But I dont want to get into that.  If you really want to read a good book, you should read a book by C.S. Lewis called "Mere Christianity".  It is absolutely amazing, and it was written by a man who throughout most of his life was an atheist himself.Just a sidenot as a case for Chrsit: I was in history lecture the other day and we were talking about the early Roman Catholic Church and their belief that the earth was the center of the universe.  Ok, so the church did believe this, I admit, but then he went on to talk about how the Bible says that the earth was the center of the universe and he quoted a passage from Joshua in which Joshua commands the sun to stand still.  Now, my professor had inferred from the fact that since Joshua commanded the sun to stand still, then this obviously means that the sun rotates around the earth, right?  Haha.  I found this hilarious, because it shows how people twists things to make them say what they want.  Further, I went to biology lecture right after and my teacher mentioned the exact same thing.  Pretty bizarre I thought.  So when I got back to my dorm I did a little research on it myself.  In the book of Joshua, Joshua is fighting a battle and he asked the Lord for more sunlight so that they can finish and win the battle.  Joshua commands the sun to stand still, and God does this for him.  Well it turns out, there are accounts from the Chinese, Egyptians, Incans, Perus, and Native Americans (prolly more but that was all I could find with the time I had) in which there was a time that the sun stood in the sky for 2 days.  Just as it says in the Bible.  The Native American account specifically talked about the sun rising early in the mornign and then staying there.  I thought this pretty convincing...case for Christ? You decide.  Just some things to throw out there.</blockquote>
