I agree with you Sylvia. You always brighten my day.

does anyone else have the same problem.
when i'm alone, i am constantly thinking about all the clever things i'm going to say if visited by the elders, but when i actually get confronted, these things never come to mind, and i keep spitting out drivel like some dumb idiot.
after they leave, i rethink the conversation, and i'm furious over all the oppotunities i've missed to put them in their place.......damn it!!!!!
all the time

are there any tests/interviews they have to go thru to prove it?.

One sister in our local cong. said she new she was of the anointed because she got a letter from the society saying she was.
It said; her faithful service as one of Jehovahs witnesses since 1935 proved she was of the heavenly class. She has partaken ever since.
What I wouldn't give to see that letter.

i remember a sister that put a tissue over her head as a headcovering....
My grandma used a potholder or a tea towel. Whichever was closer.
Try not to laugh during those prayers. When your 9 that is funny stuff.

i don't believe dreams have any divine meaning, but i had the most vivid dream last night and wondered if others have had dreams of the second coming of christ.
from what i remember, i was at work and there was a huge trumpet blast and the sky split in two with a bright light.
christ and all the angels appeared and i fell to my knees.
I had a similar dream 3 nights ago. I was looking into the sky and it opened up like a rabbit hole. I could see faces on the other side peering down at us. When they noticed I was looking they winked at me. I tried to tell everyone around me to look up but they couldn't see anything. I was so excited but everyone around me thought I was crazy. I was not scared or anxious, just happy. I remember feeling like I knew something that everyone else was unable or afraid to see.
When I woke I thought maybe it is the other side trying to tell me I was on track. Although it is around the anniversary of my mothers death so maybe I just wanted something miraculous to happen.
Who knows

i found this while perusing through old golden ages at the new york public library.
it is so patently ridiculous and offensive, i thought i'd just post the thing without comment.

Thanks! I missed this the first time around.
I actually just read Uncle Toms Cabin for the first time ( in it's entirety) about a month ago.
I just kind of got over being upset about it.(the book) This article makes me livid. I can just imagine all those smug white men at the top reading this drivel; agreeing with it and passing on generations of bigotry and lies to their children.
I can't imagine how anyone who professes to be a Christian could have been read this kind of thing and think it came from god.

the 6th and final season of lost has been jam-packed with "reveals"!.

what is the secret of the island?.
I agree with changeling. I think it is following a good verses evil meaning of the universe kind of theme. If the great evil(cloud) ever gets out off the island it is like the devil being unleashed on all of us. And it's up to the pure of heart to save the world. ( I know to obvious)
Although that could be my grand spiritual upbringing influencing my thoughts.

just thought i would share what the borg is dispensing as "spiritual food at the proper time" .. .
tuesday, may 11. quickly.
they forgot his works; they did not wait for his counsel.ps.106:13.. some may have left gods flock because they did not agree with some scriptural teaching.
I hte the comment "rich spiritual food" too.
It makes my think of heavy cream. Who can tolerate rich food all the time. It's too much. I get bloated.
