The Social Structure in the Congregation
by Mary inever notice how the "happiest people on earth" are also the most class-oriented?
to say that jesus said his followers should all be on equal footing, it's incredible how much the r&f witness is not on equal footing.
the social structure in the congregation is more complex than the blueprints of a nuclear warhead, but just so that you "remember your place", see if you can find where your niche was/is:

Personal Accomplishments
by Uzzah infor years, the watchtower drilled into us that we are just specs of unimportant dust.

Evidence for evolution, Installment 1: Endogenous retroviral sequences
by seattleniceguy inbecause i need to continue doing research on this topic, and it always helps me assimilate things if i write them up or otherwise explain them to others, and because i thought others here might be interested, i've decided to start a series.
in each installment, i'll present one small piece of evidence for evolution.
hopefully, some of the more knowledgeable people here will chime in with related evidence.

the results found atlas shrugged placing second only to the bible.

t.i.j.k.m.o. explained
by tijkmo inmy favourite band for a long time now is called marillion...not big in usa...bigger in uk and bigger still in europe...i'm sure that the songwriter had been through something similar to myself as many of the songs reflect the exact same feelings and frustrations as me..and many a night i would put on a cd and cry myself to sleep....one of my all time favourite lines in a song..which i wish id written is- when you list all the qualities that you despise..and you realise..you're describing yourself.... anyway on an album called-holidays in eden-(sic)..there is a song called-100 nights- and one verse reads this way:-.
they invite me to their gatherings.
in the finer parts or town.
