  Listening to the Silence

  by kenpodragon in

  sometimes when i have gotten home from a busy day or spent way to much time with family members, i like to go into my office or out into the garden.

  at this time i will sit and listen to the silence.

  the lack of noise brings me peace at times, when i do not have to hear everyone's problems or deal with how upset everyone thinks the world is making them.

  I think we can all relate to what you are saying .At times it is better to be alone with your thoughts so you can concentrate on important decisions but I still wouldn't want to wind up in solitary confinement.Too much of anything is not a good thing IMO.THis is definately a world full of stress and strife caused by the necessity to spend so much time around other people who constantly affect our lives for good or bad ,in fact it is harder to find people we would consider a good influence so most of the time we are dealing with the bad influence which does at times makes it hard to socialize and maintain a balance for a productive life.There is so much dysfunction it is hard to even respect most people and again in my opinion ,I find most people are not happy unless they feel they are manipulating other people to their own end.Even just watching tv we see entire networks who are fighting over ratings to the point I feel, that quality programming is falling to the wayside in the wake of sex and violence which as we know is the best ratings.In conclusion ,I can appreciate the simple things such as reading a good book or simply watching the night sky for shooting stars ,or as you mentioned walking through botanical gardens of which we do have some very nice ones in ft.worth texas.

  WW: Let's Get Something Straight About Jehovah

  by Francois in

  wholewheat:.

  jehovah is nothing more than the very primitive concept of who and what god is that was held by a primitive, savage, illiterate group of nomads inhabiting the middle eastern lavant five thousand years ago.. jehovah is on a par with other middle eastern gods of the time; no more no less.

  and we now discover through archaeology that jehovah had a wife.

  Worldwide mailing Campaign Fallout

  mailing campaign fallout.

  recently, kingdom halls of jehovahs witnesses were the largest group of intended recipients of an international mailing campaign, spanning all fifty states of the united states and including the countries of canada and england.. the results in the us have been interesting, and could have far-reaching effects on our legal system and on the preaching practices of jehovahs witnesses.. over a hundred years ago, a group of evangelical apocryphical persons calling themselves "bible students" began a campaign to sell bible-based literature at homes throughout the united states.

  from time to time, their effeorts faced legal challenges, some were won and some were lost, but in general the door-to-door campaigns have continued unabated, with varying degrees of success.

  They probly came to the conclusion that demons are now traveling through the mail system via the evelopes.They already believe the post office is run by satan so this is their logical next move in the spiritual warfare.

  WORLDWIDE LETTER MAILED

  by Dogpatch in

  2. friends

  on or about june 30, 2002, thousands of jehovah's witness elders around the world received a letter from "the worldwide .

  christian community" urging them fully to take on their voluntary responsibility as "shepherds of the flock of god" .

  with respect to child molestation that occurs among their "flock.

  I think we all know how they will view the criticism .As just another attack from a bunch of satan worshipers.So rest assured that it will have no impact on their policies and doctrine.A total waste of time and material to write and mail .In fact they will probly wind up with a bunch of watchtowers being mailed back. This is the first I've heard of this . good post SS [=:(]

  I won't cut my beard!

  some time ago i learned of the un affair & saw the truth...i am fading away now so i have not been attending meetings regularly for some time, specially the book study.

  two days ago, i learned that a letter was read in my book study regarding personal attire, and it was said that one should not grow a beard (this letter was not read in any of the other book studies).

  they say you are not a good christian, you are not spiritual, if you grow a beard.

  I agree they take the beard thing way to serious .When I was a book study I argued in favor of beards which seemed to cause all kinds of contreversy . They insisted that a beard was somekind of social status that represented radicals and homosexuals . What a f@^&k ing joke

  on msnbc and on fox, right now is leslie van houten....she is having a parole hearing.

  they just discussed the murders of the labianca's...she went into vivid detail on how she stabbed the wife and the sounds that the husband was making as he died.

  she is very articulate and old.

  The constitution states that the government is for the people by the people that no one can force a public servant to take a religious vow of any kind so I would have to go with the mention of God in a political pledge is unconstitutional. lol Amazing
