  Trying not to 'contaminate' others

  by SM62 in

  does anyone else feel the same that they feel afraid when approached by a particular bro or sis, particularly one you like and who is really nice.

  i feel that i may get them into trouble just for talking to me.

  i don't want to drop them in it so i always keep the conversation short.

  I dont see how you could possibly "contaminate" others, escpecially if they have "The Truth"

  Is there anything you'd willingly give your life for?

  i would willingly give my life to save my child.

  i'm sure that would be the same answer for most parents, but how about those people without kids?

  I'd give my life as a ransom to save all mankind LOL

  Only my kids, at the drop of a hat. Funny thing is, I could never contemplate dying for anyone or anything until my kids were born. Even as a Dub when we were told about persecution and dying for Jehoover, I knew I'd never do it.

  ever since my dad passed on, i've been barraged by relatives telling me to "come back to jehoover.

  " i was over at my grandmother's house for a family dinner and they were barraging me again.

  it got so annoying that i decided to do what i always do whenever i'm stressed or bored, which is do artwork, especially caligraphy.

  "Dear Lord: The gods have been good to me. For the first time in my life, everything is absolutely perfect just the way it is. So here's the deal:
  
  You freeze everything the way it is, and I won't ask for anything more. If that is OK, please give me absolutely no sign. OK, deal. In gratitude, I present you this offering of cookies and milk. If you want me to eat them for you, give me no sign. Thy will be done."
  

  Amen to that!

  What search engine do you most often use and why?

  very curious...there's a reason for this question.

  does anyone perceive if there is a proclivity toward a certain engine if one is, say, computer savvy?

  college grad?

  how many of you came to this board, only to find others you knew when you were witnesses?.

  perhaps you didn't know the other person had left.

  or you knew they'd left, but had lost touch, only to be reunited here?

  Thanks guys. I've ordered the book from amazon, along with the book recommended by myxomatosis (The case for Christ)

  I say take everyone’s opinion with a grain of salt. Read the book, research, and make up your own mind. Everyone has a bias based on their own experiences.

  That is exactly what I intend to do. Its great that we're now allowed to read these apostate books without having to look over our shoulder. If anyone has any more recommendations, especially on the archaeological aspects of the boble, I'd be real grateful
