  1. Not one single Robocaller can get through my phone on Robocalling Scourge May Not Be Unstoppable After All (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    I have a way to stop all robocallers and scammers. Not one single Robocaller can get through my phone. I use Magicjack and Magicfeatures plugin and use priority callers only. If them callers are not in my contact list then they don't get to even ring my phone. It automatically hangs them up. I add necessary phone numbers into the contact list priority call list if I know they need to call me like a Pharmacy or Doctors office or friends and family. I notice on my computer screen many many scammers trying to call but cannot ever get through since they are not in my contact list. Its easy to get doctors to give you the number they use to call you so you can add them in the priority call list so they can get through. This way Robocallers are stopped in their tracks. Magicfeatures plugin cost me 19.95. It just works.

  2. The Proof has already been made that God exists on Science Cannot Prove the Existence of God · · Score: 1

    The proof God exists has already been made in front of many witnesses: ( Matthew 3:16,17) After being baptized, Jesus immediately came up from the water; and look! the heavens were opened up, and he saw God’s spirit descending like a dove and coming upon him. 17Look! Also, a voice from the heavens said: “This is my Son, the beloved, whom I have approved.” Scientists are not as smart as they make themselves out to be. They cannot even explain the Design in DNA or the intricate design in the Brain... A member of the French Academy of Sciences stated: “Natural order was not invented by the human mind or set up by certain perceptive powers. ... The existence of order presupposes the existence of organizing intelligence. Such intelligence can be none other than God’s.”—Dieu existe? Oui (Paris, 1979), Christian Chabanis, quoting Pierre-Paul Grassé, p. 94. Scientists have identified over 100 chemical elements. Their atomic structure displays an intricate mathematical interrelationship of the elements. The periodic table points to obvious design. Such amazing design could not possibly be accidental, a product of chance. Illustration: When we see a camera, a radio, or a computer, we readily acknowledge that it must have been produced by an intelligent designer. Would it be reasonable, then, to say that far more complex things—the eye, the ear, and the human brain—did not originate with an intelligent Designer? Design comes from a designer.... God doesn't exist... Or is that Barbers don't exist? A man went to a barbershop to have his hair cut and his beard trimmed. As the barber began to work, they began to have a good conversation. They talked about so many things and various subjects. When they eventually touched on the subject of God, the barber said: “I don’t believe that God exists.” “Why do you say that?” asked the customer. “Well, you just have to go out in the street to realize that God doesn’t exist. Tell me, if God exists, would there be so many sick people? Would there be abandoned children? If God existed, there would be neither suffering nor pain. I can’t imagine a loving a God who would allow all of these things.” The customer thought for a moment, but didn’t respond because he didn’t want to start an argument. The barber finished his job and the customer left the shop. Just after he left the barbershop, he saw a man in the street with long, stringy hair and an untrimmed beard. He looked dirty and unkempt. The customer turned back and entered the barbershop again and he said to the barber: “You know what? Barbers do not exist.” “How can you say that?” asked the surprised barber. “I am here, and I am a barber. And I just worked on you!” “No!” the customer exclaimed. “Barbers don’t exist because if they did, there would be no people with dirty long hair and untrimmed beards, like that man outside.” “Ah, but barbers DO exist! The problem is that some people don’t come to me.” “Exactly!” affirmed the customer. “The same thing is true of God.” If you don't believe in God because you cannot see him....Go to the edge of a cliff and jump off....You cannot see gravity so it must not exist.... Some scientists are just plain idiots...

    The best and most simpler solution to stop all registration bot spam is make your registration double optin.

  10. There is not any Evolution. Only Progression on Humans Evolving Faster Than Ever · · Score: 1

    All you evolutionists try to prove evolution but have not presented any solid evidence. And what it really is, you use the wrong word for what really happens. Humans progress by taking in more knowledge. Either way you look at it, a Human started as a Human and is still a Human. A monkey started as a Monkey and is still a Monkey. An idiot is still an idiot. Darwin thought that all life might be traced to a common ancestor. He imagined that the history of life on earth resembled a grand tree. Later, others believed that this “tree of life” started as a single trunk with the first simple cells. New species branched from the trunk and continued to divide into limbs, or families of plants and animals, and then into twigs, all the species within the families of plants and animals alive today. Is that really what happened? DARWIN’S TREE CHOPPED DOWN In recent years, scientists have been able to compare the genetic codes of dozens of different single-celled organisms as well as those of plants and animals. They assumed that such comparisons would confirm the branching “tree of life” proposed by Darwin. However, this has not been the case. What has the research uncovered? In 1999 biologist Malcolm S. Gordon wrote: “Life appears to have had many origins. The base of the universal tree of life appears not to have been a single root.” Is there evidence that all the major branches of life are connected to a single trunk, as Darwin believed? Gordon continues: “The traditional version of the theory of common descent apparently does not apply to kingdoms as presently recognized. It probably does not apply to many, if not all, phyla, and possibly also not to many classes within the phyla.”29 Recent research continues to contradict Darwin’s theory of common descent. For example, in 2009 an article in New Scientist magazine quoted evolutionary scientist Eric Bapteste as saying: “We have no evidence at all that the tree of life is a reality.”30 The same article quotes evolutionary biologist Michael Rose as saying: “The tree of life is being politely buried, we all know that. What’s less accepted is that our whole fundamental view of biology needs to change. Face it. Explain the complex design of your brain or your eye, or spinal cord. How about the universe? It is so precise you can pinpoint exactly where to land and when by using simple math. It is those uneducated who claim an evolution instead of the real and factual Progression of man just getting smarter by the knowledge he takes in. Facts are Facts. Only fossil evidence that was surfaced was fabricated by those uneducated men anyhow. Dave

Youtube is breaking it's own TOS by still allowing the video to be viewed. Bet the Federal Attorney Generals Office could show them their own TOS concerning the hate speech towards any religion. Youtube usually would take such a video down unless they SUPPORT THE ISLAMIC VIEWPOINTS OF WHAT WAS SPOKEN. Of course not too long from now all the false religion groups and leaders are going to reap the rewards from the TRUE GOD in his wrath against all wickedness. He would rather you all repented but he also knows alot of you arent even going to try. So, back to the dust you will all go. The word in the Bible called tormentor means Jailor. Tormented forever means jailed forever. So, tormented in Hell forever means Literally this: You will be jailed in the common grave of death forever. Hell means the grave of mankind in general. The Hebrew word is Sheol, Greek word is Hades. They both mean Grave not some fiery place. If Hell is the place of fire, explain this scripture: Revelation 20:14: 14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. First you cannot literally take a place and cast it into another place. And even if that was possible. what effect would fire have on fire?.......................NO EFFECT WHATSOEVER. This shows how misled many false religions have twisted the meaning of the word Hell for so many years. By what Jesus said about the rich man and Lazarus, did Jesus teach torment of the wicked after death? Is the account, at Luke 16:19-31, literal or merely an illustration of something else? The Jerusalem Bible, in a footnote, acknowledges that it is a “parable in story form without reference to any historical personage.” If taken literally, it would mean that those enjoying divine favor could all fit at the bosom of one man, Abraham; that the water on one’s fingertip would not be evaporated by the fire of Hades; that a mere drop of water would bring relief to one suffering there. Does that sound reasonable to you? If it were literal, it would conflict with other parts of the Bible. If the Bible were thus contradictory, would a lover of truth use it as a basis for his faith? But the Bible does not contradict itself. What does the parable mean? The “rich man” represented the Pharisees. (See verse 14.) The beggar Lazarus represented the common Jewish people who were despised by the Pharisees but who repented and became followers of Jesus. (See Luke 18:11; John 7:49; Matthew 21:31,32.) Their deaths were also symbolic, representing a change in circumstances. Thus, the formerly despised ones came into a position of divine favor, and the formerly seemingly favored ones were rejected by God, while being tormented by the judgment messages delivered by the ones whom they had despised.—Acts 5:33; 7:54. I appreciated commenting. And I appreciate shedding some light upon the darkness that has been spread out for so long a time.
