african american family press has printed "rappin' with jesus---the good news according to the four brothers".
let me point out some excerpts from this "bible".....from the word according to john," one pharisee brother named nicodemus came to jesus one night.
"look, teach," he said to jesus.
I just had to Ebonify a Watchtower article. I want to give a shout out to Brooklin, maybe you should give this a try.
How Should We Pray? "Teach Us How ta Pray" "LORD, teach us how ta pray." That request wuz made by one o' da disciples o' Jesus Christ. (Luke 11:1) The unnamed disciple wuz obviously uh nig wiff deep appreciation fo' prayer. True worshipers taday similarly recognize its importance. After all, prayer iz da means by which we's gain audience wiff da Highest Personage in da universe! And just th'o't! The "Hearer o' prayer" gives personal attention ta our concerns an' anxieties. (Psalm 65:2) More important, by means o' prayer, we's render thanks an' praise ta God.?Philippians 4:6. Nevertheless, da werdz "teach us how ta pray" raise some serious questions. Throughout da world many methods o' approaching God iz used by different religions. But iz dere uh right an' uh wrong way ta pray? In answer, let us first take uh peep at some o' da popular religious customs dat involve prayer. We will focus on those practiced in Latin America. Images an' "Patron Saints" Generally, Latin-American countries iz deeply religious. For example, throughout Mexico one can observe da popular practice o' praying ta "patron saints." Indeed, it iz customary fo' Mexican towns ta gots "patron saints" fo' whom festivals iz held on certain days. Mexican Catholics also pray ta uh great variety o' images. Which "saint" iz invoked, however, depends upon what type o' request da worshiper desires ta make. If someone iz looking fo' uh person ta marry, he might light uh candle ta "Saint" Anthony. Someone about ta embark on an `64 trip might commend himself ta "Saint" Christopher, patron o' travelers, particularly o' motorists. Where, though, did such customs originate? History shows dat when da Spaniards arrived in Mexico, dey found uh populace devoted ta da worship o' pagan gods. In his book Los Aztecas, Hombre y Tribu (Aztecs, da Man an' da Tribe), Victor Wolfgang von Hagen says: "There wuz personal gods, each plant had its god, each function its god or goddess, even suicides had one. Yacatecuhtli wuz da businessmen'sdeity. In dis here polytheistic world, all da gods had clearly defined tendencies an' functions." The resemblance o' deez gods ta Catholic "saints" wuz so striking dat when da Spanish conquerors tried ta "Christianize" da natives, deez simply switched allegiance from they idols ta church "saints." An article in The Wall Street Journal acknowledged da heathen roots o' da Catholicism practiced in some parts o' Mexico. It noted dat in one area, most o' da 64 "saints" venerated by da populace corresponded ta "specific Mayan gods." The New Catholic Encyclopedia argues dat "between saint an' those on earth dere iz established uh bond o' confident intimacy, . . . uh bond dat, far from detracting from da relationship wiff Christ an' wiff God, enriches an' deepens it." But how could uh bond dat iz clearly uh vestige o' paganism deepen one'srelationship wiff da true God? Could prayers dat iz offered ta such "saints" really please God? The Origin o' da Rosary Another popular custom involves da use o' da rosary. Diccionario Enciclopédico Hispano-Americano (Hispanic-American Encyclopedic Dictionary) describes da rosary as uh "string o' fiddy or one hundred an' fiddy beads separated into tens by others o' larger size an' joined at da ends by uh crucifix, presently preceded by three beads." Explaining how da rosary iz used, one Catholic publication says: "The Holy Rosary iz uh form o' vocal an' mental prayer about da Mysteries o' our redemption. It iz made up o' fifteen decades. Each decade consists o' reciting da Lord'sPrayer, ten Hail Marys, an' uh Gloria Patri. A mystery iz meditated upon during each decade." The mysteries iz doctrines, or teachings, dat Catholics should know, in dis here case referring ta da life, suffering, an' death o' Christ Jesus. The World Book Encyclopedia says: "Early forms o' praying wiff uh rosary began in Christianity during da Middle Ages, but became widespread only in da 1400'san' 1500 's." Is da use o' da rosary exclusive ta Catholicism? No. Diccionario Enciclopédico Hispano-Americano states: "Similar beads iz in use in Islamic, Lamaist an' Buddhist worship." Indeed, da Encyclopedia o' Religion an' Religions notes: "It has been suggested dat da Mohammedans derived da Rosary from da Buddhists, an' da Christians from da Mohammedans at da tyme o' da Crusades." Some argue dat da rosary merely serves as uh memory aid when da repetition o' uh number o' prayers iz required. But iz God pleased wiff its use? We do not need ta speculate about or debate da appropriateness or validity o' such customs. Jesus gave an authoritative response ta da request ta teach his followers how ta pray. What he said will enlighten an' perhaps surprise some readers. Appeared in Watchtower July 15, 1996 you know das right! |

Rayzorblade,
I kept the Jesus-Mentos picture in the lid of my tool box at a previous job I was layed off from. I worked next to a zealous Baptist. Nearly every day she would shake her head at that picture. For a couple of years she tolerated that picture, but I know deep inside she wanted to rip it off of my tool box lid.
ok, to the point, who got the best deal in the marriage agreement, you or your spouse?
my answer is, me.
my wife got ripped off.. no need for details when replying.
Do you mean in a Jehovah's Witness style of marriage? Definitly the man has the upper hand in most if not all things.
In my marriage agreement, I kinda have the upper hand because my wife prefers to delegate to me. She prefers being the traditional "house wife." However, any time she wants to take over anything I currently do, she can. But we always consult each other in making decisions.

Yum, can I have seconds?
Jesus, may I have one of your Mentos?
my wife and i are re-doing our wills and it has led me to reflect alot on life.
in making a will you are basically preparing for death and setting your house in order so that there is no confusion afterwards and your loved ones are looked after.
i do plan on living to a ripe old age but in life things can happen and i could be dead tomorrow.
A will is something I still can't bring myself to do either. I don't know why either. Am I afraid? Perhaps. Am I just being lazy. Always, lazy is just another word for smart for me. (Never do something that somebody else can do.) But still, all kidding aside, this thread moved me and perhaps I need to give thought to making a will.

By the way, Rayzorblade, every time I look at your picture I get this splitting headache right around my forehead, can't quite figure it out.
