P.S. I miss 'gumby' too....
than when one of my kids is sick.
my three year old is just miserable with a cold and i feel so sorry for her.
she is being so sweet and just wants to sit on my lap with her little pink cheeks.
I know what you mean. It's such a helpless feeling not being able to 'heal' them instantly.
Judy

hi, ya'll.
i left jw's voluntarlily in 1987, still believing but thinking something was wrong with me that caused jehovah to reject me in spite of my best effforts.
after that it was "let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die".
I remember you too! So good to see you here again.

wherever you stand on the god question, or, think you do, i believe god is the most influential figure in the history of human civilization.
not just any god, but the god that created adam and eve; the god of abraham, the god of the jews; the god of the christians; and the god of islam.
what sort of character does he have?
Mohammed; has had a most detrimental effect on mankind since the 730's A.D.
he's 7 weeks old, he's a chocolate lab and i named him tony.
his eye isn't messed up it just looks that way because i was trying to get his face to look forward while i pushed the button all at once.
he kept me up all night last night crying, but hopefully just like with my beagle he will outgrow that.
Tony sure is a cutie too...
I would like to invite all the Labrador Retriever fans here to visit
http://www.justlabradors.com/forum/ where I spend way too much time.

i distinctly remember this from my childhood.
i believe lots of concern and i suppose it was from the scientific community.
now it's global warming, and i'm hearing that 99.9% of the "creditable" scientists believe it.
"What happened?"
Well if the scientist did not come up with anything new all the time they would be out of a job.
For one thing there is no grant/goverment/foundation money in not "crying wolf". And then there is the popular progressive mind set that mankind and especially large corporations that market (for EVIL profits) what mankind wants to buy are the scourge of this planet, and must be punished economically for being this scourge: for venturing out of caves and wanting to be well fed, warm in the cold, cool in the heat, well housed, well clothed and wanting to be modernly mobile by wheel and air. How Dare We.
Yes, I am old enough to remember the "coming, eminent ice age", and the "Population Bomb" (which is now several years past due by the way).
Reminds me of "straining out the knat and swallowing the camel".
Our sun is ageing and will get hotter and hotter, eventually turning the earth into a crispy critter.
Our earth is ageing too, getting warmer at the molten core: volcanoes, earthquakes (plate tectonics), and by some strange mechanism producing PETROLIUM that is known to be seeping through vents in the ocean's floor. But it's BAAADD to use that petrolium because it produces, OMG!, greenhouse gasses; one of which (green house gasses) is water vapor(evaporation cycyle) that the earth itself produces - how you 'goona stop that one? Speaking of the dreaded CO2, remember when "they" insisted on catylytic converters on autos to lower the carbon monoxide and sulfer emissions? Those 'converters' actually converted the engine emmissions to predominatly CO2 (so I have been told).
Scientists tell us about all the cycles the earth has gone through in the past during it's billions of years of exhistence and yet completly ignore the fact of those cycles in the context of the present minute (teeny tiny) time frame.
We have deified science and made it a very fat, well fed "sacred cow". And "science" is still working on learing about the things it can change and the things it cannot change. Sort of like the Alcoholics Prayer except science, at this point, does not have the "wisdom to tell the difference".
Want something more pressing than 'global warming' to worry about? Try googling "Yellowstone Supervolcano".....
dear friends:.
i had a personal copy of the coc book and had to destroy it (my whole family are hardcore jws).
now, i have the opportunity for a conversation with somebody and i need to tie in some information from that book.
Have you tried going to your Public Library? Many now have copies of Ray Franz's books.
i love watching shows on the history channel, discovery channel and so on.
they had this program on the other day, on the ten biggest threats to mankind and the planet earth.
surprisingly, none of the items on the list were god destroying mankind or the earth, so that must be further evidence that the witnesses were wrong, go to college now and retire.
Eruption of the Yellowstone supervolcano.
