Only if Jimy Hendrix was playing. Otherwise there would not be enough nice houses. It would be tent land and boy is it bloody cold.
That one was worth it.

They would all fit on the isle of Wight?

after the resurrection i mean.
the answer i was told is that the gb had calculated that all the people who have ever lived could all fit on to the isle of wight?!.

"Imitate Jehovah" CA Actually Didn't Have That Theme At All
by JW_Rogue injust got back from "imitate jehovah" ca and noticed that the theme was never really used at all.
all the talks were about family, preaching and getting along with others in the hall.
they didn't once go over an account of how jehovah acted in the past and how we should imitate that action.

Excuse me, but I think the title was "Imitate Christ". This has been a loose theme this year. It's not imitate jehovah. Did you truly attend? -

Have to agree with Heaven, lest we forget the most important things such as destructive doctrines. Anyone could have made that mistake.
The issues are about doctrine are they not.

OF DOGS AND BITES AND BIKES AND THINGS
by Terry inthe thought suddenly struck me plain and obvious: "these dogs won't stop until i'm good and bloody.".
there were two of them; a mixed breed of boxer and pit bull; clean, white--collared, tagged and--for some inexplicable reason, ferociously intent on tearing me to shreds!.
ah, but i'm getting ahead of myself.

Terry, I count that as very good writing too. It's hard to engage my interest at times, but your choice of sentance structure made me keep reading, wondering if there was some metaphor on the horizon. And so I read to the end. It was still a good story/event.
In the Australian out back, many dingoe's have bred with cattle dogs. The only language they understand is being savagely growled back at. There is an added element to that. You need to be prepared to kill it. I experienced this twice. It was so odd, so enlightening as to how close we still are to our basic nature. A great account. Thank you

Please change my username, Simon =)
by Divergent inhi simon, sorry to disturb, but i would appreciate it very much if you could kindly change my username for me - from just kidding to divergent.
i've decided to change my username because i'm not the same person i was when i first joined this site.
back then, a part of me still believed, and i thought that if my doubts were wrong and the religion actually turns out to be true and i posted negative stuff here... hey, i was only just kidding!!!.

Welcome to the forum Divergent. You had the guts to change your mind in public. Not bad not bad at all.

Found Nephew. Sisters incredible reaction.
by umbertoecho ini won't make this long.
i went out again and found him.
got in through the back door, pushed him to wake up, got him out, fed him, watered him and said he was family and i have a plan.. we talked all day, i let him do what he does, in order not to scare him about the future change that could happen for him.

Lets hope he gets well and becomes a healthy, happy, balanced and educated individual, free from cult guilt and fear
Sadly, this is not going to happen. She was horrifically cruel today and she called her son to warn him of my sinister motives. When I arrived to finish up some plans, it was as though I was Satan incarnate. I'm tired now and very sad. I won't talk about this again as i will really lose it. I just want to disappear, hide, and feel nothing

Emma died from an overdose. I tried to keep her safe from the age of thirteen to twenty-five. In the end, she died in the toilet of a railway station. Our last words were " I love you Emma, are you coming home now?" " I love you too mum, and I'm on my way, see you soon mum. I love you and we love each other:" She never made it home. I died the morning she died. -

Stock Up! The End Is Near!
by LevelThePlayingField inabout four paragraphs down in the article... source: http://www.westernjournalism.com/stock-up-the-end-is-near-or-so-say-mormons/.
cults quite commonly use made-up prophecy to bolster their membership.
for example, beginning around 1918, the watchtower bible and tract society today commonly known as jehovahs witnesses began teaching that the old testament saintsabraham, isaac, jacob and king david, etc.would all be returning from the dead in 1925!
