Of course, I attributed every positive thing that happened that I had prayed about as an answer via the spirit, but only once did I ever feel anything. As odd an experience as it was, I believe now it was a purely subjective experience.

can an ai (adobe Illus) file be converted to Corel 12?
by SnakesInTheTower injust a shout out to poster georgiegirl (or anyone who can do this).... is it possible to downgrade an .ai file (i believe this is in adobe illustrator v. 10) down to an adobe illustrator version 7 file?
or convert to coreldraw 12?
the shop that we took it to locally is using cd12...and only has adobe 7. personally i wouldnt have used that particular shop for printing or anything... for one particular use, we are piggybacking on another organization and they made the decision to use that vendor.

I searched around and this seems to be a good reference for handling these files. Generally the suggestion is to save the AI file as an EPS, but there are some cautions about doing that and instructions for doing it correctly in this document. Hope it helps.

They're real, but as with any marriage they come with expectations. Suddenly realizing you're married to an unbeliever is not something most witnesses expect to happen to them. And the bigger an issue that is to them, the more that sole factor will affect the stability of the relationship. If their self-identity is defined by being one of JW's then our rejection of the organization must feel like a huge rejection of them personally. Also, they're so programmed to believe that anyone who leaves will become changed for the worse, some probably run in fear of what they think they'll be forced to live with instead of seeing reality right in front of their eyes.

Wow...as usual, they've sucked 99% of anything personal and meaningful out of the event. This sounds more like you're entering into a legal and binding contract with JW's than making a dedication to God.

Hello VIII! They must think you've forgotten that Armageddon is right around the corner. And they must think that god won't notice if you're serving him only to save your own neck. But, in fairness, if they truly believe this stuff, they're afraid of losing you, which is natural. They just don't realize that this kind of 'encouragement' really has just the opposite effect. If nothing else, this will probably help you to crystalize in your own mind what you really do and don't believe at this point. Screaming into the pillow at this point is better than saying something that might bring consequences you're not ready for yet.

Comments you will NOT hear at the Congregation Bible Study Week Starting March 9
by LUKEWARM ini have recently joined after spending over 12 months lurking reading posts and evaluating/digesting the truth about the truth.
i learned all about ray franz here and after reading both of his books feel a great deal of appreciation toward the man for what i can only describe as a labour of love on his part.. .
(romans 9:1) how, though, can we make sure that our conscience is in harmony with jehovahs holy spirit?

They have nicely redefined conscience to mean 'programming.' One could get along quite nicely, in fact maybe more comfortably, without a conscience while being programmed by the organization.
