Church club Light My dads not stupid enough to do drugs ...... SOMEONE WHO KNOWS ALOT ABOUT DRUGS HELP ME !!?
Ok so my dad went to the club saturday came home sunday morning hypocrite *COUGH *COUGH ! Anyways .. He was in church then he got light headed and started sweating all of a sudden he was instant within 30 sec. just dreched in sweat like someone poured a bucket of water over his head everyone was staring ... We never knew why that happend !!. I was assuming someone slipped something in his drink or something like that what do you think happend or was it something else and if it was a drug slipped in his drink what do you think it was that would do something like that !
When my Dad had his first heart attack he broke out instantly in sweat like someone had poured a bucket of water over his head. He was extremely white and light headed. How old is your dad. Sometimes your body will tell you things that you should really listen to. Like, don't try to be in your 20's again by staying out all night. Whatever it was, your dad should go see his doctor.

Concrete Lighting Poles
Cement or concrete lighting poles have experienced a recent surge in popularity among property developers, civil engineers, architects, and general contractors. People have begun to realize that concrete, in spite of its reputation as a purely industrial substance, can be transformed into a lighting pole that in all respects is aesthetically superior to carbonized steel and more resistant to erosion, collision, and vandalism. The wide range of decorative styles, colors, and diversity of geometric designs make concrete lighting poles one of the most versatile items to add to a proposal or site development plan, and the extra strength they offer makes them a recession proof, maintenance free investment that will outlast steel and wood for decades. RLLD Commercial Lighting inventories an enormous variety of designs, styles, mounts, and heights to anticipate the many needs of parks, sports facilities, educational institutes, research facilities, corporate office parks, churches, and retail centers.
Concrete or cement light poles offer a number of competitive advantages over carbonized steel that benefit both the contractor and the client. Cement lighting poles are easier to install, and they can be mounted in either the ground itself, as we often see in university campuses and public parks, or they can be installed in base mounts bolted to concrete. This makes them exceptionally versatile and more appropriate for environments where natural terrain and human architecture are intermingled. For instance, a country club often has elaborate landscaping in front of the club house, through which a driveway runs leading up to the clubhouse. Portions of this landscape may feature sidewalks or a rotunda area with seating around a small fountain. Concrete poles featuring the same basic model design and finish color, but measuring different heights, can be used to light both the roadway and the landscape with an aesthetically harmonious and more balanced presentation than carbonized steel poles would generally offer.
This blend of function and visual décor is critical for high-end lighting projects where an establishment's image and presentation is tightly intertwined with its function and purpose. The greater range of decorative freedom offered by concrete lighting poles makes them appropriate additions to the landscapes and parking areas around any facility known for sophistication and fine taste. Architects designing museums, five star hotels, fine restaurants, and resorts can match certain architectural keynotes to the geometric patterns reflected in our many pole designs. In some cases, this works to extend certain themes prevalent in building architecture into surrounding general site lighting. This is a very effective way of establishing an atmosphere of authority and power around certain structures such as school administration offices, government buildings, military headquarters, and courthouses.
Because concrete poles do not rust, they do not need to be replaced like corroding metal poles. The concrete used to make light poles is much stronger than steel, and it is also stronger than the typical concrete you walk on. It is actually compacted concrete which is cast at high temperatures around a steel core. As the material cools, it compresses into a sturdy, flexible mount that is capable of withstanding higher winds speeds than other types of lighting poles. In fact, the law requires that lighting poles that are over 50 feet in height must be made from concrete. Metal-even the strongest of carbonized steel-cannot guarantee stability in high winds at this altitude. Concrete light poles are the only options in these environments, which is why sports, theme parks, and public recreation areas use concrete lighting poles to ensure full compliance with AASHTO, ACI, ASTM and UBC loading requirements.
Finally, because the surface of compressed concrete is so hard, it is also virtually impossible to deface, so areas prone to heavy vandalism should strongly consider the cost effectiveness of something that will withstand even a deliberate attempt at sabotage. If you or your client would like more information about the benefits of concrete lighting poles, call an RLLD Commercial Lighting specialist. Serious inquiries and clients receive complimentary consultation, and casual inquiries can be answered for a small, reasonable fee.
This is the problem with fundamentalism and extremism. I haven't met many fundamentalist Christians who were very tolerant, understanding, charitable or kind. In fact the tendency in this legalistic group is to be quite the opposite.. They lack normal social graces many times too.
My experience with Southern and Independent Baptists is very negative, so much bigotry in the ranks.
I am not so sure traditional church will “die out”. For one, while there are all of us here in the blogosphere that seem to be searching for something else, there seems to still be a LOT of people who like things in church Just Fine. They WANT church-as-club. They want to be able to go an hour a week and come out feeling good about themselves and know they have done their “spiritual duty” and are raising their kids right, and now can get on with their day off. After all, many were raised in just this way, and so were their parents. It is all they know. And while we can say the younger generations won't put up with that, there are many young adults that end up wanting to have the same life their parents had – maybe not in their twenties, but in their thirties and forties, when they start to settle down and raise families. (Count me weird, I guess, 'cause here I am looking for something new and different at 46.)
I guess I am pessimistic because most people seem not to want to be challenged, to be missional, to stretch their boundaries and comfort zones. Maybe I am mistaken – I hope I am. But I think ultimately the traditional church will be there, just like the Republican and Democratic parties will most likely continue to be the two main “choices”. I have resigned myself to being in a “splinter party” both in religion and politics. So be it. That doesn't mean there's no worth to challenging the status quo. Our vote is not “lost” no matter what the mainstream tries to tell us in either church or the polls.
So, that rant out of the way, how do I think church will look in the future? That's a really good question! I don't think I have an answer. Will home churches continue? Will it be some sort of distributed experience? I guess the image in my head, for which there is almost no existing model (besides perhaps the Salvation Army) is something that merges church and mission at the same time. Something that brings back the early Church where all were together regardless of class or circumstance. But don't take that as some utopian vision. I have sincere doubts that such can ever be more than a marginal exercise.
