Do you "believe" differently from what you "know"?
by compound complex ingreetings, all those still searching, still wondering .
.. in one of many faith-related books i have read, i recall the author declaring that there's a difference between what we know and what we believe.
while i cannot recall the author nor his commentary, i acknowledge that, while i do know ttatt and that the bible in not without error, yet there's a part of me deep inside that holds onto the so-called spiritual.. how is it for you personally as you make the transition from the invisible to the visible?

Hello CoCo
I recently read a book called "A Manual for Creating Atheists" by Peter Boghossian.
He describes faith-based beliefs as "pretending to know things you don't know" especially when those faith-based beliefs lack evidence to support them.
If certain beliefs pass muster - if they can be empirically proven - then they are worthy of our belief. If they can't be proven, then they belong "at the kiddy table" (along with the individuals who insist on claiming such as truth when they are really pretending to know things they don't know).

Why are the letterhead and signature in Italian, while the rest of the letter is in English?
Is this information valid only to Congregations™ under the Branch Office™ in Rome?
(Or could it be a nudge-wink-know-what-I-mean reference to the Vatican...?)

Hearing that Armageddon™ Is Just Around the Corner™ for much of my youth created a strange dichotomy in decision making. People were putting off decisions that could better their lives - their futures - indefinitely, such as getting a good education and a solid career, buying a house, preparing for retirement, etc. At the same time, they were quitting school, jumping head first into marriages and having families, which created a bigger long-term financial burden, keeping them stuck in dead-end jobs with very few prospects of improving their lot in life.
No wonder they want/need to have Armageddon™ be right around the corner - it will put them out of their current misery, whether they survive it or not. They're hoping to survive so they can enjoy the Paradise™ they were promised, but there are no guarantees....

A few bad apples hey?
by sparrowdown ina witness couple just called on me.
they know i have'nt been to the hall for a few months but have no idea that i am "off reservation" in more ways than one.. they called by to tell me they that due to the "unloving spirit" in our.
congregation they will be going to another hall from now on.. the husband has been having ongoing "issues" with the cobe for some time ( iow,he hates his guts).. they feel that if they move to another cong where the people are nicer everything will be ok. (yeah, right).

I've known people who do this too.
They move from one congregation to another, hoping to find that elusive Congregation™ that will provide the ultimate experience in Christian Love™, fellowship and opportunities for spiritual growth.
They always end up disappointed, because they are looking outside themselves and counting on others to fulfill their fantasy experience. They'll only ever find the peace and contentment they're looking for by looking inward... inside themselves.

Dissed by a Sister!
by finally awake ini was running the cash till at the annual boy scout fundraiser yard sale yesterday, wearing my finest boy scout t-shirt and enjoying the blistering heat, when i saw a local family of witnesses browsing the merchandise.
they studiously avoided looking at me, but eventually a bargain nightgown proved irresistable and the wife was forced to approach the cash table and ask about pricing.
we avoid putting prices on each item because there is just too much stuff and we remind everyone that the money sends the kids to summer camp so the guilt kicks in and people pay more.

Interesting how she snubs you for volunteering at a Boy Scouts fundraiser, but she has no qualms about shopping there.
Maybe she has a special library card. LOL
You realize that this puts her in a very precarious situation, right? Her Bible Trained Conscience™ will now be nagging her to report you to the Elders™, however if she does she will implicate herself in wrongdoing at the same time. The only way she could report you without implicating herself would be to lie about how she knew you were volunteering at a Boy Scouts fundraiser.
I've got $5 that says she will be compelled to sacrifice the nightgown on the BBQ before it strangles her in her sleep. LOL
