so what jw doctrines do you still agree with?
how about the trinity?
do you believe in hell?
No Hell
No Trinity
No Immortal soul
Of course, I also don't believe the following:
No God
Bible is not the word of God
etc....
I may be a little conflicted because I believe that the Bible does contain some foundation for the following beliefs:
Literal Hell, although there are other conflicting threads of thought
Trinity, although not explicitly developed
Immortal Soul, although not consistently found through out the Bible

i'm so confused..my daughter has two teenage children, they are a girl just turned 16 and a boy 17... when i was at her house watching tv with them..they made the kids cover their eyes when sex scenes came on.
now she just told me they both seperately went with friends to see the last "saw" movie.... since when is sawing someone up ok to watch but not sex?.
snoozy..a confused grandma...who isn't aloud to voice her opinion....
steve2,
When more homosexual couples start having and raising children at the same volume as heterosexuals, maybe this trend will change.
Just kidding.
Well maybe a little serious though.

How many here feel comfortable setting with their teenage (or younger) children and watching a rather explicit sex scene.
Saying that you would rather have your children watch sex over violence may sound fine, but in reality it's not quite that simple.
Most normal children realize that it is absolutely wrong to commit an act of violence against another person. Watching a violent movie is seen as nothing more than entertainment, no sane person would actually consider such acts. On the other hand, we can almost guarantee that every normal teenager is going to eventually have sex. Allowing them to watch it in our presence could be confused as giving our approval to try it themselves.
I could not comfortably set and watch sex scenes with my children when they were younger. I usually changed the channel, fast-forwarded, etc. I doubt that I would be comfortable with it now that they are in their twenties. I have however set and watched many a horror movie with them without giving it a second thought.

...not.
think of a prime number greater than three.. square it and subtract one from the result.. the result will alway be dividable by 24.. (example: 7 7 = 49, 49 - 1 = 48 ).
true or false?
.
Here are the results of doing this to the first 500 prime numbers (skipping 2 and 3).

hi,i'm looking for anybody that was in the ardmore area from the mid 70's to the mid 90's.sooner7nc
anyone ever eat at molly murphys in okc
Yeah, I took the family there once. It was entertaining. They really did try to embarrass us. We had never been there and didn't know what to expect.
The most shocking thing was the bill for a family of four. It's not the place to go when you're on a tight budget.

Wow, this thread brings back memories.
I used to take my ex-wife to the Myriad (early to mid-90's). I was the un-believing mate, so I would do pretty much what I wanted. I walked round and round through the halls, went outside, anything to beat the boredom. It was great though to go to OKC for the weekend, but the assemblies were pretty much un-bearable.
The last time I went, an elderly Witness lady tripped and fell while walking down the steps on the upper level. She hit her head really hard on one of the concrete landings. I remember feeling really sorry for her and couldn't help thinking if she would have only stayed at home instead of coming to the stupid assembly, she would have been much better off.

Are you still in OK?
Still here. No plans to leave.
I guess the fact that there are so few of us from Oklahoma shows that people here must be pretty smart.

Welcome.
I guess this would be a good time to mention that I'm also from Oklahoma.

and the past 4 months we have been having problems.
i posted on the board in the past about the first incident.. but we decided to work on it since she seemed genuinely remorseful... it is hard to beleive now that she abandoned all her morals, her religion, family and friends to persue this pipe dream..... it all started out like this.
but i guess the little things like that meant nothing.
I'm so sorry you are going through this.
She sounds kind of like my ex-wife, only worse.
I finally realized that it was not my job to make my ex-wife happy. She had issues that could not be resolved no matter how understanding, loving, kind or forgiving I was.
There comes a point when you realize that a persons basic behaviour usually can not be changed. You really need to let go and move on. If you are having trouble coping, perhaps you should consider counseling.
I've since re-married, and it's amazing how much happier I am now that I have a loving and caring wife that doesn't demand that I'm the one responsible for her happiness. I was miserable in my first marriage and didn't really know it until after the fact.
Things do get better, sometimes much better than you can even imagine at this point.
