i kid you not.
the latest watchtower study edition has the following question under consideration in the "questions from readers" article on page 20:.
do jesus words found at matthew 19:10-12 suggest that those who choose to remain single have received the gift of singleness in a mysterious way?.
I used to pray for a wife so I had someone to go on the field service with when I got home from work.
All being single got me was such guilt at being constantly horny that I disfellowshipped myself.
Hardly consider my lot as being a gift from God, if it was, it was too mysterious for me to comprehend.
we recently had a thread highlighting the best british bands.... http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/jw/friends/230126/1/best-british-bands.
it seems only fair to have a similar thread about american bands.. .
here's my own top ten.... 1. the eagles.
Doh, my favourite American is a Canadian!
Sorry Talesin
I wondered why nobody else had mentioned him, stiill, enough here claiming Fleetwood Mac as American.
i'm male, in my early twenties, and i don't know how to cook.
if one day i blow my cover i will have to move out and fend for myself.
my question is what frozen meals or quick fix meals do you recommend for a single guy?
I came out the Navy in 78 and since then I have lived alone so I have honed bachelor cooking down to a fine art, for instance after a hard days mechanicing, I cooked the following:-
Open packet of German Bratwurst sausages and place on grill, turn on and leave, turn over if you remember, if not dont worry as by the time you smell the burning, they would have cooked through to the otherside anyway.
Open jar of Sauerkraut and put some on the plate next to were your sausages will go, sauerkraut is made from vegatables which apparently you need, its easy to prepare, ie you dont even have to cook it, you can keep it for years, no buying fresh down the shop and finding its gone rotten before you can be bothered to do something with it.
Enjoy,
total time spent 10 minutes, 2 minutes of which envolves you actually having to do anything.
on a lighter note......what do you think?
here's my top ten.
1) beatles.
Goodness!, I forgot about SAHB, they where my Favourite band in the early 70s, the first concert I went to, I was 16, I asked for my first date, (refused so I gave up with women after that and took my mate instead), was to see the Sensational Alex Harvey band play at Hammersmith Odeon and turned out to be the concert they recorded for their Live album.
Years later, after Alex had died, went to see them in a pub across the road from where I had worked, how the mighty had fallen.

Ive never been able to post Vids here, but if you can copy and paste the above, I think you will enjoy Habibi by Boomtang
after the past few years of trying to really figure out what the bible is teaching and no influence, one of the things has been that possibly the god of the israelites may have been a son.
i want feedback on what i am about to show.
this is the tip of the iceberg, just one angle of what may be going on.
An interesting concept, next time I read through the Bible I will keep your idea in mind to see how it fits in with what Iam reading.
I have sometimes fantasised into the nature of God, such as he could be a little boy who made everything in our world so to us would appear to be, and could claim to be, the Most high, but in his own reality has to go away when his Mum calls him for dinner.

the last thread on this was like 8 yrs ago.
thought it could be updated.
cars, trucks, or motorcycles.
I still have my Triumph Stag that I even went out in the field min in, whenever anyone would accuse me of having a car that was maybe a bit too flash, I would offer to show them the logbook where the previous keeper is shown as being the London Bethel.
The most fun car I ever owned was a ratty Triumph Vitesse, (they look like the little old Triumph Herald), except somebody had put a 3.1 Litre V6 Ford Essex "X pack" engine in it with a hot cam and rather large carb.
Once I had started the car rolling, I could then hit the throttle and nothing would match its acceleration, I couldnt give it when pulling away as the diff used to explode.
It was the fact it looked like an old dads car yet would match the latest Mercedes Sports Coupes was what I most enjoyed, I followed an Audi TT100 down the A22 once, whatever he tried to do, I was still right behind him with an indicated 125mph, you can imagine what that must have looked like to the cars we passed, an Audi travelling at 115 with what looked like a Triumph Herald trying to get past!
