Sizemik, your manliness is apparent and your sons are blessed to have you as a dad.
Farkel, I wish the world had more men of your caliber. In case you missed my message on Shelby's thread, you have a pm.

66Men are Adorable!
by Robdar inthis afternoon i had the pleasure of listening to my dad, husband and son discuss timing belts, the teeth they rest on, camshafts, and other car parts that i cant recall at such a late hour.
they were totally engrossed in the conversation and it was fun listening to them talk.
the air was thick with testosterone and they were so manly that i just had to smile about it.

I'm the idiot. You just bought cheap beer. I forgot to purchase the XTC and arrange the end of the world orgy.
~Sigh~ I fear I've ruined my reputation as an excellent hostess of many fine parties.

Exactly how many different views of Jesus are there on the Board and doesn't that kind of tell Believers the obvious problem...

I'm Jewish.
I like Jesus; however, I do not believe in original sin and therefore do not believe he is the messiah who died to even God's score card.

Just wondering ....
by talesin inthere are many new posters here, and i'm very interested to learn why you chose your screen names.. .
one book i read, the mists of avalon, was very important to me.

Talesin, I LOVED Mists of Avalon!
I know I am not a new poster but I got my screen name by combining the first three letters of my stage name with the first three letters of the name my mother gave me.

Thanks, Sam. Sometimes I think men are blamed for everything wrong in the world. I think it's time we let them know how valuable they are.

I have been blessed by the wonderful men in my life and that includes the ones on this discussion forum. On behalf of myself and other women, thank you. Thank you for your protection, your love, your chivalry, your passion, for making us laugh, and for your knowledge of automobiles. Our lives are sweeter because of you.

Anyone understand the Federal Reserve System?
by AK - Jeff inbut i want to educate myself.
like all jw's, i didn't give a shit about those sorts of things, unless there was an article in the magazine we were placing that month.
and even then, a very shallow understanding is all that i wanted or needed to 'place' the magazine.

My husband is an economics professor. I was turned on to the following movie and he watched it with me. Although he didn't agree with the entire documentary, he thinks it's pretty spot on. If you have 3.5 hours to spend, watch the movie and you will have a much better understanding of the federal reserve and fractional reserve banking practices which, by the way, began with the Bank of England in the 17th century. Here's the link:

Compare and contrast JW "forgiveness" with Judaism and Christianity
by Terry inundeserved kindness: (a rich word-choice from the beloved green nwt bible.).
ask yourself why you don't deserve kindness.
if god says you don't deserve something and he gives it to you anyway...who is conflicted here??

In Judaism, forgiveness from God is also sought. Jews celebrate Yom Kippur, which is the day of atonement
Botch this is partially true. Rosh Hashanah is the Jewish New Year which begins the 10 Days of Awe in which we ask forgiveness and seek reconciliation with the people we have sinned against.
The 10 Days of Awe culminates in Yom Kippur, the day we ask God for forgiveness for the sins we have committed against him. We also ask for his release from any vows we made to him the previous year and did not keep.
However, and this is the point that Terry is making, we are not forgiven by God for the sins we have committed against each other. Only the person we have sinned against can grant forgiveness, God isn't going to do it for us. It takes a lot of intestinal fortitude to go to the person you have wronged, admit your sin and ask for forgiveness. BTW, if the person you ask forgiveness from doesn't feel you are sincere, he doesn't have to grant the forgiveness you seek.
