its not too often that this magnitude of a tragedy hits our small neck of the woods, but this one is big.
apparently a disgruntled employee burst into a factory (nu wood), and shot around 35 employees......no details on the shooter yet, or the casulties.
the factory is located in goshen, which is about 10 miles from my office here in elkhart, indiana.
right about the end? hmmmm.

something has puzzeled me for a long time since i came to this board.
first i would like to say i'm not judging any in what i'm about to say as we all are at different places in our lives and i respect that.. here it is: at what point in your life did you no longer believe in god or believe the bible?.
how many came to this conclution after coming to this db?.
hopefully my point will be made.
You had a point to make? I thought you were "puzzled" and were not judging, but just asking a question.

my puppy, friday, has never gotten himself into this type of a situation!
there are times when man's best friend needs attention!.
the dog whose wish was finally granted.
Why is a roadside mailbox sitting inside the fence, halfway to the house?

Conversation is the catalyst for thought, hopefully. And as the bible says, "in the multitude of counselors there is wisdom." In a public forum you have an opportunity to see many different viewpoints presented, and you can weigh the relative merits of each and draw your own conclusions.
Yes, I was an agnostic before I came here. But when I first found H2O (the forum I frequented before this one) I was not only still a believer, I still thought JWs were the one true religion (even though I had disassociated).

this friday, december 7th., is our 28th wedding anniversary.
her ladyship and i intend to visit our favourite restaurant, dimitri's, for a slap-up greek meal plus a considerable quantity of excellent wine.. its a time when we like to reflect on our life together, the lows as well as the highs that we have experienced over the years.
mainly, our life has been one of laughter and fun.
Handsome couple, E. Congrats on keeping the fire burning all this time. You and the missus must really have what it takes!

i posted this on the thread from little_red_birdie, but thought perhaps it deserved it's own thread.. to some of the posters on this thread:.
you guys are just too suspicious.
some teens are so grown up, and have good vocabularies, because their parents talk to them, and they learn how to speak.
It's funny, COMF
Why is it funny?
I got lots of comments, from people, who agreed with me, and they understood perfectly.
By "understood" you mean that they agreed with you that it's okay for you and them to make a snap judgment call based on an impression and to call people down for it.
That's more than our "Hmmmm" was doing... but it's okay in your case.
Yep, I get it, all right.

No, we're not.
Don't look for things to criticize so often. That is a JW trait.
I don't look for things to criticize. I wait for an alarm to be set off, and I react to it according to what the situation warrants. I made no criticisms; I offered no commentary. I posted one simple syllable: "Hmmmmm." You have inferred anything beyond that, based on your past experience. That's a good thing; it's what I do, too. Are you being too suspicious of me? Are you being critical of me? Or do you feel that most likely you have correctly assessed the situation based on my one-syllable comment? Do you feel that the chances of you being right about my meaning are good enough for you to pass judgment?
Shame on you.
That's what I thought. It's okay for you to do it; just not for us to.
Wrong. There is no shame in what I did.

i had no idea what i was getting into.
Hmmmmm.
