Remember, there are a lot of Books in the Bible. Some of the older ones (Old Testament) have a lot of stuff about smiting and even killing or enslaving your enemies.
It all depends upon what part of the Bible the church you attend wants to focus on. There's as much legitimacy in focusing on God's Rightous Wrath as there is in focusing on Jesus Forgiving.
You have to take into account that the Old Testament is a subset of the Torah, mainly so the early christians could convert jews by tracing Jesus' family all the way back to God, among other things.
Much of what Jesus said contradicts the old testament, because Jesus was focusing on the meaning behind everything in the Torah. A lot of stuff that is in jewish law is basically laws for your own good - at least it was many centuries ago.
Unfortunately, the fundamentalist christians usually quote the parts of the Old Testament that involve "An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth."
The only reason Linux does not have that problem at this time is that there isn't a market for the spyware industry in the Linux world. The current Linux users are less likely to download those type of programs and more likely to ensure that the programs only do what they are supposed to. As soon as there is a noticeble increase in the average usage of Linux, the spyware will start to develop their expertise in that area as well.
Yeah, they don't have to realease spyware for linux to guess our browsing habits.
I hope these Atheist idiots cry out more and more because we're finally starting to see what these people really are. The more they bellow out, the more intelligent people will just shake their heads and move on with their lives. This will be the death-nell for Atheism and it's about time. It's time for these idiots to grow up and stop believing in Santa Claus, and the Easter Bunny and for them to STAY THE F*** OUT OF MY LIFE. I was one for tolerance. For letting people do what they wish and believe in what they wish in the privacy of their own homes. But now this minority...yes they're in a minority...of Atheist a**holes is now effecting my life, and in a very negative way.
See what ranting does for you.:P You sound just as reasonable as a really conservative christian talking about ID. You have no respect for the other sides beliefs.
This is perfect, we get to know where to mail letters describing in great detail how we think sony sucks.
Seriously, though, Snail-mail them, It will (hopefully) mean more to them. After all, a stamp costs 34 cents.
Imagine if everyone on slashdot mails them a letter...
Even when I'm on a desktop, I use a touchpad (see http://www.enablemart.com/productGroupDetail.aspx? store=10&dept=24&group=58). I tried trackballs for a while, but they're kinda cumbersome and they required too rigid a position - my hand still hurts. Touchpads allow you a relaxed enough position that you shouldn't start hurting.
Only problem is that if you are playing a game, your fingers get sweaty and it loses sensitivity...
Oh, and they don't squeak!

Looking permanently surprised is going to be a new fad! Get it while the going's good.
That's what they're doing. Why do you think their music is so bad?
