you may be able to see far distance but have trouble seeing things up close.

OK here is where my mind take off. Did they have spectacles in Noah day?Did

Methuselah after living 400 years have 20-20 vision or was he blind as a bat.

No way was Enoch able to read anything after 300 years.. I know what some are thinking, they

had perfect eye sight. So God created cataract...

OK, my daughter-in law is a Mormon. It was a recital for her music students, ages

3-15. I was sitting there thinking this is odd, most of her students are not Mormons and

the church gave her the ok to use the Church. It was performed in the chapel.

There was refreshment set up as you enter the chapel and folks fixed their plates and set in

the chapel and ate while the kids performed.

Holy sh--t, try that in the KH. Kids performing worldly songs, and my daughter-law addressing

the audience from the platform.

Anyway she did a great job with her students.

I believe they finally put my name on the do not call list,

the evil Apostate list. I see them knocking on all my neighbors

doors but walk right past our home, hell I'm a little jealous.

It made my day when they use to come by. LOL

If they ever come again to my door I will ask them how

many ex-JW's have you mat at the doors, and why are so many

of your young folks leaving the truth.

How old were you? What was the happiest year of your life?

by Esse quam videri in

what year comes to your mind as the happiest?

maybe some special place you lived, being with special people, an unforgettable period that made it your happiest.

Senior and junior year in high school. Prior to those years I wasn't popular

with the ladies, LOL. I stood all of 5'4 and 135 lb. My junior year I was a starter

on the basketball team for the school and I grew to 6 feet. The calls and smiles

from the ladies began, my senior year Oh Boy. Dating the junior class queen, invited

to all the parties, winning the big game with time running out and the crowd lifting

me up and carrying me on their shoulders. Next day news paper james win game

against cross town rival. Voted most likely to play professional basketball. That

all ended, I was drafted by Uncle Sam. But those were good years, (HS 1964-65).

Creationist Discovers 60 million Year Old Fish Fossils - Insists that they date to Noah's Flood 4500 years ago

by OrphanCrow in

it is astounding that someone like this creationist can have no appreciation for the scientific significance of his discovery.

even in the face of evidence to the contrary, those who chose to believe rather than know will never forsake their ignorance.. alberta creationist discovers rare fish fossils in basement dig (full article and video).

"an alberta man who discovered a school of rare fossilized fish while digging up a calgary basement believes the world was created by god a few thousand years ago.. it's for that reason edgar nernberg doesn't think the fossils could possibly be as old as paleontologists are estimating.. "i subscribe to the creationist position, and i believe they were laid down in noah's flood, about 4,500 years ago.

Prehistoric skull with puncture wound could be world's first murder

mystery and it wasn't the murder of Abel by Cain, they figure it to

be around 430000 years ago. News this morning on the news.

Street Witnessing - did you ever do it?

by Muddy Waters in

i remember in our congregation, there were a few older pioneer sisters who would start counting their time early - even before the service arrangement - by standing at a street corner and holding the magazines up in front of them and hoping that any passersby might stop to take one on their way to work or whatever.

as a fresh, new dub, i had heard about this "street-witnessing" work, but there was only one time i ever actually saw one of these older sisters doing this.

and even then i was shocked and embarrassed for her.... because this poor old sister was standing there, all by herself, holding up the watchtower & awake magazines, yet looking as sad and depressed as she could possibly ever look, her whole mouth was turned down just totally sad as she stood there, observing all the "dead" people walking around, hurrying to catch buses, get kids to school, get to work, etc.

Yes, the most popular and busiest location in my community.

Not a born in (JW) so my class mates that saw me standing in

front of the market thought I had lost my friggen mind.

Yes boldly preaching God's word. It makes me want to throw up

just thinking about it.
