so lets say the "end " has come and gone .
cut to the "new system" what will we have to read?
what use is the bible anymore?
If all life came from Adam and Eve, how come we are speaking hundreds of languages? Why would we not all speak the original language those 2 spoke? Makes more sense to speak one language around the world? Why did that not happen?
If all life came from evolution, why do we speak different languages?
It's the tower of Babel silly !!!
at our hall, so many entire families were jw's.
an elder told me that all the other members of his family were of another religion.. this made me wonder if some families could be genetically prone to be religious?.
Some are predestined.Like Jesus

i have spent most of my life in colorado.
love it, alwalys have.
i have lived in singapore, arizona, new mexico.
I worked in a small town once that was very charming -- Ellisville, Mississippi. The houses there are like 120k for a 2000 sq foot 3 br 2 ba. You just can't beat that. The commuinty is close and amazing how everyone knows your name.
If I had to move anywhere in the states, I would go somewhere in Virginia. It is just so beautiful and charming.

I got ambushed by the elders at my last meeting. It was 2 years ago January. They had been digging and found someone to accuse me of knowing about something I did 7 years before and they wanted a JC meeting over it. Then the JC meeting was the last time I stepped in the KH. I told them I wasn't going to discuss the issue and they made me write down that I didn't want to be a JW anymore.
just heard on cnn .... he will be gving a speach to a conservative group at 12:30pm est and announce he is quitting.. rub a dub.
I think what happened is that the socially conservative got their vote split between Romney and Huck -- One of them needed to quit in order to have a fair race against the socially liberal republican.
I heard on Christian Radio this morning that voting for Hillary was better than McCain because of his voting record on social issues.
special pioneer $600.00 per 130 hours per month.

why didnt the spend more time there... lot's of delegates there and a fair amount of popular vote in the november election.. south carolina... who did what?
did any one impress you or sway your opinion?.
Voting for John McCain is like putting Ray Franz back in the Governing Body of JW's.
I'm sure McCain is a great guy -- It's just that a lot of us don't agree with him on what this country needs. It's about the issues and not just about the kind of person you are voting for.
i took a ruby red grapefruit just now and cut it in half and then fourthed the half.
this started me thinking.
i bet all of you have healthy snack ideas and recipes you could share with all of us.
Here's a snack idea that leads up to dinner later:
Cook: 1pound fresh cranberries, 1cup sugar, 1cup orange juice, 1jar (10 ounces) red currant jelly, 1/2cup chopped pistachio nuts together for 20 mintues. (I know there's sugar but you're not going to use a ton of this per serving)
Use this sauce for both snack and dinner (the sauce will save for a very long time and makes a good bit)
Snack: Top a cracker (wheat thin or trisket) with low fat cream cheese and a dab of cranberry sauce.
For dinner: Cook salmon with ground red pepper and lime or lemon juice on top under the broiler until done and top with the cranberry sauce.
Cut up fresh asparagus, waterchestnuts and mushrooms -- cook until they are more tender but still a little crisp (like stir-fry) .. then add cooked rice and season with soy sauce and ginger... mm
I believe this adds up to about 500-600 calories for dinner. (depending on how much you eat of course but this is for what I would eat) If you take away the cranberry sauce, it makes better diet food -- 400 calories for dinner.
My favorite Snacks:
string cheese, yogurt
hearing all kinds of 'horror stories', i'm wondering if anyone here has ever had a computor virus actually totally ruin their computor, so that you had to buy a new one?
or is this an unfounded rare thing?.

I got one once and it shut down my computer. I would have sworn it was dead for good (blue screen). I called a computer guy and he came and fixed it.
