Jerri--on island time, mon.
"I'm shocked--SHOCKED--to find out that gambling is going on in here." ...ok, so I am an atheist. Now I'd think that is a simple statement, but some folks keep asking about my 'beliefs'. So, I often say "I...do...not...believe...in...god.” --what part of that is difficult to understand? Here's my reason for being, being here anyway. If I can encourage another to see that many intelligent personages throughout history have poo-pooed* Christianity and indeed all religions, then my work will be done, my life will have been well-lived. So, I sprinkle my answers with quotes from Jefferson, Ingersoll, Jobs, and even Myron Cohen. ----- *Yes, poo-pooed. In the most poopist way. I think religion, generally, is the biggest con job ever played. I tremble with fear when I think what a person can do when they cease to think rationally and begin to simply 'have faith''.
Think maybe this Good Shepherd has been up in the hills a bit too long?
From the Gospel of Thomas, which the Powers-That-Were managed to leave out of the Canon:
Thomas 107. Jesus said, "The (Father's) kingdom is like a shepherd who had a hundred sheep. One of them, the largest, went astray. He left the ninety-nine and looked for the one until he found it. After he had toiled, he said to the sheep, 'I love you more than the ninety-nine.'"

8 AnswersReligion & Spirituality10 years agoWas Jesus the only one?
...who could raise the dead? Apparently not.

ok, it's faux news, but others have reported it too...ya think Jesus is the only guy who can raise the dead? And none of this 'he wasn't really dead' crap...nearly a day, getting stiffer all the time. And I don't mean that in a nice way.
10 AnswersReligion & Spirituality10 years agoPutting text into F keys? Hot keys?
There's got to be a gadget or something to allow words, even a short paragraph, to be placed into an F key...like, "Hi, how's it going?" could be assigned to F3. "I'm ok...just sitting around" would be assigned to F7. Then when in a chat room, I'd just hit F3 when I see a friend online.
Any ideas?
1 AnswerProgramming & Design1 decade agoDid you see Hawkings' latest comment?
He said, "I regard the brain as a computer which will stop working when its components fail. There is no heaven or afterlife for broken down computers; that is a fairy story for people afraid of the dark."
This was in an interview with a reporter from the Guardian. Oh, and answer if you wish. I really don't care what you think.
