Jesus did not take the 'two witness' rule literally. He was concerned with the overall evidence.
by yadda yadda 2 inat first glance, jesus appears to strictly support the two witness rule here:.
john 8:16-18 but if i do judge, my decisions are right, because i am not alone.
i stand with the father, who sent me.

Fat Girls Guide to Life book
by love2Bworldly inanyone read the "fat girl's guide to life"?
i am reading it right now and finding it pretty interesting.
it makes me think outside the box a little bit about how much money is spent on products for people to lose weight, and how much money saturates the market and influences so much of the media.. the author's attitude is one i try to have-- exercise, be balanced in eating habits, drink water, take nutrition supplements, and don't obsess over dieting & what the scale says or about other people's judgements toward my weight.. right now, i already know why i am overweight-- i am eating to deal with my bipolar issues.

The American Constitution versus the 'Kingdom of God'.
by yadda yadda 2 ini thought this comparison between the american constitution and the 'kingdom of god' was very interesting from an article in this ex-mormon's excellent website http://packham.n4m.org/us-xian.htm.
the article notes how america's founding father's were deists, not bible-believing christians.. but our nation is also a system of government, not just a society.
the constitution is about government, not about society.

TTATT family blow out
by redvip2000 infor those of you who have a minute to read this, here is a report from my family trip.. i was in florida for the holidays visiting my older sister and family, along with my parents which were also visiting.. although i've had conversations with my mother about the organization, my sister and her family had no idea of my position in regards to the (un)truth - perhaps because we live far away from each other.
i knew the day was coming.... on my second day there, the whole family was sitting around bs-ing about different stuff, and as usual my mother starts with the "world is getting worse by the day" conversation, followed by approving nods and smart remarks from the rest of the family.
i then politely told them that this was not true, that in fact the world has never been better.
