    Movie question for Muslims!

    I was reading a movie review book yesterday, and in it, it listed a movie called Mohammed: Messenger of God, released in 1977 and directed by Moustapha Akkad. What interested me was this sentence at the end of the review: "In accordance with the religion, Mohammad is never shown." Is that part...

    Orthodox information?

    One thing that's always puzzled me about Christianity is this. It has three branches, Roman Catholic, Protestant, and (Eastern) Orthodox, but Orthodox is rarely mentioned. Sometimes even I know more about the Orthodox than do the Christians I ask about them. Is there a good place here with info...

    Hey, Illinois voters!

    I was just wondering if anyone was planning on voting for Alan Keyes or not. If you're an Illinois voter, like myself, please record your position! If you're voting third party, I'd love to know which party and who's your candidate as well. Thanks!

    How can we disagree?

    I don't know if anyone else is seeing this, but I am seeing increased anger and resentment directed at those of us who oppose the US/UK action against Iraq. I saw just last Friday a sign saying I was worse than Saddam for protesting against this action which I believe to be morally wrong...

    Vegetarian Recipe

    A few warnings before I give this recipe. 1. I'm one of those annoying "season it till I think it's right" types, and I am therefore very bad at estimating amounts. 2. I'm not a vegetarian, but I was raised an ovo-lacto-vegetarian (eats milk and eggs), so if I give a veggie recipe it will...

    Just for my curiosity's sake...

    I have seen numerous posts over the past several days stating that anyone who is not agreeing with every word coming out of President Bush's mouth supported President Clinton, because they're liberals. Now, I'm about as liberal as they come, and I didn't support President Clinton. Neither did...

    Italian Chicken Breasts

    Most of my recipes aren't exact and measured out, so I apologize if I am making your life harder by not providing an exact number on most things here. Get two skinless boneless thawed chicken breasts and a frying pan which will fit both of them comfortably. Put some olive oil into the pan...

    God is a Turtle

    When I went to a Campus Crusade for Christ event in Florida, we all watched a missions video. The video had a man on there who had gone on a trip to Russia. Initially he relied on his translator to get the Christian message out, but one day he felt he'd learned enough Russian to get by and went...

    What are your reactions? (esp. U.S. residents)

    What do you think of Trent Lott's admission during Strom Thurmond's 100th birthday party that he wished Thurmond had won the presidency on a white supremacy platform, because then we wouldn't have all the problems we've had over the past 50 or so years? NPR's Tavis Smiley Show discussed it...

    Computer Haikus

    I think we've all been in situations like these haikus describe. A file that big? It might be very useful. But now it is gone. The Web site you seek cannot be located but endless others exist Chaos reigns within. Reflect, repent, and reboot. Order shall return. ABORTED effort...

    Question for the well-read here.

    Anyone read Icons of Evolution by Jonathan Wells? What are his credentials, and is his theory credible? I saw the book only yesterday and it isn't mine, but it looked pretty interesting.

    Prayers

    I understand I can request prayers here. This is a request for prayer from those who pray here. My husband knows a woman who is engaged in a child custody dispute with her now ex-husband. He has repeatedly violated court orders to not take her daughter out of state and not to restrict her...

    Question for Moderator(s)

    If a post has [wash my mouth] in it, does it mean someone posted something profane, and it has been edited? I presume no one would purposely post [wash my mouth] in most things they state here, but I could be wrong.
