Jephthah's daughter
by Cicatrix inso the wts taught us all that jephthah sacrificed his daughter to jehovah's service at the temple.
well, that's not what i found out today.
i was reading a site on archeology, and they mentioned that jephthah had offered up his daughter as a burnt offering, and that this was sometimes practiced by the canaanites.the article said that some of the israelites had initially settled peacefully amongst the canannites about two hundred years before joshua conquered jericho, and that this is an example of how they adopted some of the canaanite practices.

What's Your Definition of A Nice Guy or Girl?
by Cicatrix int's thread and some life experiences have got me to wondering about this.
i honestly am not sure if i know what a nice guy/woman is (odd thing to admit, half way through my life).
the wts defined nice guy as spiritual, striving to "take the lead", putting jehovah first in all things, a "responsible family head"(open to the interpretation of local needs, lol).a nice woman is above all, submissive, putting jehovah and hubby first, and hard working.

My Sister With Four Kids Is Losing Her Home-Any Advice??
by Cicatrix ini'm just kind of throwing this out there, because i'm at wits end.. my sister is about to be put on the street because she can't make her house payments.
the poor woman works like a dog, goes to college full time (the college has no student housing), and takes care of four kids on her own.
the kid's father (whom she divorced for cheating and saddling her with all his debts) moved to the other side of the country, supposedly to obtain work and send her back some money .
