  after plugging in terry's hints I am sure it is sophia ( The hints where close to Nag Hammadi, Thunder , perfect mind) They pointed me to gnostic beliefs the primary one being sophia (also known as wisdom) the female face of god)

  Thunder, Perfect Mind

  For I am the first and the last.
  I am the honored one and the scorned one.
  I am the whore and the holy one.
  I am the wife and the virgin.
  I am the mother and the daughter.
  I am the members of my mother.
  I am the barren one

  and many are her sons.
  
  I am she whose wedding is great,

  and I have not taken a husband.
  I am the midwife and she who does not bear.
  I am the solace of my labor pains.
  I am the bride and the bridegroom,

  and it is my husband who begot me.
  I am the mother of my father

  and the sister of my husband

  and he is my offspring.
  
  I am the slave of him who prepared me.
  I am the ruler of my offspring.
  But he is the one who begot me before the time on a birthday.
  And he is my offspring in (due) time,
  and my power is from him.
  
  I am the staff of his power in his youth,
  and he is the rod of my old age.
  And whatever he wills happens to me.
  I am the silence that is incomprehensible and the idea whose remembrance is frequent.
  I am the voice whose sound is manifold and the word whose appearance is multiple.
  I am the utterance of my name.

  i have a lot of memories of attending assemblies there for 30 years.

  does anyone remember all the purple coloring?

  remember that guy who used to wave a stick like he was conducting an orchestra except there was no orchestra, only a guy playing the piano and the audience singing?.

  I was baptized there, I remember how nice the pond looked before they fenced it in so no one could use it. I directed the tv control board once, I never did again due to the restrictions put on me. ( what shots to take, how many times you could change the camera angle) no wonder everyone talked in cafeteria during the sessions. The program on tv was the ultimate in boring. lol

  His obituary is so short . How sad. I wonder if that was because so many of his JW family disagreed with his beliefs?

  Rabies infection is caused by the rabies virus. The virus is spread through the saliva of infected animals. Infected animals can spread the virus by biting another animal or person. In rare cases, rabies can be spread when infected saliva gets into an open wound or the mucous membranes, such as the mouth or eyes. This could occur if an infected animal were to lick an open cut on your skin.

  I'm pretty sure there are very good and less painful drugs for rabies these days. Used to be, you'd get an extremely painful series of shots through the stomach, or something like that. Now you get a series of painful ones in the tush.

  I just wanted to address this misconception. Rabies is a viral infection. There is no known cure for rabies . The series of shots you get imediately after being bitten are a vaccine given to prevent you from contracting rabies. it is very important to get this vaccine as soon as possible after potential exposure. The disease of rabies is almost always fatal. The shots are no longer given in the abdomen. I have included the reference below. Treatments and drugs

  By Mayo Clinic staff

  There is no specific treatment for rabies infection. Though a small number of people have survived rabies, the disease is usually fatal.

  Rabies shots include:

  • A fast-acting shot to prevent the virus from infecting you. This injection is given near the area where the animal bit you as soon as possible after the bite.
  • A series of rabies vaccines to help your body learn to identify and fight the rabies virus. Rabies vaccines are given as injections in your arm. You receive six injections over 28 days.

  His response is even better, he missed the sarcasm completely

  It's appalling how these apostates just want to disrupt our worship. The FDS has warned us about these people who want to praise Jesus and ignore Jehovah and his earthly organisation. BTW we had over 200 attend our memorial which was an increase and 3 people partook again another increase, Jehovah is surely blessing our congregation.

  it is also funny that he does not realize the number of partakers should be going down
