    Hello, all.

    It's been a lonnnnnng time since I've been to the Forum. I've missed all (okay...MOST) of you.

    Anyway.... I was watching the american television show 'Blind Date' last night and this woman got matched up with some religious, born-again NUT!

    When they meet each other, he starts handing her religious material, a book, a tract, AND.........The Greatest Man Who Ever Lived book!!!

    I was like, 'What the...?'! Did anyone else see this? Do born-againers use JW literature sometimes? Am I the only mindless drone who watches 'Blind Date'?

    Speculating here, but here's what I think happened...

    It was probably a set-up by the producers. Ya know, the Hollywood crowd is so clueless about religion. One of the producers was given the Greatest Man book by a JW at his door. When discussing the upcoming show where they were going to use a born-again religious nut, the producer who had the GM book says "hey a few years ago some religious guy came to my door and gave me a book about Jesus. We can use it as a prop in the show."

    Hey lil bro!

    No, born-againers I know DO NOT use JW literature. I think what DanThe MAn said is probably what happened. It could always be possible that he merged the 2 together.

    Born agains HATE JW's, the only literature I think they would have would be apostate.

    UH!uh! not all born agains hate JWs>>>>I am one & I LOVE the JWS so much!!I had a friend tell me that a Jehovahs Witness told her SHE was a born again ( the JW)..So maybe it is a new angle.

    As for a born again being a NUT!!!!! your right I am one that got cracked!!!Didnt scripture say God is using "broken vessals" Or in my words "Cracked pots">>>>Holds hand up Thats me!!!!

    Oooops no offence meant mouthy, but from my school days and a teacher I had that was one he always taught us and made a point of telling us how much us a JW;s were hated by them.

    Yeah, guys, don't forget all us born again nuts who used to be JW nuts! We don't hate them at all, though some of us can't say much of anything good about their leadership!
