Buddha Answers Prayers

my son, jackson, was admitted to the hospital on monday.

he has asthma and had a severe enough attack that his lips began to turn blue.

at any rate, he hates hospitals, more to the point he hates ivs (can't say i blame him) as well as being awakened at 2:00 a.m. just to have blood pressure checked.

*oh gawd, having awful flash backs to daughter's hospitalizations*

Please, BT, find a good allergist and go through immunotherapy. It helped Salem ALOT.

and get a nebulizer for your self. Start treatment before getting to the hospital

.... therefore, i want to devote the last years of my life (i am 72)to more positive, upbuilding activities such as giving a testimony to my faith through manifesting the fruits of the spirit, attempting to minister to the widows and orphans in their affliction, and to giving a positive witness through my writing.

The Battle For God

by Shakita in

i have been reading a book by karen armstrong entitled: the battle for god.

in this book she relates the history of the big three religions, christianity, islam and judaism from about the 1400's to our day.

i highly recommend this book for everyone here to read.

I recommend all of Karen Armstrong's books. Very eye opening, to say the least.

Should I send this response or not?

i sent an email to my brother about a new truck i bought and got a reply about how the end of this system is so close and i should really return to jehovah.

as far as going back to the meetings, no thanks.

i've had my fill of having my life ran by a religion.

Nice letter, HB. But you know that you will be labeled an *gasp* apostate. All the things you list that bother you are exactly the buss words the elders are watching for to label "apostate".

I hope you can crack your family's foundation, but don't be surprised that they start shunning you. I found in the past that one thing dropped at an interesting time may help people listen. Too much info overwhelms and labels are applied.

Just my 2 cents.

My hubby & I donated CoC and ISOCF to our local library. We told them it was needed in the area. They put it up on the shelve right away.

We also donated a copy of both to the library where my parents live. They sold them at the next library sale.

Be sure they will put them on the shelve.

And welcome to the board.

This is about out beloved Dansk

by mouthy in

how sorry i was to hear from dansk-he is going through a very difficult time.. i would like all prayers, thoughts, please keep this in mind ____ for me!!!!.

the sad news he has cancer.it is lymphoma!!!

they are waiting on the results of the biopsy before determining treatment..... he didnt want me to say anything at first- as he feels you all have your own problems & he didnt want to upset anyone-because he says "they are dear friends".
