Wow, I'm so sorry for the children. I wonder if there is another way for your mother to get custody of the children, other than waiting on CPS to take action...or even better, I wonder if their Daddy would be willing to sue your sister for custody.

no sweaty blood
by peacefulpete inwe all remember the story in luke 22:44 where in jesus in agonizing prayer begins to sweat blood.
remember the extremely rare medical condition where a person being tortured can sweat blood that was cited as proof that the bible was true and how this should deepen our appreciation for the sacrifice of jesus?
well the footnote in the reference bible reveals that the earliest and best manuscripts of the nt do not have verses 43&44.

Not much to do with JW's...
by Tuesday inbut cool news literally.
i was on a benefit(pro-wrestling) show for the pawtucket mills fire which left some people homeless and abc 6 (rhode island area) taped a bunch of my stuff and almost exclusively showed my match for the news cast.
it was pretty cool we picked up my sister at 9:00 from the airport and when we got back to our house it was on.

That you're using your talents to help other people is wonderful! And it feels great to have your efforts acknowledged, doesn't it?
Way to go, Tuesday!

My favourite article...
by Bofug ini love this article!
in 1910 russell wrote, "if anyone lays the scripture studies aside, even after he has used them, after he has become familiar with them, after he has read them for ten years?if he lays them aside and ignores them and goes to the bible alone, though he has understood the bible for ten years, our experience shows that within two years he goes into darkness.
on the other hand, if he had merely read the scripture studies with their references and had not read a page of the bible, as such, he will be in the light at the end of two years .

Sometimes I wonder if everyone (including the "victim") on Punk'd is in on the joke and just acting to entertain the audience.

How many times have your sister's children been treated by medical professionals for the injuries she's inflicted upon them?
If her children were removed from her home, who in your family would be willing to take them in?
Besides you and CPS, who else knows that the children are being abused?

Threat level raised to "Orange"
by DanTheMan inhttp://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=514&e=1&u=/ap/20031221/ap_on_go_ca_st_pe/terror_threat
i'm feeling very antsy, i've been waiting for a much bigger "other shoe to drop" since 9/11.. i don't know if it's all the years of the apocalyptic jw thinking but i still live with a haunting fear that the whole works is headed for a spectacular crash.
i wonder how helpless chinese villagers felt when they saw ghenghis khan's hordes on the horizon heading toward them.

Sometimes I talk with a good friend about my "worst case scenario" fears, and the response I receive helps, even if it is only a much-needed reality check.
It does help me to tune out from time to time. I find that when I tune back in, everything is pretty much the same as when I left anyway.
Take care

Secret Santa II......
by Gadget ini've just read in another thread that due to circumstances the secret santa for this year hasn't been able to happen, so i want to try and organise another one!.
according to the lady at the post office, the closing date for international mail to be delivered before xmas is this week, but for post on the same continent we still have a few weeks so i'll try and take that into account so everyone can have their prezzy before christmas day.
