Welcome POESS (Rose). You are a very smart individual.

it was a while back, maybe a year or two.
Welcome POESS (Rose). You are a very smart individual.

i was doing some research on the subject of beliefs and belief systems when i came across an on-line survey/test that supposedly helps you determine which religion or philosophy is most like your current beliefs.
if you're curious, you can take the quiz here: belief system selector quizafter answering the 20 questions the results were spit out!
tada!!!.
Thanks for this, I got a kick out of it!
Apparently, I am 100% secular humanist. Unitarian Universalism is #2 at 85%.
But this is my favorite part:
Dead last at #27 is Jehovah's Witness (0%).
Yessssssss!!!!
and war broke out in heaven: michael and his angels battled with the dragon, and the dragon and its angels battled but it did not prevail, neither was a place found for them any longer in heaven.
so down the great dragon was hurled, the original serpent, the one called devil and satan, who is misleading the entire inhabited earth; he was hurled down to the earth, and his angels were hurled down with him.
- revelation 12:7-9. this took no time at all, for it is written:w97 5/1 p.29remember that according to revelation 12:9, 10, with the establishment of gods heavenly kingdom in 1914, satan was cast down to the vicinity of the earth.but it took jesus three years to figure out who his true followers were on earth.
Isn't there some quote somewhere that claims the war in heaven took many months until satan was thrown out?
These things take time.
was just talking to my mom on my phone about the convention in green bay, wisconsin.
she said the brothers were talking about wanting satan dead for good!
(i was like, oh, well, yeah, i agree, in my mind i was dying laughing!).
Once they kill Satan off, who's left to blame all the bad stuff on?
it's some kind of funny... i was the perfect little ass, even that i never believe it all.. there was something that doesn't sound right... but, i was little, i was with my family, i never believe that my family will make me adopt a cult.
well i get batized in my mid teen years, i was the exemplar, ms at 19, even serve my time at bethel.
get married to a pioneer, start a spiritual family, get my 2 kids.
