I myself don't use mags, or anything else when i go out for my 3 to 4 hours per year, have been asked in the past as to why I don't use or rather am not passing out the memorial or other partiular tracts and told them, that isn't ministry, that is working for a pub company and i won't be the overt in doing it. and for another matter, it isn't any of your business how I conduct or don't conduct my particular ministry. That shuts them up as I am somewhat intimidating (as that seems to be the way I have been told that i portray myself). They are at best busy bodies and always want to bother you about somethng. I ignore them for the most part, don't talk to them or with them, i am the proverbial hermit/loner or whatever. but it works i get left alone most all of the time and I like that fine.

all ammunition should first be rubbed with bacon, or if one can stand it pig shit. They don't deserve anymore than that. Those people don't think like we do and we shouldn't be worrying about being PC just to kiss their arses. vapor bombs sounds good too. you don't put up with craziness from idiots.

I have read several of Ehrman's books, and have enjoyed them all, with a gusto, even though some of them go over the same things then that is okay with me, memory rote sort of thing, puts them in my mind and makes them easier to recall. Nothing like a reminder that a book (bible) that is supposedly inerrant is so chock full of holes it resembles swiss cheese. OH we read ad enjoy or not. all have a good day.

The real story about the tea party movement
by lifeisgood ini started this thread because some people are telling lies in another thread about the tea party.. i am one of the volunteers that helps arrange and put on tea party rallies in southern mississippi.
we do not have a membership roll.. we are not a political party.. we have one basic issue that we are addressing, which is: we want federal spending to be lower than federal revenues.
we do not say how this is to be achieved.. some liars on this site are claiming that the tea parties are actively pushing to achieve the balanced budget by cutting only liberal policies.

who was it that dominated congress those 30 years? Wasn't it taxes and more taxation that drove businesses overseas where it is cheaper to operate? whomever was at fault it is still time to balance the budget whomever is in charge.

The Faithful and Discreet NOSTRADAMUS
by Terry inwould you believe the governing body of jehovah's witnesses has something in common with nostradamus?.
nostradamus and fred franz wrote prophetically in seemingly specific words which were complicated and required belief and interpretation.. nostradamus came up with a pill to prevent the plague.
fred franz came up with watchtower theolgoy that would prevent death at armageddon.. nostradamus used as his sources just about every seer, prophet, astrologer and biblical soothsayer he could work into a quatrain.. the gullible bought in and found "meaning".

I normally counted my time for the month on the first of the month, throw a dart at the calendar and whatever date it lands on is the amount of time turned in without of course wasting time doing it. Sounds fair don't you think?
