    Did you google that??? If you didn't, I'm proud there's someone who appreciates Dune.
    Well done, you've won yourself an inter bread guppy! If you're in PE of Jbay sometime soon you can get all of them :)

    Linchpin as tempting as it may be to get some interbred guppies, I'm going to have to pass on this one....how about giving them to some little kid who is looking to get into fishkeeping instead and who will probably appreciate them more :)

    hey Lincpin - that was the Missonara Protectiva - I personally prefer the ramblings of the Bene Gesserit, But the Tlelaxiau have some great insights

    Please Pray

    Hi All

    My grandfather (82) is going in for a big operation on his gall bladder, and has to have I think what it is similar to kidney stones except for that it is in the gall bladder. My grandfather has been having heart problems. At the moment his heart is only going at 20% of it's full functioning condition.

    He will be having the operation tomorrow morning. The thing is that the doctors are not sure whether his heart will be able to handle the operation. My parents told me that tonight might be the last time I will be able to see him. I was just asking all of you if you could please pray for my grandfather and for the operation to go well and that he will make it.

    Peter

    Bumping this one because it's dead and because I had no idea that we even had a thread on TASA where religious discussion was allowed.

    "Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?"
    Came across something fun today which I think sums up the attitudes, and flaws in the logic, of a lot of believers today. Obviously it's not to be taken at face value but I think it's funny and makes some useful points.
