Your so smart! I'm not. So, I can use all the help I can get.
Besides, technology, comes from God anyways, so I'm taking advantage of it.

Perhaps your tech comes from your god, this stuff came from Microsoft, Samsung, Kingston, MDG, Hewlet-Packard, Asus, etc.
Um, smart is a relative term, I prefer to think that I think rather than think I am smart. But anyway, now you know how some other folks can spout myriads of verse or quotations, or paragraphs from books at a moment's notice.

Not at all, it's just those chauvinist "dear's" and the like that rankle on my nerves.

When I was in University I worked as a waitress and it is from that experience that I grew tired of leering males and their endearments. My personal worst is "skirt"..as in, "hey skirt, how 'bout more coffee darling????"""

It does? So God created condoms and computers? "cool" Maybe I'll be more zealous from now on!

By the way, when did God create technological things, after or before he parted the Red Sea?

God gives us the bit by bit revelations of knowledge, that mankind can take and use it for good. Well..........................that depends! On the individual.
Just look at the increase of tecknology over a short period of time.
But in concert with that, knowledge of the word of God, the bible has also increased as well.

That's an understatement!! I used to work at a 24 hour restaurant and I worked the graveyard shift. That meant that all the "manly men" would come pouring in after the bars shut down, drunk and obnoxious thinking they were going to "get lucky" with the "sweet young thing". I used to find them both annoying and funny, thinking, "hey, you've been in a bar all night buying drinks for probably every girl who would let you and now you're in a restaurant looking for grub with all your male buddies, not a girl in sight thinking your "charms" are now going to work on the lady serving you coffee." Oh, a nickle for every single time I thought of pouring the coffee right on their laps so I could get them where their brains were located:)

OK. Basic 101. Take a musician as an example. Some folks are born with the ability to create music. It is natural to them while for some of us, it is a chore.
A gifted musician can use his gift for the good of mankind, or he can use it for his own personal selfish reasons.
I know of one individual, I won't mention the name, but this individual is only one of many who have taken the gift and abused it to their own pearl.
Was raised in the church, sang solo's, sang in the choir and blessed allot of people. But then got noticed by the record company's and now has done a 180 to what this individual was brought up in.
This individual has been taken by this worlds lusts and riches and pretty near destroying life of which she onces had.
Not all is lost, mine you. This individual knows of its roots, and needs to repent and go back to them and serve God instead of man.
One can see on TV the turmoil this individual is going through, and is a heart breaker.

But that's okay because God probably created records and CD's anyway, didn't he? Sorry, couldn't resist. I know what you mean:)

Nuts. Ideas beget technology which begets technology which begets ideas and so forth. Now you'll say, "where do ideas come from if not God", and I'll say, "from the various parts of the brain depending upon which type of idea it is". Then you'll say, "Where does the brain come from" and I'll say, "Our genetics". blah blah blah. Eventually, it'll boil down to the universe: you'll say you think it came from your god, and I'll say that I think it always existed and evidence will suggest I'm closer to the facts than you because there is no evidence for the existence of gods outside the human mind and then you'll revert back to the faith and belief thing, and I'll ascribe to the analysis of available data thing, etc.

Good conversation with yourslf! Just....................... kidding.
Gilbert, just look around you. What do you see? Everything good reflects the createability of "a" God.
Rom 1:20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

Did I not say that the bible has all the answers?

Question is: Do we want to believe it?
