Quite what should be made of that is something that I shall ponder over for a while..
one of my interests is music and i play an acoustic guitar.. i wrote a poem about my guitar and thought i'd share it with you.
my poem doesn't match up to some of compound complex's work however, i'd really appreciate any feedback you can give.. my guitar my friend.
reaching for my old companion.
Back in the 70's, an old friend of mine attempted to teach me guitar. His name was Jon Isherwood. He took a number of ex's under his wing and introduced us to real debuchery and drunkeness. I really liked him.
He wrote a few songs, this was one of them. As usual, he's a bit drunk here too:
there is a lot of public scrutiny going on these days about the jw religion particularly on the inter - net.
one of the posed questions which gets debated and discussed quite often, are the jws false prophets instigated to preach a tainted commercialized gospel under the direction of the executive leaders of the watchtower corporation ?
these focused men who are responsible for creating the core doctrines of this organization.
This sounds all very feasible. But which individuals have the money?

can't believe it - gb is currently second in the medal table, with more golds and silvers combined than even china.
given the size of the nation it's an incredible achievement and we have won in some sports where other countries typically dominate.
i can't imagine we will stay in second but i am happy to enjoy the moment.. well done to the whole of team gb!.
we need this boost after our brexit fiasco
Fiasco??? A majority verdict is a fiasco???

sounds like first loser to me (shameless shots fired). You guys trail the U.S. by a grip. 69 to 38Well yeah. Pretty good considering we have around one-quarter of the population of you guys.
the biggest regret i have is of 'shunning' persons who were disfellowshipped and for 'marking' ones deemed as bad association.. there's no way i can approach these people to ask them for forgiveness as i've emigrated to another country however, by this post i'd like it to be known..
My biggest regret was staying pure with my Claudia Cardinale look-alike girlfriend..
what was the most fun ride you've ever had?.
my personal favorite was my ducati paso 750. it may have been before a few of your times, but it was an italian rocket that totally blew away anything from japan.. .
jk.
My first bike was a 1949 BSA A7. 500 twin, no rear suspension at all. Bought it in 1962.
all us creationists try to do is offer true evidence that the one and only god is out there watching and looking down on us.
we present that certain scientists know the truth about god and that he is everything that we see from trees, life, weather, the air we breath, and even the most simple molecules.
but of course you atheists reject it because it is your nature to not be humble and see god because you want to rule your own life.
Why is it that persons are branded as being full of hate when they simply find something not to their liking?
over the years here on this site i have found over half of the folks can hold their own with any minister.. why when we leave the borg we become proficient on any subject on the bible.. why did we go down that road?
my intention was to get close to jehovah (searching the bible), but i. guess i found lucifer.
i'am ask all the time, how did you go from a true believer to calling the bible a book.
I haven't, nor ever had, a religious bone in my body. As a kid, before my parents conversion to JW-ism, I resisted all attempts to make me sing in a choir or go to Sunday school.
Once my parents were converted, I was subjected to endless hours of witness interpretation of Scripture. But it was all in my head, never in my heart.
The one upside to all this is that I do really well at quizes whenever the questions become Biblical.
That's about it.
