Its a lot of work preparing for company. It's really annoying they only stayed the length they did for the WT study. It's a vacation! You can miss a meeting! Come on.

"The Finished Mystery" - William Miller, a member of the "little flock"
by EdenOne inwiki: "william miller (february 15, 1782 december 20, 1849) was an american baptist preacher who is credited with beginning the mid-nineteenth century north american religious movement now known as adventism.
among his direct spiritual heirs are several major religious denominations, including seventh-day adventists and advent christians.
later movements found inspiration in miller's emphasis on bible prophecy.

The truly amazing thing is no one I know still in knows anything about this. They would accuse me of apostasy for telling them that Miller was an inspiration to Russel. Disturbing.

So, my husband would not even meet the elders who just happened to drop by this morning.
by Julia Orwell inhe stayed inside and kept going about his business like they weren't even there.
i engaged them on the verandah hut politely explained that they'd caught us at a bad time as we were doing a big cleanup of the house.
the elders had even bought a pack of chocolate cookies around, so they were expecting to be invited in and offered coffee.

If man evolved?
by tornapart ini know anyone who believes in evolution is going to say that there is no 'if' about it.
however.... if man evolved over hundreds of thousands of years ago, why were there only about 200-300 million people alive 2,000 years ago?
surely there'd have been many billions by then?.

In 1911 the avg age was less than it is now. Yes, people lived to 80 sometimes. But not as often as now. And, 1,000 years ago people definitely lived shorter lives.
