Rich Man and Lazarus
by Ding ini have never understood the watchtower's explanation of the rich man and lazarus story jesus told in luke 16. of course, they don't believe jesus is talking about what happens in an "afterlife" after people die.. but from the watchtower's point of view:.
1. who are the five brothers?.
2. why can't lazarus go witness to them?

A new type of shiraz
by ozziepost inwell-known amongst friends and acquaintances for my love of a shiraz, ive been given something new to try for christmas.
its a shiraz viognier, produced by the method of co-fermentation of red shiraz grapes mixed with white viognier grapes.
they are mixed before the wine is made when the addition of white grapes at this stage is thought to preserve the brightness of the red pigments during fermentation, as well as altering the development of some of the flavour compounds.. a typical shiraz viognier wine will contain between two and seven percent of the white variety.

What Happens When You Ask Too Many Questions?
by cameo-d indorothy kilgallen was a fearless journalist who broke major stories, and was the only reporter to interview lee harvey oswald's killer, jack ruby.
her biggest case yet -- investigating president john f. kennedy's assassination, and finding fault with the official story -- became the last one she ever pursued.
she died mysteriously in november 1965, after being threatened, but the cops never probed further.. .

True Religion vs. False Religion and James 1:27
by Ultimate Reality insomething that opened my eyes as i was re-examining "the truth" was the verse at james 1:27. in the new world translation the greek word in this verse, threskeia, is translated worship, which is fine except that it hides a more important meaning.
this same word can be, and most often is translated religion.. for witnesses, the matter of being the "one true religion" is all important.
pure and undefiled religion before god and the father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, to keep oneself unspotted from the world.. english revised version.
