Narnia

I saw Narnia: the lion the witch and the wardrobe....
it was great i thought. i think the acting of the 4 kids was tremendous.... i liked lucy the best... maybe one day ill have a kid like her.
anyways, i cried at the part when aslan gave them crowns... i couldnt help but picture what it must be like for the God of the Universe to crown you and give you a name. I saw a little of myself in all 4 of the human characters.. called correctly "sons of adam" in the movie.
Go see it.. its clean and can give you a lot of insight on how man relates to God and the world we live in.

Old Earth Creationist

I love to study science and in particular the ongoing debate between scientists about the origins of our universe and how life came to be. I have been reading up on some things lately and recently I have come to believe that in my opinion the old earth creationist view seems to be the most logical and scientific. Old earth creationists DO NOT believe in evolution at all, we simply believe that the universe/earth is more than the standard 10,000 years that most creationists say they adhere to as the age of the earth. Many leading scientists, philosophers, and theologians hold this view. William Lane Craig and Hugh Ross, and may others, have provided some brilliant arguments in defending this view. There is more and more scientific evidence that not only the universe is old, but that it had a beginning. The fact that the universe appears to be so old, and that it had a beginning, is actually a huge plus for those that hold to the theory of intelligent design because of something called the Kalam Cosmological argument for the existence for God. This argument goes something like this: 1) Everything that begins to exist has a cause. 2)The universe began to exist 3)therefore, since the universe began to exist then it must have had a cause. The agnostics/atheists are scrambling and doing diligent work to try to find a "cause" that can be explained scientifically, and they say that just because you don't know a cause doesn't mean you can just explain it away by a belief in God. I cant understand how a God that is not physical could create the physical universe, but to me that is the most logical conclusion.

wacky wild stuff

5 Reasons Virginia Tech will win the National Championship

#1 Defense, Defense, Defense... the hokies are #1 in points allowed per game (under 10 points)
#2 More Defense... va tech is #2 in the land at yards allowed per game
#3 Can you have too good of a defense? Va tech is #3 in opponents passing efficiency
#4 with a turnover margin at +10, they are ranked #4 in the NCAA.... smart play, mistake free
#5 lets get to offense... and yep his name is Vick! #2 passer rating of all QB's at 167.2 ...anyone want take a guess at how insane his rating would be if he actually threw for more touchdowns instead of running it in?

PS VA Tech has not been trailing since 29 quarters ago.. when they were trailing in their first game
