anyone watch it?
here is the full program on it.... i missed it but will watch it now.
are these people nuts or is there really such a thing as demons?.
Really makes you wonder..lot of nuts running around..
I remember going as a child with a friend to a Pentecostal church one time and it scared the jesus out of me!
If it is supposed to be inspired by God why would it scare you? Wouldn't /shouldn't it make you feel warm and fuzzy inside? That's my kind of church!!!
Snoozy who automatically runs when someone says they "speak in tongues" or sees Demons..yep!
I fugure they are a nut job..

found this article on a "gay like" man that was refused and it got me to wondering..i really didn't know the rules!.

an indiana man says a blood donation center rejected him as a donor because he appears to be gay--even though he isn't.. .
You're welcome Scully..
Another point that someone made was screening isn't 100 % sure. Thank you for that info.
Also in the article it pointed out about homeless people being able to donate..how can they tell if someone is truthful about their background?
I have never donated so am not up on the process of donating. Do they ask questions? Take a physical of the one donating? Test the blood before they take the donation?
And still wondering about the gay screening process, do they just rely on the persons statements as to if they are gay or not before letting them donate?

He says:
An Indiana man says a blood donation center rejected him as a donor because he appears to be gay--even though he isn't.
Aaron Pace, 22, recently visited Bio-Blood Components Inc., in Gary, which pays up to $40 for blood and plasma donations. But during the interview process, he said, he was told he couldn't give blood because he seems gay.
Though Pace is "admittedly and noticeably effeminate," according to the Chicago Sun-Times, he says he's straight.
"It's not right that homeless people can give blood but homosexuals can't," Pace told the paper. "And I'm not even a homosexual."

i'm sort of angry right now.. no, not angry..... i'm shaky.
at least, when i lift my cup of coffee to my lips, sitting here at starbucks, my hand is trembly.. i hate that!.
the power they have to still reach me on some hidden point that hides in the corners of my very being.... .
Terry, I'm sorry they still seem to have a hold on your emotions..
I also have encountered their response that "They (The Elders etc) are only men and god will judge their hearts"..speech when faced with comments about their behavior!
It does sound like you answered from your heart tho..hopefully that made an impression on their hearts and will get them thinking ..
Sorry they shook you up so to speak..hopefully the day will come when you realize they are just people and not to be feared..

of the some 70,000 disfellowshippings each year (some 1% of the membership) most were for sexual misconduct.
of these, i think i'm safe to say that very few were witnessed by a third party.
that means that both participants had to voluntarily confess in order to satisfy their 2-witness rule.. know of any that didn't meet this rule?.
I disassociated myself. In the letter I told them what THEY were doing wrong..
I never was disfellowshipped (My JW MIL inquired years later ) even tho I told them I no longer would consider myself to be "One of them"..
I left back in the 70's.

sunday herald sun, melbourne.
jehovah's witness children will continue to doorknock neighbourhoods with adults who have failed to gain police background checks after a bid to stop the practice failed this week.. gippsland carpenter steven unthank, a former member of the religion who says he was abused as a teen by a church elder, was given approval by victoria's chief magistrate to take the unusual step of launching a private prosecution of the religion over its refusal to require ministers to gain police checks, but says he cannot afford the $350 fee for filing the charges.. mr unthank yesterday said he could not pursue the religion on his own.. he said it was a disgrace that neither victoria police nor the justice department would enforce the working with children act, which requires ministers of religion to gain police checks before working unsupervised with minors.. the religion's corporate arm in australia, the watch tower society, says it does not believe its ministers need to obtain background checks to work with children because they do not typically work unsupervised with children.. ``it's an absolute beatup,'' a spokesman said.
No matter, the Watchtower society has more money and more lawyers to fight with overall..apparently money talks in their government. The one with the most rules...
But at least it was brought to a lot of people's attention. And when and if abuse ever shows up there by the witnesses the Government can be told they were warned.
Hopefully that will never happen!

i was officially diagnosed today.
started out a little over a week ago with pain in my back, and a week ago the rash appeared.
according to the dr, it seems i have been through the worst, and should clear in a week or so.
So glad it didn't get any worse..My MIl had it really bad for a year..at least.
So you can't relax?... It's a wonder you haven't had a case of shingles every year with all you have been through lady..
Big Hug..

at genesis 3:16 jehovah told the woman that he would increase or multiply her pain in childbirth.
does this not indicate that there would have been some pain at childbirth even if the woman had not sinned?-g. v., belgium.. .
genesis 3:16 (nw) reads: "to the woman he said: i shall greatly increase the pain of your pregnancy; in birth pangs you will bring forth children, and your longing will be for your husband, and he will dominate you.
Back in the 50's I can say there were no "Pleasure " pains associated with my childbirth of 3 children!
You were lucky if you got the wiff of gas before the head came out and ripped you to shreds..then there was the fun of waking up 2 minutes later to being sewed up without any painkiller..made you suck your breath in..Like "OUCH"!!! (Being nice here)
Then if you nursed you had the fun of those contractions all over again..OUCH!!!
Then for the next year you were lucky if you got 6 straight hours of sleep a night..
When I had the 2nd child I begged hubby to keep circleing the hospital cause I knew what I was in for..
Childbirth, ahhhh you gotta love it..I would trade it for adoption anyday!
I do have to say it was easier the next times..not harder.

i discovered the website for these when googling online contacts.. they are made by the inventor of disposable dailies.
he is on a mission to make them available at a realistic price that reflects the cheapness of making them.
this saving has not been passed on to the customer by the likes of johnson and johnson, allergan, bausch and lomb.. i was paying three times the price for true eye and acu vue.
I wonder if that is the ones being advertised on TV? They said you can leave them in up to a month? I thought it weird since their name had "Daily" in it...
Snoozy..who just has those reading thingies..
