For us to know that something is absolute, isn't this in comparison to non-absolute things/phenomena? Then, if this is the case, our absolute is relative. e.g. Can absolute zero temp exist without other temperatures?

Christianity and Buddhism |
|
There is, and can be, no relationship between Christianity and Buddhism. Christianity is not some sort of feel-good moral philosophy, but the word Christian mean prisoner or captive of Christ. Jesus was not a moral change-agent but the one and only very Son of God with a divine purpose to fulfill. Through His Father's love He was sent to die for our transgressions against God so that the Father's purpose to have eternal fellowship with us might be fulfilled. The price for sin is death but whoever believes in Jesus and His purpose as God's Son will be saved from that eternal certainty. Call on the name of the Lord and you will saved. God's Word also points out that there is no after-life except by salvation through Jesus Christ. It's very specific also, that we cannot return to try again or earn merit points here. We can however, no matter how bad our life, even up yo our last breaths, accept the offer God made through Jesus to be forgiven and to Join Him as an adopted son or daughter of God. For those who do it earlier, salvation brings the enabling power of the Holy Spirit and the possibility of a transformed life including divine healing. The proof of all this is not only in my own life but the countless changed lives and testimony.

"For the record, Yeshua (Jesus) claimed to be THE Way, THE Truth, THE Life, and that there was no other way to His Father God, but through Himself."
hmmm...I think that was originally found on an Egyptian pharaohs cartouche(spelling?).....a few hundred years before Jesus walked the earth and considered a pagan saying by the modern church..but I may be wrong.

update on Living Water install |
|
Well I've tried about all I can. Other puppys usually work for me, but on this box (all in one gateway AMD 400), this one does not - still failing after installing unionfs, with no errors. It's not ram, or cache, or peripherals. Tried resizing swap too, in case part of it was corrupt (still suspicious). I do have a similar hdd sitting in a laptop I could swap with - but I'm also wondering if there is some little part of this build that is incompatible with the K6/2 chip. Yeah, unlikely I know. Not giving up just yet. Ttuuxxx - how'd your data recovery go? catch up on any sleep?

I have a sneaky feeling that its the hard drive Master boot record, I think why not try the other hard drive you have laying around, Ya i did get some sleep but my wife Mrs.ttuuxxx was a bit ticked,lol she'll build a bridge and get over it,lol
As my data recovery goes, i took my spare 250gig sata and started transferring files to it, but there are tons of hard drive block errors, last count 400+ so some things will be corrupts but i will get 98% back:) But its slow and for once hiren's boot cd just wouldn't cut it, The funny thing, is that the only thing that actually worked was "Living water 2.17" cd which i ran live and just dragged the windows folders from one hd to the spare one:) well that makes me smile even if I'll be sorting data for days, grrrrrrrrr
well tell me how you go with the hard drive swap and if that doesn't work we'll have to get some external help. call in the big guns. lol

Fear Not
Admitting possibilities may be right for you
I have to admit the righteous may be wrong
because their condition does not allow for
possibilities. (Anyone notice that?)
It may be wrong to do this on their behalf.
In my journey I have been fortunate enough to meet
a Christian nun attending a Buddhist retreat,
a Methodist minister practicing meditation
and numerous prayerful Christians who found their
understanding enhanced through techniques they
found in Buddhism. Very open and pleasant people.
Righteous without making a rite of it . . .
It is perfectly possible to try and use a Christian
inspired distro such as 'Living Waters' without being crucified
or practice (appropriate) forms of meditation
without becoming a Buddha . . .
Be Kind (it might catch on)

When it comes to "Living Water 2.17" I am more than happy for any faith / religion to use it and give some sort of input back, positive or negative. Its all good, leave room for improvements which is always the way to go.

well thanks for everything and glad and I'm glad everything is working.

strange_kiwi pc "it hangs after installing unionfs Sad It allows me to type stuff - but doesn't seem to do anything - does respond to cntr alt del reboot." works fine on his other, also happens with other derivatives, but runs of cds sometimes and works slow with frugal installs, I think its his MBR, what do you think?

When you are raw, cooking is no problem.
I like to jump in with a ladle which I use to stir
from within . . .
Of your two possibilities - I choose the third . . .

Lol, I can't believe how far this thread has gone on , well, this thread. Can you expect Christians to lie still when you attach what they believe (and if you have been in contact with Christians you know what we believe)?
If there was a Buddhist's distro thread here, I wouldn't come over there stirring up the pot, I might have questions yes but purposley raising a ruckus no.

Apparently you know only enough to mock my God or you would never make such a statement;
John 8:58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.
Colossians 1:16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
I can quote scripture all day long showing Jesus is God and was in the begining, but if you don't believe it it does no good, but it raises the question, what are you doing on a thread aimed at Christians if not just to cause trouble?

did you happen to notice the word some?
some others are quite pleasant and do not continually remind the rest of us that we are damned
and there are even some who recognize that a myth is a myth and that the myths of others are as valid as their own
we will all be surprised when we die, even you...
btw, puppy is not a christian distro
it is for everyone
[sorely tempted to do a 'hound of hell' puplet though]
