		<description>This is ALL TRUE ... I take this position while I&#039;m lay down in bed. 2 years ago I take my position and start taking my breath deep, at once a crystal white light came in. I was in awe  it stay with me for several seconds... since then my  contact with the Higher Realms comes like  strings of elektricity in my head.</description>

		<description>How do we explain to these people that a &#039;protective sheath&#039; of godliness doesn&#039;t protect against teen pregnancy? It&#039;s got to be polyurethane or latex.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;That middle graphic reminds me of an episode of “Rocko’s Modern Life.” He goes to the doctor and there is a chart where with wavy blue lines (good feeling) and jagged red ones (pain). The doctor says something like “there’s the problem, you just need some of those wavy blue lines!”&lt;/blockquote&gt;

		<description>Visited the site and clicked on the &quot;about us&quot;. Apparently being a &quot;His Holiness&quot; means you&#039;re holy enough to have your personal pronouns capitalized. 

See, I thought you had to be God to have that privilege. If it&#039;s just a matter of being a His Holiness...my parents will be happy to learn I&#039;m a Hindu again.</description>

		<description>&quot;Did you know that if you add another decimal place, 23.7% more people will be convinced by your BS statistics?&quot;

I literally laughed out loud at this, and at the rash of deaths in Christian preschools in the 80&#039;s--glad I survived that one!</description>

		<description>Anyway, shoudn&#039;t be there an upstream communication channel marked in the diagram, too? ;) (Telco student, sorry, couldn&#039;t resist.) OC, God could have known beforehand. But if God knew beforehand what you will pray about, then there&#039;s no point of praying if the request is reasonable and unselfish. Or is there, apart from some benefits of concentrating on the issue?</description>

		<description>I think &quot;Negative Density&quot; is the same as &quot;Dark Matter&quot;. We can&#039;t see it, we have no way to prove it exists (&lt;em&gt;other than mathematical calculations&lt;/em&gt;), but we have to presume that there&#039;s something there other than emptiness. Wait, which one was I talking about?</description>
