NEW PUPPY - names?
by AWAKE&WATCHING inwell we are getting a new pup and i'm not set on a name yet.
it is a sweet baby girl cairn terrier (like toto).
she is wheaten, which is a blonde color.. she will be coming home to big brother jinx (meaning magic charm or spell), who is a red brindle color.. i have thought of many names but can't decide.. i really like gypsy (goes well with jinx), but don't like it for such a blonde pup.

Which Figured it out First - Your Right Brain or your Left Brain?
by HintOfLime inhi everyone, have a question:.
in your experience, which side figured out that the wt wasn't really "the truth" first?.
the right side of the brain is generally considered to be the "artistic, emotional, 'all at once', sub-conscious, dreaming" side of your brain, while the left being the "logical, procedural, step 1 then step 2" side of your brain.. for me it was clearly the right side - my left side had been well trained to ignore or weasel around the logical problems with the wt.

by mrsjones5 inor to be more specific genetics matter.
i just heard a story on npr about blood marrow donations among the black community, why it's so low and why it's desperately needed.

Are JWs more likely to stay from Fear of Armageddon or Fear of being Disfellowshipped?
by jwfacts ini have been reading some interesting information on terror management theory at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/terror_management_theory.
this explains how the terror of death leads to a belief in an afterlife and also affects how we live.
there is an "irresolvable paradox" created from the desire to preserve life and the realization of that impossibility because life is finite.

Favorite MOVIE SCENE - any genre - your pick!
by AWAKE&WATCHING in.
i realized i was hi-jacking another thread so i thought i would start my own topic.. one of my favorite movie scenes is the "to tip or not to tip" scene in reservoir dogs.
i don't care for all the blood in tarantino movies but he is, without a doubt, a genius.. .

Schnell and The Watchtowers everchanging "truth"
by brotherdan ini guess that's not the most interesting sounding topic, but i've been reading william schnells book "into the light of christianity" and came across something that i thought was totally profound.
"i now know that all cults...interpose an intermediary center for salvation.
in this way they sidetrack the true purpose of christianity, which is, to give the image and likeness of jesus christ full play for growth in the individual.
