I wish there was a way to do lipo on your butt, then take the fat from your butt and inject it into your boobies. That way, you have the best of both worlds!

The trick is NOT to look for what you want in the Bible. Does anyone know the reason the Bible is called a double edged sword? Because it convicts. It tells you things you might not want to hear. The Bible is a divine, holy, COMMAND, not whatever you want it to be. God has told us how He wants us to live our lives, but He does give us a choice. That's what makes salvation so wonderful. Those that choose to live their lives according to the Bible will live forever in Heaven, those who do not will go to Hell. Jesus makes that clear in Revelation. YES, that is how the world will end, point blank. You can't pick and choose what you want to believe out of the Bible. Either believe all of it, or believe none of it. If you are hot, God is happy. If you are cold, God is unhappy, but at least there is hope. If you are lukewarm, God will spit you out of His mouth. (Check out Jesus' letter to the church of Laodicea in Revelation ch. 3) Not only that, the original Greek word used meant vomit, not just spit. It is a violent outpouring. Do not belittle what God has created.

Actually exactly the opposite is true. When you have faith you are limitless.. When you don't have faith you are very limited... I think what she meant by the 90% comment was meant to show that if you don't stand for something whether that is believing in God than you stand for nothing. Where do you stand? I am what I would call a believer. I believe in God and I am saved. I am a person of faith. Hard to explain really but life get's much easier to handle when you know God is with you.

I have read almost every post in this thread, and I have to say that I am astonished, but not so much surprised. The only for sure thing that I can gather from this is that 90% of you aren't sure of what you believe, but are looking for an answer somewhere. I tell you the truth, God is the only answer. When you find God you will find the most important answer there is, WHY are we here? We are here in order to carry out God's perfect plan. HOW we got here is answered in the book of Genesis, the very first book of the Bible. Of course, the exact scientific data isn't there, but it was written in such a way that thousands of generations could read and get a vague understanding. Who cares HOW God put us on the earth, just know that He DID! I am a very devout Christian, and I think that the little specifics of the Bible, i.e. sprinkle, pour, or dunk, shouldn't be argued over. They are doing nothing but driving a wedge in between us, hince we get denominations. We should concentrate on the big picture, that Jesus came to earth as God in human form to save the world, and became a bridge between man and God the Father. If the trinity confuses you, think of it scientifically...water, ice, steam...all the same element right? Yes, just in different forms. It's the same thing with God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit...same thing, just different forms. As a Christian it is my responsibility to spread the word of God as much as possible, and somehow make a difference in the world. I promise you, nothing has ever given me as much hope, joy, and peace than having a relationship with the living God. I would say to any of you, read the Bible, preferably the gospels Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, and all of your questions for life will be answered. But be careful not to read INTO the Bible, read OUT of it. The story of the apostle Paul is quite amazing as well. He wrote the epistles, which are letters to many churches of his time. They begin with Romans and end with Ephesians I think, I don't have my Bible with me right now. If any of you have any questions, don't hesitate to email me or something.

Green Day rules! They are my favorite, next to No Doubt. I like any kind of punk and ska. It makes me smile

I was just wondering if it was common for your ears to hurt for a while after jumping. Mine hurt for about a day after I jump, but just the right one. Thanks!

Me too, me too!!! My mom and I would watch it for the whole month of December! And here, it would come on TBS for 24 hours straight!!!!! They still do that on Christmas Eve I think. I ended up buying it a couple of years ago

I sent a link of this thread to my boyfriend. He will be forever grateful to you Kim When once you have tasted flight you will always walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward; for there you have been and there you will long to return.-Leonardo DiVinci

I have HEARD that only 1% of Americans have jumped before. I don't know if that is only adults that are qualified, but it's not much!

Hehehee I really don't have a problem with SUV's if people use them for the purposes they were intended. Let's study this more closely...SUV=Sport Utility Vehicle NOT IDMKTSPSIHTDTEV=I drive my kid to soccer practice, so I have to drive this enormous vehicle! If you're gonna use it to 4-wheel it through the woods, fine, but don't block the road with it because you need more room to take your kids to soccer practice! I'm not a pilot, therefore I have no need for an airplane. 30 something housewives are not going backpacking in rough terrain, so don't buy a car that's built for that! I believe a midsize sedan has just enough room for children and belongings! Wheeew!

I totally agree. I can't wait until I can officially call myself one I'm still a student, but I want to learn everything I can. Of course, I guess that's why I'm lurking around here!

I have the regular edition at home. I bought it like the first week it came out, and I was very dissappointed when the regular dvd had a trailer for the special edition on it! But I've already got it, so I'm not going to buy another one. I was wondering if the special was that much better than the original though. Oh, and if I lived there I might go with you, but I don't Kim When once you have tasted flight you will always walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward; for there you have been and there you will long to return.-Leonardo DiVinci

I don't think I am, but my boyfriend says I am He says I'm just really friendly to guys I meet for the first time, so they think I am flirting with them. I don't think it bothers him though, because he knows I don't mean anything by it. Besides, I'll be leaving with him anyway Kim When once you have tasted flight you will always walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward; for there you have been and there you will long to return.-Leonardo DiVinci

That's really cool! The south has a lot of history and old time stories to it that you just can't find anywhere else. I used to be embarrassed to say that I was from Alabama when I would go on vacation, but now I really embrace the heritage that I've learned about from my family, especially from my grandparents. There is a slow pace and friendly atmosphere here that I really love. The older I get, the more old fashioned I get. The only thing I used to think about was leaving home and going somewhere more exciting, but now I love it here, and have come to appreciate my home. I have a lot of wonderful memories here
