Is This What God Purposed?

All I know is what I read in the papers.

Golly! Do you mean the bible will help me address the stock market and make me rich?

How can the Bible prevent the death of my loved ones? or illness? or terrorism? or crime?.....?

What it can do is help you understand God's will.

George is quoted here:


All others pay cash.

Q: As a JW are you taking the soft option by attempting to preach on the internet ? Wouldn't you gain more celestial points by getting out there in elements, proselytising in the streets and knocking on doors ?
No pain - no gain !

God is gonna require that no pistachios are sold in bags of less than a pound.That alone oughta take care of some of the kvetching.

It's not meant to prevent any of those things. Didn't you get the word? Death can be something to look forward to, not prevented.

This just in!
God said it ok fpor jews to eat bacon and crabcakes

It can't and it doesn't profess to, what it does is gives you guidance to improve quality of life in the world we live in, and a manifesto for the world to come.

I am not going to convince you that it is correct, but for those who hold to the bible, hope is a powerful thing, and there is sensible guidance on how to navigate the difficulties one faces in this life, some of which you will disagree with regardless If the bible is moot and I don't get any "reward" I have lived a happy existence, and am rather satisfied with the life I have gotten from being a believer.

Give me birthdays and give me death!

Stop waiting! You can buy as big a bag as you want NOW!

you must try to follow the point.
ince I dont live in California any longer, Im not able to buy really large bags (like 25 pouners)

The market dwells on these damn small inconsistent volume bags. SOme bags are 2 oz, some bags are 64 grams, we have oz, 1/4 pound, a few 1/2 pound bags nd many grm bags.
CONSISTENCY IN PISTACHIO SALES. That shpould keep some god busy for a few centuries as he tries to understnd how marketing works.

Leaving on a side trip to CA in 11 days. If I lived closer I'd pick you up a bag.
But Publix in FL sells them in bulk and you can weigh the bag yourself. I usually go for dry roasted cashews. Not enough will power for unlimited pistachios laying around.

Ill say that you arent allergic to poison ivy (a member of the cashew family of plants) Anywhere special in Calif?

I believe the Society we live in today is Satan's doing. Just like a toilet that is backed up, it needs a desperate flushing.

You mean SANTA, no?

Santa, Satan, same difference. {:-)

God can go EAD
