    Do I detect a spirit of intolerance on the beloved JWD board? Some posters can speak about anything and get a gaggle of positive responses. Others get beaten down for simply expressing a different viewpoint. Perhaps I'm marching to a different beat, but this doesn't seem right.

    What I'm seeing at the top left corner of this page is JEHOVAHS-WITNESS Discussion forum.com ... everyone welcome!

    Shouldn't we all live up to the true meaning of JWD's slogan?

    Well I like how when it comes to revenge on JW's a lot of people seem willing to sink to the same tactics they hate JW's for. Ahhhh the irony.

    Snowbird,

    I know, and sometimes it's not WHAT someone says, it's HOW they say it.

    This is where you must remember that some still have that "J.W." spirit.

    You must be ready to "give it, the way you get it", and damn the "etiquette", on occasion.

    heh, this has a strong potential to become a cinderblock post.

    I'll give it a bump. :)

    Hobo started a thread the other day about feeling like she's the lone pagan here on JWD.

    Quite a few non-pagans encouraged her to stick around in spite of differing world views.

    Parakeet summed it up pretty well with this observation:

    Sometimes the non-Christians here like to throw the Christians to the lions, and sometimes the Christians throw the non-Christians into hellfire. Nothing to worry about; it's just business as usual. We all make up afterward and then start fighting again another day.

    It's all good. Any views are welcome. Just don't think they'll go unchallenged by at least someone.

    it's true...and it is the way it should be! you must CRUSH any opinions that differ with your own with an iron FIST!! Why, just the other day, the butcher at the grocery store told me that I shouldn't leave steaks under my couch...haHA!!!...I showed him! No matter what he said, I just kept telling him that I was right and his vile propaganda would not work on my advanced intellect...then I punched him in the throat and left.

    And that is what you must do on jwd...go back to your kingdom hall, you slithery snake of a jehovah's witnessssssSS!!!
