My mother is a catlover pur sang. She turned her backyard into a place where the neighborhood straycats can find shelter from the rain and cold, and some food to boot. She was freeing up extra space for the coming winter this afternoon. I know that if I were a straycat I'd be glad to have...

The world according to Marcel continues... 16/8/'03 Unfortunately having non-Christians post in the actual journaling section, is considered some kind of risk to the board's integrity or something, hense (most likely) it's location. I'm not even going to try and understand what spawned...

In a thread that got deleted before I could respond, Prayerwarrior asked me, why I choose to come to Christianforums even though it's obviously ment for Christians (with exception to the apologetics section perhaps), and I'm free to visit a multitude of other boards... I think I should adress...

I'm so happy, that I got to spend fourteen fantastic days with Amie here in Holland :), but sad to see her go :(, but also glad that she'll see her family at home again :) Will you please pray for a safe flight home for Amie; I'm sure she'll appreciate it, and I'll be sleeping a whole lot...

pick up your cat, dog, turtle, parrot, whatever... and let them have a go at the keyboard. Here's some profound wisdom, passed on from my cat Chewy, to you. il4s355555 Is that deep or what?

As an atheist, the only way to get something of value out of the Bible is by looking at the whole thing as symbolisms, metaphors and underlying messages. For instance, if I take God as a metaphor for the good in us, being created by God translates to: 'supposed to let the good in us prevail'...

Often people refer to atheists as people who believe there is no god, rather that 'don't believe there is a god'. Getting down to the nitty gritty distinguishing between the two may seem awfully nitpicky, but the first definition does imply an outlook on the world that signifcantly differs from...

... or perhaps why you don't use one. What compelled you to pick a specific bibleverse, famous quote, personal message? Mine both fall in the latter catagory. -The good in life is what you're doing it for. The bad in life reminds you why you're doing it. Life teaches you how.- That...

A certain Jason Young, oddly enough, started this as a journal thread; even titeling it "Do you believe evolution requires any faith?" questionmark and all. This is a place where people could actually answer the question, so I hope he doesn't mind me copying and pasting it. Unless he found it...

Amie is about to make some BIG lifechanging choices, and embark on a journy that's a little scary for her (time, money and emotion she doesn't want to spend in vain). I think she could use some extra support and prayers right now.

Who has been a major influence in your life? (Apart from Jesus) At the risk of sounding trite, I'd have to say Amie has affectd me more profoundly than any person I've ever known. Who have been a big inspiration to you? Parents? A college professor? A close friend?

She's a single mom, and the man she's in love with lives a continent and an ocean away. It's hard for her from time to time, and I'm sure she'd appreciate some prayers. (Ik hou van je lieve schat :hug: )

Congratulations on your birthday Amie. 32 already? Wow schat; you're growing so fast :)

"Real liife" Preacher's blogg's I don't know about you, but I think this guy's actually kinda cool.

With Christmas around the corner, I think it's a good thing to set aside differences, celebrate togetherness, and focus on how we're all alike in many significant ways, and little funny ways as well. Even though I'm an Atheist, I'm emidiately going to snatch away "We're all loved by...

Firstly, to the moderators of this forum. I hope I may be forgiven for breaking the "Christians-only" protocol. This isn't about me, or for me. Though, being an atheist, I personally don't believe in the power of prayer (besides the positive impact it might have on a...

Today on the news... ...In Venlo, the Netherlands two teenagers on moped scooters, speeding on the pavement in front of a supermarket, nearly knocked an old lady of her feet. When a young man approached the teenagers, and verbally reprimended them he was severely kicked and beaten by...

Okay here is where you can post segments of lyrics from your favorite lovesongs... ...lyrics that wouldn't have looked out of place in a gospelsong.   The thing I'm getting at, is that you should approach life in general with love, so a lyric from a lovesong, that's written with a...

anyone here ever had a Trappist? the trappist are an order of monks in Belgium and Holland, famous for the excelent ales they brew in their abbey's I'm enjoying a nice Westmalle tripple right now, though the Roachford is by far my favorite. :)

Regardless of my 'seculiar humanism' (man I dislike labels :(), I think I can safely say one shouldn't turn God into a lame three-letter excuse for devilish thoughts and deeds... ...but if you're not going to apply yourself to make a positive contribution to your environment, what kind of...
