Entrances AreNOT Modern
Hello,
Back in the old days we lived in small communities, where you would walk to the market area, and carry home your daily, meals-to-be- prepared groceries. There was no refrigeration etc. It was on this basis entrances to the home were contrived. Now many of us get paid twice or once a month, and some people get bonuses every few months and so on. This has changed our bringing-home-the-bacon methods. Now we use huge vehicles into which we pack huge amounts of groceries. I do monthly shopping and pack a truck. I drive 30 miles to my favourite store and back = 60 miles for the “monthly” shopping, but through the month, pick up some things locally. As you can see due to the change in food packaging and shopping habits, we must change the entrances to homes. We will need a glorified loading dock of sorts, from now on, on newly built homes, and itwill have to be something somewhat inexpensive. Here are examples of specs: The steps and/or part of the walkway to the door will need to be under roof/cover. Youwill need a dock to place groceries before opening front door; the dock will, of course, need to be under roof/cover. If thereare steps to the door, they too will need to be under roof/cover: in other words you will walk up your steps, to the door - all under roof/cover. The idea is to be able to open your door without having to stand in the rain to do so, but to have been able to first sit down the groceries in a safe, clean, dry place. Sitting groceries down on a dirty, garage floor doesnot compute, therefore thereis no easy way out on this. Truly Truth will set you free: John 8:32 |

My Dad mentioned that concept to me, thirty some years ago.
About that time, someone noticed that cars very rarely caught fire. As such, building codes now include fire wall, self closing door from the garage to the house, adn some other things. To build a pass through kitchen cabinet would lose most of the fire resistance. Years ago, I took a fire protection course. We learned the #1 cause of home fires was smoking, #2 in frequency was heating devices, though heating devices were the #1 cause of damage, as they were usually out of sight. We don't have firewalls around people who smoke in bed, nor self closing bedroom doors. I think that whole thing needs reevaluate. -- Christopher A. Young Learn more about Jesus www.lds.org ..

"You will need a dock to place groceries before opening front door...steps to the door...all under roof/cover....Sitting groceries down on a dirty, garage floor does not compute." At my house, I have a rather unique setup: It's called a "garage with a door into the kitchen". I also have a unique way of getting the groceries into the house without "sitting them down on a dirty garage floor." I carry them directly from the vehicle into the kitchen. Novel...I know...but I'm a trendsetter. Even when I don't want to (or, typically, don't have room to) pull into the garage, I am able to back up to the garage door - which is under an overhang - and unload completely under cover, once again using my radical "carry 'em from the vehicle into the kitchen" relocation technique.

And Frank Warner added his two cents' worth: An atheist would have laughed the LDS missionaries right out of the room, drunk -- er -- filled with the spirit of the lord or not.. Ah, yes, insults: the last resort of those who know nothing about which they speak. If you knew what you were talking about, you'd at least be able to refute Stormin' Mormon's position based on facts, not on your opinion. Have you studied Christianity? (And Stormin' Mormon and I can have our own separate debate about whether or not LDS is Christian.) Are you familiar with the historical contexts of the sacred texts? Have you read any of them in the original languages? I also love how so many critics of faith cite example after example of misdeeds, but neglect the far larger body of evidence of people whose lives were changed for the better, of the sacrifices made to lift up those who were downtrodden, of the sacrifices made. An estimated 20 million Christians were killed in the 20th century because of their faith, but yeah, you want to say Christians are deluded or evil or both. On Jan 31, 12:28*am, Ashton Crusher wrote: Yes, the truth will set you free. *And like the Easter bunny and Santa Claus, there is no "god", no Jesus, none of it. *There's just us. That's the truth. No, that's not the truth, that's your opinion. Yes, there is no scientific proof of the existence of God; nor is there any scientific proof that God does not exist. Your statement is simply your belief, and no matter how often you say it, it doesn't become Truth. Your "truth" is either a lie, or ignorant: there is documented historical evidence for the existence of a man from the Galilee region of Palestine named Yeshua, who was executed by the Romans for sedition, and whose followers claimed he rose from the dead which the leaders at the time were not able to refute. The lesson he don't try to fight knowledge with ignorance and insults. You will lose. |
