Pontius Pilate

by lighthouse19something in

we i read about jesus' trail, it appears he had more compassion than the jews.

jesus practicly told he powerless in the matter, that's when pilate washed his hands and disavowed responabilty for jesus' death.

a clergyman said he had read that pilate later became a christian.

Except for the writings of Josephus, there is scant secular information about Pilate. Interestingly, Pilate is considered a saint in the Coptic and Ethiopian churches because of his alleged conversion to Christianity. Read Pontius Pilate -- The Biography of an Invented Man by Ann Wroe.

ok... something strange is going on here - what is it?

i just stepped down as an elder back in early november - and basically have a wife who has her hooks so far in the organization that i thought she would never bend... you know the drill - many family members in the truth - raised in the truth, etc..... well... last night we had a heart to heart about the doubts that i have been having, why i stepped down, and what i think will be a fair an equitable solution to the handling of our two kids.

it was like my coming our party - she completely bent on everything... she was completely understanding about my stance on everything, and although she does not agree - she does agree to not fight me on everything.

I agree with moshe. Adopt the Boy Scout motto: Be Prepared. Aside from that, I'm happy for ya. I'm not happy you're a Billzfan, tho'.

Need a little advice on this

by hambeak in

the owners of my business cannot meet payroll and have not paid a lot of bills.. the owner of the place i used to manage wants me back at twice the salary i make now but doesn't want jake there.

i accepted and jake is very upset.

he wants me to look for something we can both work together and i really don't want to.
