  i used to love boston legal.

  now i think it's utterly ridiculous!

  too too wacky for me.. the steve wilkos show is too much of steve screaming at child molesters and wife beaters!

  i was dfed from 1998 to 2002. i was scared $hitless from the 9-11 attacks and wanted to have a better relationship with my witness daughters.

  well- my relationship with my daughters at the time improved - however i was still shunned by rank and file members inside the congregation.

  inside and outside the kingdom hall.

  i was asked by a friend to go with an older sister yesterday to the hospital to talk with her surgeon about her upcoming major surgery.

  hospital liason committee told her to watch the society's video on blood, and if she can't get her surgeon to agree on non-blood treatments, then they will help.

  it was the weirdest experience of my life.

  ** If God is love, you cannot fear him **

  2. friends

  you will find a host of books and articles that discuss the polar opposites of love and fear.

  the bible shows two opposing gods.

  personally, i believe god is love and the angry god of fear is an imposter.

  in the wbts publication "jehovah's day" on page 33 it says this: .

  over the centuries, satan has tried to prove that if humans are given an incentive to do otherwise, they will not serve jehovah.

  you know that satan has failed.

  2. bible

  didn't jesus say survivors would be "changed in the twinkling of an eye" ?.

  didn't jesus say the dead would be resurrected first, before this change occurs?.

  didn't jesus say he was going to prepare a place and we would be "taken" there to be with him?.

  Internet: Our Tower of Babel?

  by cameo-d in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  our cell towers reach higher than the trees, up into "the heavens".

  our satellites "in the heavens" bounce transmissions.. we have world wide communication in real time with the push of a button.

  have we not created another tower of babel?.

  imagine that!

  i was walking downtown in the morning when i crossed paths with one of the sisters from the hall.

  as i was walking toward the little cell phone shop she had just walked out of when she looked right at me and whirled on her heel 180 degrees and walked really fast to the bank.
