reedit: added comparisons for 6 through 8

the july/august issue of hoop magazine lists the most unstoppable duos currently in the nba as:

1) tony parker/tim duncan(compared them to bob cousy/bill russell)
2) steve nash/amare stoudamire(compared them to john stockton/karl malone)
3) chauncey billups/rip hamilton(compared them to isaiah thomas/joe dumars)
4) josh howard/dirk nowitski(compared them to larry bird/kevin mchale)
5) dwyane wade/shaq(compared them to magic johnson/kareem abdul jabbar)
6) allen iverson/carmelo anthony(walt frazier/earl monroe)
7) tracy macgrady/yao ming(julius erving/moses malone)
8) deron williams/carlos boozer(gary payton/shawn kemp)

i still don't remember the exact order of everything past number 4, but i'm fairly sure that's the order.

of course, they listed the most unstoppable duo of all time as john stockton and karl malone.

i was going to list a bunch of links to cnn.com, but then decided against it. there's just too many. i will say this. for some reason, the latest news today, almost entirely, is just really screwed up. they're all really small news reports, but still weird. go and check it out for yourself; included stories such as:

-2 news helicopters collide filming a high speed chase
-nasa allowing drunk astronauts to fly space shuttle
-something about hilary clinton and cleavage
-$28K taken from collection plates(gj roman catholics and new jersey!)
-public school halting muslim prayer time
-aquafina admits their water is tap water
-nicole richie sentenced to 90 days in jail(what is up with women in the spotlight these days? lindsey lohan? britney spears? are they trying to outdo each other?)

news articles on cnn:

couple loses 580 pounds combined

1 south korean hostage killed; 22 remain

strangely enough, both articles are slightly tied to Christianity.

ok, it's been a long time since i've said something spiritual on this website. part of that is because i don't have internet at home(legally), so all the profound thinking is done AWAY from the saratoga library cpu. and that means a lot of text written.

but there was something short that i thought to myself about this sunday. and that was, why was it so much easier to convince nonbelievers back then? standing in front of a crowd and preaching the word seemed to work so well in the book of The Acts of the Apostles. so why doesn't it work today?

and then i thought about 2nd Timothy 2:13, which stated:

"But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived."

in other words, there's more layers to crack. all that so-called knowledge of this world has "puffeth up" this generation.
