i regularly watch family feud.. homeland is a great show i watch every week, when it's in season.. metv has so many great programs---from taxi to the twilight zone.. what do you like watching?

Gravity falls is a cartoon. It's like a mix between a mystery novel and a comedy. Some stuff is sort of supernatural so before I was mentally out I was hesitant to watch it.
I'll admit it probably isn't for everyone. There are a few too many random jokes in the first few episodes but imo the story behind it is really interesting

South Park and Gravity Falls are my all time favourite shows. And Gravity falls hasn't even started season 2 yet
..specifically, the suffering of animals.
you can talk about free will/sin/people choosing to not listen to god etc to explain human suffering being allowed.. but how can you love a god that allows animals, that haven't sinned or chosen to not have anything to do with god, to have their short lives ended in often long, drawn out, painful ways.
i could list stories i've read that would probably make you feel ill, but i'm not looking to shock anyone or start an emotional debate.
How does a perfect human get deceived in the first place? And what about the eyes being "opened" after they ate the fruit? Did god create humans without the ability to think for themselves?
These are some of the things that made me sure that the story of Adam and Eve is just that. A story.
Off topic but I have this theory that originally the story of Adam and Eve was about where our sexual desires or something came from. Like this is what the eyes being opened was about and that's why they realised that they were naked after they ate it. (Also why they didn't have any children before eating the fruit) After this they had sex, god deemed them unclean/imperfect and banished them from the garden and stopped them having eternal life as punishment.
Men dominating their wives in ancient Israel could come from the whole "Eve being made FOR Adam" idea of the story and the fact that she gave Adam the fruit is sort of like the evil harlots that tempt men for fun you read about in the bible
been on this site 8 months now, but not on a daily basis.
recently discoverd a poster named processor, loved his tread on the life of jesus.
anyway the guys posts never seem to make long threads.
I've always thought that emeth has som... Ok even as a joke I can't bring myself to say it
so we had our elders meeting to discuss the 3/29 lboe...it was was many of you expressed.
below are some of the quotes from the elders:.
"we just need to keep the focus on jehovah's work, remind the friends of this".
Do jws really call each other the "friends" over there?
did you notice all the i- pads?!
sorry, to bring up the memorial again, but i was too busy to post sooner.
it's only been about 8 months since i stopped attending and when i left only a handful (2-3 people) used their ipads at the kh.
I used an iPad sometimes when I was still going because my mum didnt like how obvious it was that I wasn't paying attention and I could also read a book or something during the meeting.
This one couple were the first to start using them in our hall. It wasn't until the CO mentioned something about it that people knew whether or not it was ok.
hey all,.
as we know there have been some strange new quotes over the last few recent years...such as the classic:.
"we may be asked to do whatever, even if it doesnt appear sound from a human standpoint etc..." (words to that effect).
Since when do "Jehovah's organisation" and "life-saving direction" even belong in the same sentence?
yesterday, on the thread i started on 4/15/14, http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/jw/friends/279088/1/essay-by-barbara-anderson-whats-in-a-name#.u1e98jao7l9 that introduces a recent article i wrote which is posted on www.watchtowerdocuments.org , i thought i made an inaccurate statement in one of my posts about wt having a sign, jw.org, on the top of one of their buildings.
i was sure i had seen a photo of such a sign but couldn't prove it until last night when proof was sent to me in an email and the proof is to be found in the form of links to photos of the sign.
i was wrong in thinking the sign was on a wt factory building.
Shadow is that what they call delusions of grandeur?
besides a cult, everyone knows the watchtower is a business disguised as a religion.
from a business viewpoint, i would certainly hate or lobby against those who dislike my product and warn other people of my product.. i made a calculation based on information from jwfacts, and the results are just astounding!.

How many years until the first pioneering themed video gamed/app? I'm willing to put money on in the next 3 years. There's already a ministry themed board game that my mum tried to get me to play with her that was terrible (obviously)
