    WHITE DOVE- " We've all missed you ." Good one to control others with.

    DAN the MAN- I agree with you. You can just feel the control in the questions they ask in the WT study, can't you ? Also yes , the robotic answers that leave you with no options but to answer what's written in the paragraph ! Talk about control.

    DMOUSE- The witnesses definitely want people to concede to their point of view.

    NOT FEELING IT- I gotcha, understand. You were just being funny ! It's cool

    "Worldy people aren't really happy." "Jehovah's people know true joy!"

    Just remembered a couple weeks ago a JW friend and I crossed paths with a young doctor and the bunch of hot, young nurses that work in his office. After talking about how rich, successful, well-educated, world-travelled, and handsome he was, I (jokingly of course) started in on the "Yeah, worldly people like that aren't really happy." We were laughing so hard at revising the quotes we'd heard for so many years. "Okay, so maybe he thinks he's happy, but he's not really joyful." "How can he be satisfied with such a worldly lifestyle. He'll never know the joy of awakening angry people on Saturday morning by knocking on their doors. Real pleasure doesn't come from playing golf, vacations, or sky-diving. Pleasure is conducting a Bible Study with a convicted criminal in prison." Yeah, we shoulda been DFd for that afternoon's conversation!

    NINJA- Yes, that would be a controlling statement if the woman you were boinking told you not to leave and that her presiding overseer boxing husband would be home any minute ! Jeez ! I still think I'd get the hell out of there - no matter how much she begged ! I'm not easily controlled.

    BILLY the EX BETHELITE - Yeah, the kicker of it though is worldly people really are happy ! LOL! I'd much rather go hiking or fishing in the mountains or golfing than getting doors slammed in my face on Saturday mornings ! Don't worry - the elders won't DF you for talking about it ! LOL! But, then again, you never know ! Peace out, Mr. Flipper

    "If this system is still around..." Since you are showing lack of faith by speaking about anything remotely in the future (that is not WT related) so many people preface it with this...

    Marry only in the lord...wait...on second thought, no, don't marry. Oh, and don't commit fornication. Well, I guess that takes adultry out of the picture as no one will be married. And while you are busy not being married or committing fornication, be sure to fill the earth and subdue it! Wait! No, it is unchristian to have kids in this time that we are living. But be sure to fill the earth!

    The earth done the WT way would look something like this: All wives, no husbands, no sex, and everyone's a bastard but legitimate and Catholic. Immaculate conceptions, ya know. Hmm...interesting.
