Re: walking
I HOPE SOOOOOOOOOOO
OK back to physical walking Even greater benefits can come from brisk walking. Dr. Carl Caspersen of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta, Georgia, said: "Going from being sedentary to walking briskly for a half hour several days a week can drop your risk [of disease] dramatically." And what is so good about walking is that people of all ages and practically all health levels can do it. Moreover, it doesn’t require special training or athletic skill—only a good pair of shoes. and yes i think we also lose a bit of our fat as well |

Re: walking
Mee.. Walking -is- the best fitness anyone can do, as it uses pretty much everything lol. And it is at your own pace, so unlike running you can do it with comfort and not over stressing yourself. Although when me and my beLoved go on dog walks she tends to be jogging most of the time to keep up with me... I am terrible at forgetting her pace.

Mee your brethren been walking in my neighborhood. I've been getting the comic books. They haven't been lucky enough to catch me at home yet. They always like sitting on the couch where they look straight at the banner over my shoulder during our conversations.... And as they look at their watches and have an intense desire to get back to their 'walking' I say, "But what about this, I have another question!" |

Re: walking
While visible symbols have always been a feature of non-Biblical religions, they were absent from Christianity at its beginning.
As in the first century C.E., so today, true Christians must conform to the Scriptural standard: "We are walking by faith, not by sight."—2 Cor. 5:7 give me an inch and i will take a mile ![]() |

Re: walking
Is the fish a truly Christian symbol?
According to The Interpreter’s Dictionary of the Bible, fish frequently appear in ancient pagan symbolism, often apart from water scenes. "In such cases," notes this reference work, "it would seem to have symbolic significance, possibly to represent deity, power, fecundity, etc." The same publication further notes that certain Jews adopted use of the fish symbol from pagan religious customs, adding: "It is probable that the considerations mentioned [in this regard] account in part for the appearance of the fish in the art of the oldest Christian catacombs. How early the Greek word for ‘fish’ (ichthýs) came to be interpreted as a cipher for ‘Jesus Christ, Son of God, Savior’ . . . we do not know; but once this identification was made, the fish became a standard Christian symbol." The Bible, however, sets forth no visible symbol for Christianity. Christians today, therefore, must be on guard not to adopt such a symbol. |
