What do you think of the man who proved God existed and came close to sharing?
A woman preacher who came to a church I was attending told about a man who proved God existed through science machines and data work back in 1938. He was an Italian and a staunch atheist and determined to prove God did not exist he set out on a mission but then was shocked when his evidence showed God was real. But the Fascit Italian governemnt, being atheist, got wind of it and refused to allow any evidence of God to be shown and arrested the man and destoryed all his paperwork and photographs. They jailed him for seven years but he secretly kept photocopies in a wallet until he was freed in 1944 and traveld by bus to Switzerland where he set out to duplicate the results. He finally did in 1953 but lost the evidence when the trunk with the evidnece was put on the wrong train back to Italy and he was forced to duplicate it a third time. In 1956, he set out to New York to display the evidence and show the shocked world God existed but ironically the ship he choose was the Andrea Doria and the ship sank off Nantucket and all the evidence and the machines used to prove it sank with the ship to the seabed. The science was unable to duplicate without his oriongal sketchs but he was close to getting the evidence again in 1960 when he died of a heart attack in Rome. He told his story to a nurse who told the story to her niece, who was the women preacher who told it to the Holiness church I attended. What is your views? How does it feel to know we were so close to hearing the truth.

I hope this is sarcasm, or I've just heard one of the most unconvincing arguments for God's existence.

science machines hahahahahahaha What a backward way to prove something

This story is full of sh!t.

I don't need proof God exists, He is the only one with evidence of their existence. I need proof WE exist!

For proof of His mystery being now finished Rev: 10:7 through the Minds of men of science now receiving His code/keys Rev:1:18 go to http://www.adamandeveseedgatheringministry.com and on the about page and services page and on the proof in the news and science page are many proofs/truths for the now waking and gathering of Gods science and theology for the now end of aging and sickness as the Lord said He had come to do, John 10:10 He came to give us back Life abundant as in the days of Noah, living centuries instead of decades as Noah and Adam, and Eve!

Dear Matthew, I dont know where you are coming from with this. Let me assume you are sincere for a moment. Surely you are aware that "faith" and "proof" are antithetical, arent you? You see, the divine accent is firmly latched onto faith. In spite of the clamour for proof, there is none and there cannot be. You may have noticed a glaring lack of proof, either for or against the existence of God. That is a remarkably neutral balance that He maintains in order to give faith a place to grow. That in itself is noteworthy evidence for those with eyes to see. For the man who looks into a mirror and sees God no additional proof is needed. For the man who sees only his parents offspring, none is possible.

The truth does not require a laboratory, the belief of God is based on faith. We have Jesus to provide us will the actual statement: Jesus said to him, "Have you come to believe because you have seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and have believed." John 20:29 What does the above verse mean? This verse is a beatitude on future generations; faith, not sight, matters. Additionally, when we read Isaiah 55:8, 9 it is clear that trying to find God through a scientific study is kind of pointless: "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways my ways, says the LORD." "As high as the heavens are above the earth, so high are my ways above your ways and my thoughts above your thoughts." After reading the above verses how can we ever think that the Almighty is under a microscope lens? God bless'

Do you think I'm being ungrateful? Is it wrong to feel this way
Do you think I'm being ungrateful? Is it wrong to feel this way?
I'm in my senior year of high school and even though it's just the beginning, there is already a lot of stuff coming up that is going to cost major money. I have three older siblings who are now in there mid to late twenties and no longer live at home. My family would be considered middle class. My stepfather is one of the bigger managers at a grocery store (I don't know what his "official title" is) and my mom works part time as a nurse. I don't ask for a lot of stuff. I usually feel really uncomfortable asking for things, I'm not really sure why. At my school there are a whole bunch of graduation trips. One of them is to Paris, France another to somewhere in Switzerland. The one I really want to go to is to New York. It's for four days and you get to go see two Broadway shows and go to all the museums, and other tourist stuff. It's going to be around $600-700, plus lunch money for each day and spending money. My parents say I probably can't go because it is expensive. I understand it is a lot of money, but I feel really... I don't know what the word is. It's just all of my brothers and sisters got to go on graduation trips (my sister went to Nunavut, and I can't remember where my brothers went) and that was back when my Mom was a single mother. I'm trying to get a job to pay for it myself, but everywhere I apply isn't hiring or has already filled the position, etc. Another thing is I can't go to university I want to go to, not because it's a fancy, prestigious, expensive university, but because it isn't in my home town and therefore my parents won't have enough money. But, they paid for most of my sister and one of brothers tuition, and both of them constantly switched programs (which added costs) and my brother ended up dropping out and my sister took a break because she got pregnant (she's married, don't worry). They also paid all the fees for university applications three or four times for my other brother, and he ended up not going and getting addicted to drugs. I feel like it's wrong for me to feel this way, but at the same time, I just feel like all my brothers and sisters were given tons of opportunities to go the universities they wanted and the trips and stuff and I'm not. I know things are really expensive (otherwise I'd just pay for them myself) and costs have gone up, times are harder, my parents have other things the need to pay for, etc, etc. And that really I should contribute (I try, but I don't really have any money, because I can't get a job) and that I'm lucky to even have the chance to go to university... I'm just, I don't know. I feel gipped, kind of :S (Sorry this is so long, I ramble)

If they gave your bros and sis all that help and you usually don't ask for much, they should allow you to go. I hope you can go, I love NYC.

Two big questions - one about a senior trip to NYC and another about university costs. Keep in mind that the world wide economy is now terrible compared to just a few years ago when your siblings were your age. Reports about the economy are in the news on a daily basis so you are probably aware of how bad it is. This has nothing to do with your mom and stepdad wanting or not wanting to send you someplace, it's a financial reality. Is your biological father available to help? If so, ask him for some assistance - maybe matching funds if you earn part of the money for the trip. Jobs are not plentiful right now. Most jobs that were historically held by teens (fast food, part time shop work) have now been taken by adults who are supporting their families. Still, it doesn't mean jobs are not available. Get creative. You can do the standby babysitting work - even a regular after school or Saturday sitting job for someone in the neighborhood. It could mean sacrificing some social activity but at least you would have the job and income. Walk dogs, have a yard sale, paint or do yard work for your neighbors. Do computer input for people who are less savvy - including correspondence or accounting - QuickBooks Accounting is an easy program. A few hours of data input a day in a small office would help you as well as the business owner. It would also give you another job skill. As far as university expenses, financial assistance, scholarships and grants are available and not just based on your academic background. Check out CLEP, the College Level Examination Program. Talk to your high school adviser about the program or look on line. It will save you hundreds or even thousands of dollars in tuition and book expenses and it will save you many class room hours because you can test out of electives. I tested out of 15 hours and my brother tested out of 27 hours. That was equivalent to a semester for me and almost two for my brother. That is also a lot of saved tuition. Think hard about attending a junior or community college for the first two years. In the U.S. most JCs work closely with state universities to transfer all credits to a four year program. You could live at home, work, attend school and sock away some money for the last two and most important years of your degree program. You will also have a better understanding of where you want your life to go. Don't discount the military either. Depending on your country, you may be able to have the government pay for your education, in full, in exchange for your service. Most of all, talk to your siblings, parents and stepdad. They may have untapped information to share. Good luck.

What to do when Depression comes back
What to do when Depression comes back?
I have had depression since I was 9, and last year (17) I went off my meds with the help of a councelor. I was really really good, and seemed to be in controle of my Depression. THen I made a stupid mistake and moved to Switzerland. I am only out here till January (and my mom is coming in December) So I dont have long to wait, 47 days. But I think my depression is coming back. I can hardly wake up in the morning, I have to FORCE myself out of bed. and if it wasnt for the fact that 2 kids are here needing my care I wouldnt get out of bed. On weekends I sleep the WHOLE weekend. I wake up sometimes to go to the bathroom then crawl back into bed. I feel like there is no hope and the days arent passing. I feel like its forever and a day till I can go home. I can not afford my meds out here on my salary, so is there anything I can do to just calm myslef and give myself hope and energy? p.s. I am taking a multi vitamin since my grandma thought it would help with the fatigue (shes a nurse) and its the routine that kills me. Im not allowed to leave the house because the little one isnt supposed to go outside. I have to stay indoors 24/7. the last time I actually went out was on Saturday for 20 min. and the time before that was Saturday again. im an aupair, but thanks for being so ignorant. not everyone is a younge mom. I hate that everyone assumes that. I cant go out because I work all day and have no time. I am not allowed to go out with the younge one.

Your children could be a good driving force in your ability to function but I know that its not that easy. I would set up a calender and count down the days. Call home if you can as often as you can.You don't have that much more time to go. And as soon as you get home...go to the Dr's. I would also set up a daily regiment so that should keep you on track some. I suffer from depression to so I know what you are going through. Good luck.

It s that time of year when the dark nights cause depression I think that you should try to get some one to look after your children and take time to your self every one should take at least 4 hours to get you head shired and get involved in a hobby , go skiing eat out or just have a coffee and try to relax you don't say if your husband or partner is with you if he is he could be more supportive if not use the time when your mother comes over to help explain your feelings to her let her be your crutch good luck and i hope you turn you life around

You are in a difficult position right now. Depression influences one's perceptions, and the deeper the depression the more hopeless, helpless and dark seems one's plight. Try to keep in mind that these are symptoms that can and will be alleviated once you are able to restart medication. Can anyone send you money for meds? My biggest concern is that you may become suicidal. Email me via my profile if you like.
