Steve Wonder Talking Book

I was wondering if Leviticus could be the most appropriate book of the Bible that needs to contain this absolutely valuable message.

Or should it maybe be entered into Genesis with the story about our creation?

Or should it be written into Revelation where God talks about the Rapture?

Since this is such a crucial passage for Christians, you can not let the opportunity go by to exclude this from your Bible
I hope you realize this question is aimed at Christians who over use this statement of idiocracy.

I would put it after, all characters and situations in this book are fictional and any resemblance to people living or dead or actual events is merely coincidental.

1972 - Talking Book

That is my question to you, and yes that has happened to me, in fact today. Earlier this morning this morning, in the 2nd hour of the show, I saw Mike and Mike intrewied on thier show Tony Dungy, about his children's book You Can Do it, I caught it on ESPN 2, and uyes I know it is a radio show, with the rare option of seeing it live on TV as well, on an every day basis. Then in in the last half hour, I heard him talking to Steve Cochran on WGN Radio 720, and he was also prompoting the same show, this I would say at 4:40 (Central time) on Steve Cochran's radio shown on WGN Radio 720. So I am now wondering, if this has ever happened to you?

not on the radio but I have seen the same guest on 2 different shows the same day

Price: $13.98

So my son is almost 19 months, and i read to him 2-3 times a day.
or more if he gives me a book to read.

but i was watching Steve Wilkos like i always do at 11-12.

he he was sitting by his books ([2 shelves FULL]) and he was pretending to read big dog little dog.

and he was just makeing up words, and was fliping threw each page talking, and then at the end. he closed it and started clapping.

it was ssssoooo cute.

so i was wondering if its okay that he does it by himself. or maybe i should behind his shoulder.

or does it just mean that he will be reading by himself shortly?
11am-12pm i think all 19 month old should be up at this time, unless its there nap.

That's a big gigantic step to reading.

Reading skills development

Holding book any way and turning several pages at a time
Holding book any way and turning one page at a time.
Holding book in right direction and turning pages (front to back or back to front)
Holding book and turning pages correctly
Holding book and turning pages while 'reading' the book

Reading is defined as talking about the photos, saying any word from memory that is on the page, making up own story.



He is probably a few years away from true reading, but he's got a really good start! Good for you for reading to him enough that he already knows what to do!

The Big Lie?
As a Jehovah's Witness, I believed Christians had it all wrong …
By Steve Berg as told to Chris Lutes

As I walked into the youth room, I felt my stomach churn and my mouth go dry. I knew I shouldn't be in this church. … or any church. But I had to be there, even if it meant doing something my own religion (not to mention my mom) said was wrong.

I needed to point these misguided Christians to the real truth.

When my friend Brad and I entered the room, I saw about 30 kids. A couple of them were playing Ping-Pong, others were parked in front of a video game, but most were just talking and joking around. Brad pointed toward Bob, the youth pastor. I swallowed hard and headed straight for him. As I looked into his eyes, I blurted out, "How can you believe in the Trinity? Nowhere in the Bible does it say Jesus is God!"

I didn't mean to sound rude. I just felt that he should know how wrong he was.

As the goofy grin on his face softened into a caring smile, he asked, "Are you a Jehovah's Witness?"

I stammered, "H-h-ow did you know?"

"Well, you know, Jehovah's Witnesses have a problem with the Trinity . …"

A Three-Headed Monster
I had more than a problem with the Trinity. As a committed Jehovah's Witness (JW), my mother had taught me that the Trinity was a big lie. When I was around 8 years old, I remember hearing her call the Trinity a "three-headed-monster god." It was quite a frightening image to a kid!

I was also scared when Mom read me a book about Armageddon—the great, final disaster that would destroy all evil and bring "Paradise" on Earth. I was spellbound by the book's pictures of terrified people being swallowed by earthquakes and swept away by floods. If I wasn't a good JW, that's what would happen to me.

The book was published by the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society, which develops doctrines and rules for the JW religion. The Watchtower also published the New World Translation of the Bible—the only translation JWs are allowed to read.

The Watchtower had many strict rules. And if we didn't follow them, we wouldn't have a chance at getting into Paradise. As far as religious writings went, we could only read Watchtower publications. We were supposed to regularly attend meetings at a Kingdom Hall (which is sort of like going to church, but it's not a church). And we were supposed to go door to door, telling others what we believed was the truth about Jehovah, the word all JWs use for God.

Why Believe This Stuff?
When I became a teenager, I was trying hard to be a good JW. After all, my good works would determine whether or not I would make it into Paradise.

I read the whole New World Translation (NWT). I went to almost every meeting at the Kingdom Hall. But I was too shy for the door-to-door stuff. Unfortunately, I knew I was a long way from Paradise.

I also began having doubts. What made my religion true? What about other religions, like Buddhism and Islam? I asked a lot of questions of an older JW, and she answered them all. But I still had so many questions.

I wondered about the Bible, too. Why should I believe it? What made it true? When my sophomore English teacher assigned a term paper on the topic of my choice, I immediately knew I wanted to research something that would answer these questions. Before the assignment was made, I'd heard about the Dead Sea Scrolls—ancient manuscripts that were supposed to help prove the Bible was a reliable historical document. I decided to do my paper on these ancient writings.

Unfortunately, I was reading the wrong translation of the Bible. Although I didn't know it at the time, I later learned that the NWT is full of all kinds of errors and untruths—all put there by the Watchtower people to support the beliefs of the JW religion. But while I was doing my research, I never thought to question whether or not the NWT was the correct English translation of the Bible's Hebrew and Greek languages. I thought if my research into the scrolls proved the original manuscripts were true, it would prove that the NWT Bible was true. And my research did convince me that the Dead Sea Scrolls were worth believing.

I was almost convinced that the JW religion was the truth. Still, I felt that before I could completely believe, I had to do one more thing: I had to convince one person that my religion was the one and only true religion. If I could do that, I promised Jehovah I'd become the best Witness ever.

Were Christians Really Evil?
I thought I'd found that person in Brad, a guy in my gym class who was different from most guys. I was lousy at sports, and most guys picked on me when I messed up. Not Brad. When I made a mistake, he'd say, "That's OK, Steve. Keep trying!"

Brad and I started hanging out. I'd go to his house, and we'd order a pizza and watch a movie. And we always ended up talking religion. I tried to convince him that what I believed was true. But Brad had his own "agenda." As a committed Christia

My thoughts on this?

I don't think it's written by a Jehovah's Witness because of some of the terms that the writer uses.

There is no way that we think that other Christians are evil. We would never say or even think such a thing. And while we don't agree with the Trinity, we would never describe it as a three headed monster... & certainly not to a child!
Next, why would this youth be going into a church telling someone that the Trinity teaching is wrong if he is shy & nervous & (as he said) he isn't allowed in a church? This is fiction.

Next... "As far as religious writings went, we could only read Watchtower publications" - FALSE

And... "...the New World Translation of the Bible—the only translation JWs are allowed to read" - FALSE
I use many different translations of the bible as do many other Jehovah's Witnesses.
Rather, this is a misconception by many & thus why I don't believe it's written by a Witness.

Also, the description "The Watchtower people" is a term that Witnesses (or ex Witnesses) don't use.

This is a work of fiction by an anti-Jehovah's Witness, likely written with the purpose of stirring up opposition against us

I’m writing this to you because I’m very upset at Allison. Before I tell you why I’m so troubled I don’t want you to get the wrong idea or that I hate her. I tried to get along, I went out to eat, and I went to the fireworks, and I went to the surprise party with you. I know that you thanked me and were very appreciative of my presence. I have told you how I felt several times as well. I over reacted at the surprise party afterwards. I thought hey I will give it a second time and try to forgive Allison for hurting my feelings at Wal-Mart. I went home yesterday after an awesome day of work! ha-ha Do you know how hard it is to come home happy working morning shift? Well, I really wanted to check and see how my books were doing which were bad by the way, and I went on face book because I had messaged Chris about your birthday present and asked if it was a good idea. I actually just wanted his input, but instead I had a little paragraph saying yeah that’s great!......... Allison wHey Steve! I’m writing this to you because I’m very upset at Allison. Before I tell you why I’m so troubled I don’t want you to get the wrong idea or that I hate her. Steve I tried to get along, I went out to eat, and I went to the fireworks, and I went to the surprise party with you. I know that you thanked me and were very appreciative of my presence. I have told you how I felt several times as well. I over reacted at the surprise party afterwards.

I went home yesterday after an awesome day of work! ha-ha Do you know how hard it is to come home happy working morning shift? Well, I really wanted to check and see how my books were doing which were bad by the way, and I went on face book because I had messaged Chris about your birthday present and asked if it was a good idea. I actually just wanted his input, but instead I had a little paragraph saying yeah that’s great!......... Allison was looking at your face book and noticed that you still have pictures of Katie and I on there and I was wondering if you can take them off. So I clicked off his message and ha-ha went to see these pictures so I clicked in Krista’s the shit and saw a couple of Katie and Chris that I had taken. Ones by the tree and so fourth when we went to the city together. I thought to myself wow yeah if Steve had other pictures on Chris’s face book I’d get a little mad too so I took them off, Steve I saw where she was coming from I was wondering why she didn’t ask me and Chris had to but whatever. He asked me something else about you at the end and I told him I didn’t know yet. I checked it yesterday to see if I got any inboxes cause I sent one to Lydia saying I have books if she needs them and don’t buy them. Anyways, I had gotten an inbox from Chris again saying hey can you delete one more picture of me and Katie in Krista’s the shit, the one of all of us, Allison really doesn’t like that one. Okay, I love YOU Steve but I’m about to explode over this. Honestly, I’m trying here but I feel like I’m walking on glass with her. First, Allison couldn’t have sent me and inbox but Chris did, that doesn’t really bother me that much. Steve do you know what bothers me a lot is that is an awesome picture of us and that a memory of you and me and like HFA and Freddy Katie and Chris are all in it regardless if we don’t talk to these people I left it up for a reason. For me and you! I don’t have this picture tagged with anybody its innocently in my first photo album that I ever mad. I haven’t commented on it or made it the cover picture or flaunted it in anyway. Steve I’m really upset over this and feel Allison is immature and needs to grow up honestly it’s a picture. She really shouldn’t go and look at my pictures if she doesn’t want to see it. I think it’s absolutely ridiculous and I shouldn’t get mad over something like this, but frankly why do I have to delete my past from her? I’m really at the point where I almost want to block her if it’s really that important to her than I think she has problems. You might look at it differently but I don’t I talked to a lot of people before I freaked out. The only way this will end between is If someone confronts her. Steve I love you and lately all this girl has been doing is causing friction between and I really feel bad on your part because you have your best friend plus his girlfriend and your girlfriend. You want to hang out with your friend but your girlfriend doesn’t necessarily like his girlfriend all that much. Steve, I’m going to delete the picture even though I despise the idea. If this happens again I will say something to Allison. I’m doing this for you, because I love you.

How the hell did you bypass the character limit >_>
