Large letters

This is a great verse from the Bible: "See what large letters I use as I write to you with my own hand!" (Galatians 6:11). I just think it's funny. I wonder if the original manuscript was written with big letters. I also like the context: Paul's letters are mostly (I think) written by other people as he dictated to them what to write. Towards the end of Galatians, he writes some of it himself to emphasize its importance and to make it more personal. But apparently he wrote larger than his scribe; large enough to mention it. #religion

This is not for the geek-faint-of-heart: for (my) future reference, here's what I just learned about iframes: The problem with putting an iframe on each page at the top to act as a menubar is that the links you click on open up in the iframe itself, instead of in the main page. The problem with making a main page that consists of a menubar, and then opening all the links in an iframe below the menubar is that the addressbar at the top of the screen always says it's on the same page. That's the whole reason I didn't want to use frames in the first place. #technology

Seeing God

Do you want to see God? Doesn't everybody? Wouldn't that make it so much easier to believe everything about Christianity? Here's why I think we can't see God: Hebrews 11:1 says, "Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see." If we saw God, we would no longer have any use for faith. The problem with this is that "...everything that does not come from faith is sin." (Romans 14:23) So in other words, if we saw God and continued to live, we couldn't not be living in sin because seeing God eliminates faith, which is required in order to not sin. (Did I just unravel the universe? Probably not -- it's probably a mistranslation) #religion
