I heard his voice today, and now I feel removed from his presence
by EntirelyPossible ini heard his voice today.
it was full of authority of old, full of gravitas.
it meant something to me, it spoke to my heart.

Help! Instead of worrying about Jesus today... I may have been evil in the sight of the Lord
by EntirelyPossible ini got up early, did some work, went to the market and got some fresh ground italian sausage, went to the farmers market and picked up some locally grown organic tomatoes and cantaloupes, went home, made fresh pasta sauce from the tomatoes and some herbs from my garden, made dinner, decanted a bottle of red zinfandel, had dinner with a lovely woman, sat on the couch with some wine and fresh fruit and watched corialanus, spent some quality time together, then cleaned the kitchen and dished and now i am watching tom waits on david letterman.. i seriously considered playing golf today, but fresh made pasta sauce was more important.. i didn't worry about jesus at all.
am i evil?
i may have committed a biblical sin after dinner and a movie, if that matters..

JWs wouldn't preach despite multiple opportunities...
by EntirelyPossible ini was on a date tonight, eating in a cuban restaurant owned by jws (they have never met me, incidentally, the food was really good) when i realized that there was not just one, but two conventions in town.
one was the standard english speaking district convention folks, the other was the asl folks using the assembly hall in town for their district convention.. my date, who knows all about my jw past, tries to strike up a conversation with some of them sitting at the bar, asks them what they are in town for, etc.
they just said "for a convention".

I think God is trying to tell me something
by EntirelyPossible inin the past month, i've two very powerful experiences that make me think god might be trying to tell me something.
let me relate these experiences.. about a month ago, i was looking for something missing from my life, i felt empty.
i went in search of something to fill the emptiness and suddenly found myself face to face with jw's in service and immediately after i no longer felt empty and i found what i was searching for.

The Science Thread
by EntirelyPossible ini am starting this thread because so many others have taken such interesting turns and, on some ocassions, been threadjacked, sometimes by me.
i hesitate to post it in "personal experiences" because it is most certainly not a personal experience, but i don't know what would be a better area.. the purpose here is to clear up a lot of confusion about what science and the scientific method are and are not.
science is a method for investigating observations, gaining knowledge, correcting knowledge.

Neutrinos faster than the speed of light...
by EntirelyPossible inreferencing back to this thread, http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/jw/friends/216165/1/what-is-truth-could-einstein-have-been-wrong..... i was doing some reading on the neutrino thing and i discovered somthing i didn't know, a subtle but important distinction i think a lot of us get wrong about relativity and nothing being able to move faster than the speed of light.. there are two theories of relativity from einstein, general and special.
general relativity (gr) describes gravity, gravity wells, the expansion of the universe, gravitional lensing, among other things.
special relativity (sr) describes things like mass-energy equivalence (e=mc^2), the expansion of the universe and spacetime itself.. sr doesn't say nothing can go faster than the speed of light (c in the equation).
