Looks like I'll be skipping breakfast as I don't have time to eat.

Ah ok. All the best to you.

I see that you are a fellow Microsoft Dynamics AX developer. I remember when I started developing in version 3 in 2006 (known back then as Axapta) that the UI forms were generated for you. It made life a bit easier. The IntelliSence back then was almost non-existent, but that has improved at least. Do you only do AX development in your spare time?

Agreed. The media just doesn't always make sense to me.

I was scratching my head on this as well. There's an article that said a tiger at a zoo in USA got it from it's handler. Now there are cats and a dog (in China) that's been found positive with it, but the experts say that our pets (which are animals) can't transfer it to us. Now, I don't understand how we got it from an animal then in the first place.

Now that caught me by surprise :-\

I don't want to argue. I don't understand why people think that there isn't a God. The senses is something that we can't always trust. You can go blind and become deaf. Senses can also be fooled. Another CP member said that we just exist, that we evolved from animals and that we don't have a purpose. How is it possible for us to just exist? Why is the human form the last form that we evolved into. If we're evolving, then we should be evolving into something different, it's been thousands of years, and we're still in this form. Now, if we don't have a purpose, why are we living then? Why do we want to live? I look at the students that are protesting because the world is not doing enough about global warming. They want a future... they want to live. What's driving them to want to live? If we exist without any purpose, then we need to tell our children that. But I can only imagine what that will do. We'll have people that are depressed and the suicide rate will shoot through the roof. How does a plant live? I look at the trees, it's autumn here and the leaves are starting to fall off because the life of it is going into the ground before winter, but it's still hot. What's telling those trees to do that? If it didn't, the tree would die. The answers that science have doesn't always seem right to me. Again, I don't want to argue because it won't help and I'm not better than you or anyone else.

I don't see how that explains the difference in our personalities. I have a lot of patience compared to my brother who has less patience than what I do. I don't work myself up to have more patience. I was born with it. Where my brother is very outspoken, I'm not. There are things about us that are the same, but still our personalities differ. To me, it is something other than our brains that makes us unique.

Shall we say the same then about other things in life? Should everything be declared by one of our five senses for it to actually exist? Think of the mind (not the brain now). We can't see, feel, hear, smell or taste our mind. Yet, you can loose your mind and sit in a mental institute of some sort. What gives us our personality that makes us different one from another? Is it our brain or our heart?

There's no proven fact that we evolved from animals. The scientists are still trying to prove it, but I don't believe they will be able to do it. We're getting sick because of the bodies that we are in, not because we're not praying enough. Adam and Eve didn't eat apples that made them realize that they're naked. You won't find anywhere in the Bible where it says that they ate apples. It was because of sex. If you look at one of the definitions of fruit, you'll see that offspring is listed there. But Satan got to Eve first through the serpent. The Bible says that the serpent was the most subtil of all the beasts. It was a beast that walked upright like a man, closest animal to man. The only animal whose seed could mix with ours. In Genesis chapter 3 verse 15 it says that God will put enmity between the serpent and the woman and between the serpent's seed and the woman's seed. The serpent had a seed (which was Cain). God also cursed the serpent and changed its body into what we now know it as a reptile. The problem with denominational preachers are that they get so filled greeds and dogmas in the seminaries, that God can't use them. I understand why people don't want religion, and it's because they're not being told the truth. I'm not trying to be arrogant. Just trying to say what I know.

HIV and sickness is here because of sin (which is unbelieve). If we evolved from some animal, then when can we expect the next lot of people to evolve from animals. We should also be able to have a blood transfusion from animals. But you can't because it won't work, as the life in the blood is different. Yeah I know life is hard and I'm not saying that I don't want to live. But I can't accept that we just exist with no purpose, because it doesn't make sense. Why did we decide that we have to work, and stress ourselves out about paying bills? Now all the economies are not looking to good because somewhere someone is not doing there work all that well, but in the end it won't be good for all of us. If we just exist, then you can also say that the pc, laptop, mobile phone or whatever device you are using to browse to this site, just exists (makes just as much sense). But it didn't just exist, it was created for a purpose. I'm not trying to sell religion. Religion is a covering. Adam created a "religion" by covering himself with an apron made with fig leaves and God rejected it. That's why there are people that call themselves Christians, but the life they live tells you that they're not. Now, I'm not saying that I'm better than anyone. I just had to say that I'll be one of those who'll disappear, because of what I know and believe, which is the truth.

What is the answer then to questions like, why are we here and what is our purpose? Is life basically about being born, go to school, then to college or university (if you can afford to), work and then retire at an old age (also if you can), and then die? Why be born then in the first place?

Glad we have proof in what we believe.

Amen. I'll be one of those to disappear.

I think it's this post that you're looking for. Scroll all the way down and you'll see the text you gave.

Well, you can count another one :-). I own a Lumia 650.

Steven Hawkings said "When your antimatter meets up with you matter, you'll disappear". I'm glad that when my Theophany comes, I'll be in Glory.
