It really depends on whether or not the Bible is the literal word of God. I do not. So I'm incline to believe that the cosmos is billions of years old and not 6,000 years according a biblical timeline. Of course, some people believe I'm not a Christian because I don't put blind faith in the Bible.
And a few years later, Lt. Col. Oliver North would propose how the president could declare martial law in the U.S. if THE PEOPLE opposed the administration's policies. For a news junkie, it was fun era to live in.
FTFY - The only people who have a problem with Christmas are Christians, who feel left out of the celebrations. After all, the holidays are for them and not everyone else.
My father was staying at my apartment for Thanksgiving weekend in 2005 when we went to the Wal-Mart store in Mountain View, CA. We got there at 6:30AM, an hour after the store opened for Black Friday. Counted 16 police cars in the parking lot and about as many cops inside the store. A stampede and a riot broke out over a pair of HDTV that were on sale. Meanwhile, I picked up a crockpot for $5.
As a government I.T. worker with a security clearance, my background investigative file got stolen by the Chinese earlier. Now my certification records are stolen. What's next?
Americans are more likely to get killed by a gunman with an assault rifle and extra clips than a team of ISIS terrorists. What course of action would you suggest?
I didn't change anything. I've been hearing for years how the government hands out FREE iPhones like candy. When I press people on exactly how to get a FREE iPhone, they either shut up or point to the government program for a FREE cellphone. An ordinary cellphone is not in the same league as an iPhone.
Don't bother. People who screamed the loudest about societal moochers are the same people who can't explain how the system work. I'm still waiting for someone to tell me how to sign up for a free iPhone from the government.
That might suck for programming. I do I.T. support work and cleaning up other people's messes is big bucks. It's better to be known as the guy who cleaned up the mess and not the guy who made the mess.
I find it more interesting that some questioners will twist themselves into a pretzel to hide the fact that they want someone else to provide the answer to their homework problem.
One poster on a Python list complained that my email address (first and middle name initials, last name) didn't match my signature block (first name, last name). Never mind that he went by a nickname that has absolutely nothing to do with his matching email address and signature block.
I ended up re-subscribing to the list under a different email address. I'm surprised he didn't complain that I use a short variation of my first name.
If your question was like an obvious homework question, you deserve to have your Linux install wiped out. Some people just don't know how to ask meaningful questions.

Except that religion tends to make no goddamn sense to a rational mind and gets rejected on sheer logical grounds.
Not a problem for people who can hold two opposing ideas in their mind without going nuts. As a Christian, I believe in evolution.
Really? I've always thought wet streets came from God taking a piss.

I would reserve judgment and wait for more facts. It's call being open minded.
And ruin a brand new crockpot? Are you nuts?!
When will their War on Christians end?

Having a security clearance doesn't mean being in the security field.

You do know what an iPhone is? None of your links informs on where I can get an iPhone from the government.
P.S., The original "scam" got started underneath President Reagan.
P.P.S., You're welcome.

You are aware that it takes two to three years for a refugee to pass security screenings before being allowed into the country?

Only if you have "smart" devices that don't save their configuration info.
Put the TV and the everything connected on a power strip. Turn off the power strip to save power. Watch your energy bills drop.

"I have Requirement to build Python website. Provide info on how to write the Python. Please do the needful."
FTFY - Which, coincidently, was a question I read on the Python email list this morning.
One poster on a Python list complained that my email address (first and middle name initials, last name) didn't match my signature block (first name, last name). Never mind that he went by a nickname that has absolutely nothing to do with his matching email address and signature block. I ended up re-subscribing to the list under a different email address.

Can you tell me how to finish my homework assignment for Script Kiddie 101?
Or use a $600 CNC router to mill and drill a PCB.
