What is Love?

Check out this great video that asks the question, "What is love"?

What a great picture of what a marriage should be.

Did you marry the wrong person?

Did you marry the wrong person?

More than likely you did.... EEK!

Don't worry though here's some great thoughts from "Cross Shaped Thoughts" on what to do about it.

What if Jesus really meant....

I love reading through "Red Letter Christians" website and the challenges that they hold Christians up to.  I realize some worry about their theology and methodology, but I honestly don;t know many Christian groups that ask and answer the right questions that they seem to be doing.

Their new post, "Give It All Away: Could Jesus Possibly Have Meant What He Said About Money?" really hits the nail on the head and is definitely worth a read.  Check it out HERE.

I learned about this through a blog post on Lifesitenews.com, what a great story!

Methuselah

The Bible says that Methsulah lived to be 969 years old, and many other Bible characters lived almost as long (Adam, Noah, Enosh, etc.) Which obviously is quite surprising, and to many people quite impossible.  While I've always taken the stand that God can do anything He sees fit, so if He wants someone to live 969 years then it's going to happen (there are some interesting natural Biblical theories out there to explain how this could have happened).  This has been a stumbling block to many when reading the Old Testament and specifically Genesis.

In my readings over this past week though I came across this article on Gizmodo entitled "Science Finds Fountain of Youth Brain Region That Slows Down Aging".  Basically the article is claiming that there is a section of the brain that ages the person.  So as you grow older this section releases chemicals that actually age your body, and you as a person (which is why certain people seem to age differently and why someone on certain drugs/stress can seem to age faster).  What they are trying to do is actually reduce the speed at which we are aging by stimulating this section of the brain (which they have down in mice). 

So going back to Methuselah, Adam and Noah, what if God, after the flood, simply changed some brain chemistry to speed our aging?  It isn't too far fetched apparently.  Maybe living 969 years is just around the corner...... I hope not :)
