I live by a paper mill, every tree they cut down they have to plant a new one in its place. I feel the book I would like read, the tree that made it, has already been lost.
Trees are a renewable resource.

1 John 4:8 - "God is love."
1 Corinthians 13:4 - "Love is not jealous."
Exodus 34:14 - "God, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God."Ow...make the cognitive dissonance go away!

Well, I'm sure at some point someone will start citing the flashy/gory verses, but here
is something more subtle...The Order of events of the creation of the earth and life on it:
According to Genesis 1, God invents the following things in the following order:
--- light
--- darkness
--- heavens/expanse
--- dry land/sea.
--- "vegetation, plants yielding seed, and fruit trees..."
--- sun and moon ("lights in the expanse of the heavens..."
--- sea creatures and birds.
--- land animals - wild beasts, livestock and reptiles.
--- humans
--- the taking of napsAccording to Genesis 2, the order is:
--- Male human
--- Garden of Eden
--- Trees
--- Rivers
--- Work
--- Animals
--- Zoology
--- Female human
--- Marriage
--- NudityAnd now the list according to the fossil record, as written by something known as "reality"
(1) a beginning;
(2) light;
(3) sun and stars;
(4) primitive earth, moon, and atmosphere;
(5) dry land;
(6) sea creatures;
(7) some land plants;
(8) land creatures and more plants and sea creatures;
(9) flying creatures (insects) and more plants and land and sea creatures;
(10) mammals, and more land and sea animals, insects, and plants;
(11) the first birds,
(12) fruiting plants (which is what Genesis talks about) and more land, sea, and flying creatures;
(13) man and more of the various animals and plants.------------------
It's such a simple thing to get right... The order you summoned things into existence.
The Bible tries twice.
And is wrong.
Twice.[inkling]

US Exposes it's own Troops to Toxic Waste
by sammielee24 inthis can apply to any country - but shouldn't patriotism and those that serve to protect a country, be at the very least, given the utmost in care and consideration for putting their lives on the line?
first an occpation called a war - killing 5,000 us men and women; then we find out that a couple of those deaths were from faulty wiring and electrocution; then we find out they were paid less than the private contractors hired by the government; then we find out some of the water and food was no good; they come back and we now find 27,000 pieces of mail from vets to the veterans administration was thrown in a back room unopened and almost half of those coming back are still fighting for simple health care and benefits.
it just doesn't seem right....sammieswife.. the pentagon allegedly endangered u.s. soldiers by implementing and covering-up dangerously toxic waste-incineration practices at balad airbase in iraq during years past, as revealed in a leaked air force memo [pdf].

The Coming Evangelical Collapse
by SixofNine inoneida, ky. - we are on the verge within 10 years of a major collapse of evangelical christianity.
this breakdown will follow the deterioration of the mainline protestant world and it will fundamentally alter the religious and cultural environment in the west.
within two generations, evangelicalism will be a house deserted of half its occupants.

I asked for one example of a "real extreme evangelical" killing a "Dr that works at Planned Parenthood".
I'm still waiting for an answer.
Does Orthodox Presbyterian count?
"Evangelical" is a somewhat vague tag... Abortion clinic related violence tends to be committed by people
with conservative/fundamentalist Christian beliefs. Can we at least agree that is true?[inkling]

BTS:
....was so called "Evangelical Christianity." It was too narrow and restrictive a faith for me. It also felt very cultish and intolerant.
--------------
Everybody talks about these hateful Evangelicals. I may not agree with their theology but I've never been treated hatefully by an Evangelical Christian.BTS seems to be arguing with himself...
What you call "narrow, restrictive, cultish and intolerant", they would simply say is following
God's command to "Hate what is bad".All the weaselworded "hate the sin not the sinner" bullshit does nothing to change the brute
fact that many evangelicals act hatefully towards many groups of people.[inkling]

...will make it obvious that the dictionary definitions are biased.
This is, of course, a conspiracy by "Big Language" to suppress dissenting "Alternative Language",
in which words mean whatever the f**k we WANT them to mean.
Language is the property of the people! And I'm a people! Why is my dictionary be censored and
expelled from publishing houses and libraries?

Anything that keeps you motivated and entertained at the same time is accomplishing its purpose. Yes, walking will accomplish the same thing--no one is disputing this.
Yeah, his criticism is lame.
The point is that almost no one DOES walk an hour every day.
if they DID, they would already be "fit"
What we DO, is sit on our ass all day and play video games.
