  in part one, i showed the overall average results for the survey.

  in this section, i will present the correlational results.

  correlations range in value from -1 to zero to +1.

  Larc,

  "Perhaps, things were less stressful many years ago, than they are more recently."

  I agree with this, though having been out at about the limit of your range, i have only my readings here for comparison.

  "Another possibility has to do with a faded memory of the past. There is a tendency to forget negative events from the past, and remember the good ones."

  That's possible. It's like the old joke about the French Foreign Legion: "I came here to forget". "Well, why are you here?" "I forgot".

  Question: does the introduction of the Baptism questions make any difference? I left slightly after that started. I certainly never was subjected to them. I suppose that was some measure of trying to screen the incoming and "improve quality". Would you be likely nto see a difference, based on that?

  A rolled up Watchtower is good for smashing spiders; but so is an Awake.

  just in case you thought that russell was the only nutter engaged in this kind of speculation, i found this article about a very recent prediction, based on khufu's pyramid:.

  Remember the old saying that "the Bible was a fiddle that you could play any tune on"? Well, watch out or your Pyramids will be used that way; it would be a shame for you to be misled by FALSE Pyramidology!!

  this will be complicated ( if you think any watchtower study article is 'deep', .

  give up now).

  so, according to popular images, god sits on a throne.

  Metro-one:

  It IS time some of what wrote is both said and considered.

  A couple of similar themes:

  Posited in a Sci-Fi story I once read was the question: If you set AUTOMATIC LATHES to making AUTOMATIC LATHES, how many generations will go by before they can't "reproduce"? The theme of the story was closer to having the "replicators" from Star Trek make more "replicators", but the question was asked about lathes. This gets into the controversial and mythical "tolerance stackup" of Engineering disciplines.

  One theory of the Gnostics proposes a "Crazy God". The "Crazy God" is only concerned with "production", as if he has a quota. You know, he's paid by the "piece". The "Crazy God" is only concerned with creating SOMETHING; if it is weird, doesn't make sense or is malevolent, so what!!! He doesn't go back, just on to the next thing to be created.

  Is it planned? Unknown, and maybe planning is not needed; just meet the quota and 'keep on truckin'!!! He made the mosquito, but he is not going to un-make it.

  here is a chance for everyone to post their thought as to who is the phenom known, at this moment, as know_you.

  his posts show me, among other things, the following: intelligence, well rounded education, christian background/faith, long time jw, perhaps not jw at the moment, likely british, moral code.

  for those reasons, i think he is who previously used the name hillary-step.

  Puruna has a Chow for all of the above. They seem to be generally superior to WTS Sheep Chow(tm).
