Convention
by Gorbatchov ingorby is as you know a long time fader.. visited the convention this weekend.. and concluded that samuel herds talk about hope was not so bad at all, it was well balanced.
made some good points.. knowing both sides of the medallion, have to admit he was humble with a focus on hope.. the saturday drama impressed me.
of course, there is a lot to say about the organization, this professional produced movie in a "true story" scenario, gave me the insight that hope is important for suffering people.

You had me at "bonsai" Vidqun! :)
There are natural bonsai plants in nature such as on mountain cliffs or valleys with little rainfall. The harsh elements of rain, ice, snow and wind shape them and prevent them from reaching mature size. The majority of these trees die off long before reaching bonsai-like shapes. Bonsai enthusiasts merely try to mimic the harshness of nature when shaping and pruning their plants. Anything that you see in the natural world which is beautiful exists mainly because of luck and a good survival instinct. Their fate is not decided by some celestial being, but by pure circumstance, adaptation and luck. I don't see a loving creator in any of it.

And yet we have these marauder ants that exist for the sole purpose of invading other colonies and other species of weaker ants. I wonder who created them to be like that? The universe rejects your ant farm analogy and flushes it down the toilet.

Hope without works is dead. Going out and actually helping people and doing constructive things as opposed to sitting in a convention center or peddling literature will fill you with meaning and good feelings. There is more to life than what Samuel can offer, which is serve us, help us expand our religious empire and maybe god will reward you for it. Life is short. How much time will you spend sitting in the horse cart looking at that carrot being dangled ever tantalizingly close to you? -

Start A Butterfly Garden!
by Bonsai intime to take a break from debating religion.
take in a breath of fresh air and be healed by the wonders of nature around you.. how many of you have a garden?
how many have a nice flower patch to go with your vegetable garden?

Half Banana, I live in Japan. We have ten varieties of swallowtail butterflies that range in or around my area. I plant flowers and plants that attract butterflies to come and get nectar in my garden and also to lay their eggs on the host plants that their caterpillars rely on. As a Japanese garden enthusiast and amateur designer myself, I can tell you, a landscape designer, would love Japan and all the complex yet simple garden styles they have to offer. Come visit and you will be inspired! You'll see landscape designing and maximizing each small space in ways you've never imagined.
TWOY, 4,000 species? That's incredible! I need to visit Austria some day. All those mountain/ski resorts are devastating our alpine/sub-alpine species.

And this is the religion where you can find the one true love that Jesus spoke of? I think not. It's a petty religion for petty people who like to do petty things to each other.

They will be deified and given Sainthood and shooed off to cushy private sector deep in the bowels of the new Warwick compound (I just love that word "compound". It is so appropriate for the head quarters of a cult). They will become inaccessible to anyone and will be treated as new oracles.

The Shunning truth is now out...
by babygirl30 ini have been df'd for 9yrs as of july 31 (yay me!).
so as i have written about previously in other posts, my whole family (parents + sister) made the choice to treat me as if i do not exist, and i have accepted it.
last summer they made a blatant show of it as our family reunion, in that they would walk right by me and not say one word...prompting our extended family to question their actions.

I love it! Awesome job to expose the wacky cult and put your immediate family on the hot seat. Make them sweat and make them squirm because at the end of the day their cultish behavior will come back to bite them in the ass.
