I have a serious and I need your help.....
by Faithful-n-Discreet Wife inthis time last year i met the man of my dreams...he was incredibly smart and charming...he was in tune with me...he made me feel like i was the best thing that ever happened to him.
at first he was a little shy...he didn't think anyone of my caliber would even give him a chance...conveniantly though i had my run of bad guys...and wanted someone different.
he was a devout christian...and i had been yearning for years for some direction.

The psychology of eschatology
by onacruse inso here's a question: why do some people (and i include myself as a former member of the group) seem so preoccupied with "end-times" issues?.
as a starter, i submit that it's because we are inclined to fight against the inevitability of our own demonstrably limited human existence...and therefore we develop around ourselves "escape mechanisms" to alleviate the pain of termination.. we use numerical calculations, religious speculations, mysterious cosmic forces, evolutionary patterns, etc.
etc.. your thoughts?.

The Salt Threat
by maowr in.. you may be aware of recent media coverage on 'the salt threat'* where the fda is trying to regulate the food packaging industries use of salt in the products.. if they go forward with it what would stop them from trying to regulate the salt content in usda meat since it's common knowledge that blood contains salt and if the production line is slowed down allowing for a better quality of bleed in the carcass reducing the amount salt or blood in the meat.. * http://abcnews.go.com/gma/oncall/story?id=3929972&page=1 .

"The Savages" New Movie about caring for your OLD, FORGETFUL parents
by Magick inmany of us are at the age where we have or are currently caring for our aged parents.
some of us have to deal with them not even remembering who we are....that we are their children.... because of some old person's disease.. if you've read my recent posts, you'll know that i recently have had some strong emotions come up because of this.
i received some good advice and a lot of love & compassion from people who have been where i'm at or at least could certainly empathize.. we as former jehovah's witnesses & jehovah's witnesses have even more tension added to the aging situation.

If you are a Jehovah's Witness,
by rmcgill_leader inif you are a jehovah's witness please understand that i am not against you as an individual.
i am not an apostate from the watchtower organization and, of course, i was never baptized as a jehovah's witness.
however, when i was 17, i studied with the jehovah's witnesses for a couple of months, but quit.

Do I suck?
by wanderlustguy ini mean, how would you really know if you do, in fact, suck as a poster?
would it be because when you post all the sudden there can be no more submissions?
can you kill the thread killer thread?.
