for what it is worth i wanted to pass this along.. we are all aware of those convienient brackets used in the new world translation.
the infamous colossians 1:16....."because by means of him all ((((other)))))) things were created...".
at the very bottom of the first page of their bible ...the foreword.... it says.
I think if you look at the predicate nomative adjectively, the adjective becomes an advance pronoun and thus would render all of the above posts ultra-claritive! But if the verb or adverb is a proactive then the subject is considered misantropic or as French translators would say 'purlieu' in structure. So, that should end the argument right there!

everyone wants to be liked but how important is popularity to you?
i can honestly say i've little desire to be popular but i do know i need to feel loved.
perhaps it's something to do with maturity (not age).
When you're too 'popular' everyone wants a piece of you, and it's very hard to live a normal life! I need a little rest in my older age!

i have recently been the recipient of a 30 plus minute presentation via phone of the melaleuca home based business opportunity.
what i would like to know is there anyone who uses the board that has any experience with them.
they are based out of idaho falls, idaho and before i even contemplate getting involved i intend to do some heavy researching all you comments to this effect would be greatly appreciated.
My personal feelings is the company is either owned or run by JW's. I signed up for a couple things from my JW daughter, and when I tried to later halt/cancel any future orders it was a real problem. You could not hardly cancel unless you got a lawyer!
Stay away from it.

is anyone familiar with this upcoming event?
or know anyone who attends?.
i had "met" a few gals when i first left the wts (seven years ago) who talked about this convention....one was from western ny....but i have since lost touch with them and lost their email addies years ago.
Been there once, several years back and throughly enjoyed it! Would like to attend again in the future if I can.

while in the borg, we seemed to be focused on people, but it was false, only looking for opportunities to 'convert', 'study with', 'help them into the truth'.. i have noticed that i take a genuine interest in others now.
those i meet in public, my gay child care provider, her childen, her partner.
parents of other children we meet at events [we care for our grandkids].
I've found that I not only like people more and accept most as they are, but that they like me more too. When I recently went through some serious health/financial problems they were more than there for me! And not for any wrong motives!
So, I say to myself, "Welcome back to the human race".
Outaservice (Hey, anyone out there willing to lend me $20?)
many jws sold their homes and moved across country to serve where the need was great.
in the last couple of years i have remembered several people who moved from western canada to quebec where we were told the need was great out west.
some sacrificed their families, friends to go it alone.
I took 2 years of French in school and all I learned to say was 'Adios'!
