    Making Your Family Life Happy, ( The book that did anything but what it said on the cover) recycled this oft repeated comment . page 51 - 1978 printing :-

    Basically, women feel while men think

    It made the brothers smirk and the sisters squirm with anger... actually, writing it down now, it is open to double entendre, but I would not go into that

    "The date 1925 is even more distinctly indicated in scripture than 1914."

    Trek fans on five continents have devoted themselves to learning the fictitious language Klingon, which was featured in Star Trek TV shows and movies. Such extreme behavior does not harmonize with the Bible?s counsel at 1 Peter 1:13

    But in Jehovah?s organization it is not necessary to spend a lot of time and energy in research

    LOL, I do believe that although relatively new, Klingonaase is a real language and has its own dictionary and usage manual. http://www.kli.org/

    Same thing with "Elvish" from the Lord of the Rings. It really is a language, and if learned, can be used to communicate to another . . . not fictitious. http://members.fortunecity.com/caras_galadon/dictionary.htm

    I don't speak either, and I don't know anyone who does, but they remain a real language.

    Self-abuse, unless recognized as something unclean and to be striven against, can easily lead to such practices as fornication, adultery, sodomy and Lesbianism, not to say anything of depriving one's mate of the marriage due.-Jas. 1:14, 15.

    Hee-hee ... their attitudes about it nowadays are not much different!

    Hahahahaha!!!!!! What goofs!!

    13 Therefore, prepare your minds for action; be self-controlled; set your hope fully on the grace to be given you when Jesus Christ is revealed.

    Man, those Trekkies have no self-control!! I can sure think of a lot of examples of "extreme behavior"....but surely nothing can compare to speaking a fictitious language for fun!!!

    Men have made atomic powerhouses?thermonuclear reactors?and their output of energy is greater than that by any other means. But they have to be monitored constantly for fear of a devastating explosion.
