Apple Sues Think Secret
Isaac Newton writes "Reuters is reporting that Apple Computer has sued website Think Secret for allegedly divulging trade secrets relating to its upcoming sub-$500 Mac desktop and office suite. The lawsuit is apparently giving legitimacy to the rumors."
An inexpensive PC and an office suite! All that is needed for Apple to rock the world. Now let's just hope they can manufacture enough of them to keep up with demand (that's always been their problem).
God is all of the following (not a complete list, but I've inserted some important missing pieces. For more characteristics, and how these fit together, consider reading Knowing God by J.I. Packer):
For a just and holy God it is possible to also be fully good and omnipotent and have the existence of things like natural disasters. I won't debate the point ad infinitum here as most are wont, unless people really want to disucuss it. I'd encourage you to do a little research on what 'just' and 'holy' mean and how those tie in with 'good' and 'omnipotent'.
Also, what's worse than holding "the fear of eternal damnation" over people (which I agree is an unfortunate approach) is to withold from people the hope of a meaningful existence (even the atheist Bertrand Russel said, "life without God is meaningless").

The Bible was compiled 300-400 years after Jesus by the Romans. Many texts were considered for the Bible. The ones we know today were selected and edited for the usefulness of their stories not the truthfulness of the tale. Having said that; watching thinking bags of dirt ask for proof of "God" is one of the most surreal and ironic experiences we as humans have to look forward to
