I've been to Welbourne perhaps 8 or 9 times now with my dogs. The inn has been in the same family for 240 years! You can't find that kind of commitment and dedication to a bed and breakfast anywhere else. The stewardship of this property has been a family concern since before the USA existed. And the inn reflects that family connection with its relaxed and rustic elegance. Many who visit here become regulars, not only because it's a great value, but also because Nat and Sherry radiate the comfort of the family sensibility. Also, over time you get to hear the stories, invoking the spirit, importance and heart of this historic home.
Other inns treat you like a guest. At Welbourne, you're welcomed into Nat and Sherry's home and extended family. There's a subtle difference between the two, but it's germinal to why your soul gets called back to Welbourne time after time. While most B&Bs serve breakfast, Welbourne also serves cocktails each night where other property residents and neighborhood friends gather to meet guests. And, adding to the history and stewardship of the home, breakfast is prepared by two generations of ladies whose connection to the property goes back into their family as well. This isn't a situation where someone has excitedly purchased a property to become an innkeeper. The connection goes WAY deeper at Welbourne and it's felt and seen in every detail. This is no sterile, perfect environment decorated to look authentic. It's an authentic, lived in family home.
Rounding out the Welbourne experience is the extensive property. Over 500 acres of horse-filled pasture leads to a wide creek about a mile away, still on the property. On any given weekend, there will be 8 or 9 resident dogs roaming the property, all of whom are friendly. My dogs ADORE this place, not just for the pack camaraderie, but also because they get to roam free and just be a dog here. In fact, that's highly encouraged by the innkeepers. As a dog lover, that's an important part of the experience for me.
Welbourne is perfect for a romantic getaway, a family gathering, a wedding, a spiritual retreat or just a getaway from city life. The silence and starry skies here feed the soul. If you don't love dogs, don't come. But if dogs make you smile, so will Welbourne.

QUIP: Love the flavor of a Jalapeño – so long as it's not too hot – but cutting them always manages to have me getting some in my eyes or nose, which makes both burn, burn, burn!
I needed to find a way to control both so that I could enjoy that jalapeño without it harming any of my senses!
TIP: It is possible to disarm that jalapeño so you can enjoy it fully.
I have found that wearing rubber gloves is the most important defense in keeping the burning juices off your hands, which is how it ends up in your eyes and nose, etc.
Being careful to wash everything with lots of soap and water while still wearing the gloves is also key. This kills two birds with one stone because the gloves are washed at the same time too. For this reason, I use a plastic or glass cutting board, as they are not as porous as a wooden board.
There are two easy ways to lower the heat in that Jalapeño. The first is to remove the seeds and the second is to remove the ribs inside the pepper. These areas contain the most heat. Likewise, if you want that pepper as hot as it can be, leave them in!

The problem with the human brain is that it is built for a primitive era that does not exist anymore. In modern times we have to use brains that are geared toward survival and reproduction in a complex workplace environment.
It is no surprise that when we are faced with problems in a fast-paced modern workplace environment, we tend to go back to our default thinking and behavioural rules that got us out of trouble thousands of years ago, says Dr Lee Newman, a behavioural science expert at IE University in Spain.
This biased and 'dangerous' thinking can, over time, harm one's business and career.

The warranty on my car expired earlier this year and I am looking for a good independent repair shop in the South Bay (Sunnyvale/Mountain View/San Jose) to do regular service/maintenance.
Where do you experienced owners take your bimmers for service? What's the typical hourly labor rate?
Thank you for sharing any info.

It gets better: If you have an Apple AirPort Base Station (Extreme, Express, or Time Capsule) the IOGear cable can be used to connect your printer to your wireless network. Plug it into the base station's USB port and your printer will magically appear in OS X's Print dialog under "Nearby Printers". For OS X versions earlier than 10.6 is will appear under Bonjour Printers.
With the release of Snow Leopard, Apple eliminated support for Appletalk. Fortunately my Appletalk printers also have parallel ports, so by using this cable I won't have to replace perfectly good printers when I upgrade to OS X 10.6.
(Update: I tried it with a new iMac running OS X 10.6.8. Works fine, including connecting using the Airport Express USB port.)
Just remember this cable is for printing only. The print function of multifunction printers ought to work but other functions such as scanning probably won't.
After that I did a test print and it worked! Bottom line is that the device does work as a plug-and-play for Windows 7. It should also work on Vista. FYI, the driver CD-ROM is of no value for Vista/Windows 7. IOGEAR could have avoided a call if they had properly documented this. Their website has no info on the issue.
I shut down the Mac completely. After power up, I was able to send 2 jobs to the printer without having to pull the cable. I tried another job later and it was back to only putting it in the queue, but not printing.
I called IOGear tech support. They said the product isn't for Macs and wouldn't provide any support.
Although others have reported success here, I can't say it works flawlessly for me. I'd love to know if I'm overlooking something to get it working as well as it has for others.
9/18/11 Update:
I think I've found what I was overlooking: I had to explicitly set the driver. It was already on the Mac, just needed to be set manually. On Snow Leopard (10.6.x), from the Print & Fax panel in System Preferences, choose the printer and hit the "Options & Supplies' button. Then, on the Driver tab, hit the Print Using drop-down and select "HP LaserJet 5MP - Gutenprint v5.2.3" .
When I received the shipment, I connected the cable to the printer and to my laptop (running Windows 7 Professional). I then turned on power. Next, the HP LaserJet 5P/5MP Postscript printer driver was installed automatically on my laptop. The printer was ready for use. I have been using the 5MP for several days now and things are working fine as before, thanks for this little cable.
Reuse - Reduce - Recycle - Revive.
On shipping - This item was sold by Amazon with Free Standard Shipping (3-5 days). It only took less than 1.5 days for me to receive the shipment by standard shipping (I placed order at 8:39am and received the shipment 12:06pm the next day). I live in Atlanta so the shipping time is probably shorter than usual.

We call this toy our baby leg press machine! Any toy / seat / swing, etc when it comes down to it, is always going to be hit or miss with your child. It can have all the features in the world and sometimes your little one just won't like it. With this product, my 10 week old daughter seems okay with it. She likes to kick when lying in her crib so we liked the idea of this bouncy seat. When she's in this she can kick and move her self, but hasn't really learned (or hasn't developed the strength yet) to really launch the sled backwards and activate the lights and sound. It was easy to put together, I really like the music (both the fast beat session and the soothing tunes). I also like the 2 settings for the vibration. The cushion is very soft and the colors are true to what you see on the computer. The toys attached at the foot pad are quite lame, I don't like the way they look (which you can see here) but I excpected more movement out of them when the footpad is kicked - but their mounting spring is way too tight (they don't move at all) For those who say this isn't for a shorter baby, I disagree. Just scoot your baby closer to the footpad - you can adjust the straps and make them longer. Or, you can put a book on the footpad for your baby to kick. for reference, my daughter was 9 weeks old in this picture, 10+ pounds and 22" long. All in all, the product is good, but it is pricey. Definitely go for the site to store shipping or wait for 97 cent shipping. You're taking a somewhat expensive risk if your child will like it but like I said, you do that with any toy you buy your kids - sometimes they just want to play with the box it came in :-)
I got this at my baby shower and was going to return it. I'm glad I didn't. My child is four months now and she has loved it ftom the beginning. I dance infront of it and she pushes off and cracks herself up.
before I bought this I read reviews on it the only thing bad I saw was that some kids werent tall enough for it, & this is the problem I ran itno, my daughter is 12 weeks old, and about 22" she can reach where to put her feet & can push it but she barely moves & she gets bored. I would keep it because I know she will grow, but for the price and the fact that she can sit up with support now & will be able to sit up even better as time goes on, I am going to be returning it. It is worth a try though!
My daugher doesn't want anything to do with it. She's only been content in it twice for a minute or two. She likes hammocked chairs vs hard bottomed. The back is hammocked but baby's bottom sits on hard plastic with no padding under the cloth. The few times she kicked her feet she didn't make the kick plate vibrate enough to set it off. The sensor doesn't seem very sensitive. I think to really enjoy this product you would need a baby who really likes to kick with thier legs. My daughter is more of a social baby, I think my son would have loved this though. I think it might have had more appeal to my daughter if it had a toy bar but it doesn't. I'm hoping that maybe she still needs to grow into it, and that there will be a point in her development that she'll enjoy it and we'll get some use out of it. She's three months now.
I thought this was going to be a great product but for starters my son had trouble reaching the foot pad, he is almost 25"s and 6 months. There really wasnt much to do other than look at the flashing lights at the bottom, no dangling toys, etc... He also seemed squeezed in at the top of the bouncer, there didnt seem to be enough shoulder room. We plan to return it. Its a good idea but needs some tweaking to make it more entertaining and fit a larger range of children.
We loooove the Kickin Coaster!! My son is 3 months old and he absolutely ADORES playing in this! He laughs and kicks and gets a great workout too. His little legs are sooo strong since using this. He's always been a kicker so we figured this would be perfect for him. I love that there are two volume settings, two song type settings and two vibration speeds. It was super easy to put together and super easy to operate. I have to put him in the seat slid down alittle on his bum because his legs are alittle short but it doesn't matter because I can still buckle him in safely. He can jump in it and push the seat all the way up now. It's the best toy ever!!! HIGHLY recommended! :)
I bought this because it seemed like something my son would like cus he is constantly kicking (he is four months old). when he was first put in the coaster he really didnt do anything, nd he didnt seem to like it. eventucally he warmed up to it (after a few days) nd he enjoys it, but he will only be happy in it for about 15-20min. the one thing is that i dont have D batteries so the vibrating part isnt working(he likes vibrating things). overall, i do really like it, he likes the setting where the music only goes off when he kicks it, but dont be discouraged if your baby doesnt like it at first.
I was really excited to try this product. My 4 month old is VERY active/kicky. I had read reviews on other sites that said their babies were to short for this and couldn't reach the foot board to push off. My daughter is very big/long/heavy for her age, so I didn't even think we would have the same problem. This doesn't advertise a minimum or maximum length, only a weight limit of 25 lbs. (She is 26.5 inches long and weighs 22 lbs.) We set it up and put her in it, and she could hardly reach the bottom either! So she can hardly even push off with her toes. We scooted her down to the very edge of the seat, which makes the harness/straps have to stretch to the limit just to buckle around her. This allows her to be able to reach so she can push off, which she absolutely LOVES to do. The only other complaint would be, this is supposed to play music and light up as a reward when they push off. It is not sensitive enough or something, because now that she can finally reach and is all excited about kicking off the platform, the thing hardly ever goes off. Even when my husband or I manually raise and lower the seat it usually doesn't react. I think this was a great idea for a product, and I won't be returning it due to the fact that my child loves to kick in it. I just think it could use a few modifications before I gave it 5 stars. I would recommend it to other parents of babies that love to kick, but if your baby is short or small, I probably wouldn't waste your money, cause they won't be able to reach to make it work...
We sought this product after noticing our baby loved to kick off our legs and slide up the changing table. The product was easy to set up and our baby absolutely loves it. Although like all toys he only enjoys them for a couple minutes at a time and like all babies wants Mom and Dad there with him while he plays. This toy is great fun for us too! He looks so cute playing and we gain smiles and giggles from our little one.
Got this for my baby when he was 10 weeks old. It was the perfect time. He started kicking himself up on it the first time. He smiles at the lights and music. The only thing I wish it had was a mobile or something above him to look at. Other than that it is great. He seems very comfortable in it, and loves to kick and straighten his legs. It was easy to assemble, and seems very sturdy and durable.
We got this for our 3 month-old grandson and he loves it. He hasn't quite caught on to what makes the lights go on but he loves pushing himself back and sliding forward. It's really good exercise. The gym was assembled in about a minute although it took another few minutes to locate a small cross-tip screwdriver to open the battery cover.
but the plastic is cheap,low quality...and it doesnt play the music everytime baby kicks even if you set it that way,which makes it hard for my 3 month old...he will not learn cause and effect with this like i had hoped
This seat is really fun. Our son just loves it. At 2 months, he prefers just to sit in it without all the music, lights & vibrations, but he'll probably grow into all of that... We would get this again, definitely.
This product is consumer rated really well, but our little girl wasnt thrilled with it. Maybe she was too young, but she never seemed particularly comfortable in the seat and we returned it after about 10 days.
My daughter loves her kickin coaster. She is almost too short for it, but she can still use it, and she will be able to for a while. I love that her legs get exercise when she is laying down.
my two month old loves to kick her feet and can already slide herself up on it. I love the fact my daughter has something besides laying on her back or tummy.
My two month old grandbaby loves this thing. She pushes and keeps occupied for long periods of time.
My 4 month old loves this toy....He kicks all the time and I knew he would love this.....
My 3 Month old is a bit intimidated and the music/light variety isnt great

Brave New World
Brave new world: All citizens are agents of the state, charged with keeping watch on every other citizen and reporting activities detrimental to good order. Unorthodoxy is suspicious.
Remember when that used to be considered a bad thing?
Look, we don't want to overstate the situation here, but we've heard about the old U.S.S.R., and we can't help but be taken a little bit aback by how readily a Dallas City Council committee this week embraced the police department's new "iWatch Dallas," a "virtual crime watch" that allows the citizenry to anonymously type in tips of suspect behavior from computers and cell phones.
Not sure if DPD is trying to make this sound like a dystopian novel, but at a briefing on the program held Monday, the coppers sure had some fantastic iWatch terminology: Information goes through a "Fusion Center" once tips come in from SAR (private sector Suspicious Activity Reporting). But before you check out of the real world and into that bunker in the yard, Deputy Chief Brian Harvey assures that racial and ethnic profiling will be minimized because of the Fusion Center, and also because of an online focus group that'll be used to evaluate the program. Harvey says DPD has been in touch with civil liberties groups in trying to ensure nobody's liberties get uncivilly taken away.

Focus group marketing meets the police state meets government bureaucracy. How do you improve three things that, each on their own, produce miserable results? You combine them, and create a cell phone app. It's called Paranoia 2.0.
Says the DPD, "iWatch Dallas focuses on criminal behavior and criminal enterprises that could also indicate a nexus to terrorist activities."
As one local blogger pointed out in a post on the program's homeland-security aspects, iWatch's definition of suspicious behavior casts a pretty broad net. Paying for anything with cash is hinky. Devoted hobbyist? That model train builder may, in fact, be an Al Qaeda agent. You say you're a tourist and want to see the local sites? Oh, we have your number, Bin Laden Boy. (Actually, that last one makes a certain amount of sense, considering this is Dallas.)
It would sound so creepy and threatening if it weren't for the fact that this program will depend on the risible combo of complex Internet and cell phone technology with police and city bureaucracy. Our future is safe from the intrusion of Big Brother because, and we hate to be unkind, Big Brother is kind of, um, dim.
At least for now.

Retail sales are .08%. That number is well below the factors involved in coming up with that figure and hardly something to be hooting about.
Maybe of the 5,000 companies they generally ask for input on these figures, a gun retailer replied, for gun sales are up 40%. That alone is enough to get the .08% increase, but hardly a barometer to things looking up.
Auto sales up, but that's due to Toyota's resurgence, and at the expense of GM and Ford.
Jobs increases: Mostly seasonal and low-paying. While the unemployment rate has dropped, long-term unemployment remains high and 23.5 million Americans are either out of work or underemployed.
If you choose to look at fuzzy math I suppose the economy looks ... off life support, but far from the hope & change figures Obama promised in 2008.
Sorry, Blue ... part-time jobs and Toyota's success aren't enough to make Obama's performance acceptable. But keep looking on the bright, delusional side :)
#22 May 6, 2012
Sorry Diggs, perhaps you should study your source closer.....Automotive group head states, "We are in a pronounced recovery now"....also that Ford outsold Toyota by alot, and GM also outsold Toyota by a bit.....i know also that annual sales, last year and so far, this year are best since 2005...In March Chrysler sales rose 44%.....but, you can be as pessimistic as you like.....
#23 May 6, 2012
And they fell in April for all the automakers. You apparently are not bothered by the high unemployment numbers for African Americans, teenagers, and the additional estimated 14-15% of Americans who have just stopped looking for work altogether which would make the true unemployment rate closer to 20%. You prefer fuzzy math so you can stay "optimistic." Good for you.
#24 May 6, 2012
I'm almost glad, the sales went down in April....so you and your f*cking fuzzy math, would have something to celebrate....
#25 May 7, 2012
Getting testy are you??? You wouldn't have to get testy if you would understand what "fuzzy math" is all about. It's all about fooling you and millions of other Americans who accept what anyone says at face value without looking into the numbers behind the numbers. I didn't accept the GW numbers at face value either and I didn't base how the country was doing by how my personal 401K was doing either. I also didn't base how the country was doing on the earnings of companies who were given bailout monies that didn't bother to pay those monies back to the taxpayer. I prefer accountability to "feeling good about the economy." But, that is just me. You are entitled to "feel good about the economy" for whatever reason you may have. Have some coffee, maybe that will help you feel better.

Back to the fictional faceless generic Julia, for that is the way that BHO and his kind see everyone faceless generic, not really an individual just a thing. So the delusional BHO went with this garbage because of the fact he has never lived a life he is a fictional character just like Julia.

When will the Neo-Cons, Teabaggers, and other supporters of the grand old party come to realize that this story is what really happens in real life all the time. Liberals understand all of this, so it was produced to teach you right wing fanatics.
It was only given as a cartoon because you were all home schooled and have a hard time adjusting to normal educational forms.
#28 May 7, 2012
The "fictional lives" are those born with silver spoons in their mouths is more accurate.
The GOP just loves to think no one has a memory as they are too worried about how others interrupt figures and stats and go on their fuzzy math rant. I really can't be the only one that took a class about how "facts" can be reported in several different manners and still be accurate. We're not hearing so much about the "elite" any more now are we? I think the birth certificate is finally a dead issue, maybe we can hear the end of "Messiah" too as Romney is in the cult religion.
#29 May 7, 2012
Sorry interjecting reality into your Pie-In-The-Sky outlook on the condition of things is pissing you off to the point of losing it and having to censor yourself, but make no mistake, I'm in no way celebrating what's happening in our country. I'm just countering your feelings with facts again. However, when cartoon propaganda is the government's best solution to convincing people like you their policies are good for them, it's awfully hard to keep from laughing at those of you who actually buy into it.
Your fellow smart-ass, Bob, predictably getting it wrong again, fails to recognize this cartoon was posted on Obama's site, for Obama followers to enjoy. Conservatives wisely don't frequent that site, but useful idiots, who the progressives clearly feel can only comprehend something as complicated as government control of their body if it's explained ala cartoon, evidently do. That should tell you how this administration feels about your intelligence, to say nothing of how it sees poor Julia, and women in general, as an obedient ward of the government throughout her entire cartoon life. The fact you can't recognize you're considered a cartoon-reading moron by the people you're voting for, then getting angry at people who are trying to knock some sense into your thick skulls, says more about you than anyone else.
Maybe if drew a cartoon for you you could understand it better.

Why couldnt GM and Chrysler have gone the same route as Ford?
Maybe instead of wasting hundred's of BILLION's of taxpayer money on GM and Chrysler, it might have been better to let them balance their budgets themselves.
We will never know the answer to that because Those companies chose to take the free Obama money. GM still owes some $60 Million!
Obama's solution to everything, is throw a bunch of money (that we dont have) at it.
Have you forgotten about the $500 million Solyndra deal?
United Solar, right here in west Michigan got a lot of "bail-out" money also,...they just closed up also.
I do agree with Obama's 2008 campain slogan.
It's time for change!

Holy Cow Blue,.... talk about "flip flopping"
Did you happen to watch any news shows Sunday morning?
You had Joe Biden on Meet the Press saying he's against gat marriage, but then he say's he supports it.
Obama say's he supports gay's, but is against gay marriage, but might change his mind someday.
On Meet The Press, Biden said that if Obama is relected, they will let the Bush tax cuts expire.
That will mean a tax increase on EVERYONE!!!
I'm glad for you that you have so much money that you will be happy to pay more money for Obama's reckless spending!
Romney is right!
GM should have taken care of it's financial situation on it's own.
Why should the taxpayers pay for their ineptness?
The government does not need to own automotive companies.
What's next?
Should the government own Mc Donald's also?

Under Obama, Julia is in college longer than most. The average age of students is from 18-21 yrs. old. Julia is 26 when she completes college and is 4 yrs. behind her classmates. Under Obama, Julia doesnt have to pay back any student loans that she took for her education. Being a fan of the occupy movement, they are taught how to default on their loans. As explained by Frances Fox Piven, a CUNY professor, the idea of not paying back debt, an idea thats been at the forefront of the movement since the beginning:Heres something public sociologists could do I think we need to figure out exactly how students can protect themselves against reprisals if they refuse to pay their debts. How can they protect themselves against having their wages garnished?
Under Obama, Julia would be able to take over private property for her ownership. Because Julia is a fan of occupy, they have figured out how they can defend themselves in the reoccupation of foreclosed homes. They would know how to defend those houses that are occupied. They learned that they can exert enough pressure so that the occupations become legal ownership.

No jobs? Why is that? Profits. Welcome to YOUR economy, it's called a free market, you know the one where the only important thing is a company's bottom line. People are doing the work of two or three and getting paid less. Businesses don't go into business to create jobs, they are there to make money, even if that means the big wigs get to make 4,000 times what the average paid worker receives. If they can't under pay Americans enough then the other alternative is to move that job over the boarder or over seas. Deal with it! This is the fallback of a free market. You people have finally gotten your wish, the unions are crushed and restrictions have been lifted. Every president in the last 40 years has been bought and paid for, even Obama. You have to face the fact that when you embrace a free market and allow corporations to act as individuals the only expected results are high unemployment and low wages. Now go back to watching America's Got Talent or American Idol or whatever it is your watch, a distracted populous is an acquiescent one.

Obama has had every opportunity to prove how your liberal, anti-capitalist, economic plan works and what we have is unemployment still over 8% and companies too afraid to spend for fear of having big government swoop in and mandate their money away. We have the government taking taxpayer money to fund Petrobras,(you remember George Soros right?- he which liberals do not speak of) and the brazilian oil industry so they can turn around and sell oil to CHINA. You remember Solyndra, right?(Again, seemingly liberal Kryptonite), where Obama took billions of taxpayer money to fund a campaign donor that went out of business. That's just a couple of the problems with your anti-capitalism rant, pal.
Please stop with the pie-in-the-sky-government-know s-best and ridiculous theory that these power-hungry career politicians and party machines don't play a large role in the corruption that has seen US jobs flee America for other countries. Your theory is to empower them even further.
The problem with people like you is you type this BS on MACS and PCs using technology developed and paid for through capitalistic economy, then whine about how these evil Apple and Windows - and oil and every other product you use every day - corporations need to be bootjacked by big government, who's only tangible product seems to be corruption and failed policies that serve to only make the political elite rich and powerful.
Now go back to your PC and look up funny YouTube videos for the rest of the day. By the way, if your liberal leaders had their way, and the internet were scoured of free speech, there would be no YouTube, or Topix sites. Isn't Big Government fun!

Skip to comments.Christians Wrong About Heaven
Posted on 02/08/2008 7:25:41 PM PST by 49th
"Tom" Wright is one of the most formidable figures in the world of Christian thought. As Bishop of Durham, he is the fourth most senior cleric in the Church of England and a major player in the strife-riven global Anglican Communion; as a much-read theologian and Biblical scholar he has taught at Cambridge and is a hero to conservative Christians worldwide for his 2003 book The Resurrection of the Son of God, which argued forcefully for a literal interpretation of that event.
TIME: At one point you call the common view of heaven a "distortion and serious diminution of Christian hope."
Wright: It really is. I've often heard people say, "I'm going to heaven soon, and I won't need this stupid body there, thank goodness.' That's a very damaging distortion, all the more so for being unintentional. [...] At no point do the resurrection narratives in the four Gospels say, "Jesus has been raised, therefore we are all going to heaven." It says that Christ is coming here, to join together the heavens and the Earth in an act of new creation. [...] There is Luke 23, where Jesus says to the good thief on the cross, "Today you will be with me in Paradise." But in Luke, we know first of all that Christ himself will not be resurrected for three days, so "paradise" cannot be a resurrection. It has to be an intermediate state. [...] Yes, you might get disappointment in the case where somebody has recently gone through the death of somebody they love and they are wanting simply to be with them. And I'd say that's understandable. But the end of Revelation describes a marvelous human participation in God's plan.
(Excerpt) Read more at time.com ...
Good author. I read his books, "The People of God", "Jesus, the Victory of God", and "The Resurrection of the Son of God". Good historical writing and very thought provoking.
The headline is a diversion from the content of the dissertation.
Very refreshing in light of some of the things that the Archbishop of Canterbury has been saying lately. Good to know England still has a few decent Christians left in her Church.
The title was a little misleading....I'd say that is what most people believe, christians true believers know we won't be floating around on little clouds holding harps....it will be so much better than we can even imagine.
I learned a lot about the melting pot of Judaism, Hellenism, and the Roman Empire that the Lord was born into. It prompted me to want to learn a lot more about life and times at that point in history. These books were an impetus for me to pursue more historical information and writings.
Got your attention. ;-)
He is right! The earth will be restored and the meek will inherit it.
Are you telling me we're not getting 72 black eyed virgins?
Very nice read. Might not this fit better in the Religion forum?
All the same, thanks for sharing it.
I know, it's Time's headline, not mine. I don't editorialize articles I post.
he's entitled to his interpretation and i'm entitled to mine. we'll see who's more correct.
Walter, one of Jeff Dunham's characters, wonders why they wouldn't rather have 72 slutty whores who at least know what they are doing. B-)
Poor reasoning and logic.
Wright: Yes. If there's going to be an Armageddon, and we'll all be in heaven already or raptured up just in time, it really doesn't matter if you have acid rain or greenhouse gases prior to that. Or, for that matter, whether you bombed civilians in Iraq. All that really matters is saving souls for that disembodied heaven.
Left wing nonsense.
Yes, the resurrection of the body is a traditional Christian teaching with biblical support. There are two ancient doctrines, related but different: the immortality of the soul, and the resurrection of the body. Traditional Christians believe in both.
Jesus said to the Good Thief on the cross next to Him, "Tonight you will be with me in Paradise." So this and other passages led to the traditional belief that the soul after death goes directly to God for individual judgment, and then will reunite with the resurrected body at the Last Judgment. Those are the teachings of the Fathers, the early Creeds, and the Catholic Church, as well as Protestants who still read their Bibles.
Fascinating piece, thank you for posting.
Wright: Yes. If there's going to be an Armageddon, and we'll all be in heaven already or raptured up just in time, it really doesn't matter if you have acid rain or greenhouse gases prior to that. Or, for that matter, whether you bombed civilians in Iraq. All that really matters is saving souls for that disembodied heaven.
While it is true we are to be good stewards of the earth, the idea this guy is putting out that "acid rain" and "greenhouse gases" will make it harder for God to create the new heavens and the new earth is idiotic.
And why do I suspect that when he refers to bombing "civilians" in Iraq, he is not talking about jihadist terrorists but rather the U.S. military?
2 Peter 3: "the day of the Lord will come as a theif in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the words that are in it will be burned up."
Rev 21: "I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away"
You didn't actually read the article, did you?
Peter upon this Rock I build MY church...( not Calvins not Henry 8th not Luthers not the Shopping center retail Church)
The Pope the Vicar of Christ direct descendant of St Peter speaks about heaven and hell and Mentions nobody talks about sin anymore and its Consequences.Good Reading...
Do people really understand the BIBLE??
Actually I did. Where am I wrong?
Heavenologists....what a concept..
Thanks, that was an excellent, concise summary. What is your preferred theory of eschatology? I say "preferred" because I don't necessarily subscribe to any - to many good theologins are all over board on it other than the most broad outlines. Is there a generally accepted eschatology in the Catholic Church or are they as all over the board as we Protestants?
I don't find any particular conflict between what the bible scholar said and my understanding from the bible.
He didn't talk about hell and the second death though. I can't ignore that.
One of the big differences between my understanding of the afterlife and that of Islam is that the Christian one is not sensual which to the carnal mind might seem less appealing; I'll have it however Jesus would have it. Jesus told us that we wouldn't marry or be given in marriage but be as the angels in heaven. Now in the resurrection, I don't have any idea what our bodies will be like.
I do think that may be why the Catholic teaching of displining ourselves might be helpful in overcoming lusts of the flesh and inordinate appetites.
I wonder if men will run everything there? Not much, if anything, is said about what womens' roles will be unless we share in running things, too, not that I would want that personally, don't like ordering anyone around, but then I think of male domination and oppression which does not appeal to me either (maybe because of abuse, strict father, dunno).
I long to be free without sinning!!! And I would love to have work that I enjoy, sometimes wonder if I will be allowed to do what I desire, also crave learning and understanding of the spiritual and the present physical world, some of which has eluded me in life.
Another very good book on this issue is HEAVEN by Randy Alcorn.
I believe that "to be absent from the body is to be with the Lord" (2 Cor.5), so the question would be where is Jesus now? The 9th chapter of Hebrews tells us that "He has entered the Most Holy Place", and if this is not clear enough, in the 10th chapter the author adds that He has "sat down at the right hand of God". I may not be as book smart as this bishop, but I firmly believe that Jesus is in heaven now, and when I die I will join Him there. Unless, of course, He comes back before I die. That doesn't negate the description of the new earth in Revelation but until then, every born-again believer who has accepted God's gift of salvation by faith in Jesus' finished work at the Cross, is heaven-bound.
To-day shalt thou be with me in paradise.
This saying of our Lord as strong proof of the
immateriality of the soul; and it is no wonder that those
who have embraced contrary opinions should endeavor to
explain away it's true meaning.
In order to do this, a comma is placed after to-day,
and then our Lord is supposed to have meant, Thou shalt be with me after the resurrection I tell thee this, To-Day.
I am sorry to find men of great positions in the church
attempting to support this most feeble and worthless
Such support of God's word cannot need; and,
in my opinion, it's not only a bad interpretation but it
tries to discredit the Scriptures.
If I want to learn how to worship the beast I will read
Time magazine and the New York Times.
According to the Bishop, the Bible is clear that Jesus has been resurrected and is in 'heaven', but that our mortal deaths are not the resurrectory step that is required for us to enter that realm with him, but we must wait until Jesus comes back to earth, at which point we shall be resurrected and heaven and earth shall be one.
"eye has not seen, and ear has not heard, and what has not entered the human heart, what God has prepared for those who love him,"
1 Corinthians
Chapter 2 verse 9
"I can imagine a lot."
Han Solo
jwalsh07: Left wing nonsense.
Sounds like pretrib dispensationalism to me.
Most Protestants read that to mean that the church will be built upon the "rock" of Peter's faith, not on the man himself, nor his figurative descendants.
Actually it's Gnostic Manicheism.
I wonder if there will be any sexual identity at all? Jesus' comments on no marriage in Heaven and the many verses on the spiritual equality (more a concept of oneness in the original Greek) of the sexes, economic classes, races, etc, and it would seem that physical reproduction would not be necessary; all lead one to think they could make an argument there is no male/female as we know it in Heaven. Or it might still be there.
Probably I shouldn't have implied, with that word "yes," that I agreed with everything he said. Only that the resurrection of the body is an important teaching, as well as the immortality of the soul.
It was careless of me, and one shouldn't be careless about such matters.
Cicero, I fear the fault was mine as I didn't have any problem whatsoever with your post. I think I arbitrarily clicked on reply to because I had last read yours, probably should have gone back and replied to the OP.
I'm heading off for bed, and I think your question raises too many issues to respond to briefly. But the Catholic Church teaches that Christ will come on the clouds of glory at the Second Coming, and at that time there will be a General Judgment or Last Judgment.
It also teaches that when persons die their souls go before God for a particular judgment. Catholics retain the doctrine of Purgatory, which is a place or state where souls go who will eventually go to heaven, but died in a state of imperfection or venial sin, not serious enough to condemn them to Hell.
To me that is comforting, and Dante's depiction of Purgatory (not official teaching, but certainly important and I believe consonant with orthodox teaching) portrays souls that suffer the pains or fires of purgation yet are happy because they will eventually be released to heaven.
The idea of the tribulation is a late development in Protestant theology, not found before the nineteenth century, although it appears to be increasingly common among the various Evangelical persuasions. I'm pretty familiar with some of the wild doctrines that appeared in England in the 1650s, among such sects as the Ranters, Anabaptists, and Quakers, yet that was not one of them. Samuel Butler's parents were among the early adherants of this doctrine, as found among the Plymouth Brethren; he revolted against his parents and portrayed this experience in his autobiographical novel, "The Way of All Flesh."
Any discussion about Heaven needs one very critical question, that cannot be overlooked: Why Heaven?
What about people is worth keeping? Most arguments along these lines lead to the one small and indefinable part of people, the soul, as being the one, non-expendable part.
Everything else about people can be seen as superfluous. Our bodies, our memories and knowledge, our personalities, all the good and evil parts. There is some debate as to whether our souls grow and change, and thus retain lessons of some variety, perhaps even in more than one lifetime.
But the concept of a soul is a tricky thing. It must be bound together with a perhaps a different, but also indefinable part of us, our awareness. That is, a soul, aware that it is a soul, and also aware of other souls, and of God.
So there are two things, bound together. The part that Heaven wants, and the part that is aware of things Heavenly.
But a big question is, are souls perfect, or do they need growth before they can achieve Heaven or oneness with God?
Shed of our human garb, some consider that all souls are already perfected fragments of God, that returns to God when freed from their mortal shell. Others propose that souls must combine with each other, to evolve into ever more complex states of being, until they are perfected enough for this rejoining.
From this perspective, Heaven is greater than Earth, but is itself a training ground for souls in their growth. It is a form of life beyond the physical, where souls merge into ever more complex and perfected beings until worthy to rejoin with God.
But this is a very different idea from a return by, and resurrection by, Jesus. As taking place on Earth, this is far more like the Jewish concept of Messiah, establishing a hegemony of God on Earth.
In this purpose, the vast armies of resurrected believers would serve perhaps one of two purposes. Either to create a New Jerusalem, a kingdom of God on Earth; or perhaps to return the world to the pristine state of Eden. All those human hands, no longer consuming, but restoring.
Any number of such possibilities is certainly food for thought.
Well mentioned. I'm a little surprised the off-the-cuff analysis wasn't more rigorous, considering it's rather simple.
For all the Hebrew/Jewish scholarship at the time of the New Testament writing, and including the Aramaic at the incarnation of Jesus Christ, the underworld, as expressed in the Greek was composed of four chambers.
HADES (Greek) also referenced as SHEOL(Hebrew) as being 'down there', an underworld, composed of "Abraham's Bosom" also referenced as Paradise for believers, and as the TORMENTS for unbelievers. Other discernible compartments were TARTARUS, a place where fallen angels are chained/imprisoned till later and the ABYSS where the demon Apollyon is recorded as being kept until the Tribulation.
Whether physical or not, below the earth we touch or perhaps that is how we perceive it, whether it be empirically, rationally, or spiritually, nonetheless the locations are mentioned in Scripture and are therefore very real and truly exist.
We also know that at bodily death, Jesus Christ's body was taken to the tomb, placed in the grave. His spirit had been relinquished to the Father while Christ was on the Cross by Jesus Christ. His soul departed His body after it ceased bodily functioning.
A gap ensued between when the body went in the tomb and 3 days later, was found to be resurrected by the multiple eyewitness testimonies of physically touching and seeing Jesus Christ alive in the flesh, but a discernibly different body, not to be confused as a ghost, but one that also ate meat, but could walk through walls, travel immense distances in time and space in moments.
We see in Acts and the Gospels and some epistles, that when He resurrected, others also accompanied Him out of the grave, though He was the First Fruits.
He ministered to the spirits in HADES during that interval. This implies really those in Paradise as He told the thief on the Cross He would see him in Paradise that same day. Yet not much is spoken to whether He may have also went into other portions of HADES.
He is God, so nothing could prevail against Him. Nothing would be able to prevent Him going elsewhere, except something which might have been immutable to His nature. So whether he went into the Abyss or the Torments might be arguable, but since Scripture doesn't say much (that I've found) this may be a moot point.
He didn't have a resurrection body at that time, but from the soulish or spiritual viewpoint, He still resided in that place, so a body of some sort is identified with the person in those places.
Today, after His Resurrection, we now have a different situation. Whereas OT saints still could not ascend to the immediate presence of God in the third heaven, because the real sacrifice had not yet been given, today we know Jesus Christ has ascended even to the third heaven, and seated at the right side of the Father.
We also know that nothing separates the believer from the love of God and that separate from the body we are face to face with the Lord. There does seem to be a body associated with the believer today, after death, but still prior to the Rapture or 2nd Coming which the believer in heaven is associated and recognizable by other saints and even sinners from the stories of Lazarus and the rich man.
Paul reports a person he knew who had visited the third heaven but unable to discern if in body or not.
I report from dreams, that one might indeed be in a place, spoken of in language as being a real physical place, whether a physical or not physical place, not verifiable, but insofar as our soul and spirit is able to discern and discuss it appears quite a real place. But Scripture tells us more in our Lord Christ Jesus as He is the First Fruits.
In addition, there is a good Biblical argument to be made there are different "levels" of Heaven and Hell. To the extent there are different levels of Hell one made not need to be saved to store treasure in Heaven.
You make some good points.
I've found one can understand Bible doctrinally, certain aspects of heaven and the future in His Plan, which are trustworthy, but placing them into context with our place today is somewhat extant and discernible.
For example.
I can say I have body and soul and through faith in Christ recognize the Holy Spirit has regenerated my human spirit today, as a I live right now. I can discern that existence and perceptions from what I was when I was also here as a man only with a body and a soul.
Next, I study about my Lord and Savior Christ Jesus, how He had a body, soul, and spirit. I also understand how He expressed Himself indicating a separation of His spirit from His soul and from His body. I understand from Scripture, from multiple eyewitness testimony how He returned in a Resurrection Body, the First Fruits, where He ate meat(fish), could pass through walls, other men prior to their first death could touch His resurrection body, and discerned it from a ghost.
I know academically, three heavens exist, ... The first being the heavens on earth, where birds fly and clouds float by; the third where God resides.
I know from vivid dreams of being in a place in a body, yet my physical body remains on earth, but discernible from mere sleep in that other persons exist with input to my soul and spirit of things I have not had nor will have access to know or perceive otherwise. Yet I know I do not yet have a resurrection body, so perhaps this is a 2nd heaven. This 2nd heaven though also has a earth with similar topology, geography as many places here, which I had never before see, but later visited physically and knew features only from past spiritual perception.
I also know of an OBE, wherein I could perceive physical features in a hospital clinic room, which I had not seen otherwise in bodily person, but as I arose I still had body though not physical.
But whatever these 'vivid dreams' or OBE, they are not identical to the ressurrection body.
I also understand that we will face a future judgment by fire, similar to how the Earth underwent a judgment by water in the days of Noah.
I tend to think, that believers will face a testing, communicated as similar to a metal being refined by fire, so the dross is taken away. I suspect this might imply our thinking which is scarred, or not sanctified, which influences and is retained by our souls and or spirits, will be tested and burned up. That process might be identifiable with the issues of Purgatory, although I also agree with arguments indicating Purgatory as a parallel heaven is not Scriptural.
There are also doppelgangers, or our doubles. Perhaps spiritual deception, or perhaps resurrection body, I do not know.
Absolutely correct. God created the earth and said it was "good". M\an created to replenish the earth. Nowhere does scripture, whether infallible or not, whether Hebrew or Greek mention we are to leave.
Yeah, but after the fall in the Garden, all of Creation groaned and continues to look forward to the New Heaven and New Earth. Just a good number of millenia in between and where we fit at any one time varies with His plan for us.
Jesus Said MY CHURCH.... whenever did he give a counter Command to found a New Church!Never!
The Catholic Church is Jesus Church the Bishops are his present day Apostles..
The "Fall" is an interpretation that fits you brand of theology. Which is fine for you but I don't happen to believe because of one sin entropy exists in the universe. Creation was termed by God "good". I believe it was "good" back then and its still "good" now.
If you will read the whole article, I think you will find the teachings have been "told before".
What do you think?
If you'd like to read intertestimental descriptions of 8 levels of heaven and chasms of the underworld (hell)as one of them was described by Jesus being "Abrahams Bosom", the 1st and 2nd books of Enoch describe all that stuff. I really don't buy into it but it seems you're interested. I'm sure its where Dante got most of his ideas.

PARIS, April 16 Veolia Environnement and its peer Suez Environnement both denied on Wednesday that the companies are in talks on a merger or even studying such a project.
Shares in Veolia closed 4.3 percent higher and Suez closed 7.1 percent higher following an Exane BNP Paribas research report which said the "stars are aligned" for the French waste and water companies to revisit the idea of merging. Volume in Suez stock was the second highest in more than a year.
"There are no talks ongoing and there is no project for an alliance. The speculation on the bourse is based on nothing," a Veolia spokesman said.
A Suez spokesman also denied alliance plans. "Two years ago we held talks, which were broken off. Today, the project is definitely not on the agenda," he said. (Reporting by Geert De Clercq; Editing by Anthony Barker)

Austrian born actor best known for his role as Gloria Swanson's ex-husband/butler in the classic 1950 film about Hollywood decay entitled Sunset Boulevard. Besides acting, Von Stroheim was also a director in the silent era. Though almost all of his pictures ran over budget and flopped at the…more
Von Stroheim the director considered Greed star Zasu Pitts the best dramatic actress he ever saw.
In the 1918 film Heart of Humanity Von Stroheim's character threw a baby out of a window.
Von Stroheim is buried at Maurepas Cemetary in Maurepas, France.
Parents names were Benno and Johanna Stroheim.
Von Stroheim wrote a novel entitled Paprika which was published in the mid-1930's.
Though he had been barred from the MGM studio lot, Von Stroheim returned in 1932 to appear in As You Desire Me at the personal intercession of star Greta Garbo who wanted him in the picture.
Von Stroheim the actor was easy to work with according to most directors but Von Stroheim the director was a legendary tyrant who drove his actors crazy and constantly went over budget.
Von Stroheim was irate when MGM Studios cut his film Greed down to just over two hours running time. He always blamed studio executive Irving Thalberg for this.
Von Stroheim never learned how to drive an automobile. In the two scenes he's seen driving in Sunset Boulevard, the first was in a fake car on top of a flatbed truck and the one outside Paramount Studios the car was pulled with ropes by off-screen personnel.
Although nominated for an Academy Award for his performance in Sunset Boulevard, Von Stroheim detested his role calling it nothing but a damn butler.
Von Stroheim played a sympathetic German POW commandant in Jean Renoir's classic 1937 anti-war film The Grand Illusion.
Von Stroheim has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. It is located at 6822 Hollywood Boulevard.
Von Stroheim was 5 feet, 7 inches tall.
Von Stroheim played a mentally unbalanced ventriloquist in the early 1929 talkie The Great Gabbo.
Von Stroheim immigrated to the United States on board the S. S. Prince Friedrich Wilhelm and arrived in New York on November 25, 1909.
Von Stroheim served briefly in the Austrian Army as an enlisted man and retained a fascination for all things military the rest of his life.
Von Stroheim claimed to be from an aristocratic background but in reality his father owned a garment factory.
Son Joseph von Stroheim worked for many years in Hollywood as a sound director on shows such as The Untouchables.
Von Stroheim was awarded the Legion of Honor by France in 1957 shortly before he passed away.
Von Stroheim was nicknamed "the Man You Love to Hate" for his villainous German roles during World War I.
Sunset Boulevard was the final American produced film in which Von Stroheim appeared. He spent his later years living in France.
Stroheim worked as an assistant director for D. W. Griffith and had bit parts in Griffith's classic films Birth of a Nation and Intolerance.
Von Stroheim portrayed German Field Marshal Erwin Rommel in the 1943 film Five Graves to Cairo. Some critics said he was too sympathetic in the role.
The Von Stroheim directed film, Greed, was originally six hours long but was cut by the studio to just over two hours running time.
Von Stroheim was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor in 1950 for his performance as butler Max von Mayerling in Sunset Boulevard.
Von Stroheim replaced Boris Karloff on Broadway in the role of Jonathan Brewster in Arsenic and Old Lace.
Von Stroheim (about the editing of Greed): The man who cut my picture had nothing on his head but a hat.
Von Stroheim: I could not work with a girl who did not have a spiritual quality.
Von Stroheim: In Hollywood, you're as good as your last picture.
Von Stroheim: When you ask me why I do such pictures I am not ashamed to tell you the true reason: I do not want my family to starve.

Popeyes - Cuthbert, GA - Phone: (229) 732-6655
Cuthbert has fast food and carry out options available. Fast foods refer to food items that can be prepared and served within the short span of time. The food is made with preheated or precooked ingredients, and is usually taken away by the customer. Some of the common fast food options include sandwiches, pizzas, salads, sodas and other similar items. The outlet may or may not have seating space. It is, quite often, a kisok alone. One can take the food away personally, or it can be delivered to the residence after making an order via internet, telephone or the fax. Fast foods are usually cheap and filling (not to mention tasty), but should be consumed in moderation. One can also make healthier food choices with appropriate servings and choosing grilled items.

My typical day is to get all the breakfast ready and take care of customers and cook and serve what they would like that day.
By 11 am i start to prepare the lunch specials and get all prepared and prepped and ready for noon.
I make sure that the cafe is cleaned at all time. I also have to make sure that all orders are done on time.
Every month i have to get inventory done.
I have been learning how to manage time and how to do inventory and how to do orders and take care of the customers in a fast pace.
I get alone and work well with my co-worker.
The hardest part of the job would be when we are not busy and my hours get cut.
I very much enjoy being with the public and helping them with what they need. I Enjoy cooking and keeping busy at all times
