I think the thing to look into is their accreditation. Who accredits them? It needs to be one of the major accreditation boards, not "Joe's Appliance Repair and Accreditation Board" or something like that. If they are fully accredited, there is a good likelihood that their education is of high quality and that the credits you earn there will transfer for a higher degree. Even if you don't plan to seek a higher degree, it is a good idea to make sure your credits are transferable because 1) it shows that you have received a quality education that will speak well of you to prospective employers and 2) you might change your mind about an advanced degree later on.

Is Identification Mandatory?
by cameo-d inguess bob dylan didn't think so.. apparently, he was "caught" strolling in the city and curious cops wanted to know why he was walking around.. cops then escorted him to his hotel where he had friends who vouched for him.. http://www.abcnews.go.com/us/wirestory?id=8332031.
so my question is....is it illegal to walk on the street without identification?.
if you are without id what are the usual consequences?.

As a side not, I saw Dylan in concert last year...and after that performance I would have arrested him for grand theft!!
Interesting, I saw him in concert last month and thought it was one of the better performances I've seen him give. It was probably my 15th or 16th Dylan concert. He did something on one song that I don't recall seeing before: took center stage with no guitar or keyboard and just sang (and played harmonica in the appropriate parts) with the band backing him. It was very impressive to see. The song was "Forgetful Heart," a number from his new album that came out this past spring.
I wonder if this will spur a new album of social commentary?
The word on the Internet these days is that he is working on a Christmas album.

Modalists believe, in essence, that God puts on different "masks" at different times, appearing as Father, Son or Holy Spirit as the occasion demands, but that there is only one Person who is God. Trinitarians believe that there are three distinct Persons who comprise the one Being known as God.
Whether you are Trinitarian depends on how you define your terms. For example, when you say that "the Holy Spirit is God's active spirit with all his qualities," do you include the quality of personality? It does seem hard to imagine that something or someone who has emotions, intellect and will (all of which are attributed to the Holy Spirit in the Bible) could be less than personal. Also, when you say that Jesus is the Son of God, do you mean that in the ontological sense that has been understood by Christians for 2000 years, i.e., that He is God Himself by nature, as the son of a man is human by nature? Or do you understand "Son" as the JW's do, to mean a created being who derives his life from a Father?
JW's often make the mistake of confusing modalism for Trinitarianism, which is why they ask questions like, "whom did Jesus pray to," or "who ran the universe while Jesus was dead for 3 days?" The WTS also has deliberately muddied the issue by referring to the Trinity as a teaching of "three gods." It's no wonder JW's find the doctrine confusing.

Do you know the real purpose of the Society?
by compound complex inthe following notes on fred franz's conducting of the morning bible discussion [17 november 1979] were taken by a bethelite and later given to ray franz:.
some persons are now talking about reading the bible, that we should read "just the bible.
" well, that's what christendom's churches have been telling the people to do for centuries and look at the mess that's resulted.

... Topics must relate to the 19th century "history" theme of this site, and must NOT speak negatively of Jehovah's Witnesses, the Society, or the "Pioneers".
That's going to be pretty hard to do, since the truth about the Society's origins will tend to reflect negatively upon the organization. As they study the history of the Society, are they allowed to mention all the silly teachings and false prophecies?

>>Also I saw the most hilarious bathroom bros. - Three 'brothers' standing in front of the sis's bathroom. Two holding a sign saying "closed" and one in the middle holding a sign saying "cleaning in progress"
They probably needed to have three guys guarding the door in case any nasty apostates tried to burst into the bathroom and disrupt the important work of Jehovah's organization.
