Re: Any other childfree people here?

Aldin, have you read the Mistborn trilogy? It's difficult to say why it's relevant without giving spoilers, but you should give it a read if you haven't already.

Disclaimer: the quality of the...

Re: Any other childfree people here?

HBO just started broadcasting a rather fascinating documentary "Questioning Darwin" where one pastor addressed this question in the starkest terms I've ever seen. He stated that if he found a passage...

Re: NFL Football Pick'em PRIZES

If you can easily rev last year's league (and have it automatically send out invites) it might be the better way to go. You could likely switch to confidence points in the process.

Re: NFL Football Pick'em PRIZES

With confidence points, you assign a "confidence" of between 1 and 16 points (no repeats) to each pick. Each correct pick gives you that number of points for the win. Obviously the total score each...

Re: Titanic, Gargantuan

This is frivolous, but I'll clarify. In your earlier message you defined huge to mean "the number of choices I make in my lifetime." If you identify that number with the symbol "huge" then the actual...

Re: Number Games

I'm clear on infinity (or at least our inability to "see" it). I was just interested in making the point that "huge" in your earlier message was insufficient. On a scale where huge is "the number of...

Which drives straight to GB's original point. You can be a really awful person and still go to Heaven as long as you've got faith. As I understand it, this is true even if you only find faith on your...

Closer to home, Bristlecone Pines also provide a good chronology. I remembered them shortly after I gave up the fight, but decided not to bring them up. I'm sure we will learn that the rate of tree...
