  He is going through a sh*tpot of emotions right now. My advice to him would be to let things settle and reevaluate things for a bit. Jesus can wait.

  I wonder why the decreases in some of the bigger countries do not have a negative percent listed. See Germany for example.

  The article goes into the usual blah blah blah trying to cover for Obama

  Ignore because this doesn't fit my view. LOL.

  Again, what about this BTS?

  Blagojevich was heard complaining that he has to give this "motherf-- [the president-elect] his senator. F-- him. For nothing? F-- him."

  Obama couldn't have asked for better quote than this. Yes, this doesn't categorically prove he is innocent...but holy sh*t!
  
  Cognitive dissonance BTS?

  What kind of difference has JWD made in your life?

  by JimmyPage in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i feel fortunate that there is already a built-in online community i can go to where people can relate to having been a jw and where it's okay to express your true feelings about that.

  i'm thinking it must have been much more difficult a decade ago.

  so what kind of impact has this website had on your life?

  have you developed new interests and goals now that you're no longer a kingdom-oriented jw?.

  or just picking up where you left off before you became a witness?.

  and without the guilt...?.

  What non-issues did you get "counseled" about?

  by rebel8 in

  2. friends

  i was "counseled"* for being mad that my jw boyfriend began dating my sister.

  it was wrong of me to have feelings.

  any embarrassment i felt was due to being puffed up with pride.

  My sideburns were 'worldly'. They were neatly trimmed down to the top of my earlobe.
  
  I wore a non-white shirt to the meeting. Some overzealous publisher got his panties in a bunch.
  
  I felt up the good looking sisters in the bathroom stalls. Wait, that one was in my dreams.

  Two New Bibles Preach A Hip, Eco-Friendly Gospel

  by betterdaze in

  by lynn neary .

  morning edition, december 4, 2008 two new bibles targeting a young, hip even secular audience are hitting bookstores.

  one is a slick, illustrated version of the new testament; the other is an environmentally friendly edition that takes advantage of the popularity of the green movement.

  I welcome the Green Bible. There is a new generation of evangelicals growing up who read Genesis chapter 1 as direction to manage the Earth sustainably.
  
  Of course I would prefer the Bible is totally out of the equation, but if this gets a large number of evangelicals to recycle and think 'green' it's a good thing.
