I'd comment with my take on the last two posts, but I fear someone will cry foul.

I apologize if you were offended by that comment, as my intention was not to offend. Merely to share a personal anecdote.

Jeru - that would prove to be a massive mess. That's why God's plan was for the PARENTS to teach their children. That is why I am homeschooled, thank God.
Swellick -
Have you ever regularly attended a school after, say, age 12? If not, I would advise to refrain from pointing out which curricula would be a "massive mess" and which wouldn't, especially without backing that up. It does not add credibility to your argument.
Secondly, I think that if you had attended a school, perhaps you would have been more open-minded than you come off in this thread.
Thirdly, this comment is not intended to offend: You sound like you are a few years my junior. A few years ago, I would have readily confessed to deeply devout views not unlike yours as well, and (thankfully) I've grown, changed and smartened up since then. Perhaps in several years your views will change to something other than a complete literal adherence to the Bible, and a complete rejection of all "theories of man".

Nobody can predict what's going to happen tomorrow, let alone in the distant future. This is all guesswork.

For the record, I don't believe in Creationism, and I think it should be taught alongside Evolutionism in schools. (Ideally in the higher grades, after at least a short background in Scientific Method). Let the children decide for themselves what they accept as truth.
IMHO teaching a scientific theory alongside something taken from an ancient book will do science a lot of good.

It really depends on the content of the pamphlet. There's a difference between "The Big Bang theory is wrong!" and "Ms. Doe is a heathen who will burn in heck".

Studying for the written test, which I will take in January.

Depending on traffic, it usually takes about 20 minutes to get from my house to school, or vice versa. On late afternoons, when traffic is light, it can take 10 minutes, and on Friday afternoons it took me 50 minutes once.

I need to talk to you about Hebrew though... we have some questions about word wrapping with text that is written from right to left vs. left to right. ... Oh and if you read the programmers meeting minutes from today that would further familiarize you with the dilemna that Gee presented.
I read the minutes & the transcript but didn't understand too much. I need a clarification of the question before I can answer. (Oh and Hebrew is written top right to bottom left
)So if you see me online sometime, please messege me.I'd rather have discussion this over the forums or e-mail; I can't promise to be online for extended periods this week.

Sooooo what's the verdict? (Ultimately this is a marketing question.)

Still no proof he's going to abuse it. I would rather think about where many funds go in other countries. Nobody raised voices when Mobutu put all Zaïre's money into his own pocket, most nations (like the US and Belgium) rather helped Mobutu (aka the african hitler) in exchange for more economical power and influence in his region.
AFAIK, Mobutu isn't around anymore - And Arafat is. Of course there are lots of personal and national interests involved in the media hooplah, but that's world politics for you - And it doesn't make the PA's corruption any more moral, or condoning it any less immoral.

*Wonders why the forum is necessary*

If Hebrew is enabled, I will be willing to translate the UI to Hebrew.
Keep in mind that since Hebrew is written from right to left, some screens may have to be flipped horizontally or otherwise modified

Either the Iberians or the Carthaginians, for my involvement in designing them

I love the skin, Jason. Good work, very clean.

It's a very common experience. I daresay a high percentage of secular and/or atheist people were once deeply religious; I'd expand but I fear to offend.
