i made my piece with death in vietnam many years ago, it is just that i don't have any peace when a loved one dies. How is that peaceful for christsakes, your dead, no peace, no anxiety, you feel nothing so how would you feel peaceful?

Making peace with death
by mankkeli inhave you come to grips with the reality of dieing and ending it all, for many it was an unfathomable reality especially with the idea that many now living will never die.. but have you made peace with death?, have you resolved in your mind that death is not a painful reality and it is unfair to cheat it..

How do you feel about not seeing your dead loved ones again?
by highdose init always felt rather unatural the thought of seeing people who had been dead for years.
how would they come to terms with the huge passage of time that had passed?
how would they be able to cope with the fact that their family had probably hugely changed since they had died.

devastated but realistically, that is what is not going to happen the seeing of dead loved ones, but i see mine everyday and night in my mind and it always makes me sad but also makes me smile when I remember all the time we had together. They are always resurrected whenever you remember them, they just like you will pass from memory after all the eons have passed.

So a question arises, can one get a copy of that evaluation? Me thinks not, they want to screw you but leave you without the condom so to speak to prove that they did. One night stand so to speak?

Jdubs are as important as toe jam, no one sees or gives a damn, but if the occasion arose, I would publicly try to embarass them.

got news for them, the US Army always did bloodless surgery if possible, i know having been under the knife several times while i was in the Army, they always mentioned that they may use transfusion if needed, guess i never needed it but it was my experience even coming in from the battle field that unless you had a large loss of blood they didn't use it. and I was medivac on two occasions from getting it in the field never used a transfusion either time so it wasn't something that was always used only when actually needed from large losses of bloodf, speaking from my experience only.

family didn't donate
by ssn587 ina friend told me recently that he isn't having much if anything ever to do again with his siblings, his spouse passed away, and yet none of his brothers and sisters have donated a dime to help with the funeral costs or anything else, the siblings didn't even send flowers to the funeral.
he is saing that's it, they have been written off of his list to ever help if and when they have this problem.
the siblings aren't even jdubs.

OTWO no not even a card, which like i said pisses him off cause when one sibling lost a child he donated big time to help them out, he is or was always helping them out when in time of need. They are all better off than he is, he is retired and on a fixed income, and now is really cutting corners to try and pay off the funeral costs and make ends meet. when another siblings spouse died he again helped out sent card and money to help with expenses for both parties and now when its their turn so to speak they blow him off. He wont be getting any insurance her health wouldn't ever let her get any so he is on the dole for all of it. And yes they all live away from him but my gosh, It is people like me that are trying to help and it pisses me off too to say the least. Now he knows.
scully: well for sure what didn't come around this time will bite them in the arse when they lose a spouse thats for sure he is finally waking up to their lack of care now.

"All Scripture is inspired of God and Beneficial" .....
by smiddy indid you just take that scripture at face value ?
beleiving it to be so ?.
was" all scripture is inspired by god" written down at that one time ?
-

Since early Christians used the Septuagint that is the only thing that 2 Tim. 3:16 could refer to as possibly "inspired." hope that answers your thoughts on the subject.

From the Watchtower of February 1, 1989 pp. 27-30
"In the third century B.C.E., Jewish scholars in Alexandria, Egypt, produced the Greek Septuagint version the Hebrew
Scriptures, which came to be use by Greek-speaking Jews all over the world. In time the Jews stopped using it, but it became
the Bible of the early Christian congregation. When Christian Bible writes quoted from the sacred Hebrew Scripotures, they used
the Septuagint. The Chester Beatty papyri of the Hebrew Scripotures include 13 pages of the book of Daniel in the Septuagint.
