I don't get Christianity because.
" No it's not. Because your statement is simply incorrect. Faith is belief without proof. It's not believing in something despite it being incorrect." It's not just believing without proof, it's believing the fantastic and the 'impossible' without proof. "Faith must trample under foot all reason sense and understanding" ~ Martin Luther.

"^ One can only talk like that if he believes there's no afterlife. Claiming "accepting" or "knowing" it is hypocrisy " That doesen't follow, you are reversing the burden of evidence. A highly unlikely postulate has been posited, human beings have immortal souls and when they die they are magically transferred to an afterlife, for which not a shred of evidence has been presented. This is entirely akin to the statement 2+2 = 5, unless some plausible proof can be presented as to why this should be the case, it remains beyond the realm of logic.

"How can you believe that when you die, you sieze to exit? Entirely, no afterlife, no consciousness, no anything. Thinking of death must leave you with a really hollow feeling." Faith is asking an intelligent person to accept that 2+2 = 5. If he does this he will live a fuller spirtual life and will not be haunted by the gloom of his own inevitable destruction. Some people however, can't accept the 5 whether they will be better off for it or not.

Are you going to get Vista?
"Games on Linux: MS - for all of the criticisms - continues to offer the most integrated cross-spectrum stable OS for hardware. Apple pales and Linux stutters in this regard .." Really, I heard the Unreal Tournament series on linux servers ran smoother, unfortunately not a single other game comes to mind that I could get for it. If the game choices were there I wouldn't mind the hassle of getting Linux to accept all my hardware, lesser of two evils. "The machine I am writing this on has been on for 93 days without a crash or a restart. It's Windows XP Pro SP2 Swedish." Yeah, I love my electric bill too.

What does that mean in the common tounge ? Anyway i'm not gonna bother upgrading unless it's inescapable. Why don't more games come out on Linux, lazy coders.

If 100 people needs to die to save 100000 people..
I would think it would be more than 1:1 if you factor in the whole of the tax beuocracy which is not exactly cheap to maintain.

Handball Championship Germany 2007
The biggest channel here has a sports director that used to play handball, so now every transmitted game is handball. It's not very interesting to watch though, like basketball everything happens too fast to appreciate the tactical elements. At least women's handball has bouncy ****.

Inside the case it's nice and neat with little plastic wrappers to keep everything in place. Outside it's an enormous birdsnest of cables stuffed behind the computer.

Human sacrifice: Central teaching of Christianity?
" You are confusing the historical Jesus with the religious one." No. Jesus was crucified by the Romans for political reasons whether you are religious or not.

The greater good seems like a practical rather than moral consideration to me. You need to put an individual in a position to compromise his belief system in order to have a moral dilemma.
