  how do you move on?

  by John Doe in

  doing well, being constructive, moving this life in the right direction.. but then,.

  a scent.. a taste.. a joke.. a vision.. a smile.. and everything comes crashing back into yesterday, looking into the past while moving into the future.

  perhaps it's a mental illness to be guarded against, alone..

  mama, what I'm talking about is not entirely about religion or leaving the jw's. In fact, it is not easily quantified nor categorized.

  this thread was inspired by the poster here with that moniker.

  that name, for the first time in my life, caused me to think deeply about the scriptural real meaning of the phrase used in isaiah, often used by biblical defenders to show it's inspiration by god.. i googled the phrase, and among other hits, found this little blogspace with comments that echoed my thought on the matter.. http://www.youngausskeptics.com/2008/12/what-you-really-think-a-sphere-is-a-circle-you-really-think-that/.

  found it interesting.. jeff.

  Hades, that would be what physicists postulate as the "sylvia dimentia" I presume?

  They also postulate the existence of an infinite number of alternate universes. I don't buy into either idea.

  John Doe, there is something fundamentally wrong with you.

  I'm not the one making the argument that they had no words for sphere.

  Ancient Hebrews had two words that comprised their entire language, ooga and booga. Meaning was encapsulated in the tone, pitch, rythmm and cadence of the words. To wit:

  "ooga BOOGA" translates as "I'm surprised!"

  "OO*GA BOO*GA" translates as "I'm horny, let's grab a martini and explore the moonlight."

  "booga ooga BOOGA?" translates as "What the hell are talking about yankee?!"

  "oogaboogaoogaboogaOOGABOOGA!!" translates as "I have need of a restroom--I'm drowning here and seeing fish swim past!"

  And then there's "oggaboogabooga," but I'm afraid common decency doesn't allow me to translate that phrase.

  What is "Present Truth?"

  thought i'd share this little bit of 'research' with you all.

  i remember sometime back when i was visiting my wife's kh, they sang a song from the song book that contained the words, present truth.

  i did a quick search on google to see what people on the internet were saying about this phrase.

  Present truth comes wrapped in shiny paper and bows and ribbons.
