Preparing for Armageddon
by Wordly Andre inwhen i was a kid i can remember really being scared that armageddon was coming, you know the crap about it's almost here, and i would never live to see high school and all my classmates would be killed by jemima, i used to have nightmares when i was a kid over this.
i know of some family and friends who have since left the org, some have told me stories of how their family would prepare for armageddon, like keeping food and extra copies of watchterror and awacks, and have some kind of rehearsal for the end, some sounds like those old 1950's movietone shorts about preparing for the a bomb, did you or your family do anything weird to prepare for armageddon?

The Wrath of the Almighty
by HB ina very bad "groan" joke....... there was a painter named wayne who was very interested in making a penny where he could, so he often thinned down his paint to make it go a wee bit further.. .
as it happened, he got away with this for some time, but eventually the local baptists decided to do a big restoration job on the outside of their large church building.. .
wayne put in a bid, and, because his price was reasonable, he got the job.

** Church of England Buildings' Significant History **
by FlyingHighNow ini was raised episcopalian.
thus i am quite fascinated with my roots in the church of england, who in turn has its roots in the roman catholic church.
many of the church buildings and cathedrals that exist in england today date back to the first millenium after christ and thus were roman catholic at the time they were built.

Are Believers Truly Humble?
by serotonin_wraith inif you are non religious, do you still feel those with religion show a higher level of humility than others in society?.
on the face of it, i feel most would answer in the affirmative.. but breaking it down, i find it harder and harder to accept.
in fact, i'd call it the opposite of humility.

The Butchering of the English Language.
by Low-Key Lysmith ini am disturbed by the recent trend in the media in america that encourages the butchering of our english language.. i'm talking about examples of film titles like "she hate me", "how she move", & "baby mama".
does it really take that much effort to add an "s" to the end of a word?
now, before i am decried as a racist, please note that nowhere in any of my statements have i isolated any particular race.
