Seriously - is that really a Cadillac? It looks more like a '95 Ford Mondeo to me.

My son finally got his first car

by Tameria2001 in

on saturday my son finally got around to getting his driver's license, and then on monday, he bought his first car.

you might be thinking he is 16 or 17, but you'd be wrong.

he is almost 22 and in his third year of college.

Got my provisional licence on my 17th birthday and passed my test within a few months. I immediately got a job driving a bread van. Good money for a lad! Back then you could drive anything up to 3 tons between 17 and 20. Once you were 21 you could drive virtually anything on a standard car licence; no HGV or special weight restrictions at all.

I was 19 when I bought my first car: A 1949 Austin Devon. Like this. Pretty cool eh?

This Forum. Has it changed? For the better or for the worse? Or not a at all?

friends

when i post i try to imagine that i am at a social gathering or sometimes in someone's house as a dinner guest.

that way it is easier to follow the community guidelines and posting rules set out on the site at the bottom of the page.

i wouldn't want to make a fool of myself in public.

Anyone know any former long time Bethelites or circuit overseers?

by BourneIdentity in

as you know, when you work your whole life, you pay into social security.

at retirement, you collect a paycheck from the government based on a percentage of income you drew for all those years.

do any of you know anyone that had been at bethel for decades and then were laid off?

Any UK person or couple with insufficient or even no pension contributions can claim Pension Credit at, or sometimes before, retirement age. https://www.gov.uk/pension-credit/what-youll-get

Is it OK to teach your children that Homosexuality is wrong?

by Thomasdam in

i know a few family's who have left the cult but send their kids to a religious school because of the public schools teaching many times that homosexuality is ok. the bible is clear that its a sin.

there is no just love each other and its all ok. i don't believe in the bible or any religion.

i have a niece who came out as gay and i told her i don't care.

snugglebunny

I am no more hostile toward homosexuals than I am toward any other disabled person, but I also refuse to CELEBRATE homosexuality as some "fabulously" admirable trait.

I have to agree. I really don't care about someone's sexuality. It only pisses me off when either they, or some band-wagon jumper, insists that I take some sort of stand or make some sort of statement of support or opposition to their life style.

I don't see why parents need to be specific about homosexuality. Gays make up a tiny proportion of the population as a whole. Maybe parents would be better off teaching children just to treat everyone with respect and leave out the specifics. That way, sexuality, gender and religious beliefs will just be an incidental non-event.

Refusing a blood transfusion

by BourneIdentity in

hello all, first post.

i've been lurking for months and figured it was time to post a few things, i've been pimo for the last couple of years.. i was doing some thinking about an adult refusing a blood transfusion, especially one that has several children.

when you married and had children, you signed up to take care of them, to love and protect them.

snugglebunny

2014. Me. Massive blood loss due to ruptured colon. Had 6 units of blood. Didn't think twice about it.

Two For One!

by snugglebunny in

back in the day - yeah, i know, most things i write start like that!

however - back in the day there was an implicit rule ratio of 2 to 1 when it came to counting time.

two witnesses witnessing to one person for one hour would count one hour each.

snugglebunny

I'd drop a few leaflets into random homes when I was walking home from work and count the time. It prevented me from becoming irregular....
