God does not have Multiple Personality Disorder
by Cephyr13 ina jehovah's witness once said that the christian god of the trinity has multiple personality disorder (mpd).
this goes to show their complete lack of understanding of the trinity and how to explain it.. god does not have multiple personality disorder (mpd).
he created us in his image, having three parts.

Lily- can you tell me what it was (scripturally) that helped you see that Jesus isn't Michael? Fatboy- Haven't read the book being discussed- can you elaborate on what you were saying about John 8:58, please? I know the tenses in KJV and NWT differ- KJV says "I am", NWT says "I was"...I am confused regarding the original Greek. -Potential

What Craft Or Hobby Keeps YOU busy?
by Sunspot inas long as i can recall, i have always had at least three craft or needlework "projects" going at one time!
i have had a few "unproductive years" due to two strokes that affected my right side and the use of my fingers.
i tried a few things and then put them down in desperation.. recently i picked up a crochet hook again determined to figure out a way to get things working again.....and it is slow and very awkward but i can still crochet!.

What a great idea for a thread! I have done just about everything- used to macrame when I was a kid, have done plastic canvas, crocheted (still have a half finished project or two!), still have a sewing machine, love to make Christmas ornaments, like to do wood painting, have a mosaic project I'm trying to get started, used to draw, scrapbook- yea Creative Memories! (although I haven't had time to in a while), did cross stitch for a while (again, still have plenty of projects lying around), occasionally do some stamping, but mostly the houseplants (including an African violet) are the only thing I have any regular time for, and I do have some rose bushes. Used to read a lot, always wanted to do stained glass. I have a ton of supplies for a million and one projects...Recently started yoga, Will start walking on a regular basis again soon. Researching the dubs and watchtower have been all consuming lately... :(

JC- you're an odd duck, buddy! I don't think either you or OBVES is the anti-christ. I'm pretty sure you two aren't evil, but you are both weird. The numbers numb my mind after a while and I confess I can't understand all that business. But then again, I know that according to the Bible NO ONE knows "THE DATE". So it's all just a waste of time IMO.

Los Lonely Boys "My Way"
partial lyrics:
You can try and deceive me, but I see right through your skin
what you're trying to tell me is something I don't believe in!
Listen to me!
chorus: don't tell me how to live my life, don't tell me how to pray
don't tell me how to sing my song, don't tell me what to say
I believe that miracles happen every day.
I don't care what you say, I'm gonna do it my way!
You say you have all the answers, and I should do it your way
how many times do I have to tell you- I ain't no puppet on a string! Noooo.
If this song wasn't written about the borg, it sure could've been!

My friend needs advice re: wife who wants to leave JWs but won't celebrate
by truthseeker ini have a friend who has started the slow fade.
recently, his wife talked about leaving, but she is still hung up on worldly holidays.. this is what he says.... one of the concerns my wife has about leaving "the truth" is that she wants our children to grow up with wholesome examples and association with their peers.
my wife knows jws aren't the only religion to teach their kids to behave morally, but what about the holidays?

Like Blondie said, there are many others outside the organization that don't celebrate certain holidays. Especially Halloween- The more fundamentalist types steer clear of that one for sure. The other Holidays are more difficult. I think GGG is on to something, investigating each one sounds like a good place to start. I find the witness arguments against Christmas completely unconvincing as a Christian. So what if that's not the original date that Jesus was born?! The fact is that the holiday is a celebration of the birth of our Lord and Saviour! For a little while most folks are more decent to everyone else than they normally would be, and greetings all around for peace on earth, goodwill toward men. Now what could be more right?! Silly to get twisted over the "pagan origins"- no one (or at least very few) uses it for that type of celebration these days. Plus, who knows for sure when Jesus was born? The argument that Herrod wouldn't call for the census at that time because it would be too cold to travel also doesn't cut it. The man was paranoid, and just trying to get to the Messiah. He didn't give a care how cold it was- he wasn't traveling! Hmmm- I have gone on about this haven't I? Guess I've put some thought into it...
