Ooh two for the price of one! This is the Borage I grew from seed. They are just starting to flower. I love those blue star flowers and so will the butterflies and bees. You see I did listen to you Bonsai. I've also just planted out the Bee Balm, Monarda so they will love that too.

Start A Butterfly Garden!
by Bonsai intime to take a break from debating religion.
take in a breath of fresh air and be healed by the wonders of nature around you.. how many of you have a garden?
how many have a nice flower patch to go with your vegetable garden?

LisaRose sorry you lost some plants, I know how upsetting that can be. Also I can relate to losing the Pine tree. I had an Ash tree pollarded in February because it was bigger than the house and they grow really fast. For months it looked awful, they didn't even leave twigs on it just three branches. I was so upset, I was sure they'd killed it but at the end of May it finally started to sprout. I really got down about that tree I thought I'd lost it but it's going to survive.
GreatTeacher my hydrangeas are nowhere near flowering. We've had a cold, very wet June. It's funny we're desperate for sun and you're dreading it getting too hot. Funny old planet!

Does anyone know a real dick way to dismiss an ex-scientologist if we don't agree with them?
Talking to you is like Mission Impossible
Nah he'll never leave.

My son is not sure about what he has been taught about the common ancestor
by KateWild inthis week my son expressed he is agnostic as he is not sure what to believe about evolution and the common ancestor.. i thought any jw hang ups were gone.
i told him that what they teach in school is trustworthy and he can be rest assured that there is evidence to support that the common ancestor was the real link to the evolution of humans.. he has got critical thinking skills.
and responded with "for hundreds of years schools have been teaching things and have changed their thoughts".

Um at the risk of sounding picky, and I wasn't going to say anything but you've repeated it Vidiot.... penguins are in the Antarctic not the Arctic.

I love oriental poppies. I always think they look like they've got a big hairy spider in their centre. Mine are battling against the rain but the sun is struggling through today.

An Amoeba is a single celled organism. I learned that in school.
Kate why don't you have the desire to check definitions? I rarely get through a day without checking definitions.

I thought God decided who got resurrected? So they think we're all lost forever in their God's eyes. So much love in that religion!

I can't believe you can't understand the biology in Cofty's evolution threads Kate. He explains them very well. You understand chemistry, you're an intelligent woman, don't sell yourself short. I can understand them and I don't have a science background. By the way you have a very bright son, he must have got that from somewhere.

Introduction - Any Believers?
by Believer ini’ve been reading it for a few of years off and on, but have been a little too ... maybe ... timid to join.
i left the watchtower organization almost 20 years ago but never abandoned my faith and belief in god.
i knew the gb/organization didn’t represent god, so when i lost my faith in them, i managed to keep my faith in an all wise benevolent creator.

Hi and welcome Believer. I don't believe in the God of the monotheistic religions. To me the world and our solar system screams there's no one in charge looking after us. I just know the universe is huge and I don't know what the hell is going on out there so I keep an open mind.
