So...they really are now meeting in a basement.
They have a little literature display shop at street level. So, people can come in, get some literature, and then get an invitation to go down to the basement.
Charming.

Same sex attraction, as a behaviour can be predicted.
by fulltimestudent inbeing ever ready to note information that demonstrates christian idiocy in general and jw idiocy in particular, i was interested in news of this particular research that has been doing the rounds of science oriented news sources this week.. christianity in general and jwism in particular, have viciously persecuted same sex attracted people, thus demonstrating their peculiar hypocrisy.
most christians (the jw brand and other brands) squeal like a speared pig when they suffer any treatment that they call persecution, but are always willing to persecute same sex attracted people (and anyone else that stands outside their narrow-minded vision of the world).. most same sex attracted people will testify that their romantic attraction to the same sex was not a clear cut choice, but was something they grew up with.
(gay by nature).

Very cool. Epigenetics opens up a whole new way of understanding genetics.
Looking at identical twins with different sexual orientations is a great idea. Obviously their genes are the same! But some genes showed methylation, an epigenetic change, that happened to be very significant on 9 genes. As in nine! So, a great portion of their work was data analysis.
Math is so important! Don't forget to brush your teeth, take your vitamins and do a little math everyday. :)

I got up yesterday morning (Saturday) and enjoyed the watchtower work
by Zoos inreaching the fire watchtower on top of wayah bald overlooking the smokey mountains can be a difficult hike from nantahala lake up the bartram and appalachian trails where they straddle each other passing through this area.
the most enjoyable watchtower work i've ever participated in.. the views from the tower are spectacular.. .
looking across nantahala forest to the smoky mountains, described poetically as the most elevated peak; from whence i beheld with rapture and astonishment, a sublimely awful scene of power and magnificence, a world of mountains piled upon mountains.

My son has a youtube channel called GearedProductions that has videos of trains, mostly steamers, around the Mid-Atlantic region.
He has really improved his film-making skills through time and is doing a great job, I think, for a 14 year old kid. He has not edited and uploaded our most recent adventure to western Maryland, but please check out his Strasburg Railroad videos from their Vintage Cars Alongside Vintage Trains event. It's a cool event where antique cars race steam trains. The railroad was so impressed that they asked him for permission to use some of his footage in their promotional materials!
He'll probably edit and upload yesterday's great train race by this weekend. Check back next week if you're interested.
Did I mention I was proud of him?

by adjusted knowledge inlast year my daughter had her first birthday and all my wife's family and friends were there.
my family didn't attend.
my mother and sister still believe in the jw teachings even though they are both considered inactive.

Good lord, borgifiizes??
Maybe "borgifies" was more in line with what I really meant.
Sorry!

You don't realize it if you grow up without it, but denying birthdays is a way of denying the self. It denies the self as a legitimate, independent person. Not having birthdays borgifiizes one into the collective. -

Actually, he probably does wear leopard skin undies under his oh so conservative suits.
Yeah, I think he's the type.

So, when you say tight leopard skin pants, do you mean that in the American way, as in trousers, or in the UK sense of underpants?
Because, ewww!

Thanks, Lisa Rose. I believe it. I guess I need to review what codependency is. Is it a need to be associated with something because it provides some benefits that meet their needs even though there are negative consequences?

Most people wear a reasonable amount of scent, but some folks just keep on dousing that perfume until it's overwhelming. Even if people are not allergic, you are still offensive.
A little goes a long way.
