Why is Los Angeles and not The Angels? Colorado and not Reddish land? Santa Cruz & not Saint Cross?

Well, Mexico used to own everything south of Washington state....

I doubt that Moreno would move the Angels.  They have a very large and devoted fan base in Orange County, a popular, comfortable stadium in a prime location, and are a major fixture in the Southern California community.  And consider this, what other large, well-known Southern California city other than Los Angeles or San Diego is there for him to move the team to?  Remember, the whole name-change plan was to align the organization more closely with the Los Angeles area.\n\nPersonally, I don't especially like the name-change, but I can understand the reasons for doing it.  Considering where the Angels are, maybe the Orange County Angels of Anaheim would've been a little better!  Not much, though!

Because the Holy Spirit did not inspire the cardinals to vote for you.\n\nWith love in Christ.

Christianity kind of messes up on this bit of theology. According to them, there was a war in heaven between Satan and God, and Satan got cast to Earth.  At the same time, they say that heaven is a wonderful, joyous place of eternal bliss that we should all strive to attain. I posit that these two concepts are incompatible. It means that there is sin and rebellion in heaven, and if there was one war, there might be others that Christians don't know about. Why bother going to a place that is no better than Earth??\n\nAnd yes, the word "lucifer" does NOT refer to Satan at all. It is a LATIN word, not a Hebrew name, and was used to translate the words "morning star," or "son of the morning."  It is actually a reference to the planet Venus, which is very bright and can be seen in the early dawn sky; it precedes the sun and so is called the "bringer of light" and similar titles in many cultures. This title is found in Isaiah ch.14, in a prophecy about the king of Babylon. It has nothing to do with Satan, but is a poetic reference to how the king aspired to greatness and would be cast down to the dirt. Christians take it literally, but if they would actually READ the entire chapter--and the one preceding it--they would see that the context can in no way refer to an angelic being. It is all about Israel and Babylon. Funny how Christians always accuse us skeptics of taking things out of context, when they do it all the time, in order to make scriptures mean what THEY want them to mean, and not what they actually say!

So Cal based.  They felt they were misisng something, so the auditioned lead singers.  Chester Bennington flew in from AZ to audition, and he was perfect.  THey got rejected by every label before getting signed to WB.

Can you say L.A. Saints?

It isnt about the region of LA supporting a team, trust me, there are enough people in that metropolis that would support a team.\n\nActually, UncleDaddy was fairly close in his opening line about "if you build it, they will come."  The biggest problem is the cost to build it.  Not that it would be so expensive in relation to other new stadiums/domes, but that the people are not willing to take the tax burden that other cities have accepted to build the stadium.\n\nIf the fans ever do accept the tax burden (highly unlikely, CA just shot down the Sacramento Kings for new stadium for something like 7th time on recent ballot) then the NFL will quickly act to move or expand a team to LA.

no one knows the literal number of angels that got cast down. we only know that 1/3 of the angel population was cast down. so however you got that information, it is not founded on anything biblical.

I, being an Angels' fan, am very familiar with the M's.  I thought last year was a total fluke.  I think the M's have the lineup to put up some runs and now that they've obtained some pitching (Washburn), they may be back in the hunt for the West.  I am upset my Halos haven't done much in the offseason besides letting go of two big contributors (Molina, Washburn) so hopefully they have a good plan with the farm system.  I still think the M's lineup is probably better than the Angels'.  But then again, what's on paper doesnt count. Play ball!

Christ did not start any religion.  Jesus was Jewish.  It was Saint Paul that founded the Christian Faith.  Plus, Roman Catholicism was not the first Christian Denomination.  It was Serian Orthodox that was first.  \n\nIt sounds like someone has some "issues" with Non-Catholics.

They still exist you can go there on sundays at the marriott in Irvine CA . Or if you like where ever you are from you can go into the directory on on google, and do  search for La church of christ and you should find more information i hope this helps have a great day.

I don't agree with that conclusion.\n\nIf what you said were true, then it would follow that states with four seasons would, similarly, be more progressive, correct?\n\nHowever, Southern California is a desert, and also one of the more progressive areas in America.\n\nI belive you're confusing cause and effect.  Many of the countries in similar regions (and thus with similar weather patterns) will share political and societal ideas.  However, the two are not related.

God doesn't like baseball--it is AMERICA's favorite pasttime, not GOD's. haha.  \n\nHe much prefers American football--he told me so last fall when I was at church:  "you shouldn't be here...you should be watching the Charger's game"\n\n:-D

No L.A. does not need a football team. The NFL has been growing exponentially since it left L.A. Expansion would just lead to unbalanced schedules and there's no reason to move anybody to L.A.

Because California likes to be the experimental Utopia of the United States. And it does seem to be two separate groups agitating for both. \n\nI think California in the 70's and 80's used to have a lot of conservatives who leaned libertarian. Now a lot of them have moved elsewhere (Colorado has more than 1 million people living here who were born in Caliornia) or have been overtaken by those liberals who boreder on socialism.
