JEHOVAH is a BRAND name Jesus has been fired!
by Terry ina genus-differentia definition is one in which a word or concept that indicates a species -- a specific type of item, not necessarily a biological category -- is described first by a broader category, the genus, then distinguished from other items in that category by differentia.
the differentiae of a species are the species' properties that other members of the genus do not have.
in short, the genus is the broad category, the species is a type within that category, and the differentiae are the distinguishing characteristics of the species.

There's no turning back now...
by undercover inanalogy #1:.
the shots at fort sumter have been fired...the confederates have declared war.. but before the shot was fired, the rebels were whipped into a frenzy ready to go to battle as soon as the word was given.. hopes of victory were pinned on this unnamed weapon which would fire the shot.. now that the weapon has been unveiled and the first shot fired, what will the established union do?
they have more resources, more money, more soldiers, more lawyers.. now that the war has started, how will the confederates carry out their battle plan?

David and Bathsheba
by peggy ini have always been told this was a story of adultery.
after my experience of exploitation in therapy, i began to look at it in another way.
non-the less, it was exploitation and not adultery.

Jehovah's protection during natural disasters - Need article
by Bonnie_Clyde inwhen i saw the e-mail about the brothers in sri lanka who were safe at the kingdom hall because they were on the east side of the island, and the two brothers who were out in service and jehovah protected them because they weren't at the beach, i couldn't help thinking about some articles i read several years ago.. one was about a severe tornado in elkhart, indiana, and the watchtower stated that the brothers who attended the meeting that day were spared.
however, some who stayed home were killed by the tornado.
i'm inclined to think that it was the "palm sunday" tornado that struck indiana and michigan back in april 1964. i can't find any information that goes back that far.
