Dont be so hard on satan
by gringojj ini think people forget that satan was a creation of god, just like all of us and everything else.
obviously god had a purpose in creating satan.
god has love for everyone and everything, including satan.

Hermit crabs and creation
by gringojj inhi guys its been a long time since i have posted.. anyway i was on vacation this past week at the beach and came across a hermit crab that had lost its shell.
i started thinking about the creation and intelligent design theory and though what a horrible design if it was created.
the hermit crab cannot survive without findind the shell of a dead snail to protect it.

Kingdom Hall Mortgages....Interesting Info
by gringojj inhey guys its been a long time since i have posted but there was something i wanted to share that i had found and get peoples opinion.. in massachusetts south worcester county you can search real estate transactions from the past 40 years on a website called www.masslandrecords.com.. i was checking the history on the property at 700 worcester st southbridge , mass in worcester county which is the location of the kingdom hall.. it looks like from the records that the hall was first mortgaged back in the 60's by the wbts and then again in the early 80's by the wbts but then in the later 80's by mechanics bank which became bank boston.
that all makes sense.. the curious part is that in the 90's it looks like they expanded the property with the owners of the property being the southbridge kingdom hall corp but the mortgage of 60,000 was held by a member of the congregation.
i did a little more digging and it looks like this wealthy congregation member actually did a few mortgages over the years for other cong members for thier own houses.. has anyone ever heard of a cong member mortgaging a kingdom hall or other members?.

my question is does anyone know how the wts hold is kept over the people in the rapidly growing areas of the world?
i would imagine the hold they have over the people there is less.

Pictures of Paradise
by gringojj inmy wife made a comment today about all the pictures of paradise and how none of them ever show the inside of a house.
they are always the same pictures of people outside playing with lions and water in the background.
someone was talking in another post about how hard it is to make the simplest items.

Worship of planes?
by gringojj in.
i remember a post a while back that talked about some people on an island or something that worshipped planes or something because they used to drop off packages with parachutes during a war or something.
