kate and i just had one of our frequent "patio" discussions...my, how she sparks my mind!
we've been watching some tapes that a friend gave us, about the origin of the bible and the similarities to (read "borrowed from") other ancient mythologies.
very interesting anthropological and sociological information, even showing the biblical connection to astrology (e.g.
It could be that both accounts come from a common true source and that Genesis preserves by divine guidance the actual account whereas the "pagan" accounts are corrupted by time.

well, we had a grand old time yesterday dakota red kindly offered his home for our mini-fest, and what started off as a little party for searcher (our uk guest of honor) became somewhat more than that .
in alphabetical order, our group included: bikerchic, blueyes, bruce and dorian baker, buster and wifey, carmel, dakota red, goshawk, lost diamond, onacruse, princess and steve (and steve's mom and a family friend), searcher, seven006, songmistress, and veniceit.. carmel brought some delicious salmon for the barbie, and we even got searcher to have a taste.
we overlooked the fact that brits prefer to eat fish in the form of fish and chips searcher and songmistress--when we brought out the cake, everything was fine until somebody started to sing happy birthday...the words just sorta stuck in our throats, and we looked around at each other like a bunch of dubbies lolololol.
Hm,
So no wedding here when I leave then !!

sorry if this has been brought up before (and i'm sure it has) but what are your nicknames?
what people nickname you can be very telling about your personality and it's funny that they sometimes become more a part of you than your given name.. i have a long list of them..lol!.
when i was a kid: carrie canary (cause i walked around singing all the time).
Most of my friends call me ‘ The Bishop ‘ normally shortened to ‘ Bish’
Apparently I have an irreverent sense of humour.
when you encounter a jw who doesnt know you, do you tell them you are an ex?
or pretend otherwise?.
last night we were understaffed at work so had to call in an agency worker, i had to leave her in charge of 4 adults with autism while i did the rounds on call, every so often i called back to make sure she was coping ok. we got on well, chatted away and then at about 5am she starts witnessing to me...i end up coming home with 5 magazines..lol, she "placed" them with me.. i didnt want to tell her i was an exjw as it would have ruined the working relationship and made her feel uncomfortable.
Is this another witness ' post and run ' ?
surprising how the theology doesnt stand up to discussion.
