Hmm, will this lead to another long debate?

Interesting insights.

Imagine knocking on someone's door on Christmas, informing people they are wrong to celebrate Christmas.

Missing the spiritual boat...

John 14:6, that is key.

thekingpin68,

Hmm, will this lead to another long debate?

I sure hope not. I am already very backed up with the one I'm in. I am very busy applying for jobs, etc., and I don't have that much time right now to spend hours every day in a debate.

Interesting insights.

Yes, I thought so, and it gives me a better idea of what being a JW is like.

satire and theology,

Yes, it would seem that even common sense should tell you doing something like that would be counter-productive.

John 14:6, that is key.

Amen.

"Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."

I hope you get a rest from debating and related.

I hope you are ble$$ed.

Thx.

thekingpin68,

I hope you get a rest from debating and related.

Thank you. I have just now posted and answered most of the remaining comments that the JW left. But I strongly suspect that many more will come. However, the fact that I am almost caught up at the moment is a good feeling.

I hope you are ble$$ed.

Thank you. Hopefully I will be in the near future, but so far it has not happened yet. But I am applying for 1-3 open positions every day, and therefore am keeping very busy looking for available jobs, applying and going to interviews. I was just talking to a couple family members the other day about this, and they both agree that it looks like things are only going to get worse and worse, and maybe we are being prepared and trained to get ready for much harder times to come. I suspect that this is only the beginning, and that we as Christians may have to face things far worse than anything we have faced yet. But God's will be done. And may all of this serve to cause us to rely on Him even more, and hang on more tightly and more dearly to our Lord Jesus Christ, and to seek to consistently and continuously be filled with the power of the Holy Spirit (without Whose power we cannot live a victorious Christian life). Because we're gonna need it.

Well, my LDS article has been ranked as high as #4 with 'lds temple langley' on Google.

I am not trying to 'pee on their cornflakes' but am simply providing a public theological service and generating blog interest.

I will debate somewhat if required.

I am still waiting for my friend to write his review for the main body.

Hope you are better.

Well done.

Ha, cool.

Now there's some gross and disgusting imagery that I have never heard before. But your point makes sense.

I am still waiting for my friend to write his review for the main body.

I assume you mean your blog and not your thesis. I think I must have missed something here.

Hope you are better.

Yes, I am well now. Thanks, Russ.

Well done.

Thanks. I am in desperation mode.

Common saying, here in BC, not meant to disgust but to to make a point.

Thanks, my friend.:)

Ok. New to me, but then I've never been to Canada, and I've spent probably the greater portion of my life around Hispanics from a Communist country.

Ha, yeah. Not worth anything.

'Wirdo' is the Word Verification.

Interesting. Cult-appropriate word.
