  Interesting.

  1. Yes, I believe in a Creator.
  2. Ha ha. Yes, I've attended meetings of JW's
  3. No.
  4. No.
  5. No.
  6. I really don't think so. Although to be a Christian as indicated by the Bible, one would think this is the case.
  7. I find there are inconsistencies which are difficult to explain away. I am not sure how to answer this question.
  8. I haven't investigated other books, so I am unsure, and even if I did, on what basis can I really prove their inspiration?
  9. I would lean towards believing that there is some sort of judgement day. On what exactly that judgement will be based upon, how it will take place and what the judgement and reward end up to be specifically, i'm not sure
  10. I believe we are living in the "last days". How long the "last days" are, i'm not sure. I see mankind at somepoint reaching some sort of critical point. Nothing physical lasts forever, the earth, and its resources and its capacities are finite and at some point, something must happen. I prefer to leave this in God's hands rather than believe in blind chance or mankind's perhaps noble, but ultimately futile endeavours.

  Hey Zep,

  Do you ever watch reruns of Taxi on the tele? What do you think of the Jim Ignatowski character played by Christopher Lloyd? ... What's that you say? Why? Oh, no reason!
