    If you're talking about this thread, I opened it 3 days ago.
    What will people say if they hear that I'm a Jesus freak?
    What will people do if they find that it's true?
    I don't really care if they label me a Jesus freak, there is no disguising the truth!

    > You guys do know that Communism calls for a Violent, Bloody Revolution

    No, I believe that's "Violent Bloodyism" or something. Get real - that's the dumbest thing I've heard on this board in a long time (and I read each and every one of ken's posts! j/k - I try to avoid his posts at all costs)

    nv:
    Atheism is the blind belief that there is no god. An atheist thinks that the absence of positive proof is a proof of gods non-existance.
    Then when someone is in pain, you will not believe him because there is no proof?? How can you know if someone has a brain if there is no proof??

    I'm no doctor, so maybe there is a method to prove it. But if someone tells me he is in pain, I believe (!) him. There might be hints that make his sayings even more believable. If he has a knife sticking out of his back, it's a pretty strong reason to believe him.

    We can see the human brain. We can make tests with it. In the end, all is a kind of belief. Look at the wall. Do you believe it is there ? Yes. Why ? Because you have the neccessary hints.

    >Whatever, my history teacher taught us that..Maybe he was wrong.

    I tell you a little story about teachers: In Germany, in classes 12 and 13 before you do your Abitur exam ( A-Levels in the UK ), you can choose your majors. This is independent of what you want to study later on, it's just to polarize it a bit. Normal courses run 3 hours/week, majors 5 hours/week. Why do I tell you all that ? Well, I chose math ( obviously ) and as we had no CS major at school due to lack of teachers, I chose History as a second. Then there was a class that handled everything too new to be history already. Like how democracy works, general laws, politics, stuff like that. You had to take it, though I found it boring as hell. At the time I was in school, noone could decide if the system that called itself communism was still kicking.
    So I found myself with a nice situation: History taught communism, and politics taught communism as well. Two classes, but only a single need to learn something. Nice But no ! After the first test in both classes, those who took both had to see that while both taught communism, merging what they told us were facts was leading to catastrophic grades. One fact in class A was simply wrong in B and the other way round. You had to learn it twice. Communism/politics and communism/history. What does that say about communism/math and communism/break ? Learning about something that is not scientifically proven is strongly influenced by the view of your teacher. In a way that one teachers A would be anothers' F.

    Moral: Try to get an independent view, or a teacher that has the same oppinions you have.

    ok, i have no clue if anyone has brought this up because i havnt read all 15 pages of this thread...

    but Mr. gnu... im sad to say but you are going to hell

    gnu-ehacks
    31173 h4x0r

    you claim to be a hacker which is illeagally gaining access to some ones computer and either stealing, doing harm, or being a peeping-tom

    it is an equalibrium to breaking and entering at the very least (felony charges)

    so if you really are a hacker.... i hope you like the heat because god will be cooking your arse

    and if you arent a hacker... well, you lied and thats a sin (i think)

    i beleive in god... i just dont know which god is the real god... i wasnt raised as one specific religion so i never goto church or anything.... naohs arch was found which is in one of those bibles so thats umm... cool....

    but i just thought i would tell you about your evil hacker ways you 31337 h4x0|2 you...

    and from personal experiance, i have found people that refer to themselves as h4c0|2z (and other leet speek ways of spelling hacker) to be nothing more than a script kiddie no pun intended if you actually are the next kevin mitnick you claim to be (now that guy deserves to be called elite)

    this may sound like it but this post wasnt meant to be offending =)

    i dont see why he would want to live when he gets out of jail (if the gov. doesnt put him back in like they want to) because he will be banned from using or telling anyone how to use a computer.... im sorry but that would drive me insane... yes computers are that important to me... oh god im a nerd... eh who cares... i wanna be one =)

    atheits, as I see it, are people who are afraid that what they do in this life will negatively affect their next life. This leads them to totally deny the presence of a god.

    I ask all my athiest friends why they dont believe, they all say because they have never seen him. I say they have never seen the wind, does that mean it doesnt exist?
    No, They have seen the effect of the wind.
    AND I HAVE SEEN THE EFFECT OF GOD

    Too bad you feel that way... Most atheists I know think that when we die, we die... There's nothing after that.
