  I hear this one all the time. whenever we get a large snowfall, a heat wave, a windstorm, fires, untimely frost. Oh the weather has changed lately and it's getting worse, we must be getting close to the end because of all the weird weather.

  My reply is yea that would be great if we are near the end because of the weather, but that's not one of the signs of the last days.

  silence from jw

  yea I say the last time I read the bible I didn't read anything about weird weather indicating we were close to the end. I must have missed that scripture. What was that scripture again that said weird weather meant that armageddon is close?

  silence and they change the subject

  preparing students for careers is just one important part of what colleges do. For example, in a recent national survey conducted by the Pew Research Center, more than 90% of college graduates reported that college helped them grow intellectually and mature as individuals. College expands students' horizons, exposes them to ideas and fields of study they might not encounter otherwise

  I know he's dead but Elvis Presley wasn't really that great.

  He never really played anything much as far as instuments and never really wrote any songs.

  the last few years of his life he really was a terrible performer

  Today, anyone with an Internet
  connection can become a desktop professor,
  pretending to be in the know, without even
  revealing his name.

  So I guess by "extension" anyone can become a bible scholar and translate the scriptures

  without even revealing his name.
