M theory is built upon the concept of 11 dimensions as membranes, and the "physical" universe that we are in is the result of the "mixing" of these membranes (reputedly, the "branes" are inifnite in width, but onlt 10^-20 in thickness) as these membranes mix, bubbles are created, sort of like bubbles in bubble wrap. Each "bubble" is a universe, with each bubble being a different mix of branes and therefore a "different" universe. Gravity is simply a result of the mix, pretty much like everything else, including physical law. Instead of worrying about gravity, worry why neutrons are able to hold shape.

Did You Take Insults From the Householders Personally?
by GermanXJW ini remember that people could really get rude in the house-to-house-ministry.
some jw just shrugged their shoulders and imagines how this very person got destroyed in armageddon?
others covered it with "love": people are unknowing and misled.

Not really, but maybe I was lucky and only got the dumb ones. I spent most of my time trying to keep from laughing. Gumby - I had a redneck get pissed at me and tell me, "You won't stand up for what you believe." I think I know what he was trying to say, but the 15 functioning brain cells that he had probably got tuckered keeping his lips from moving as he read the title of the magazine. The only time that I can remember where I might have felt a little upset was when a Baptist fanatic grabbed the Bible out of my hand to see that it was a NWT and then jammed it back into my hands with a snort and some mumble about "garbage". What I'd like to see here is a thread where we all describe our most whackiest householders. I had a skinny old lady take the magazines, and then started into some sort of religious fervor. She worked herself up into this kind of froth as she went through the holy roller littany of "Jesus is my saviour. He came here to die for us. He's our friend!" and so on. Then she started hitting herelf with the magazines that she had rolled up. Now, you gotta picture this. Here I am, in my suit with my BB and here's this skinny little gray haired thing ranting on about some sh*t, making little popping noises with the magazines as she whacks herself in the chest like those muslim dudes do with their whips. Pretty soon, the magazines get frayed as hell and little pieces of WT and Awake start floating down like some sort of heavenly dandruff or something. Me and the guy I was with just look at each other, turn and walked out of the apt building. I just knew that the neighbors were huddled behind their doors with shocked looks on their faces, "My God, Francine! Those Jehovahs are beating Mabel with their magazines. Maybe we should call the police!"

Is There Anything That You'd Like to Talk About??
by minimus inwhat's on your mind?
share your darkest, deepest thoughts with us......

Annanias
Terry - have them find you. One thing I've thought would be nice is a mood alteration/enhancement site that can be used at work. Since you can stream audio fairly easily today, it is something a people at work (chained to their machines in their cubes of hell) could use. Not necessarily a radio station with it's interruptions and demands on you attention and so forth, but a "scientifically" put together sequence of sounds (white noise, pink noise) and music. So, if I get to work in the morning and I am feeling "ok" (whatever that is), I can tune into a "mood extender" and if it's after lunch and I want to fight the PM fatigue, I connect to that. The selling point would be that a room full of engineers, CS people, or whoever, i.e. people who are supposed to "think" for a living, spend a lot of their personal energy blanking out all of the extraneous noises and distractions. Your music/enhancer assists them to do that and costs very little energy. Actually, it adds energy. You can have various levels of it: pre-meeting, post meeting, wind down to go home, wind up to create, etc. Your service isn't just "elevator" music, but an actual mood altering system, at least, that's the way you sell it.
BTW - you don't want to know my deepest, darkest thoughts. Your monitor would melt.

TMS - According to their faith? Excuse me, I just got done with a wracking cough caused by a laughing fit. Sorry, but he needs to get a new advance man, he does not live up to his billing. Yeah, a God of miracles alright, I guess he was too busy helping some fat lady choose her lottery numbers when I needed him, huh? Okay, please define "faith" for me. I must've been using the wrong one.
Y'know, the book of Job, with all of it's Pathos, hubris, pain, and poetry, still comes down to a couple of individuals with absolutely no concern for the poor fu*kers who had to go thru it. In the beginning, Satan and Jehovah make a bet and Satan proceeds to kick Job's ass. But what is really interesting is that the first thing Satan does is kill Job's children with a tornado. Excuse me? You mean these poor dipsh*ts rate no more than an "oh yeah" in the Bible because of some fu*king bet? I can just imagine this poor stupid sh*t son of Job as he gets ripped up into the air by a tornado thinking, "Hooooolllly shit!!! God what did I dooooooooooo?" So God scratches his chin, picks at his nose, and says, "Nothing personal. This is business."
I asked an "elder" about this one time. I mean, what a dirty trick, to deep six some poor bastard who didn't even see it comming, for a bet! The "elder" told me, "Well, maybe it was his time?" Oh, that's just fuc*ing grea!. Well, maybe it's time you sucked my...
"Hey Ralph, see those two kids playing hopscotch over there?"
"Yeah, Duke, what about 'em?"
"I bet I can spray that one with lighter fluid, strike him up, and he won't get six feet. What d'ya say?"
"Six feet?. Okay, yer on."
Are you telling me that with all of the supposed intelligence, smarts, brains, abilities, that this is the best that these two geniuses could come up with? Oh, doesn't this just instill loads of fuc*ing confidence in what's comming down the road?
"Okay, okay. A couple of sparkelers up his ass and he jumps greater than 35 inches."
"Okay, 35 inches and he loves me. Less than 35 and he's an evil, worthless piece of shit. You're on."

No. Nor do they have it right about the Mormons, Scientologists, Khukla, Fran, or Ollie. The first thing you do to admit that you're weaker than something is try to ban it. Why don't we ban that crazy old lady with her cats in Times Square? Because she isn't a threat.
shamus - you are 100% correct. The USA should keep it's nose out of other people's domestic issues. But then, go tell a duck to get the f*ck out of the water.

What does it mean to have an "abundance of life"
by Dawn ini posted a question (re: jesus words at john 10:10) under the research section - it kind of morphed into another question.
someone suggested that i start a new thread - so here goes..... what does it mean to have an "abundance of life" - as spoken about in john 10:10. i don't believe it applies to a life "in abundance" financially or even through the fun we have, etc.
i think it's something more....is it relationships?

Annanias
Dawn, thanks...One of the weirdest experiences in my life was when I got to visit Earnest Hemingway's house in Sun Valley, even the bedroom where he stuck the shotgun in his mouth and... I asked the friend I was with,"Why would he do that?" My friend answered, "why not? He probably didn't have anything to live for, hell he'd already done everything there was to do." Pleasant thought, huh? Obviously, if a multi-millionaire with vibrant health, fame, passion, talent, and charisma decides on an early check-out, it kind of makes any definition of "abundant life" hard to pin down, at least, on this planet that is.
Living is enjoyment. Not hedonism, enjoyment. The problem is, how much enjoyment can you have if it's finite? If you know that tomorrow, you may (or will) be dead due to _________ (fill in the blank), can you really get full or abundant enjoyment out of something today? Sometimes I think I have that brain malady where the receptors can't absorb enough dopamine; and so I can enjoy stuff, but only on a short term, temp basis. I can never get enough. It's like I forget what enjoyment is, or something. Is the last bite of ice cream as enjoyable as the first? The last woman? The last kiss? This particular subject was one of the primary issues that attracted me to the WTBS. Out of all the religions on the earth, here was the one where I wasn't necessesarily going to have to die to get my reward. This was the only one that based the reward on the fact that I would have the one, absolute, no questions asked, most important thing necessesary to enjoyment: life. And an endless supply of it at that.
So, I guess my answer is: to have an everlasting life.

"It's a simple fact, though, if I believed everything hook line and sinker she could have what she thinks she wants."
From my experience, you're wrong. All she'll get is an unhappy (probably stoned) husband, and all you'll get is a stomach full of fishing equipment.
If you want to be her spiritual sugar-daddy then do it. Get off this board and don't look back. Being happy is much more important than being right, informed, cutting edge, or anything else, and that's all I think that most people here are trying to say.
