The things I look for in a woman that indicates genuine love are the way she looks at me, the way she talks to me, the kind deeds, thoughtfulness and whether or not she includes me in her plans/planning. The truly defining element that indicates love is whether or not a person would be willing to sacrifice their own interests for the betterment of the other. The ultimate sacrifice being their life i.e. would they be willing to shove you out of the way of danger whilst putting themselves in danger. This I find is consistent in all relationships. For example, I would risk my life to save my kids without hesitation but I think this applies to a husband-wife (partner-partner) relationship as well.

How can you tell if you are really loved?
by kls inreally what do you look for to know that your husband, wife, girlfriend or what ever the relationship might be that they do love you?
how can you tell it is love or just a matter of convenience ?
those that have had many relationships may be able to answer because i really don't know if i know the difference.

JW's and government
by Granny Linda inmy jw sister works for the postal service, wearing the uniform and driving one of their mail trucks.
not only do i think this is hypocritical given the jw stance on government, it pisses me off each time i go to the post office and read the stupid sign about postal employees and federal crimes blah blah blah - like, what makes them so much more important than any other working person.. anyhow this has been bugging me for some time and i'd really like to confront her one day about wearing a symbol of the government, but i doubt i'll ever have the chance.
gawd, i detest those phoney people.. gl.

Response to Schiz:
It is not I who made up their silly doctrine or rules rather it is WT. The fact that I point out that certain behaviour is hypocritical when compared against their WT doctrine and rules is for them to have to explain - not me.

Jehovah's Witnesses have the same right to have a job as anybody else. Your reasoning is extremely shallow. If your way of reasoning was correct though, a JW would be "hypocritical" were he or she to make use of government currency, such as a $1.00 bill. To simply be employed by an agency of the government is not the same thing as becoming involved in politics.
Schiz I will speak on her defense (in case she went to bed). I understand her point. Firstly it is NOT a question of rights. As far as rights go a JW has the same rights as anyone else in society and that is not in question.
It has to do with the fact that JWs believe that the Gov't is controlled by Satan and does Satan's will. If a JW were to work for the Gov't then it could be argued that the JW is assisting Satan in advancing Satan's agenda. The creator of this thread views that as hypocritical behavior for a JW. A JW has opportunity to be gainfully employed in the U.S. without having to participate in working for the Government.

The end of Social Security (Not a flame thread)
by Preston indo you guys think social security will ever be reformed?
during the election bush proposed to fix social security through private accounts but given the stock market's last couple of years i don't think private accounts are going to be the solution to it all.
this is not a post written with the intent of bashing a single person, because frankly i think there's enough blame to go around.

Without getting into a lengthy explanation regarding economic theory, it has to do with (permanent and unrecoverable) inefficiences which stem from "dead weight loss".

The United States Postal Service® is an independent establishment of the Executive Branch of the United States Government. It operates in a businesslike way.
In the more than two centuries since USPS® began, it has grown and changed with America. Discovering the history of the Postal Service is a journey into the history of transportation, economics, industrialization, communications, and government.
Today, the Postal Service? delivers hundreds of millions of messages each day to more than 141 million homes and businesses.
This is the story of the evolution of the Postal Service and the important role it has played in the development of the United States.It looks like it's part of the Public sector and hence controlled by the Government. My guess is you thought it was not because of the fact that it operates as an independant establishment etc.

Fiscal responsibility and nurturing new industries and technologies can be as effective as tax cuts.
Not trying to increase tension on this thread but I just wanted to let you know BB that the above statement is actually factually incorrect.

The postal service is not a government job .
This surprises me I did not know that the United States Postal service was part of the private sector. I always thought it was part of the Public sector. When did they privatize it?

Awake! Watching the World "Studies on Sex Abuse by Priests"
by ezekiel3 infrom awake!
november 22, 2004 "watching the world" pg 29:.
"two long-awaited studies have found that the [u.s.] roman catholic church suffered an epidemic of child sexual abuse that involved at least 4 percent of priests over 52 years and peaked with the ordination class of 1970, in which one of every 10 priests was eventually accused of abuse," reports the new york times.
