried all other stuff any options on the XP disk and this is where i am."

What was your reaction to it? Has it changed your faith in God's Word in any way?

Do you have any suggestions for books to study or website links?

Can you provide website links where I can study this further?

What do you have to DO to be considered born again? Does infant baptism make you born again? Are there Catholics who are not born again?

Did you have a special revelation from God? Did studying the Bible with an open mind do it? I'd like to hear your story.

would you surrender your life to Him, no matter what the cost?

What kind of revelation are you looking for?
