huh?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Da_Dohboy: ANYWAYS, the topic header says how many online on Christmas day, rather than during Hanukkah... so the obvious choice would not be Jewish because Jewish people (for the most part) do not worship Christmas.

The connection I saw was that it'd be sad for Christians to be here on the forums on Christmas Day rather than celebrating the birth of Christ with their family instead of being here and it being sad that the Jewish posters being here during Hanukkah instead of celebrating the rededication of the temple...

Da_Dohboy: Christmas Day was the keyword for me... I suppose it's different when Christmas has been secularized so much. Oh well... It's fine.

In the states, christmas day, is one of the few religious holidays, that is also a federal holiday, meaning christian government works can go to chruch, while the rest of us stay home reflecting on the meaning of "seperation of church and state" |

It's just so sad really. It drives me to tears sometimes. | | | |

Got Thirst?
Health experts tell us we should drink at least 64 ounces of water each day. It may reduce the risk of heart attack, give our skin a healty glow, and help up lose weight. We should drink even more water during exercise or if we live in a hot or dry climate. Even if we're not thirsty, we ought to drink water everyday.
Our thirst for God is even more beneficial. When we're spiritually dry, we long to hear from Him through His word, and we search for even a drop of knowledge about Him. When we're excercising our faith in a new way, we want to be close to Him and recieve His strength. Our thirst for God may increase when we see the sinfulness of people around us or when we gain a new awareness of our own sin and need for Him.
Spiritual thirst is a metaphor used throughout Scirpture. Asaph thirsted for answers in his questioning psalm When he saw the wicked prospering, he cried out to God to understand why (Psalm 73:16). He found the Lord to be his strength and realized that he desired nothing but Him (vv.25-26).
If we're spiritually thirsty, we can follow Asaph's principle and draw near to God (v28). He will satisfy us, yet give us a deeper thirst for himself. We'll learn to desire Him above all else. -Anne Cetas
O sinner, won't you come today to Calvary?
A fountain there is flowing deep and wide;
The Savior now invites you to the water free,
Where thirsting spirits can be satisfied. -Peterson | | |

In light of the many perversions and jokes we send to one another for a laugh, this is a little different: This is not intended to be a joke, it's not funny, it's intended to get you thinking.
Billy Graham's daughter was interviewed on the Early Show and Jane Clayson asked her "How could God let something like this happen?" (regarding the attacks on Sept. 11).
Anne Graham gave an extremely profound and insightful response. She said, "I believe God is deeply saddened by this, just as we are, but for years we've been telling God to get out of our schools, to get out of our government and to get out of our lives.
And being the gentleman He is, I believe He has calmly backed out. How can we expect God to give us His blessing and His protection if we demand He leave us alone?
In light of recent events...terrorists attack, school shootings, etc. I think it started when Madeleine Murray O'Hare (she was murdered, her body found recently) complained she didn't want prayer in our schools, and we said Ok.
Then someone said you better not read the Bible in school . the Bible says thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not steal, and love your neighbor as yourself. And we said OK.
Then Dr. Benjamin Spock said we shouldn't spank our children when they misbehave because their little personalities would be warped and we might damage their self-esteem (Dr. Spock's son committed suicide). We said an expert should know what he's talking about. And we said OK.
Now we're asking ourselves why our children have no conscience, why they don't know right from wrong, and why it doesn't bother them to kill strangers, their classmates, and themselves.
Probably, if we think about it long and hard enough, we can figure it out. I think it has a great deal to do wit
