My understanding was that education and internet was putting a big damper on religion (maybe not Christianity in particular.)

Here's a graph from the Ollin College of Engineering that shows this:

I got the picture here: How the Internet Is Taking Away America

The article states:

hat leaves him in little doubt that his conclusion is reasonable. “Internet use decreases the chance of religious affiliation,” he says.

That is because there is nothing outside of him. In him we live and move and have our being. Yea I know,amazing isn't it ?.

The internet is the anti-Christ!!

I really like this quote from the article.

Too many Christian’s are becoming fed up with Fox News or Pat Robertson and his 700 Club being the face of Christianity.

I believe in God and I believe in Jesus Christ, but I don't believe everything in the Bible is meant to be taken as literal history and it definitely isn't a science textbook. On most issues I favor the liberal perspective over the conservative one. I have a hard time labeling myself "Christian" because of what of the way teavangelicals have hijacked the label.

Don't even get me started on Canadians, I am seeing a doctor for that already.


But yeah, Trout is the antichrist, and _____ is his prophet, one is the head, and one is the tail, one eye is given to see everything good, and one eye of a beast that walks like a king and speaks as a leopard.

Now-now boys and girls.

I am neither the anti-Christ nor a leopard and had nought to do with the towers except mourn in shock and horror along with most of the rest of humanity.

Though I admire the heck out of leopards.

They're wonderful beasts, elegant and powerful - majestic as are all cats in their way.... Ok, fine - call me a leopard.

But can you speak like one?

I have a pretty good growl.

Hissing and spitting, maybe not so much.

By the way, I heard a deer snort for the first time yesterday. I was surprised, they're usually very quiet and just stamp their foot if they want to make their feelings known.
