  this is the third damn time i have tried to post this.

  i keep hitting the wrong button and losing it.. anyway, sometimes i hear songs on the radio that bring back some really great memories of my childhood and teenage years.

  despite being raised in the borg, i had a pretty good life.

  It is hard, cause I also love Motown, Cat Stevens, especially Aerosmith, Journey. I left out one of my all time favorite artist, James Taylor. I would go to a Kenny Loggins concert any day of the week. And I think Billy Joel is one of the most talented artists to hit the 20th century.

  We should hang out sometime.

  P.S. I don't get to listen to the radio much anymore, but in the mornings I have to wake up to Bob and Tom. They crack me up.

  This is the third damn time I have tried to post this. I keep hitting the wrong button and losing it.

  Anyway, sometimes I hear songs on the radio that bring back some really great memories of my childhood and teenage years. Despite being raised in the borg, I had a pretty good life. Mostly because I had a great father that insisted on me enjoying life and traveling as much as possible. My mother actually sent me to birthday parties as a child.

  So, I thought it would be neat to find out songs that had an impact on your lives.

  My top ten list is:
  1) Stairway to Heaven (Led Zeppelin)
  2) Dust in the Wind (Kansas)
  3) Sweet Home Alabama (Lynard Skynard)
  4) Dream Weaver (Gary Wright)
  5) Magic Man (Heart)
  6) Southern Man (Neil Young)
  7) If (Bread)
  8) Hold the Line (Toto)
  9) Now and Then (Kenny Loggins)
  10) Benny and the Jets (Elton John)

  There's a lot more, these are just some that stand out in my mind. Now you can probably guess what age range I'm in.

  We had Bethelite visitors last night

  we had a lovely meal and conversation, but then the conversation turned to rome, which is a city all of us had visited not too long ago.. we spoke about the sights as you normally do, the vatican, st peters bassilica, the sistene chapel, and so on.

  but then i mentioned the catacombs.

  i am impressed by the sheer size of the catacombs.

  Very, very interesting.

  Good points, all of them.

  Thanks for sharing.

  It's funny how when you are a mindless drone, you don't dare think about these things. Then when the blinders come off, it's like, how did I not see it?

  Everyday, I ask myself how I could have believed it all without question.

  Disfellowshipping--The Christian View

  by comment in

  excerpt from the watchtower, october 15, 2006: "disfellowshipping--the christian view".

  12. likewise in modern times, the christian congregation is compelled to disfellowship unrepentant wrongdoers.

  but what of those who sincerely regret the reproach they have brought upon jehovah's name, organization and people?

  gsark stated, "Jehovah's Witnesses are not known as champions of religious freedom anywhere. Not anymore."

  Not so my friend. I just noticed the little PR work they did on the back of the May 15, 2001 WT which is entitled...

  'Thank Jehovah's Witnesses for Religious Freedom'

  "Before you shut the door on a Jehovah's Witness," says an article in the newspaper USA Today, "pause to consider the shameful persecution they suffered not too long ago, as well as the rich contribution they have made to the First Amendment freedoms we all enjoy." Jehovah's Witnesses were persecuted in the United States thoughout the 1940's for, among other things, refusing to salute the flag. -Exodus 20:4,5

  I'll spare you guys the rest of the ad.
