    Do Good People Go To Hell?

    jawsmetroid, You are right, it is our job to preach the message in much the same way as Jesus did, and to live by His example. Was Jesus ever blunt, yes He was. You will find that Jesus was blunt with those who claimed to know everything, the lawmakers who looked to trick Him. He was blunt...

    Who runs an e-business here?

    (Did you have any education or training? Jan) I am self-taught since 1998, so my internet education and training have been mainly from doing and falling and then getting back up to do it again until I succeed. Working mainly with churches and not for profit organizations is more of a mission...

    Do Good People Go To Hell?

    I also said that I believe that he hurts and rejoices over His children, not that He is neutral towards us. Stating that Christians tend to view Him as a father and not just a God would lead one to believe that there are other gods out there to choose from. The Christian view, at least mine...

    Do Good People Go To Hell?

    (To R3quiem) When I first moved to Mexico, Spanish was not clear to me at all. Once I began to study Spanish and attempt to speak it, it became my second language and now I can speak it as well as English. I could never have done this without having people around me show me the way to speak...

    Ideas, etc.

    Everything you mentioned is absolutely 100% possible. In fact, if you have a handful of people willing to pitch in just a few minutes a day, you can manage to control the spam and everything else that might be considered a con. If you have access to mysql on your hosting provider, I would...

    Who runs an e-business here?

    I do hosting and web design as my ebusiness, along with my side hobby of organic gardening supplies. It's fun, but the hard part is kicking yourself in the butt like a real boss would when you don't get the job done like you should. If you can do that, and manage to keep yourself motivated...
