    Are you an atheist?

    Brian - i admire your tenacity, and i think the duration and response of this thread proves one thing - we are a whole lot more concerned about the possibility of the existence of God than the average atheist would let on........

    Are you an atheist?

    Colin - you are right that comment will help it on! Well I am sure there are "scam" preachers out there. What about "scam" doctors, pirate software, counterfeit money, fraudulent bankers, fake rolex watches etc etc. Do they invalidate the real originals?

    Are you an atheist?

    Brian - if God is a puppeteer and this world is his stage, then agreed, he is failing. Then he is responsible for every diaster, every crime, everything. Ultimate evil being i guess. Unless..... He is not in control. Just as a father does not control his 50 yr old son...Just as the Queen does...

    Are you an atheist?

    Brian - ok, would you allow me to tell a story: Imagine that you are a top watchmaker in the swiss mountains. You give your prize watch to your son, who goes through a horrific marriage, a divorce and somehow the watch ends up in the ex-wife's care. Care is a generous word here...she has no...

    Are you an atheist?

    Brian - yes you are right - it is proof of his existence that is required. Sometimes proof is subtle. Every child has a mother. Every creation has a creator.

    Are you an atheist?

    Hi Vassago....thanks for the reply...so are we in agreement that the conclusions of the scientific /educated world change from one generation to the next? (i think thats what you are saying). That is one good reason to question how anyone can disprove the existence of God, and somehow think that...

    Are you an atheist?

    Here is a question: If everyone in the world was an atheist and could intelligently disprove the existence of God.....would that actually mean that God did not exist? Does God only exist if we think he does? Or if we can prove he does? If God is real......then no amount of thinking or arguing...

    Access 2013 apd alternative

    Thanks for your advice Pat. To clarify: For performance and scalability, we are keeping the back end tables in SQL server. Not to mention all the procedures and functions in the back end which we dont want to re-write. So really its a matter of deciding what to do with the adp client. With the...
