it's been so long since i've been here.
hmmm...suppose that warrants a new introduction, which will conveniently lead to the subject of my post: ahh the freedom.
i am twenty years old, with my twenty-one run fast approaching.
I've made it my business to break every rule ever shoved down my throat .....
sometimes to my detriment, but then again, even that's a freedom I never had.
the freedom to f%&k-up.
so as you said .... Ahhhhhh ....
Welcome Back ... and good luck on your degree.

my older sister, always a devout jw, or so we were led to believe......recently left home and went to live with her boyfriend!
hubby and self are faders, fading very nicely so far.
we went round for sunday dinner at my parents, who are devout jws and they had also invited my sister and her boyfriend.
I would love to be a fly on the wall should Prince ever be hauled into the back room for a dressing down by the elders about his behaviour and the example he's setting to the brothers!
"Uh ... Brother Prince, uh, I mean ... the Brother Formerly known as ........."

i was always fascinated with dinosaurs as a kid.
i remembering asking my mother how come the bible doesn't mention the dinosaurs ... i mean, if he created everything, he must've created the dinosaurs.
why no mention?
It was determined using the same method the GB used to dub itself the FDS .....

Great story NIC ...
especially the wide-eyed sincere brother part (God I remember them!).
But if the dinos died in the flood ... what about the Plesiosaurs and the other sea-faring dinos? I'd like to see them weddle their way outta that one ....
But then again ...
maybe, over in Loch Ness ...
... naw, couldn't be ....

i was just reading an article about a 50 year old toronto psychiatric nurse who has had 10 years of horrible depression.
she has fought off suicidal thoughts, cried and sobbed on her balcony for hours on end, spent 6 months in bed, shunned food and friends.. today.....two years later, she is happy, full of energy, and feels like living again.
what happened?.
Oooooowwwh!
I can't believe you would even suggest such a thing!!
... any new-fangled gizmo with electrical thing-a-mabobs in the head has got to be the work of SATAN the DEVIL.

Perry ... thanks for that link ....
I went through it and did some other searches, extensively, last night ... and came to the conclusion that's it all BS. And all the links are biased. It's either one extreme, or the other ... evolutionist v. creationist, each with amply expert rhetoric. It made my head hurt. However, I do believe the creationists stretch the truth a lot more .... and are fanatical bordering scary.
Evolution it is.
