"It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure,
to embrace the new. But there is no real security
in what is no longer meaningful. There is more security
in the adventurous and exciting, for in movement there is life,
and in change there is power."

Dumbest Awake Title Ever?

by metatron in

i hold in my hand the nov. awake magazine entitled "technology - blessing or curse?"..

now, i understand the need for balance and moderation in using technology, as the magazine says - but could they come up with a more intelligent sounding title?

it makes the question sound as if abandoning technology might be a solution, a considered choice, a real possibility.

Did you ever feel dissatisfied by the quality of 'proof' from the FDS?

hey!.

i have tried to debate evolution/ark a couple of times with witnesses.

two of these were elders, and one had the benefit of conversing with me over mail; he also showed an interest and knowledge on some scientific subjects that told me he had studied it a bit by himself.

Nope, I swallowed it all - unfortunately

but I know much better now

Has an elder ever made a difference in your life?

ok, i've read a lot of horror stories out there about outrageous shepherding calls so i know they exist.

i've also been on several and received 2.. however, as an elder i thought i was pretty capable at helping people and making a difference in their lives.

i've had people tell me so over and over which was quite comforting to me after i was unceremoniously removed.. so here's my question......has anyone out there ever been the recipient of the kind of loving care from elders that made a positive difference in your life?
