more about cars and n.y.c.. back then hundreds of cars were stolen, in the city everyday!

the new york post said "the average life span of a corvette (sports car) parked on the street was 24 hours!

"...........one time coming back from r.i at 2:00 a.m. i took a wrong turn in the south bronxs.........not a place you would want to be in, that time of night............as i was driving around trying to find my way back to the express way, i could see the sparks form the cuting torches, people cuting up the cars they stolen the day before..........i was praying "please god get me out of here".

new boy

Cars are fun!....hope this isn't t****ing my horn.

i've been warned.

i keep saying little things to my husband, and he clearly won't budge any more then he already has.

i just want him to see the truth.

Thats a great idea.

If he he doesn't want to read it. Tell him you want to go to the elders and confess what you guys did before you got married.

That will gert his attendtion.

the the worst thing, someone could call you at bethel, was a "jack".............. as in " that guy is a real jack, he doesn't work at all".

the other term not used very much anymore, was "pot licker" used basically the same way.there has been some bad things done at bethel.

you name it, someone has done it...........but the absolute worst possible thing, a bethelite could do is be a theft!

Dear Inkling

I'm sure Curtis Johnson is a lovely person now....But he was a self rightious jerk in 1972.

If you read all my Bethel post...you would have read that I too was a rightious Nazis JW at one time...the lovely about life...we all the ability to change.

Are married to Curtis or something?

Did/Does God really love people?

by buffalosrfree in

at john 3:16 god says he loved the world so much that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believed in him will have everlasting life.

yet in revelation satan and the demons were kicked out of heaven and hurled to the earth.

how is that loving, what could possibly be the reason he would do that if he really loved us.

new boy

What if my friend...God and his love is real but the bible is not?

To whom do you MOST feel the need to justify yourself?

by Abandoned in

jw
friends

is it your parents?

your spouse?

a religious organization?

The only reason to justify anything is if you are making some kind of stand on any given subject. The need to feel "right" about something. The ego wants to be right. To "justify" its self.

So I would have to say no one. Since there is nothing I need to "prove" or "be right about"... to make myself feel better...

And since I have been so wrong about just about everything in life so far...how I make any kind of stand on anything?
