one point that has played many times on my mind (and is fairly central to my world view) is that if god exists its up to him to prove it.
what would it take for you to accept god?

Wait..

there has to be a large parted body of water between me and that signing.......

fact: a statement or assertion of verified information about something that is the case or has happened
i've read the bible many times in many ways with many methods.
but, i don't really see in it any information that contains factual material that benefits anybody.
Yes it does........
but, only in the Song Of Solomon!

i used to live with many regrets, thinking that i'd screwed up.
recently, i've been thinking that regretting past actions is not constructive.
sure, we should base our current actions by assessing the results of our former actions, but regretting decisions we've made is, in effect, yearning to change the person we are now or rejecting ourselves.
Go to yer rooms and don't come out till yer homework is done....the both of yas!!!!

I suspect that people that live in the moment are far less likely to even entertain that fantasy. I personally, would change nothing...the good, the bad or the ugly (yes, I like my spaghetti with a western sauce).
All those past stitches make up the fabric of your current being so I guess it all boils down to whether you like the person peeking back at you in the mirror.

i have been on this board for around four years.
at first i took what went on here quite seriously, well for about three weeks, but it then became quite obvious to me that the depth of role-playing that went on on these boards was so deep-rooted that it would be a foolish waste of time to do anything more than to read some of the more informative threads and delegate the rest to entertainment.
i hope narkissos forgives me for quoting something that he wrote yesterday, but his thought clearly encapuslates the reason why it is foolish to presume that you know, or will ever know the person who is posting by what they write, and why judgments on a persons character are more than often fatally flawed.
If your wife ran off with the milkman cleaning out your bank account and killing your pet pigeons, you would love her without condition?
Why, yes, of course.....
the glorious relief from obligation to those demanding nasty fowl far outweighs any and all of the minor financial and emotional discomforts incurred when one allows themself to view the picture from a much broader spectrum.

there are some conflicting views on this subject; when i was a teenage jw i was friends with someone of the opposite sex and we were the best of mates...nothing sexual, no attraction in that department at all but it was frowned upon by those in the congregation (as you can probably imagine).. my ex wife never believed a man and woman could be just platonic...hence no longer with her...but..now being somewhat older (and a teeny bit wiser .
what do you think though, do you think a man and woman can be just friends and more importantly has this view been changed since leaving the jw's?.
