What should I say/have said?

Steve, no matter what those crystals represent to some people I thought they were beautiful! Too bad that people take things to the extreme, huh? Worshiping the creation instead of the Creator? Sad...
There are many beautiful things in God's creation, but we don't have to worship them! It should bring one closer to the Creator of the beauty! She should have just said, "Wow! nice crystals!" But hey, at least you got to know her a little better, huh?

Indeed, Kathy.  We've worked together for years to ensure handicapped people, especially the blind, have equal access to the stuff our agency makes.

The "attitude," if indeed she had one, may be because I stopped accepting the JW's in our home a while back.  She wasn't one of them, but she is a JW.

Ninny:
Oh, now that does make sense! We used to have some friends when we lived in Sierra Vista, Az we were in the Army stationed at Ft Huachuca. We left there and went to Hawaii and met up with them again! Well, things were different when we met up with them again! We used to visit in each other's houses and have dinner together. At that time I was a Seventh Day Adventist and in the time that had passed they had become JW's, they never associated with us again! I went to the library to get some information on JW's and I guess they were instructed that unless you were trying to recruit someone for the church you were not to socialize with them! I may be wrong about this, but it made sense to me for their drastic change.
Interesting, huh?

Greetings Steve

Fret not be of "Good" cheer the Will of the Father is being done.

Bismuth is also mentioned in the ancient Qabalah, although credit for discovery of this element is given to an unknown 15th century alchemist

Your co-worker had mentioned this word which I have been perplexed about.  It has crossed my path more than once lately.

 There is a documentary about the sun aligning with the earth in the year 2012 and the destruction of the entire enhabited earth that it will cause. This reminds me of a statement by Peter the Apostle about the elements being destroyed with fervent heat and being more concerned about the spiritual than that of the natural.

 When commenting on Nostradomus some ancient prediction guy they said he was an alchemist.  When I looked up the word in an old websters dictionary it had nothing to do with futuretelling.  It just refered to making new metals from mixing other metals in nature. Nothing about anything "spiritual" at all. Obviously someone is making things up again and again and again etc.  No wonder Paul said

Ro3(Concordant) What, then, is the prerogative of the Jew, or what the benefit of circumcision?
2 Much in every manner. For first, indeed, that they were entrusted with the oracles of God.
3 For what if some disbelieve? Will not their unbelief nullify the faithfulness of God?
4 May it not be coming to that! Now let God be true, yet every man a liar, even as it is written: "That so Thou shouldst be justified in Thy sayings, And shalt be conquering when Thou art being judged."
5 Now if our injustice is commending God's righteousness, what shall we declare? Not that God Who is bringing on indignation is unjust! (As a man am I saying it.)
6 May it not be coming to that! Else how shall God be judging the world?
7 Yet if the truth of God superabounds in my lie, for His glory, why am I also still being judged as a sinner,
8 and why not say, according as we are calumniated(?) and according as some are averring that we are saying, that "We should be doing evil that good may be coming"? -- whose judgment is fair.
9 What, then? Are we privileged? Undoubtedly not, for we previously charge both Jews and Greeks to be all under sin,
10 according as it is written, that "Not one is just" -- not even one.
11 Not one is understanding. Not one is seeking out God.
12 "All avoid Him: at the same time they were useless. Not one is doing kindness: there is not even one!"
13 "A sepulcher opened is their throat. With their tongues they defraud." "The venom of asps is under their lips."
14 Whose mouth with imprecation and bitterness is crammed.
15 Sharp are their feet to shed blood.
16 "Bruises and wretchedness are in their ways,
17 And the way of peace they do not know."
18 There is no fear of God in front of their eyes.

Looking to the Author and Finisher "Truth"
