Sound familiar?
by ThiChi in""for over three hundred years the rulers of the roman empire worshipped the god mithras.
known throughout europe and asia by the names mithra, mitra, meitros, mihr, mehr, and meher, the veneration of this god began some 4000 years ago in persia, where it was soon imbedded with babylonian doctrines.
the faith spread east through india to china, and reached west throughout the entire length of the roman frontier; from scotland to the sahara desert, and from spain to the black sea.

Governing Body Living in Isolation
by ThiChi inall the governing body topics today got me thinking about brother franz thoughts on the gb living in isolation and the effects it has had on the sheep.
as an elder, you could sure feel the pressure when the co came around........... living in isolation".
...no persons are more protected from having their claims and decisions questioned, from having to face their questioners and answer directly and with proof, no persons are more detached from the problems and pressures of being family men, than the small group of men forming the governing body of jehovahs witnesses*.. *unlike the apostle paul, none of them has done any secular work in decades, most of them in half a century.
