do you know the saying there's three sides to every story the first person's side the second person side and then the truth? God's is the last one. |

God is on the side of "life". He gives it and then the rest is up to us. |

Topath: Yeeeeeeeeeeepeeyepie claps hand and jumps in air ... no claps jumps and hands in air ... no, Claps air and hands in jumps. no ... Claps jumps and air in hands. no ... Claps chairs and ... hands ... thumps ... frans ... frumps jumpin a jeep no ... jeep in a jump ... cheep ... cheap ... chumpms ,,, chair ... (yayns) Megmeg I think I finally figured this out. there are a total of seven sides. they are: inside, outside front side, back side, sunny side, bottom side, and top side. They gave me a Mopes strip, which I was told was invented by some person named side. Before side, there were no sides, and people just had to do the best they could. But then Side came along, invented these cool things, and because there was no name for what he had made, the people called them sides. And so now, because of Side, we have sides. So should I go on typing or maybe go to bed? |

Jaime, as there is a God for some, and alternatives in creation for others, I think that if you should go to bed, to sleep, to dream, then you might dream that there is a God for some, and alternatives in creation for others.... and just know that you were created with a spirit that seeks on for the best, always. Probably like He did. |

The concept of which side God sounds irrelevant, because God itself was the creator of both good and evil. But most people associate Lucifer with Evil. Now if we're talking something along the Lines of a comedy, than God would be good with a split personallity. Only with a Bosom Buddies twist. |

concrete rose" Yes, this is indeed so. Lucifer gets his name probably from the Latin Lux meaning Light, that is, he is an angel of light. The reason Lucifer got a bad press is that, in Isaiah 53, the story is related of how Lucifer was once a "good" angel but then grew vain and wanted to usurp the role of God, and for the sin of vanity he, with a bunch of rebel archangels, were cast down from Heaven to the Earth, where they have been doing mischief ever since. No, I do not believe this was an actual historical event, but an allegory and moral about the dangers of vanity. It would be interesting to learn the origin of the words "Satan" and "devil." I know that deity comes from the Latin deus, and have noted that "God" is related to the German "got" so they must have a common root. |
