neil armstrong say those famous words...this is one small step for a man........... muhammad ali win and loose the world title 3 times.. the 1st women prime minster of the uk..
My husband walked in President Obama's inauguration parade.
I lived through hurricane Sandy dropping a tree on our roof.
I watched the towers fall on 911 and the Pentagon hit on tv. I remember a lot of fear because I had a 5 month old baby in my arms and we are so close to DC.
My cousin was struck by lightening...
some fascinating results in the latest pew research.
(how did i miss this before?
) including that jws rely on their religion the most of any group to tell right from wrong and rely on common sense the least.
i am inclined to start this thread in response to some comments made in other threads.
i have been coming around these forum for quite some time now so whatever you find in here is not just related to something someone may have said this week.
it can go months back as well.. i have seen many who claim to respect the belief of others but when it comes down to applying it into practice, things take a whole different tune.
Thanks, truthseeker. BTW, I like your floating wire bird's nest avatar.
Just trying to imagine the bird that would sit on it...

Most interesting to me are the results for belief in heaven and hell.
89% do NOT believe in hell. OK.
However, belief in heaven is split. 50% do believe in heaven while 39% do NOT believe in heaven.
What? Maybe they didn't understand the question? Or were they trying to witness to the interviewer about the heavenly vs. earthly hope?
well tomorrow is a big day for me.
i'm finally going to be interviewed by the police about what happened to me as a kid.. im running the whole gamut of emotions at the moment.
sad, anxious, angry, guilt, fear and many more that cannot be quantified.. i feel physically sick, cannot sleep, have lost my appetite and i am desperately trying not to self harm.. i've got my sister to thank for getting this far.
So brave! Many can't or won't do what you are doing.
I hope you feel a tremendous amount of relief once you're finally able to give a voice to what has been hushed up for so long.
And, I bet that will create positive ripples in the rest of your life as well.

Maybe chill with the "Google it." directives?
I'd never heard of 'home truths' either, and each word is simple enough that it could have been made up by the author with unclear intent.
It doesn't hurt to ask.

Actually, Eden, upon reflection, you might actually be describing respect for someone's feelings in your scenario.
Regardless of beliefs, a person might have feelings that it's very important to help others. They might feel others' distress strongly.
That I could respect and in that case, I could agree with you.

In your scenario, it wasn't the belief that served the greater good of society. It was their choice of actions.
Two different things. They may seem to be correlated, but one does not necessarily follow the other.
