Just curious about these things...

  Hello again from the Frozen North (Canada)
I was just wondering...how many members are registered with the GCM forums?  When did it start?  Also interested in knowing how many countries are represented here? I know of the US, Canada, England and India for starters. 
Once again I tip my hat off to all of you who work so hard together as a team to make this forum(s) an incredible place for Christians to fellowship together on-line!
Can you imagine the Apostle Paul sitting down to a computer and posting on GCM?! Boy, wouldn't those threads have been something?!! Wouldn't that be a hoot? 
Thanks again and take care...Michael

I stumbled upon it sometime in 2001 probably April or so, long before this format, when I lived in Michigan in a border town with Northern Ontario.

Total members registered with GCM = 2636

The best I can guess according to the admins recorded date of registry the board started around 12/4/2001

I do not know How to figure how many countries are represented here that is something someone else will have to answer.

Another question that I have often pondered is wonder if we could tell if someone from the higher power was to post in responce to some question, would we be able to recognize them from us plain humans? Wonder if Angles have responded and we told them they were wrong in there interpertation?

bvaug...Hi again.  Your comment about angels kind of thrilled me in a surprising way.  You would think that after posting a story about angels I would have thought about that but I did not.  It is not a fanciful pondering...this could very well  happen.  If by chance an angel did post and we basically told him he had it all wrong could he maybe then go  ?!

Anyway bvaug thank you for your efforts here to answer my questions.
Once again, from north of the border,
warm greetings.

I don't use the spellchecker.  I figure I will just torture y'all with my slang and colloquialisms.

Just curious about this Mark...is that why you have zeal for the Lord?

I'm curious about where old Zealand is.

Go to goggle earth and find out

I am in hastings  309a lumsden rd


Aotearoa: Land of the Long White Cloud      (Glory)

Do a goggle on it and find out

We are one of the first to see the new day

If you are over this way     you have a place to stay

Who knows   I just really like his spirit


I love him

Just being reminded of Moses  lately   the more he got.  the more he hungered.  the more he longed just to be with him

He draws all things to himself

He is power

A vortex     the closer you get the stronger the pull

God is light and in him is no darkness

When you look into his face it starts to pull you in and you can see the making of the universe    planets and solar systems

The reflection of creation in his face

He loves the romance    the chase

will you follow , will you chase

we are his children and he is our Father

Hmm... good question.

Apparently, it's part of Denmark... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zealand.

Cool, DCR, thanks!

But wasn't New Zealand created when Maui (the South Pacific deity, not the Hawaiian island) went fishing and caught a giant fish?  The fish became the south island and the canoe the north island?

Don't confuse us with the facts.

Very good      But I like Gods explanation better
