Be warned, it is inane but addictive and very cool.
Really, I wouldn't click on this if I were you.
Never mind, I know you will,
Whats the use of tiring my fingers trying to get you to
not click on it. I just don't know about you anymore!

Surah 29 of the Qur'an,

Do not argue with the people of the Book
unless in a fair way … and say to them:
'We believe what has been sent down to you.
Our God and your God is one,
and to Him we submit.' (29.46)"

SOF: The Need for Creeds | The Maasai Creed [Speaking of Faith® from American Public Media]

: "In 'The Will to Believe' William James took off from Blaise Pascal's's celebrated but highly controversial argument du pari, 'the argument of wager,' in his Pensées:

'Either God is or he is not.' But to which view shall we be inclined? Reason cannot decide this question … Yes; but you must wager. There is no choice … Let us weigh up the gain and the loss involved in calling heads that God exists. Let us assess the two cases: if you win you win everything, if you lose you lose nothing. Do not hesitate then; wager that he does exist."

The Tao abides in non-action,

Yet nothing is left undone.
If kings and lords observed this,
The ten thousand things would develop naturally.
If they still desired to act,
They would return to the simplicity of formless substance.
Without form there is no desire.
Without desire there is tranquillity.
In this way all things would be at peace.

RealClearPolitics - Articles - Never Again?:

"When something happens for the first time in 1,871 years, it is worth noting. In A.D. 70, and again in 135, the Roman Empire brutally put down Jewish revolts in Judea, destroying Jerusalem, killing hundreds of thousands of Jews and sending hundreds of thousands more into slavery and exile. For nearly two millennia, the Jews wandered the world. And now, in 2006, for the first time since then, there are once again more Jews living in Israel -- the successor state to Judea -- than in any other place on earth."

ANTICHRIST REVEALED 6/6/06 ?: "THIS RAISES THE PROBABILITY TO 20 PERCENT THAT ANTICHRIST WILL BE REVEALED: JUNE 6 06."

How many times have people predicted this?
I think this proves that it will not happen!
Why? Because Jesus said that we will not know when it will happen.
So, if we think its going to happen then it is not time yet.

A great quote from the movie "HERO"

I have just come to a realization!
This scroll by Broken Sword contains no secrets of his swordsmanship.
What this reveals is his highest ideal. In the first state,
man and sword become one with each other.
Here, even a blade of grass can be used as a lethal weapon.
In the next stage, the sword resides not in the hand but in the heart.
Even without a weapon, the warrior can slay his enemy from a hundred paces.
But the ultimate ideal is when the sword disappears altogether.
The warrior embraces all around him.
The desire to kill no longer exists.
Only peace remains.
