i just got off the phone with jim whitney and he is still in intensive care, due to be released to home by the weekend.

the poor guy did not have insurance, so he is going to be busy working on that angle as well, since he had a major heart attack, and need probably a quad bypass.

the doctor told him "this is as bad as it gets.

Ten Year Ex-JW Anniversary
by Amazing in
1. jw
2. friends
friday, may 1st, 1992, i drove my kids to the motel we stayed at for the circuit assembly in woodburn, oregon.

i told them that i was not going to attend the assembly at all.

on saturday morning, may 2nd, i dropped them off at the front of the assembly hall, making this the very first day where i ceased going to meetings.. driving away from woodburn, i headed to the beach at lincoln city, oregon where i took time to walk a long beach - alone - enjoying the wind breeze through my hair - the sand move between my toes - the sea gulls chanting and squeaking - the steady roll of the waves - the gentle roaring sound as they cascaded onto the shore and an occasional sip of scotch.. it was the first day of the rest of my life ... the beginning of having my life back ... the beginning of personal freedom of the mind and heart.. today, ten years later - i still can feel the fresh breeze and the sand ... and i have no regrets, no doubt, no fear ... i need not look back anymore.

a thread started by realist which mentioned the flood and the disappearance of the dinosaurs got me thinking.

since i do not own a bible i had to download one from the internet to check a few things out (my computer is really pissed at me now).

it's been many years since i read the bible but i needed to be accurate in my research to ask my question.

State of My Faith
by Amazing in
1. jw
2. friends
some have wondered about where i come from on the topic of faith.

and, as we all ponder our past jw religion, and the events of the day, i need to take some time to address matters of my faith, as i look for some answers.. when adam was created, god did not wait for adam to play a guessing game and start praying.

rather, god reached out to adam.
