    There has never been a real energy crisis, only forgotten knowledge

    It's interesting stuff for sure, even if it directly contradicts everything we've been taught about physics it's worth at least a passing glance. Maybe that's just me. I'm still interested in how long the contraption can provide the current. If it can provide a current that's enough to do...

    There has never been a real energy crisis, only forgotten knowledge

    How many amps can you draw at 1.74V. The guy in the video said you could run a house on 240V, and you can but only if you can pass enough current. You could get 240V by stacking 80 CR2032 batteries but you wouldn't run a cooker on it for very long.

    Fancy phone

    It's a sign that says "You wasted your money on that fancy phone" :P

    Celibacy

    This is all well and good but in the context of the thread title it's hard to avoid the specific requirements of the RCC. If they insisted that only people who had never worn a green hat in their entire life could be priests they would have the right to do it. It might be a stupid rule, it might...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    This sounds like an interesting start but the key question is how long it will produce the voltage. If you've created a battery, that's little more than an interesting way to save buying a battery. If you've produced a battery that produces a voltage for much longer than a regular battery...

    Still Struggling

    I really like the saying that you'll never find a church that is perfect and if you ever do you shouldn't attend it because you'll spoil it.

    Still Struggling

    That sounds like a reasonable stance to take. Much like our pastor asking me not to teach things that contradict church beliefs. That's really something only you can decide. How big a deal is theistic evolution to you? If you feel it's a big enough issue that you couldn't attend a church that...

    Taxing mega churches

    A few problems with the thought. Firstly, you'd have to objectively define "mega church". Secondly you'd need to have some kind of sliding scale so you didn't have a situation where churches were encouraged to expel members because having 10,001 members subjects them to heavy taxation but...

    Still Struggling

    That's an interesting take on it, I hadn't particularly considered that possibility. It's possible that the pastor is, as you say, hoping a new person will change their beliefs. It's possible the pastor doesn't consider it to be a core issue so genuinely doesn't mind either way. It's also...

    Latte, Macchiato, Americano, etc

    I very seldom go to coffee shops because they usually disappoint me. There was a local one that was really good but it couldn't survive the fuhrer's shutdown. Another one managed to survive and the coffee there is good but it's a bit out of the way for us. When I go there I usually order a...

    Still Struggling

    That's an interesting stance for him to take. My pastor said I should avoid teaching anything that directly contradicts the church's stance on issues but aside from that not to worry. Generally contradicting the church's stance strays more into political viewpoints, and I make a point to keep...

    Storing Your Credit Card Info

    The card I use online is set up to email me every time a "large" transaction (over $500) is made and every time a transacton is made without the card physically present, however small the amount. Each month I get a regular email when small sums are taken for regular service charges etc, but it...

    Celibacy

    I never understood the obsession with forced celibacy. I've never been a part of the Catholic church but I think ever single one of the pastors I've known has been married, and it hasn't caused them any issues.

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    Strav, that's Interesting. I'd be keen to know how you get on with it. I remember as a child I wondered, with a child's grasp of such things, whether you could ever make a battery that never ran out. At the time my parents said that if you ever did the battery companies would make it their...

    Still Struggling

    If I recall didn't your pastor also say it wasn't a problem? When I was nominated as an elder I talked to my pastor to make sure my views on pacifism weren't going to be an issue. I didn't want to agree to something only to find that the areas I disagreed with the "standard" church views would...

    + / - about your job?

    I work for myself. The biggest downside is when I fall out with the boss, there's really nowhere to go.

    Which Bible chapter do you find the easiest to understand?

    I wouldn't dispute the importance of Mark's gospel being higher than the family trees of 1 Chronicles :)

    Which Bible chapter do you find the easiest to understand?

    The first several chapters of 1 Chronicles. Nothing much to think about, just endless lists of who begat who. It's like a family tree in longhand.
