    My ISP is also my webhoster, and they provide a very basic visitor stat list. I was looking at it the other day, and realized that one of the referring sites was a porn site. When I checked it out, I couldn't find anything on there that could link to me. Does anyone know how this could be?

    I think it's pretty disturbing considering my site is about babies.

    I would imagine that it's just your log files getting spammed.

    Are all the referrals coming from the same IP addy?

    If so, block it. :)

    Referal spam - its a way to get people who check their stats to visit a site.

    Webmasters know that some people check their stats regularly and that you are likely to visit sites that are sending you traffic to check them out for a link or whatever.

    So they visited you from their site so they showed up in your referer list - then you checked them out

    EDIT: doh! Snipped

    Doesn't sound like a proffitable endeavor... so you trick someone into visiting your site. What is the potential gain for the spammer? Do they really generate revenue this way?

    This idea with hell doesn't make sense to me. If Satan is fighting with God and likes to get as many followers as possible, why should Satan punish his own followers by sending them to hell. I think it makes more sense that Hell should be as nice as heaven (or even nicer with more interesting people), so people are motivated to follow Satan.:rolleyes:

    Otherwise the whole idea of Heaven and Hell becomes another version of carrot and stick. People who will not chose the path by stories of heaven, will be scared to choosing the same path by scare of Hell.;)

    An atheist was walking through the woods.

    "What majestic trees! What powerful rivers! What beautiful animals!", he said to himself.

    As he was walking alongside the river, he heard a rustling in the bushes behind him. He turned to look. He saw a 7-foot grizzly charge towards him. He ran as fast as he could up the path. He looked over his shoulder and saw that the bear was closing in on him. He looked over his shoulder again, and the bear was even closer. He tripped & fell on the ground. He rolled over to pick himself up but saw that the bear was right on top of him, reaching for him with his left paw and raising his right paw to strike him.

    At that instant the Atheist cried out: "Oh my God!!!"

    Time stopped. The bear froze. The forest was silent.

    As a bright light shone upon the man, A Voice came out of the sky. "You deny My Existence for all these years, teach others I don't exist and even credit Creation to cosmic accident. Do you expect Me to help you out of this predicament? Am I to count you as a believer?"

    The atheist looked directly into the light, "It would be hypocritical of me to suddenly ask You to treat me as a Christian now, but perhaps You could make the BEAR a Christian?"

    "Very Well," said The Voice.

    The light went out. The sounds of the forest resumed.

    And the bear dropped his right paw, brought both paws together, bowed his head, and spoke: "Lord bless this food, which I am about to receive from Thy bounty through Christ Our Lord, Amen."

    Jerry Garcia died.

    He wakes up and finds himself on a stage on which a number of instruments are set up. A door offstage opens and in walk Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Brian Jones, John Lennon, Otis Redding, and Buddy Holly.

    Each musician picks up his favorite instrument and begins tuning up.

    He walks up to Jimi and says, "Man, so this is what heaven is like."

    Jimi looks at him and says, "Heaven? You think this is heaven?"

    At that moment, Karen Carpenter walks in, takes her seat behind the drums, and calls out, "Okay guys, 'Close to You'. One, two, three, four . . . "

    An atheist was spending a quiet day fishing when suddenly his boat was attacked by the Loch Ness monster. In one easy flip, the beast tossed him and his boat high into the air. Then it opened its mouth to swallow both. As the man sailed head over heels, he cried out, "Oh, my God! Help me!"

    At once, the ferocious attack scene froze in place, and as the atheist hung in mid-air, a booming voice came down from the clouds, "I thought you didn't believe in Me!"

    "Come on God, give me a break!," the man pleaded. "Two minutes ago I didn't believe in the Loch Ness monster either."

    Hell isn't satans funhouse, it is more of a prison for him and his followers (fallen angels) He doesn't rule in hell like the cartoons show. God made hell for satan to go to when He is done dealing with him. Satan also isn't some freaky red dude with horns, but is more likely a very beautiful (fallen ) angel, I believe this is part of how he deceives people.

    Minstrel, too bad you didn't come up with those, but they are good. LOL

    According to this description:

    1- God tortures prisoners.

    2- This prison is based on fed-clubs for white color criminal, so Satan can get in and out as he pleases.

    3- After couple of billion years, God still has some kind of unfinished business with Satan, I wonder what that is?

    4- God sends a beautiful angel to deceive people, so they will do something against God's law and then will send them to prison. I know this practice is illegal on earth but may be is not in heaven.:rolleyes:
