Honesty. Is This Stealing?
by Country Girl inmy husband and i had a heated debate over this issue one day.
he made the point (at another time) that god views one sin as bad as another.
i said i thought god viewed certain crimes as more despicable: that a man stealing food for his family probably wasn't as bad as a murderer.

Idiot work mates
by Descender ini don't really understand why some people can be such idiots.
how can people dismiss every other person's religion or belief as illogical while holding strong to their own illogical beliefs.
i work with a few bush worshiping ultra conservatives.

Coincidences
by Descender ini had a funny experience the other day.
i went out with a girl who was into astrology, i personally don't give that sort of thing much credence.
but as she got to know me, she kept on getting a more and more surprised look on her face.

Hairless Dudes???
by eisenstein innow i've been around the borg for quite a long time (not recently thanks god).
but one thing i could never understand was the borg's rule for hair on men.
i think the borg's simple minds are just too limited for this world.. i only know of two brothers who i ever saw wear a beard.

This ever happen to you?
by Descender inhas anyone here ever tried to tread lightly until a certain date just so you won't screw up someone else's event by getting disfellowshipped or speaking your mind and getting shunned?.

Disfellowshipped
by Descender injust wondering, how many of you were a glutton for punishment and kept on going back and getting re-instated after succesive disfellowshippings?
i was disfellwshipped twice, the first time i was re-instated six months after and then six months later i was df'd again, then i came back in 4 years later and then a year later i faded away.
that's where i stand at the moment.

Witness Gathering
by Descender inwell, i went to my first witness gathering i'd been to in probably 7 years this last weekend.
i know, who goes to a witness gathering when they haven't even gone to the hall in 2 years?
well, it was a wedding shower type thing for one of my close family members and i was asked, so i decided since i had nothing better to do, it would be a fun look at the other side, and i wanted to know if i was past all that witness lingo and guilt.. i really didn't know very many people at all there, but i do have to say, i'm past it.
