i had many days like this but i will never forget the time that a 'prominent elder' publicaly declared that he wants to see the worldly people die at armaggeddon.
"i hope that i can look out the window & watch it all happening".
i went home and thought; 'wtf am i a part of here'?
I believe most of the posts here today could be summed up with two words ...... DISILLUSIONMENT.... DISAPPOINTMENT !
My saddest day was when I realized that a beloved (at that time) in -law and fellow witness was talking behind my back.
I think it's called being two-faced . I would have trusted him with my life ! From then on it was the domino's effect, nothing
about "the truth" was the truth, not even the people.I had always believed, that" you talk your talk and walk your walk"

what kind of a relationship are we suppose to have with jesus christ?
I guess it's about living life to the best of your ability. It's like your marriage relationship but even more so ;
where you want to be all that you can be, respect, loving ,kind.Doing things because you want to, not feeling forced
by religious rules but because of your deep love & respect that you feel from the heart !
Jesus himself gives a recorded example for us.One Bible account tells of a man who says
" Lord if you just wanted to, you could heal me !" Jesus says " I WANT TO be healed "

to grasp that the basic purpose of science is to produce useful models of reality.
how to help him understand that trying to make observable reality "fit" around a collection of writings designed in its first half to inspire the oftentimes persecuted jewish people and in its second to consolidate the fragmented roman empire is an exercise in futility?.
sorry, burn.. i couldn't resist.. hope you're having a wonderful day,.
Here's a no brainier question, I ask myself ....... Who do I admire more a cuddlier or a puncher ?
Caliber!
ponder this scenario:.
an alien "scientist" totally unfamiliar with the human and its anatomy comes to earth and sees a human sleeping.
it sees no other humans around, so has no frame of reference to evaluate this creature nor understand what it is doing.. the alien slices into the mans skull and pulls out the brain.
journey-on,
So I'm so late off the draw to comment, don't take time to read all the post.But this is a gem of a post that deserves
more exposure ! Your scenario is beautiful, intelligent, inspiring, enlightening but most importantly ( IMHO)
UNDEBATABLE with any measure intelligence and common sense !

Threads that typically DON'T do well:
1) Threads about your favorite penny
2) Threads asking about a particular person
3) Threads with poor/misleading titles
So now let's talk about my favorite penny, it's those over sized one from the early 1900's ha,ha,ha, ! (Canadian penny ) !
