To: Revelation 911
So now you have come around 180 and are agreeing with the rest of us about the LOVE of money being evil instead of money...don't you think you owe an apology ?

In answer to your question here, the man who won the lottery clearly stated he doesn't bother to play unless the jackpot is over 100 million because that much would enable him to do things to help others. What a fine man and example to the rest of us who is putting his actions to work and not mouthing off. You never answered the other FREEPERS who asked what you do for work and whether or not the product or service was ever misused ? Material things are just that, THINGS and living in a material world condeming all that does not meet your approval is similar to the camel passing thru the eye of the needle. Try to see God's prescence in your fellow man and work along with that instead of slinging arrows at those you dont agree with. Unless somebody can create universes and other life forms I don't think they could really speak for God.

Not to offend but if you take a Jew (Jesus) and make him God and then tell the other Jews they aren't going to heaven unless they abort their own religious views (like the Jewish religion), makes one wonder what difference is there in your beliefs and those of the Hare Krishnas who believe you must come thru Krishna first......and then all the other religions ? ...it goes on and on....and if you really do respect Jesus then his teachings were that the I AM within is GOD and GOD is within everyone....Those who try to sell us Jesus say he is the ONLY way.....you do the math !

This lottery winner should get man of the year IMHO. He's precisely what is good about this country.

read the thread - I acknowledged an incomplete quote early on - yawn....... you are a bit late

public display, il gotten gains

My work is unimportant - however, I own my own machining business and produce medical components for the Pharm industry - real nefarious stuff like screws and pins (sarcasm)

Im to assume then you dont consider the accumulation of material goods and posessions "sinful" - Im less than surprised

thats pleasant and typical of an undisciplined society - but in doing so the trinity is destryed - Christ is denied and the you damn yourself irrevocably unless you repent and accept Christ as the only divine son of God
