Armaggedon Nightmares
by perfect1 infrom time to time i have an apocalyptic nightmare, which i attribute to the wt doctrines being planted in my head from birth.. recently, i dreamed i was standing in a skyscraper in nyc when a flying metal sphere came into my hands.
from the window i could see the city was exploding- (looking south towards lower manhattan) the metal sphere was a homing device for the missiles as well as camera which was observing- anyway i grabbed it and decided that as it was directing the attack, the attack would end with me.
so i held it up at the window where i could see the city being destroyed- flames, explosions, orange grey- and as i did the missiles headed my way.

Checklist for marriage
by PaintedToeNail indoes anyone remember the check list for qualities one should look for in a prospective marriage mate?
it was several years ago or more since it was pprinted and maybe in ypa.
i remember at the time that the 'good, spiritual person' was supposed to look for all these spiritual qualities rather than physical ones.
