this is funny: go to the google search engine and type in your name + 'needs' after it, e.g.

"john needs".

write down the description of the first (or best!

MissBehave

Mine was "MissBehave needs glasses" and that was found on britishspanking.com.

My real name...."xxxx needs a cold shower" and "xxxx needs a smack daddy".

Whoa.

edited to add....I just did my husband and it said "xxxx needs a belt". Double whoa.

Council of Nicaea / Arius / Constantine and the Bible

by MissBehave in

i've been reading up on the constantine's involvement in the compilation of the bible at the council of nicaea.

as well as the ousting of arius because of his "controversial" beliefs.

it's been many years since i've read any watchtower literature...anyone know what the jw's believe / teach / preach regarding this subject.

If today's bible (any version) is a result of 66 books being voted into effect by a council of men in the 4th century under the direction of the first Christian Roman Emperor, that makes me have doubts that I never had before.

Especially the whole deal with Arius....he had views that differed from the mainstream...such as that the trinity was bogus. So he was deemed a heretic and his works were destroyed. And nothing was included in the "bible" that supported his version. And what about all the other books that were voted out that didn't make the final cut. What did those say?

I'm starting to think the bible is just literature.

To newbies: You give up your rights when you become a Witness

i was sitting here thinking: am i making fun of my children's religion?

am i being disrespectful to witnesses?

i was raised to be accepting of other people's religious choices.

The right to see R rated movies because.....SACRE BLEU....that could lead to conduct unbecoming a Christian.

"Worldy" Event at Assembly Site

by MissBehave in

so last night i went to an event at the arena where i used to attend assemblies, most notably the four day summer district convention, many many moons ago.

i have been to a couple concerts there since fading but this one was different because the house lights were up the whole time so it reminded me more of the assemblies.

it was weird in a deja vu kind of way and liberating all at the same time.

It was weird in a deja vu kind of way and liberating all at the same time. I stood and sang the National Anthem and lightning did not strike me dead. HA!

I was a little disappointed with the concessions though....they served things like beer, hot dogs, popcorn, pretzels. I was really looking forward to a pudding cup and a flat Shasta lemon lime soda.

I'm sure y'all have had a bazillion similar experiences. What's your story?
