Although simplistic I have always liked the fact that "a Christian is one who not only believes in God, but believes God." After all the name was first given externally to identify those who "preached Christ and Him crucified" to pay the price of their rebeliion and shortcomings before God. God said this was His son ...

Just to clear things up (as to why I posted the question that way)... I was debating with a co-worker about diesels. I claimed they were cleaner-burning than gas engines.

Unlikely. Ammunition is not as dangerous when simply burned as it is when fired from a gun.

While this may cause small pieces of brass to fly arou...
