+/**
+ * @author Peter Swanson
+ * A personal note from me: Jesus Christ has changed my life so much it blows my mind. I say this because
+ *                  today, religion is thought of as something that you do or believe and has about as
+ *                  little impact on a person as their political stance. But for me, God gives me daily
+ *                  strength and has filled my life with the satisfaction that I could never find in any
+ *                  of the other things that I once looked for it in. 
+ * If your interested, heres verse that changed my life:
+ *      Rom 8:1-3: "Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus,
+ *                  because through Christ Jesus, the law of the Spirit who gives life has set
+ *                  me free from the law of sin (which brings...) and death. For what the law 
+ *                  was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending
+ *                  His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh to be a sin offering. And so He
+ *                  condemned sin in the flesh in order that the righteous requirements of the 
+ *                  (God's) law might be fully met in us, who live not according to the flesh
+ *                  but according to the Spirit."
