So there are racetracks in heaven?
What about casinos?
Do casinos give back their edge?
Anybody ever get comped?

Are you a degenerate too?

Not me. I've done enough gambling in this lifetime.

In the next, I want to go to heaven...so I can relax on the shore of a nice babbling brook...and play the harp with Boxcar and Overlay for all eternity.

How about we forget about who is correct on this subject and pray that all here have safe passage during this holiday weekend.

Since you're a gamblin' man, methinks the odds are highly in your favor that you'll make it to your destination just fine because the road to there is exceedingly broad and many are those who travel upon it, whereas the path to paradise is very narrow and few are those who find it.

I don't play any instruments but maybe Overlay does. But maybe I can sing for you...in which case you won't want to stay in heaven.

If I hadn't spelled it out for you, you surely would have thought that such an animal exists -- and then claimed that you have proven evolution.

Thank you for the introduction to El Cant de La Sibilla,Jordi Savall. Hope this moves you to wholeness, peace and presence as much as I with La Sibilla.

A fascinating new project by German cellist Anja Lechner
and Greek pianist Vassilis Tsabropoulos,
"Chants, Hymns and Dances", could be subtitled
"Music from the Crossroads of the World".

Do us all a favor and stop looking at everything through your intellectual blinders. Experience babies, dogs and cats with your innate compassion and empathy.

There is no need to explain.

The Good Samaritan
Are babies amoral at birth, and if so how can their immoral parents ever hope to turn them to the straight and narrow?

Cute video that proves your over thinking love

If babies come into the world with an amoral nature, when they grow up to become parents how did they manage to change their nature to a moral one?

Glad you liked the vid. Now...if only more of us had that kind of love.

I suppose it could be said that that vid proves that God loves unconditionally, since that dog adopted one that is not its own and manifested its affection toward the kitten. God, too, adopts, loves and cares for those who are very unlike Himself. Nature truly does reveal the glory of God, as scripture everywhere says.
