Got home from work today and I got a letter that informed me that I've been awarded another scholarship of a pretty substantial amount.

I'd received a bunch of scholarships when I graduated high school, if I hadn't, I wouldn't have been able to go to university. It's true that I worked hard for them, but it's important to know that no amount of hard work would have gotten me anywhere without this immense support from strangers or the government. I don't want to go too much into it, but my financial situation is pretty dire and it took a turn for the worse last September. So it's really hard to express the relief I felt when I read that letter today. These scholarships literally changed the course of my life for the better, I don't quite know what I'm trying to say, except that it's amazing how far the kindness of strangers can get you.

If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!

Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.

Dead wrong.  The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.

Quote:Some people deserve hell.

I say again:  No exceptions.  Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it.  As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.

Because I no longer qualify for financial aid, I was looking into alternative ways to finance my education before I lost my fingers, and one of the books suggested a patchwork of scholarships. Good for you! Reading your posts, it's clear you have a fine mind, and no doubt deserve every help that you've gotten.


Code:
20:32 <tw> I still don't understand why teams don't approach the game by giving star players neck injuries by aggressive face masking.  Sure, you get penalized a huge chunk, but second half you've got run of the field.
20:32 <SadPandaCow> is your default mode asshole
20:32 <SadPandaCow> or you do have to work up to it

My peeps on IRC chat love me sooooo much! Hehe.

Been eating yummy seafood with my boys. Shrimp ceviche, clams, and yummy beer. Nice Sunday. Beats going to church!
