Scariest Movie you have ever seen?
by Layla33 ini know as exjws, probably for the most, there was a secret freedom in watching horror films without thinking you would have a demon as a bed buddy.. i am not very fond of every horror movie, but i will watch those that have an intelligent side to it and is not gore for the sake of gore.
like "the ring" got me going when i first watched it, just like "the blair witch project" did, which is more about suspense.
anyway, i never saw any of the saw movies, so i am going to try to watch saw iii tonight, since it is on showtime.

No sacred trees in Eden - what would have happened?
by Awakened07 in-this is a hypothetical "for the sake of argument"-topic, where we take for granted that the biblical story of adam and eve (as it is presented in the bible we have available today) is literally true.
i think it can be an interesting exercise.. now - let's for this discussion say god did not plant any 'special' tree in the garden of eden.
no tree of knowledge, and no tree of life.

The United Nations, the Scarlet Colored Beast and the Watchtower
by jgnat inthis week, the watchtower society set about vilifying the united nations as the scarlet colored beast.
i learned from the revelation book, chapter 34, that it was knorr who started the trend with his public talk in 1942. the revelation book suggests that the league of nations and then the united nations that followed, are direct fulfillments of the prophecy in revelation 17:8. here's an excerpt from the book:.
"the un is actually a blasphemous counterfeit of god's messianic kingdom by his prince of peace, jeus christ - to whose princely rule there will be no end.

Christianity in a nutshell?
by gaiagirl in"the belief that a jewish zombie who can make you live forever in paradise if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree".. .
pretty much sums it up, doesn't it?

Did Prayer work for you, or not?
by gaiagirl injws, and christians in genreral, are taught that god answers prayers of sincere believers.
on the other hand, there is a popular bumpersticker which reads "nothing fails like prayer".. what has been your experience in this regard?
did god answer your most heartfelt prayers, or were they ignored?.

Has my mom given up?
by Princess Daisy Boo inso with the memorial a mere 3 days away i was not heard a word from her about it?
each year i am told at what time it will be at the local congregation and some years she has even got one of the local witnesses to contact me to invite me (they even offered to fetch me once!)..
i am assuming that she has decided not to bring up the subject after the talk we had a few weeks ago, but this must be eating away at her big time!.
