No not all men do. I think that if you don't cheat on your spouse, it just means you have a level of integrity to yourself and those you love. There is also the concept of an open relationship, I'm not in one nor do I want to be. From what I've seen, most people are not mature enough to be in an open relationship without causing problems for their primary relationship. I do view that as different though than cheating on your spouse. If I knew someone was cheating on their spouse, I'd be inclined to not trust them as a friend or business assoc.

How many Fundamentalists study other beliefs?
by blueviceroy indo dyed in the wool believers ever look beyond the borders of what they are taught?.
how many people go to the grave having been exposed to only one school of thought?.
that is the real crime , ignorance and lack of choice, not any particular belief..

Or study a straw man version, remember that book the WTS had a few years ago that presented other faiths? Even at that time I knew that was kinda a lame joke...and I STILL couldn't get on my own.

100 foreskins for your daughter
by Zep inthought dating and marriage was tough in the year 2000...well just check out what david had to go through.. david wants to marry michal, sauls daughter.so whats he have to do?.
samuel 18:25-28. at that saul said: "this is what you men will say to david, "the king has delight, not in marriage money, but in a hundred foreskins of the philistines".
so david rose and struck down among the philistines two hundred men, and came bringing their foreskins and giving them in full number to the king to form a marriage alliance with the king.. lol

If some nutball did that today, we'd think he was a wack serial killer right? Thinking, Jeffrey Dahmer or that crazy clown guy that liked little boys, Gasey?
Yuck!

Accidentally Hit Animals with Cars ? A Problem in Rural areas-Experiences?
by flipper inso, hello folks.
i have wanted to start this thread for sometime because i was curious if it has happened to any of you often.
in the last 10 years or so it seemed that deer were attracted to my trucks like magnets .

I've hit possum, raccoon, and skunk. Close to hitting deer, but lucked out. I've hit flying birds a few times, once a cardinal, I was very sad.
I think when it comes to animals on the road, already taking the precautions of going slower and paying attention, when they get in the way there is little you can do. You can swerve and try to miss, but then you become a road hazard. I've missed my deer by deliberatly staying the course, becoming if you will "the instrument of natural selection". If I'd hit it, I'd have felt sad at first, and then "Damn, wish a game warden were around so I could get a tag." (Hate to waste good venison.)

Saywhat29, can I get a BBP and still be white?
What I would change? I'd change my chronic muscle pain and weakness for the muscles of a normal average 30 something guy. I want my lazer sharp memory and thinking ability back. I want my 20 something metabolism back so I don't look so "mature and filled out". Perhaps the best thing would be contentment and accepting how I am.

hardest conversation of my life
by metaspy inmoments ago, i talked to my mom.. i told her that i was taking some time off from going to meetings and service.. the conversation went down hill from there.. as her usual she just dismissed my reasons as if they meant nothing.. i pointed to the child molestations as my main reason for leaving.. "you are being over-sensitive", "jehovah takes care of things in his own time", "rely on jehovah".
those were the catch phrases of the conversation.. a new one was: "what have you been reading?".
i have a hard time standing up to my mother.

You've made it this far, so you must have some vertebrae.
Good advice all around, but I want to focus on what Jgnat and a few others said along the line of disconecting your input from their output. Lady Lee also recomended a few years ago another book called Emotional Blackmail. Very good read, practical and applicable. I also found a book that was geared mainly towards physical abuse and violence, but the ideas were also IMO very useful for emotional manipulation and abuse, I needed that sort of info at one time as my mother was manipulative and just OMG. That book is called Never Be a Victim, that might be slightly wrong, but I can find it if you want the tittle, and its a short read too.
You could whatch Fight Club, Tyler Durden has a few gems. "This conversation...is OVER."
My own ma did this too: When I first started confronting her or not conecting with her manipulation, she went instantly from boo-hoo to Ggggrrrrrrr with eyes flashing and shit, when I rode that out, she finially let out a sigh and pouted. Through all of that, I had to be very resolute and almost cold. It has left scars on our relationship today, she doesn't see them, as the scars are on my end so to speak. Now we get along, but if she tries to even build up to her old tricks I let her know right away that "No. That's not how it works."
Good luck.

Yes, but they've made their move. "Only a dozen...blah blah" When people find out the incidences of abuse number in the THOUSANDS the Jw/Borg will just loose more of their credibility--not that they have a great deal, waka waka.
