OMG, I'm going to die :(
by lola28 inbecause it is hot as hell outside, it has to be 113 at least, when you walk outside you feel like you are on fire, someone make it stop!
i can't imagine going out in service in this heat but this morning on my way to work what do i see?
faithful jws walking the streets, should it be considered child abuse to make children go out in ervice in this heat?.

What do you miss from yesteryear?
by greendawn ini met a childhood friend recently and he told me with nostalgia that he recalled the childhood days as being very pleasant.
i told him they would be since we were living under the protection of our parents who took care of all our needs and we had no worries about anything.
it would be like paradise.

The Noah's Ark Conspiracy
by AlmostAtheist inwe all know the official story: noah was contacted by god and warned that a flood would engulf the earth, killing everything.
noah was given the command to build an ark to preserve his family and mating pairs of animals in order to repopulate the earth.
the ark was built, the flood came, the waters receded, and noah's family stepped out onto a cleansed earth.

How accurate can the Bible really be?
by Snoozy inhow accurate can the bible really be?
i am losing faith that it is accurate at all.. according to an article i read in our paper today they are now saying in translation there are no english words to match every word...so the scripture that say "peace on earth and goodwill towards all men " should really be " peace on earth to all men of goodwill ".. now if they can screw something that simple up..what else in the bible have they screwed up?.
snoozy....
