| Creationists have to explain thier theology first- before they even think about taking on science. Why do they take the bible even more litereally than its ancient authors did? The Bible is full of contradiction like- the first day and night were created before the Sun was created. At one point god ... |

As pointed out above- christmas was placed on a date that was a traditional pagan day of that purpose and thus has no relation to the actual date of christs birth. So- I guess if your a... |

I like it.
Might be publishable even.
The only problem is youve accidently reinvented - and mashed together- two motown songs!
The temptations "Just My Imagination", and the Commodors "Brick House"!

As a rule of thumb: being told you "look younger than you are" is only an insult to people 18 and under, and is virtually always taken as a compliment by people over 25.
In between its a gray zone- being told you look older/younger can be taken either way. |
