  Psychology is the deception of the devil

  by poppers in

  2. friends

  while driving today i decided to listen to am radio for a change, and came across a religious station.

  their guest (don't remember who) had just written a book denouncing psychology and psychotherapay, calling it the "devil's deception".

  he derided christian clergy who have taken training in counseling, saying they are pawns of the devil if they don't rely soley on the bible in helping people.

  Usually people who campaign against Psychology are affiliated with scientology.

  A short summary of the punishments for Adam and Eve

  by truthseeker in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  whether you believe the genesis account or not, the punishments meted out on adam and eve were enormous.

  yes, they both knew that they would die in the day of their eating from the tree, but why was it necessary for eve, and every other woman born afterwards, to have a painful pregnancy?

  why did there have to be thorns and thistles?

  His explanation was a sexual craving for the husband as well as a craving for wanting to be dominated by her husband.

  It's not all bad then, is it?

  25 FOX

  You're thinking FOX News which isn't on the list surprisingly. The network FOX that they have broadcasts American Idol, the O.C, family guy, the simpsons, etc I wouldn't surprise me if the TVs have V-Chips to block out programs rated anything above PG.

  i posted this in the middle of someone elses thread by mistake.

  my mother and her friend were talking at da weekend and they reckon we are not only in the last days but the last hours.

  I've gotten hit on by "str8" guys. I put it in quotes because I believe these guys are just in some transitory period in their life. Some even had girlfriends. It seems to have increased after the release of Brokeback Mountain. Although I was flattered at first, it got rather annoying after awhile. I'm not a set of training wheels.

  what churches or denominations tend to get into that sort of thing?

  A good guess would be the mormons probably have some commercial holdings in Utah.

  Me. :-)

  For a short time after I left I thought that if I was straight then I would probably go back to the org. Then as time went by and I opened my mind I would never ever go back.

  I use Mac at home and for my home business (iMac and iBook)... and a Dell at work. It really depends on what you plan to use it for. I LOVE my mac. But I do a ton of video and music editing, compressing, burning. A Dell is great if you plan on using it for basic stuff (internet, word processing, etc).

  Another thing I like about Mac is it is harder to accidentally break the operating system. There are less viruses and the chances of deleting a crucial file are minimal. It seems easier to delete crucial files on a windows machine. But that's just me.

  I don't trust "friends" who steal. When I find out something about a person like that I never have them over. What if I have a loose credit card receipt or something lying around? Will they take it?
