  by LittleToe in

  2. friends

  the background to this thread is that i love wearing (?

  ) a beard, but my wife hates it.

  i've changed my profile pic to reflect four states of facial hairiness (if it doesn't show, hit "refresh" on your browser).. i'm interested in your opinions.

  Adventists avoid eating meat, taking illicit drugs and stimulants, drinking alcohol and smoking. That's because Adventists believe the body is a temple and must be kept clean.

  If her body is a temple, it is a mighty large one!

  I, in no way, mean to be disrespectful of the obese, however, It always amazes me that people can claim their body is a temple and should be kept clean and yet not mean that the body should also be kept fit. Gluttony is defined in the Bible as a sin and so if alcohol and smoking are outlawed in a religion, surely over eating should be also.

  I acknowledge that some people suffer from conditions where their weight cannot be controlled. Those people should be required always carry a doctor's note confirming their illness and without that note they should be considered sinners.

  I willing to wager that this simple stipulation would render the churches of most cults practically empty!

  Dakota Red,

  I read with interest your letter to the Governing Body and thought that it was well thought out and well written. A wonderful piece of writing.

  But then, Sir, Im biased. I think everything you do is wonderful!

  (When I sent my letters I them sent by certified mail so they'll have to sign for them! hee, hee)

  okay, we have had plenty of iq quizzes, but no one has used this one.

  what is so great about it is no scoring.

  read the question, then try to answer---then check your answer by scrolling down!!

  i have decided to join this board after getting to read some of the stories here.

  some of you might be familiar with me through conversation with my wife, cassiline, who has been a member here for quite some time now.. let me explain a few thing about my beliefs which will be boring to some of you so it's ok if you don't read this.

  i don't have a religion, i simply believe in myself and the well being of others around me.

  It seems that my parents loved to take pictures of us unclothed. Here is the only picture I could find of me that was fairly decent!

  My story - witchywoman

  2. experiences

  it has been many years since i was dsfsd, i have written this to my sister in hopes that she could understand some of the reasons that the relationship between my daughter and myself have been strained for so many years.

  i thought that by posting this it might help someone else that might be going through some of the same things.. here is my story.hello, as i stated in my other e-mail i will dedicate this entirely to trying to explain my situation with my daughter.

  i hope you don`t mind if it gets lengthy.as you probably already know i chose to be a jehovahs witness, and was one for more than 16 years.

  Witchywoman, what a compelling story. You are certainly a brave woman and one who deserves to be admired.

  I pray that Mary comes to her senses and realizes that in this life we are given but one mother and that she deserves our love and devotion.
