[wellstone_democrat]

[DanCa]

35. A bag of peanuts

Now i lay me down to sleep
a bag of peanuts at my feet
If I shall die before I wake
give them to my brother Jake.

[melody]

50. all right, you owe me a keyboard

I just spewed apple juice all over it.

[wellstone_democrat]

64. OK, when I get the one owed to me

by the NPR "car guys" who said that once and made me lose coffee all over my steering wheel and work clothes! :grin:

[WindRavenX]

2. JESUS IS COMING

...roll an extra fat one :smoke:

[me b zola]

:smoke:

[DanCa]

14. Jesus is alright with me - its some of his followers i can do with out.

[Swamp Rat]

3. HAHAHAHA!!!!!!!

:rofl:

[Az]

5. To quote Dr McCoy, I have found that good seldom triumphs over evil

unless good is very very good.

[kentuck]

7. Az, you are very, very good...

[FM Arouet666]

40. Oopsi, delete

[DanCa]

11. Or "What does god need a space ship for?"

[PsychoDad]

59. That's a great Dr Mc Coy Quote.

One of my favorites.

Peace.

[DanCa]

6. I now can't get springsteen's tenth avenues freeze out of my head.

You know the live in new york city version. What this board needs is a rock in roll exorcisim, a rock and roll baptisim......

[kentuck]

12. DanCa, you are the number one disciple....

Our bodies are just vessels.

[DanCa]

18. And mine is the Flying Dutchman :D Thanks though :D)

[kentuck]

22. You're cool, guy !

[Jara sang]

8. I don't believe in good & evil.

[kentuck]

13. Then you haven't been watching this White House....

They are as evil as we have seen.

[DanCa]

16. I wonder if gwb has changed his mind about global warming

or if he thinks god is just trying to liberate the water?

[kentuck]

20. How much more will they need to see ?

Before they believe?

[DoYouEverWonder]

57. Good and evil is a human invention

it's what we got for eating from the tree of knowledge. Self-awareness and free will can cause all kinds of problems when not handled properly.

[DemInDistress]

9. Jesus died 2,000 yrs.ago

and he didn't rise from the dead nor was he born from a virgin and the
earth was not created in 6 days and adam from clay nor eve from adam's
rib where they lived in the garden of eden,naked and happy until,the
snake tempted eve to eat the apple from the tree of knowledge and she
in turn tempted adam who ate the apple then discovered they were nude
and God cast them out to earn a living.

[kentuck]

15. How is that relevant?

Oh, you must be thinking of Sunday School and Jesus of Nazareth? It's much bigger than that....:)

[mestup]

17. Why didn't Joseph have to be a virgin? n/t

[DanCa]

19. It's the beard chicks dig the beard.

[FM Arouet666]

49. Nah, its the thorns, chicks dig the thorns. n/t

[Proud_Lefty]

39. Oh come on.

The real question is, how many virgins does it take to change a light bulb?

[Az]

27. Ya know I am not even convinced he existed

But I think the topic isn't exactly about whether he did or didn't. Nor is it about whether the man or god is returning.

Its about the ideas that turn up everyonce in a while in society that make things better for people. Its about these ideas being held dear by various people in society who stand up for them and champion them. Its about fighting the good fight for each other and with each other. Sometimes its best to look beyond the label being used.

[DanCa]

32. Look up in the sky is it a bird is it it plane is it him.

JK Az. I agree with you 100 percent. Just remember though. Jesus did create humour too. It helps in the never ending battle you just described. :hugs:

[charlie]

21. ...and going straight to Gitmo

if Gonzales can get his hands on him before Robertson has him assassinated.

[kentuck]

24. But he's invisible.....

except to a few... They cannot catch what they cannot see.

[DanCa]

25. I am thinking the poem by paul revere how does that go?

One lantern by land two if by sea if you voted for george w bush i am really pissed at thee?

[charlie]

26. Not if they put Oral Roberts on watch

Jesus appears bigger than Godzilla with his special fundie X-ray powers.

[WindRavenX]

28. JESUS CAME TOO SOON

...he needs Viagra :think:

[kentuck]

30. Everything begins with sex....

huh? :)

[Az]

31. Actually

Sex was a later development of evolution :D

[kentuck]

34. It was an "Intelligent Design"

I bet ! :)

[lonestarnot]

29. No man knows what hour.

Lots more to see yet. Wait and watch.

[DanCa]

33. The shadow knows what lurks in the hearts of men.

[bluedawg12]

42. no man knows what train. I hope he weras the same robe n/t

[kentuck]

36. At this moment, twelve different people have posted on this thread.

:)

[pacalo]

37. I've been praying. Seriously.

[McKenzie]

38. The teachings of the Nazarene Church

are a manifesto for decency, women's rights and democracy...I could go with what they promoted even though I'm not a Christian or a woman. Jesus was a follower of the Nazarene teachings; the term "Christian" only emerged at Antioch in 47 ad. Even the Koran calls the followers of Jesus "Nazara".

The teachings of the Nazarene Church represented a threat to the Pharisees and they eventually got their way. (significantly, women were regarded as equal in Nazarene society - the Roman church changed all that after The Council of Nicea) Seems history has always been a struggle between those who beleieve in compassion, equality and all the things DU'ers believe in and those who have a desire to control for their own ends. Nothing changes eh?

And let's stop bashing people who have faith but are not ramming it down other people's throats...please...

[FM Arouet666]

41. Sorry, Jesus is not coming.

He and I are sitting here watching a rerun of Star Trek, he just loves those Klingons always wishes daddy had made a few for earth, anyway, he has assured me that he will not be coming. Sends his regrets.

Hey, Jesbo get me another beer, the Klingons are attacking. Damn nice fella..........

:evilgrin:

[BeTheChange]

43. Well,

I believe that there will be a second coming, I also believe in the rapture.. What is happening in the world is a sign that we are in trouble, or atleast, at a pivotal time in history that requires deep introspection. Is this the last generation? I dont know.. I hope not... but, you don't need a weather man to know which way the wind blows.

But then I also remember that in the general scheme of things, there have been many many times that were way worse off then what we are living through.


See, I believe that man has the ability to come through at the final hour. We have free will to do whatever we want, we are not controlled by the strings of some meddling creator. If we could all get our heads out of our asses then Im sure we could turn this thing around.

[LeftyMom]

44. Somebody's been reading the Dr Bronner's bottle again...

[tyedyeto]

45. Where can I purchase tickets to this event?

:sarcasm:

[Ikonoklast]

46. Dude better bring the

pizza. Last time he was here he showed up empty handed, drank all the beer and then split with that hot Mary chick. Dude!

[FM Arouet666]

48. Fuck you

Jesus is mine, that Mary chick ain't getting a thing. I will spank his holy ass if he cheats again. :evilgrin:

[bridgit]

47. works for me...

When I die and they lay me to rest
Gonna go to the place that's the best
When I lay me down to die
Goin' up to the spirit in the sky
Goin' up to the spirit in the sky
That's where I'm gonna go when I die
When I die and they lay me to rest
Gonna go to the place that's the best

Prepare yourself you know it's a must
Gotta have a friend in Jesus
So you know that when you die
He's gonna recommend you
To the spirit in the sky
Gonna recommend you
To the spirit in the sky
That's where you're gonna go when you die
When you die and they lay you to rest
You're gonna go to the place that's the best

Never been a sinner I never sinned
I got a friend in Jesus
So you know that when I die
He's gonna set me up with
The spirit in the sky
Oh set me up with the spirit in the sky
That's where I'm gonna go when I die
When I die and they lay me to rest
I'm gonna go to the place that's the best
Go to the place that's the best

:headbang:

[BeTheChange]

51. I like these...

Last Train
by Arlo Guthrie

I want to hop on the last train in the station
Won't need to get yourself prepared
When you're on that last train to glory
You'll know you're reasonably there

Maybe you ain't walked on any highway
You've just been flyin' in the air
But if you're on that last train to glory
You'll know you've paid your fare

Maybe you've been Iying down in the jailhouse
Maybe you've been hungry and poor
Maybe your ticket on the last train to glory
Is the stranger whose been sleeping on your floor

I ain't a man of constant sorrow
I ain't seen trouble all day long
We are only passengers on the last train to glory
That will soon be long, long gone

I want to hop on the last train in the station
Won't need to get yourself prepared
When you're on the last train to glory
You'll know you're reasonably there

God Knows
Bob Dylan

God knows you ain't pretty,
God knows it's true.
God knows there ain't anybody
Ever gonna take the place of you.

God knows it's a struggle,
God knows it's a crime,
God knows there's gonna be no more water
But fire next time.

Bridge #1:
God didn't call it treason,
God didn't call it wrong,
It was supposed to last a season
But it's been so strong for so long.

God knows it's fragile,
God knows everything,
God knows it could snap apart right now
Just like putting scissors to a string.

Bridge #2:
God knows it's terrifying,
God sees it all unfold,
There's a million reasons for you to be crying
You been so bold and so cold.

God knows that when you see it,
God knows you've got to weep,
God knows the secrets of your heart,
He'll tell them to you when you're asleep.

God knows there's a river,
God knows how to make it flow,
God knows you ain't gonna be taking
Nothing with you when you go.

God knows there's a purpose,
God knows there's a chance,
God knows you can rise above the darkest hour
Of any circumstance.

God knows there's a heaven,
God knows it's out of sight,
God knows we can get all the way from here to there
Even if we've got to walk a million miles by candlelight.


Change my way of Thinking
Bob Dylan

Gonna change my way of thinking,
Make myself a different set of rules.
Gonna change my way of thinking,
Make myself a different set of rules.
Gonna put my good foot forward,
And stop being influenced by fools.

So much oppression,
Can't keep track of it no more.
So much oppression,
Can't keep track of it no more.
Sons becoming husbands to their mothers,
And old men turning young daughters into whores.

Stripes on your shoulders,
Stripes on your back and on your hands.
Stripes on your shoulders,
Stripes on your back and on your hands.
Swords piercing your side,
Blood and water flowing through the land.

Well don't know which one is worse,
Doing your own thing or just being cool.
Well don't know which one is worse,
Doing your own thing or just being cool.
You remember only about the brass ring,
You forget all about the golden rule.

You can mislead a man,
You can take ahold of his heart with your eyes.
You can mislead a man,
You can take ahold of his heart with your eyes.
But there's only one authority,
And that's the authority on high.

I got a God-fearing woman,
One I can easily afford.
I got a God-fearing woman,
One I can easily afford.
She can do the Georgia crawl,
She can walk in the spirit of the Lord.

Jesus said, "Be ready,
For you know not the hour in which I come."
Jesus said, "Be ready,
For you know not the hour in which I come."
He said, "He who is not for Me is against Me,"
Just so you know where He's coming from.

There's a kingdom called Heaven,
A place where there is no pain of birth.
There's a kingdom called Heaven,
A place where there is no pain of birth.
Well the Lord created it, mister,
About the same time He made the earth.

52. Was it time for the announcement?

I still get chronos and kairos mixed up.

And it's Christ that is returning but I do like how you put it. Not some dude coming back, but that energy arising through us.

In these chaotic times it seems all is going wrong, worse and worse and there is no hope.

But look at when you do deep cleaning, emptying closets, sorting out drawers. Or remodeling, even worse. A mess, dust, clutter, it looks horrible. If you'd never started seems like you'd be far ahead...
But bring the chaos to the surface is the only way to get it done.

The announcer was right. We're here at this time for a reason. Angels abound. When the Light shines the darkness recedes, it's natural.

And remember Apocalypse. doesn't mean the end of the world as th right declares. it comes from a Greek word meaning just what we've been longing for.. to uncover, lay open what has been veiled or covered up; to disclose (and so on). That might mean the end of the world as they want it, but it's the start of the world that can heal.

Christ is coming. Fear not! ..be yourselves.

[SheWhoMustBeObeyed]

53. And here he is.
