Sox, Cubs......I Believe
by rocketman ini believe in curses.
the billygoat.
the bambino.. the sox just lost to the yankees 6-5 after leading by three in the 8th.. we all know what happened to the cubs.. and i believe in the rally monkey too, from last year's angels (though i guess he's looking for work these days, poor little fella).. this is all in kidding, but it does make me wonder.....are some teams "cursed"?

JWs The Only Ones Who Preach?
by rocketman inhttp://www.time.com/time.covers/1101030630/story.html
looks like jws aren't the only ones who preach, as this article in the latest issue of time magazine shows.. many christian missionaries are going into islamic countries to preach the gospel, in what they feel is a commision by jesus at matthew 28:19, 20.. unfortunately, many governments there have laws against preaching and conversion, plus the region is knwon for much anti-western sentiment.. listening to jws and and reading jw literature, one might think that they are the only ones who bother witnessing and preaching.
this article shows that many missionaries are making an extraordinary effort to reach others with preaching and also humanitarian aid.

one dad used a gps installed in his car to track the movements of his daughter.
another dad installed spyware in his computer and monitored the e-mails and im chats of his daughter.

Mankind's Search For God
by rocketman inmany of you no doubt remember when the society released the book mankind's search for god.
i had always figured that, since there were questions printed at the bottom of each page, the book would be studied at the congregation book study.
till this day, it has not been studied, and in fact, besides a couple of placement campaigns, not much was ever really done with that book.
