  i was with my mom today shopping and she is still in the organization.

  she is elderly so she doesn't do as much as she used to.

  we went to the store and she purchased a calendar and on the way out she said that she finally got a calendar for this year.

  CLAM MEETING Dumbing down

  by freddo in

  2. friends

  so yesterday was the midweek meeting - the first of the month for december so instead of locals doing the little talk skits we get the on screen shadow puppets.. after each one the ms taking the item asks the congregation for "positive" comments.. part way through i get a text from a pimo brother enduring the show which reads thus (and i quote word for word ...).

  "it's like listening to a bunch of people from a mental institution.

  ".

  The wife's CLAM meeting was yesterday. She didn't tell me about the screen shadow puppet shows. However, she did tell me about someone being announced as reproved.

  It's funny, a couple of days ago she was talking about how it has been awhile since she's been in service and how much fun it was and that she misses it. Then she presents the idea that I would be a good person she can practice her presentations with with me being the householder.

  Like a hungry large mouthed bass, I contemplated that bait, however, I didn't bite.

  I guess the look I gave her reminded her that that would not be a very good idea.

  If mathematics teacher made a mistake, would it mean mathematics itself is wrong!

  by venus in

  many people point to the irrationality in the depiction of god by the religions and their scriptures, hence jump into the bottomless pit of atheism.

  in either camp, god is not a factor because religion is only a means that misrepresents god, hence religionists themselves are atheists (literally, those who live without god).

  it is like saying there exists no earth because you found out your friend who taught earth is flat is wrong; or it is like saying mathematics itself is wrong because you found out your mathematics teacher made a mistake.

  just had a jw freak out over some magic 8 balls that i have.

  next thing you know i turn my head and it was thrown into a box to get rid of it.

  is it because it has the word magic in it?

  I had two of those growing up. Don't remember whatever happened to either of them. That was a long time before I fell for being a dub.

  Wow.....

  It took only four posts for a local gun nut to come out with a full-throat defense of the values and virtues of gun ownership with wholly nonacknowledgement of 50 dead and 400 wounded.

  That has got to be a record.
