ripley... you have to see past your nose and the snow bears on the porch.....

once the power plants are at half or less capacity you will conserve other fuels... electric cars for short trips and such... solar grids will continue to improve...other things will also happen from biofuels to nukes to who knows what.. In the U.S. a huge part of our energy demands are because of the inneficient power grid used to heat and cool homes... you have to pump all that power through small lines cause..... nobody wants em in their back yard...

The money put back into the economy from people who are saving 100-700 bucks a month on energy would be staggering.

There are a myriad of facinating solutions on the horizon.

new york city yellow cab co is changing to ford hybred minivans, they report fuel savings of 50%,

for the math inpaired that means they burn half as much gas.

we are a crisis oriented species... that is, we perform best when things are the most desperate.

My using up all the fuel I can is the solution to getting people off their duff and finding something better... those who conserve because it makes em feel better are really a part of the problem.. they are slowing any real progress.

yeah, and when the ***** hits the fan, they got no gas, no guns, and you can go and take their stuff away from them

According to the book of Revelations, the Beast causes the whole world to worship the Anti-Christ (or at least his image) and restores him to health after he receives a wound in the head.

The population of the world cannot buy or sell anything without having the mark of the Beast in their foreheads.

I have often thought that the appellation "Beast" may be a metaphor for something that is not human.

Try this on for size: Take the letters of the English alphabet and assign to each a value based on the number six: A is 6, B is 12, C is 18, and so forth.

Now, take the values of the letters to the word "computer" and total them up.

The sum is 666.

increadible!
If you do that for "Bozon" you get 432 which multiplied by the natural logarith e gives 666 with almost exact left over of 30!

Hmmmm............

and here I thought 666 meant 6th trump, 6th sign, 6th vial/seal.

Silly me.

Noooo, I'm asking questions. I heard an interview that asserted that, and I'm asking whether the author was off his rocker or if there were people out there who believed it. As the thread shows, there are, but they are in the minority.

Can I help you with something else?

lazs2 · « **Reply #55 on:** March 26, 2006, 10:39:27 AM »

Ok... so you knew that the vast majority of christians (and everyone else) don't think like that guy who.... probly 99% of the human race thinks is a nutjob....

that being the case.... then why did you post it? Why pretend that you "didn't know" if most people (religious or not) felt that way...

hell.... look at all the junk science "global warming" threads started.... probly a lot more people ready to slit their wrists over that drivel than any religious end of times.

I never assumed that most people would subscribe to it, but I _was_ curious if anyone did. I also wanted to hear Seagoon's thoughts on the subject because I know that he tracks most of what's happening in christian communities.

C'mon, thread stalking?

Laz thinks atheists are stupid, therefore he's a lefty liberal. See I can do it to.

lazs2 · « **Reply #58 on:** March 26, 2006, 10:55:13 AM »

suave... not what I said... I said that atheists religion was based on dishonesty or stupidity or both.

chair...obviously there will allways be a couple or more people that will subscribe to any nut job theory that comes down the pike. I am sorry but.... your explanation for starting the thread does not ring true. Are you saying that you did not start it in order to make fundamental christians look foolish?

I like Choirboy, but misleading headers and hidden agendas seem to be his MO in his political posts. It illustrates that the term "liberal" has become a dirty word. A lot of liberals are just afraid to just stand up and say what they mean, or admit that they are liberal or have those tendancies.
