Yes, we need to more than double the estimated population of gorillas living in the Congo, as 125,000 more have been found. What is interesting here is that they were all willing to stand in line and be counted. I mean, I just got back from Six Flags, and a line of 100 (people) made me want to run and hide too.

What is more incredible to me is the fact that they were unaccounted for in the first place. We are so sure that dinosaurs died out millions of years ago despite the Biblical and historical account of dinosaurs living with man, as well as the eyewitness account of tribesmen living in the same place (the Congo) as these gorillas, (as well as eyewitness accounts in other places in the world), that we scoff at the idea that even one may still be alive, though there's probably more.

If we can overlook 125,000 gorillas, surely the possibility of one sauropod alive and well is strong. Just because we don't have one in a zoo does not mean they don't exist in a remote area of the world, such as the 18,000 acres these gorillas were "hiding out" in.

I wonder just how much it would take to equip the local eyewitnesses with disposable cameras and advertise a reward for a picture of one - alive and well.

What would it do to the belief in millions of years?

We finally popped in the movie Facing the Giants into our VCR. I've wanted to watch it for a while now because I had heard it was good, and because it had Christian elements in it, though I did not know how blatant. I mean, maybe it was just a feel good family movie where someone looks up into the sky in an emotional moment and says, "Oh, thank you God."

However, it didn't take me long to realize this movie was not suitable for all viewers, because before it started, Sony threw up this disclaimer, saying essentially, "Hey, if this movie offends you because it is about the power and love of Jesus Christ, don't blame us, we don't believe in that stuff; we're just here to make money. As it turns out, targeting you Christians can be quite lucrative. Just ask Mel Gibson."

Yes, the only thing more memorable than the movie was that disclaimer warning us unsuspecting viewers that the movie uses the term "Jesus Christ!" - not in the inflammatory way it is typically used, but rather as a means of praise and worship.

When the Bible says that "the Word of the Lord is offensive to them," I guess that is what they mean!

Wow. This is great. At my oft-visited Jewel food store, I can now pay for my goods using my right-hand index finger. Once I sign up, my credit/debit/preferred cards are no longer necessary, and when I'm ready to pay at the checkout counter, I just give 'em the finger! Someday, the whole world might work this way...
