Subject: What To Shut Your Mind Against |
Bible Note: It's not so much to scold any one person, as it is to say "Lets just answer the question, and not point people to search engines." I simply feel that we are getting way too impersonal. You ask about satellite radio, I could say go to xmfan.com and read for yourself, but I won't, although www.xmfan.com is an excellent resource. In my opinion XM is better than Sirius because: 1) Sirius has Howard Stern, is there any better reason for a Christian to have XM? 2) Sirius has a gay/lesbian channel, reason #2 for a Christian to have XM. 3) I've had XM since 9/11/2002 well within their first year of service when they had fewer than 80,000 total subscribers and have watched them grow and improve. 4) I really like the line up of channels on XM. the 40's, 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's all have their own special channels and play only music from their own era. Sirius combines several together. 5) I like a lot of easy listening music, XM has several, ch 24-Sunny and Ch 71-Watercolors are the best, but ch 27-Cinamagic has wonderful soundtracks that you can't hear anywhere else 6) Local (if you live in a MAJOR city) traffic and weather reports on XM. 7) a 24 hour 7 day a week national emergency channel on ... ch 247... 24 7 get it? 8) Xm's birds are in stationary orbit, just like DirecTv or Dish network. No hunting to find signals. Sirius uses 3 birds that are in constant motion. Two are active at any one time the third is down below the equator. Tracking the signal is harder for Sirius receivers to maintain a lock. 9) XM has a huge network of terristeral repeters which, in big cities, help keep you from being blacked out when unable to see the bird because of buildings, parking garages etc. I like being helpful to people, and I hoped that helped, btw, in your opinion, why did the LORD say "lets make man in our image"? I have my opinion, but I really don't have time to read thru a bunch of posts here at work.
