  -25 this morning in my part of Wisconsin. Yesterday was -28 when I checked at 8 AM, so it was probably colder. Schools here were closed both days. In 1977 we got to -60, that's air temperature not wind chill.

  I once heard Kenneth Copeland describe God's height and weight, something along the lines of 6'2" and 190 pounds. WTF?

  champ Adam n Eve were not created with original sin they were created perfect they sinned after

  They sinned afterward because they were set up to sin, to sin without understanding the consequences. What's the point in being given free will and then being punished for exercizing it and then condemning everyone who comes after them for a sin they weren't responsible for? And then, all those people who never heard of Jesus and how to be "saved" are, nevertheless, also condemned to suffer eternal damnation. "Original sin," does this really sound like it comes from an all loving God or does it sound like an idea that came from the human mind?

  Boring Blockbusters

  greetings, movie buffs:.

  i grew up with scary movies of the 1950s -- "the beast from 20,000 fathoms," "forbidden planet," "the thing" (howard hawkes).

  in "the thing," the audience gasped when the men surrounding the ice-encased object proved to be circular: a flying saucer!

  New Study Exposes Acupuncture As Pseudoscience

  besides it being pseudoscience, what interests me about this is that even though it's something to do with the "qi" energy flowing in our bodies, that wasn't a problem for some members of my family or a special pioneer i knew.. new study exposes acupuncture as pseudoscience.

  I highly recommend Jon-Kabat-Zinn and mindfulness based meditation.

  I guess the reason for posting it is in the title's thread, Comatose. I watched the whole thing, but don't buy into any of it. For me it is so manipulative - just another emotional blackmailing attempt to guilt people into becomeing true/real Christians.

  Good demonstration of mass hysteria in that second video, and if some other religious/spiritual group was displaying the same behaviour they'd be accused of demonic possession by those same Christians.

  Christmas is WRONG!

  you all should be ashamed of your egotistical selves.

  how can you leave god's organization to celebrate the work of satan the devil?

  it just goes to show you how jehovah's christian witnesses are correct about how persons will leave the truth for their own selfish desires.. first off, christmas is a pagan holiday and it proves no spirit with the almighty jehovah and his son, the christ.

  thesaint's phraseology, not to mention his screen name, betrays him - not a real JW. The "holy Governing Body"? The "holy WatchTower publications"? Jehovah's "holy church"? Come on man! Nice try though. Even over-the-top rants brings out the looniness of the JWs so that real JW lurkers can see themselves, so thanks for that. And if by some small chance you are for real then this proves the JWs ARE religious extremists. And you've done such a good job of illustrating this I would nominate you as its poster boy.

  Someone is having some fun by spreading some demented Christmas cheer to those who relish bashing (and rightfully so) the WT and its minions. Your Christmas gift to this forum is much appreciated. Happy New Year, and a belated Merry Christmas from me.
