"I'm really pissed off that I got outed but yes I did it! I said it! So what?"Isn't that what they think/how they feel?HONESTY for once? Geez what a novel concept that is.

Since GOD is omnipresent omnipotent and omnicient doesn't that mean HE ALWAYS WAS and NEVER WASN'T? HE predated the bible did HE not or is everything absent and then magically there 4004B.C.?Is GOD limited to the timeframe of the bible? Is that all HE is? What is stated therein written by dozens of different men over many decades?Seriously?So nothing existed before the bible including GOD. I find that impossible to believe. You? less

Archaeologists date things back hundreds of thousands of years.The Bible, King James Version, has creation set about 4004 B.C.You can see the problem here. Reconciliation between the two is impossible to do.The religious community poohpoohs everything. If it's not in the Bible it isn't true. Funny. Many of them say the same thing about FOOTOO. If he says it it's true. If he doesn't it isn't. But I digress.That is why Science is mocked and rejected by so many Christians. Only the Bible and nothing else will show you the way. Now that is true for Christians. What about those with other beliefs including not believing in any supreme being?Who is right? Who isn't? A dichotomy to be resolved? How? less
I think there are some or maybe many people like that. Living a lie to get by. Living a lie to belong. Living a lie so they won't have to travel the path of life alone.How healthy is that?

I don't know. I'm not a genius or an inventor and not suffering as I think he did. I cannot really relate to him. But I am in awe of him.The first time anyone ever told me about Tesla? My first husband was an electrician. That was in 1958. He told me that Tesla was the REAL genius not Edison. At the time it had no meaning for me. It does now. Odd what we remember. less

The lifetime of Leonardo da VinciHe was, and I quoteA polymath painter, sculptor, architect, musician, scientist, mathemetician, engineer, inventor, anatomist, geologist, cartographer, botanist, writer. He was "into" mechanical engineering, optics, physics, pyrotecknics, zoology. Also civil engineering, chemistry, geology, geometrey, hydrodynamics. He was the inventor of or idea giver ofparachuteshelicoptersarmored fighting vehiclescalculatorsrudimentary theory of plate techtonicsThe double hull shipHe left sketchbooks of all his ideas, inventions, interests.Now we see him as a GENIUS. But during his time what did his "neighbors" think of him? Crackpot loony tune nutjob? I don't know. But I think probably so. These days rigid thinking is the way to go. No flexibility. Nothing stretches or expands. It is what it is because it is. That's it. Sigh. less

I not only had never heard his voice, I didn’t even know who he was, and furthermore, I had never even seen ESPN at all. At that time, I did not look into it any further to listen to him speak so that I could evaluate the comparison for myself. Not long after that, my interest in the topic waned and I soon forgot all about it.
Fast forward to today. Posting this question occurred to me, and as I was typing it, I remembered that I had such a story to tell. I checked online for ESPN broadcasts that featured Fred Hickman (it turns out he’s moved around to various networks), I listened to him and my opinion as to whether or not . . . you know, I think I’ll reserve announcing my impression for now. If any of you are already familiar with Hickman&rsqu... less
