This Year's Valentines Movie
On Valentines Day this year, the movie to see was "Endless Love." I went to see it with my friend Celeste Pate, and we loved it! Unknown when I went to see it, it's a remake of a 1981 "Endless Love." Critics say that it wasn't necessary to remake the beloved 1981 movie, but that the director Shana Feste did a very nice job. She didn't do too much or too little. The movie is about a somewhat forbidden romance. Two teenagers go through high school having never met, but they begin dating the day after graduation. Jade is the main female character, and her brother died while she was in high school so she never lived out the full experience. David makes it worth while during the summer while they are dating, giving her the best summer she had had in a while. The dad doesn't think David is a good influence on his daughter because he isn't planning to go to college yet has an impeccable SAT score. However, Jade's mom adores David and thinks he is a great guy for her. David and Jade continue their forbidden relationship with flying colors. It is rare, but they do have some rocky moments. the father even got a restraining order against David causing Jade to go off to college while he stays in their small town. A semester into college, she comes back, meets David, and they run off together to watch her other older brother elope. when they get back in town, suspenseful events occur and they all live happily ever after...

THE CREATION DEBATE
"I Still Believe in God"
I agree with Michael J. Murray more than I expected to. I just think it does not matter as much anymore. Creation plays a role in the Bible, but I do not see it as the defining line between Christians and Evolutionists. I appreciate the fact that Murray acknowledges other people's views, but he doesn't let it affect him. I want to be the type of person that can listen to whatever anyone has to say about a topic, yet not get frustrated when it isn't exactly like mine. I am planning to live a life of living as Christ rather than arguing about how we got here on earth. Yes, how we came into existence matters, but it is not a necessity in your faith. I am a Christian that does not enjoy arguing over minute parts in Scripture. I appreciate hearing the fact that Ham and Nye argued in a civilized manner because if there comes a situation in which you cannot void an argument, it needs to be controlled and relaxed. We should never offend the other person or yell in an immature manner. There is much more to life than how we got here. The fact is that we are here, and we need to live every moment as if it could be our last.
