  1. Every time I buy a new cd drive for my computer it goes out after a little while. Anyone have ideas of why this might be happening?

    The only thing I can think of is overheating. :)

  2. I have only read the Series a couple times all the way through, but I do read parts of it quite often. I also like to listen to it on cd's and tapes narrated by Rob Ingles.

    I listened to the whole book of The Return of the King in 2 days last week.

    I have only read the Hobbit a few times and don't read it as often. But I have listened to a couple versions of it on tape several times.

  3. You may not be anti-semetic, but you are obviously anti-american and anti-israel

    If you compare Israel with the other Middle East nations they look pretty good.

    Name one way Israel is worse than the Arab states.

    I do not think Israel is perfect, (far from it) but they do not deserve any special criticism.

  4. ?(

    Can one still be a Christian if-1. Listens to Rock and Heavy Metal?(

    Yeah. I do, and I am.

    2. Believes in some sort of extraterrestrial life?

    Yeah, never says in the Bible that earth has the only life.

    and for the 3rd one I would say yes too.

    To be a Christian all you have to do is confess that Jesus is Lord and believe that he was raised from the dead.

    And, for the record, IMHO believing in an unprovable supernatural deity will always require more faith, or as I sometimes cynically call it, "kidding oneself", than belief in the laws of logic & probability.

    Most things can't be proven. and believing in God doesn't mean you throw the laws of logic and probability to the wind. It means there is an entity which put those laws into place.

  5. I'm working on a piece now, It'll be done soon.

    I am mostly a pencil artist, but I also paint watercolor landscapes and do some acrylic painting. And recently I started working with Photoshop, that is what I am doing now. I take a drawing I did and completly go over it in photoshop, basicly a digital painting.

    most of my concept art will be photoshop and pencil.

  6. I will back up Cougar with some facts.

    Historical documents are judged by how many copies how close together the copies were made, and how close to the original the copies were made.

    Work.........When Written.........Earliest Copy......Time Lapse......# Of Copies

    Herodotus.......488-428 B.C..........A.D. 900.............1,300 years.............8

    Thucydides......c. 460-400 B.C......c. A.D. 900..........1,300 years.............8

    Tacitus............A.D. 100...............1100....................1,000 years...........20

    Caesar's Gaelic War...58-50 B.C....A.D. 900.............950 years..............9-10

    Livy's Roman History...59.B.C.-A.D...17 A.D. 900......900 years..............20

    New Testament.....A.D. 40-100.......A.D. 130.............30-310 years.....5000+ Greek

    .........................................(full manuscripts A.D. 350)....................10,000 Latin

    ....................................................................................................9,300 others

    This is just for the New Testament portion of the Bible. But one thing I might add is that of the Old Testament more and more of it can be validated.

    The Old Testament talked about the Hittites as a powerful nation. It was only in 1906 The royal archives were discovered at Bogasköy in Turkey.
