[Rom 8:1 KJV] [There is] therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. [Rom 8:2 KJV] For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. [Rom 8:3 KJV] For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: [Rom 8:4 KJV] That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. [Rom 8:5 KJV] For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. [Rom 8:6 KJV] For to be carnally minded [is] death; but to be spiritually minded [is] life and peace. [Rom 8:7 KJV] Because the carnal mind [is] enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. [Rom 8:8 KJV] So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God. [Rom 8:9 KJV] But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. [Rom 8:10 KJV] And if Christ [be] in you, the body [is] dead because of sin; but the Spirit [is] life because of righteousness. [Rom 8:11 KJV] But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. [Rom 8:12 KJV] Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. [Rom 8:13 KJV] For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. [Rom 8:14 KJV] For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. [Rom 8:15 KJV] For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. [Rom 8:16 KJV] The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: [Rom 8:17 KJV] And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with [him], that we may be also glorified together. [Rom 8:18 KJV] For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time [are] not worthy [to be compared] with the glory which shall be revealed in us. [Rom 8:19 KJV] For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God. [Rom 8:20 KJV] For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected [the same] in hope, [Rom 8:21 KJV] Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. [Rom 8:22 KJV] For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. [Rom 8:23 KJV] And not only [they], but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, [to wit], the redemption of our body. [Rom 8:24 KJV] For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? [Rom 8:25 KJV] But if we hope for that we see not, [then] do we with patience wait for [it]. [Rom 8:26 KJV] Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. [Rom 8:27 KJV] And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what [is] the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to [the will of] God. [Rom 8

I'd LOVE to see some of you realize that there are things going on with our universe that science will just never explain. "The wisdom of men is foolishness to God, and the wisdom of God is foolishness to men."
Of course, this will be down-modded swiftly by the "Science is my God" types... they're usually not open to discussions counter to their world-view, and will stop others from considering such evidence. My God says "Come, let us reason together..." I like His ways....
... why did the random spontaneous generation of "life" apparently only occur 1 time in the history of the known universe. DNA analysis seems to indicate a common genesis for all known Terran life forms, why has there been no discovery of evidence for another bio-genesis event here on Earth? Is the known RNA/DNA based life the only possible form of life?

I repair ancient Mazak CNC controls and other industrial controls. All the software is DOS/Win3.1 era stuff. No one wants to bite the bullet for new CNC systems because they can't find the mechanical quality to compare at a reasonable price. Unfortunately, there's probably not a single piece of electronics for these systems left in the world that hasn't already been through one repair cycle. Most of the PCB's I see have been patched, doctored, and abused to near death, but they keep coming. Mazak has quit all support for these dinosaurs, but they're still sitting on most of the schematics, source code, etc. My boss would love to see a modern OS with good support for his ancient software packages that all the original vendors have walked away from supporting, and won't release anything for others to work with.
If Trump wants to impress me, he'll get around to doing something to clean up the copyright/patent fiasco that is killing so many smaller players like us.
You're absolutely backwards AC. I don't care what goofy assed naming convention or garish boot/login splash is used as long as the system is stable, fast, configurable, and suited to my needs. Likewise, I don't care how noble and "professional" the name or logo appears if I've got to reboot lock-ups, schedule coffee breaks for wait periods, and only get to do what the OS's developer decided I needed to do my work.
First, if you think this release is relevant only to activities outside the US you are naive, at best. Second, if you DID know this kind of thing was going on, and weren't making all the noise you could to combat this infringement, you deserve the tyranny that rules you, and are also responsible for its power over others.
