  for those of you that dont know, iam half choctaw indian, my mom told me an sad, but interesting story the other day, she is jw, and my dad elder, she had her indian boarding school reunion, in oklahoma, and did not want to go, the first i have ever heard of her reunion, in all my life,.

  she told me this story, similar stories i have heard from indian relatives, when she was a little girl, about 7 , she had 11 brothers and sisters, she lived on tribal lands in oklahoma, her great grandmother signed the 5 civilized scrolls act in 1907 that said indians would give up there ansterial lands and be relocated to indian territory, oklahoma.our tribe was from louisana.. her older family traveled from louisana, to oklahoma, in the dead of winter, on foot and hungry the whole way, over half the tribe died, sickness and malnourishment set in on the journey, and the military escort was berating them the whole way, the exodus, known to history books tday as the trail of tears.

  the soldiers learned the words tish-pa, which means hurry up.. for some time after they made it to indian territory, they were given dispersments of money, they did not use money, and had no real use for it, it stopped shortly thereafter, the site named skully, to this day, which means money, a new word made up for it.. .

  God cannot break his own laws!

  by LtCmd.Lore in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  whether or not he has actually done so is tangential to this topic.. my question is: why does the wts seem to think that god cannot break his own laws?.

  there was recently a co at our hall, he was talking about religious stuff as they usually do.

  but he said that the old saying: "with god, all things are possible.

  Well, he does break his own laws, that's proven. Not sure where it says he "can't".

  (Your actual mileage may vary, deity may not be exactly as described or even exist, actions may be misrepresented, misattributed or lied about, obfuscating poetic language may be used in descriptions, words such as 'anything', 'proof', 'know', 'true' may be misused/redefined.)

  I learned that when canned goods go bad, and the ends of the can get all pushed out and round, that it's because of the bacteria inside the can. What is causing all of that pressure from the inside of the can, yep, bacteria farts. (or, at least the gases anaerobes give off during metabolism).

  is the glass half full, or half empty?.

  it depends on whether you're pouring, or drinking.

  There is a troll that usually shows up on the weekends. One of his screen names was Barney. Lloyd Braun was another of his names. He comes on here and

  taunts Simon
  Posts silly, inflammatory comments on really old threads
  posts extremely pornographic pictures
  
  
  He got stopped today before the porn hit.
  
  He'll probably be back before the weekend is over.
