Which Ones Got To YOU?
by Sunspot in.
rather than hijacking lostreality's "question" topic, and frannie's post---i began to think of movies that were particularly moving to me...... there have been many throughout the years, but right off the top of my head i'd have to say "imitation of life" (lana turner), "love is a many splendored thing" (william holden), "the way we were" (barbra streisand) and "evergreen" (barbra streisand) that really made me lose it in the theater.. what movies struck *you* the hardest?.

Either that or put one of those red Star Trek security crew shirts on the dogs and horses so we know which ones are gonna get killed so we don't get too attached.
Oh, that reminds me of something...not a movie but...those National Geographic shows where the SWEET little seals get eatten or where a lion catches up to an elk or something.....I bawl harder when I see that than any movies I've ever watched.
Come to think about it I am just EXTRA sensetive when it comes to animals...last time I saw a cat with a live mouse in it's mouth, at a friend's house, I caught up to the cat and said "LET HIM GO!!" and got the little mousey out...couldn't sleep for the rest of the night because I was afraid another little mouse would get in trouble and I wouldn't be awake to save it.

"A Place For Annie." Sissy Spacek (sp?) stars with Mary Louise Parker, along with a (I think famous) older woman. Sissy is a nurse that takes care of sick babies at the hospital and decides to adopt Annie, a baby girl who's mom (Mary Louise Parker) has AIDS. The mom is kind of a druggie, and her and Sissy don't get along well at first but so that they can both be around her, Sissy asks Mary Louise Parker to move in with her and it is just soooooooooooooooooooooooo SAD. It gets me every time.
And a certain Touched By An Angel episode. I'm probably the only Touched By An Angel nut here so I won't go into detail but this episode makes me (and everyone else, even guys) cry every time.

Anybody make New Year's resolutions/have cabbage, black-eyed peas, etc?
by Frannie Banannie in.
i don't know where the tradition came from, but down here in the south, it's traditional to eat cabbage, black-eyed peas, ham....and since cornbread seems to go so well with it...heh....wonder what it means....i know the cabbage is for luck with money in the new year, but not sure about the rest.. anyone else make any new year's resolutions?.

I considered a few, but I think I would be setting myself up to fail on them
I think mine will be to read the Bible more...(not the Witnesses' version!!)

You know, when I was your age I was as naive and foolish as you. So, there is hope.
Another miracle is how before I became a Christian I would have felt the need to insult you back

AlmostAthiest,
I could give you reasons, but you already said you don't believe those ones.
Here are a few things right off the top of my head. They are not mostly the reasons that I believe in God, but they sure help (me anyway).
This may sound familiar, (The Witnesses actually told me this) and I can't remember exactly where it was in (their) Bible so I suppose I could be wrong on this, but I remember a verse where the Bible actually said the earth is round, whereas humans didn't actually discover that for a while...
My Christian Grandma watched a documentary...where Moses was supposed to have divided the sea and walked through with all the people. There is a video of cameras going under the sea and actually seeing tons and tons and tons of carriages and other things under the water there where they settled after the sea closed in on the army. (If you are interested in this at all, I will ask her what the video is called and where to find it. I would like to see it too.)
Miracles....things that COULD be explained by sceptics....it all comes down to how much you do or don't want to believe. Little things that have happened to me or my family. I was just telling a few people in the chatroom last night how my parents and I took a vacation to WI last summer. My mom and I were driving back from an Indian reservation in the middle of nowhere on the highway when all of a sudden the back hitch to our van popped open, and she pulled over to close it. Right when we were pulled off the highway, the drivers side gasget broke in half. The only thing really holding the wheel up at that point was the weight of the van resting on it. The policeman who drove us back to the cabins said that if we had been driving it wouldn't have turned out too well. It has never before or after popped open on it's own like that while we were driving. We hadn't even opened it that day at all.
How about all the prophecies?? It's amazing to me how right on they all are. I was reading the Bible the other night about end times prophecies. It mentioned that people would be perplexed by "strange tides." I think that applies very well right now.
That's just some stuff off the top of my head...

Here's the case in point suppose someone is halfway through the ol' bucket kick and they ask you to promise to raise their great-grandkids (your kids) as witlesses so they will see them in the new system...
I guess in that case you just say whatever makes the person feel better.
