  dear and gentle readers,.

  kindly apply the sweet words of our dear emily to why small deeds have been so meaningful to you or another individual in time of need.

  no kindness is ever for naught.. deepest gratitude,.

  That's the only ED poem I know, and isn't it so beautiful? Thanks for bringing this to the top, CoCo. :)
  
  I think that avoiding pain and helping others who are in pain, is natural? I accept pain, but hell, no. I don't like it.

  lol @ Gregor - we celebrate it on a Monday, not Thursday ...... but I think it falls on a Thursday this year in the US of A. *wink wink*

  It's a stupid holiday, I agree with you, and annoying that someone decided to adopt any USA holiday.

  This is one of the weirdest threads .... I know so many people who wear rings? My roommate wears three?
  
  Whack-a-doo! I agree with Rebel8, what's the big deal? I guess it's just one of those 'making fun of JWs for no solid reason' threads.

  And I doubt he'd be flashing a Free Mason ring if he has one ........ that would be just TOO obvious, as they are hard to come by - rarely does a non FM possess one. This I know because I sold them for many years.

  I really liked the cop series "The Shield" (some violence, but not tons), and haven't watched The Wire yet. Breaking Bad is a TERRIFIC drama and story is excellent - you'll laugh, you'll get a tear in your eye. There is some violence at times, but it's all about the tale, and I recommened it, too. :D
  
  Another really good drama I've been watching is Nurse Jackie.
  
  haha, I'm recently housebound and was never a TV watcher, so now I try to find good ones. The prison drama OZ was one of my fav shows ever, too (HBO).

  Can a religion claim: “Only we have the truth”?

  by Kalos in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  truth is self-evident (things like: the whole is greater than its part ....).. truth is always right (things like: caring for the accident victim helplessly bleeding on the road ....).. claiming: only we have the truth is like claiming: only my university is useful.

  history shows that many school/college drop-outs have made significant contributions to the society like many those who completed their education!

  and on the contrary, many school/college drop-outs have made significant damage to the society like some of those who completed their education!

  They can claim anything they want .......... all religion is based on mythology and mystical thinking - none of it provable - so, yeah.

  Hell, I am the true Wonder Woman! Prove me wrong!
