I've wondered about that, too. Is it only moderators who can edit others' posts? Sometimes I notice how someone will take another's post and put it into proper paragraph format.

Well, God can also edit posts, but He's been a bit too busy to bother Himself with such matters. LOL You can, of course, edit your own posts within a certain time limit. Mods can edit any posts within a somewhat extended, but still limited, time frame. You can't directly edit anybody else's posts, but you can c/p and edit the c/p within your own post. You can't delete even your own posts/threads, but, within that limited time frame, you can edit them. The secret keystroke for all these functions is (REMOVED)

Thanks for sharing!
I am not as smart as most here
Ya you are.

Yeppers! All those whom I've come to know as "smart" people readily acknowledge that, if anything, their "smarts" more often than not got in the way of "smartly" seeing, sometimes for years, and even decades!

Thinking, welcome to JWD.

And why do the lads have their trousers around their thighs, showing us their jockey shorts?

It's a simple physiological matter of your butt shrinking to nothing, and your belly swelling to everything (as in my case LOL)

Perhaps you might check into being a plumber?

if the police say such and such a thing, do you tend to automatically believe it?

I hope this answers your latest 'subtle' question minimus.

The psychology of eschatology

by onacruse in

jw
friends

so here's a question: why do some people (and i include myself as a former member of the group) seem so preoccupied with "end-times" issues?.

as a starter, i submit that it's because we are inclined to fight against the inevitability of our own demonstrably limited human existence...and therefore we develop around ourselves "escape mechanisms" to alleviate the pain of termination.. we use numerical calculations, religious speculations, mysterious cosmic forces, evolutionary patterns, etc.

etc.. your thoughts?.
