    First-World Proselytizing

    The simple part of the answer is because if he magically made those sins disappear unpaid for then he would not be just and then not be God. Omnipotence is just one attribute of God but he is also Holy and Just and so to make sin not matter is to deny those parts of himself. Sin demands payment...

    For the people who know how to play an instrumet, how did you learn?

    I played trombone through college and so had the formal school instruction. Cyrus the Great was a fun march that I liked to play. Being in the band in college and having the good seats at the football games got me my girlfriend. Not really, after college I put down my instrument and have...

    Were you ever hit/spanked as a child?

    I was spanked when I was younger, sometimes with the wooden spoon. I also always knew it was coming and the details of why and were laid out so that I could see what I had done wrong.

    Poll: "Show a little sympathy; all death is tragic !"

    It is all tragic, as John Donne put it "No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main." and later "any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee."

    A Question for all you Global Warming skeptics

    Since I think any global temperature change has another explanation, such as the variance in sunspots and other factors that are outside of man's control, the need to switch over to some of these programs not only is a huge expenditure of funds but also is unlikely to do anything to help what it...
