    For me it came when I was 10 years old and I was standing in the corner of a horse stall watching my dad fix a water bowl which would only take a minute or two. There was a horse in the stall with us that was eating and was calm but when my dad was drilling into wall the screw hit something in the wall and made a loud noise which spooked the horse. That particular horse was pretty young at the time and wasn't as calm as some of the others and it ended up kicking me in the chest as I stood against the wall which fractured my sternum among other things. I had to have surgery to remove bone fragments and was in the hospital for a couple of days. It was difficult in that once I healed I was afraid to go near the animals that I loved so much, but it was the most inspirational moment because I prayed for help and not that long after that I felt a calm come over me and wasn't nervous anymore. Since then I have gone on to compete in local junior rodeos and continue working with horses at home and as a part time job near my university. I have no doubts in my mind that He calmed my heart and mind, and I am forever thankful for it.
    Before I lost the wife some years ago I prayed that God would spare her. I remained faithful even though God had other plans. But He strengthened me in ways I can't explain. I'm not sure if 'inspirational' is the right word, but I was never closer to God than I was for some time after that...it lasted for several years.

    It taught me a lot about faith.

    belief system that reguire you to believe the world is soon going to end with LOTS OF HORROR AND DEATH are very very very very bad for mankind.


    It means those people wont help us FIX and avoid the bad things we see coming because certain religions will see it as good for their religions predictions.


    Its a recepie for disaster for mankind


    how can mankind prevail if you and other only plan FOR FAILURE?
    You don't plan for failure Desh. You look at Grind, Billy and Skidmark and the you nod your head up and down and say....."Yea....we're screwed.".

    Why yes, yes it is. There can be no good without evil. God created good and evil and he gave you the freedom to choose between good and evil.

    We know you're a Dallas Cowboy fan so it's obvious you have chosen evil.

    That's a correct point and I just meant that Jesus doesn't do evil things. As for the Dallas Cowboys i'll typically cheer for any Texas team as long as they are playing a non-Texas team.
