Well, I haven't studied ALL other religions on the planet, but there is one that stands out as different than all the others I have looked at. All the religions I have studied require sacrifice to their god(s), except Christianity. So far, that's the only religion where a God sacrificed himself for us, instead of the other way around. Because He loves us so much, he says we are worth that price. Do any other gods make that statement, and then back it up by sacrificing themselves, just so we would have the OPTION to choose a relationship with Him?

I know the bible is mostly misused in the world....and Christians give Christ a bad name, but the actual sons of God, don't live by laws that demand anything.
Jesus fulfilled the law. It is finished.
We live in the understanding of who God is, and that He paid a high price for us to be able to call ourselves Sons. I know what my value is, and I know that it's such a high price, that nothing, and no-one could ever pay more. Because of that, I know I am secure as a Son. I can never be purchased away from God.

That means we have the ability to walk around stomping Hell for a living, just like Jesus did, because Jesus is the example of what it looks like to walk in total submission to a good, good Father. It's not about laws that never change, it's about Grace that always abounds, it's about being free from ...everything that tries to control us. We are controlled by nothing, bound by nothing, because we willingly submit to the one thing that gives us the ability to be free from that control -- God.
My God doesn't demand, doesn't control, doesn't require. He just loves me, and wants to hang out with me. He recommends and suggests -- but I choose. Sometimes I still choose my way and usually end up in face down in the mud. But he picks me up, cleans me up, forgives me for not taking his advice, and we carry on.

Don't pick a religion - make a friend! Try it and see. What do you have to lose? The bible already covers all of the updates and revisions. First everything was perfect, then we screwed up. Next there is some 4000 years of showing us what it would take to come back to that perfect relationship, through the Law, Then came Jesus, and the law was fulfilled. Replaced by a ministry of reconciliation. No more righteousness through the law, but through faith in Jesus. That's a pretty big update/revision. 613 laws and 10 commandments -- break 1 and you're toast. Replaced by falling in love with Jesus -- screw up 1 time, and get another chance... There is actually lots of proofs in the statements that the bible makes. Many times, I had to go back to the original greek or hebrew translations to get the meaning of the word that was used, but there are no contradictions, nor anything that can be proven false in the bible. To the contrary, there are many documents that have been discovered throughout the years that corroborate some of the "questionable" statements in the bible.

Not all, but many times the VERY religious people tend to be the modern day pharisees. A thinking person creates 'religion' because they overthink a love affair that blows your mind. They are full of rules to keep you in line, so you don't 'upset' God, but really they just don't know who they are. If they could only see their own value to God, and how much He wants to just sit and talk for a while, they would see that it's not religion that changes a person, it's a relationship with the one true God. I grew up "religious", and all religion ever did for me was convince me I was "just a sinner" .
After I dumped the Christian religion, and pursued a relationship with Jesus, I realized I am NOT "just a sinner", I'm a SON !!I became a real Christian - a little Christlike one.

All the other religions are product of man, but a true man is a product a of personal relationship with his creator, because it allows him to know what he was created for.

jump up and down 20 times?! I'd think they were crazy too. Tell me how amazing their God is, and He's the one that told them to jump up and down 20 times every day?! still crazy...maybe crazier.

This is pretty fitting, since it's 4-20...... There's no high, like the Most High!
1 Cor 4:20 -- The kingdom of God is not in word but in power.

going back to the original question. I can be so sure that I picked the right one, because it doesn't matter what people say, the kingdom of God is visible, active, and powerful. And Jesus changed my life.
so I am SURE that I picked the right one, because I have seen how good God is, and I have experienced the difference in how I relate to and with people. I have seen the effects of the Love of God. I have seen and experienced freedom -- from myself. I used to be pretty hung up on myself. It was all me, me, me. Now that it's all Jesus, Jesus, Jesus...I'm so free from me, I'm free from you.

God loves you, and he thinks you are amazing. Get to know Him, and see if the 'religion' and the 'rules' come from Him.

Hey Anonymous Coward,

        --Or because we were with friends and/or loved ones as they took their last breaths on a hospital bed--

I'm sorry, Bro.
The Devil is a jerk!

from TFA

"We at Byte and Switch are on the trail of the world's biggest SAN, and this article reveals our initial findings."

and this

"Again, this list is meant to be a starting place for further endeavor. If you've got a big SAN story to tell, we'd love to hear it."

oh, and this too

"we present five of the world's biggest SANs:"

notice how everything in TFA clearly says this is not THE 5 BIGGEST SAN's in the world but the 5 largest they have found SO FAR.

I know -- I must be new here, but I'm getting there. I didn't read the whole article, just a few sentences from the first page.
