Well I once wrote an essay on this...if you really approach this question from the point of a social thing then I can say that the perception of God has evolved with the needs of the people, though this might not be right, neither is it encouraged even as there is this danger that believing in God and going to church, etc, is just an oppurtunity for us to feel all warm and fuzzy inside. On the other hand, if you approach this from the spiritual angle, you have to realise that God has to be a just God at the same time as a loving God, and in the past before Jesus came along and died for our sins He had to punish us for what we did, cause we did sin. it was only through following what He said that there was a possibility of being saved...like Abraham and Noah, etc, even though Jesus wasn't there yet what they did was pleasing to God's eye cause they did what He asked them to. Then Jesus came along and died for us...that we are spared from the punishment for our sins, as He has borne all the sins for us. So really it is not that God has changed, it's just that other aspects of Him are clearer now that He does not punish with thunder and lightning all the time (sorry, figure of speech).

Joses stop flattering yourself with your love guru talk. In my opinion as compared to the guys in my class (whose tendencies are suspect) you have a long way to go. Ha. And Jonathan you can dance? You?! We'll watch on prom and then we'll laugh so hard we'll roll on the floor.

Sorry my brain feels roasted after the bout of fever on Thurs and Fri...felt horrible before and after the Bio paper (but thank God not during) Let's see...9 down, 10 more (including S papers) to go!
