  When the "gun-slinger" strolls into the bar, all the girls heads turn

  The "nice guy" sits in the corner reading Plato's republic.

  Uh... there isn't a shred of evidence that a worldwide flood ever happened. *hello, McFly*

  Spose it depends what you want - many ancient folk tales, or hard concrete evidence

  It is still a possibility.

  Rather than have to travel physically to a destination, instead displace time & space and appear where I choose.

  I could then travel to any place on this wonderful planet in a moment.

  (apparently this is theoretically possible and is currently being puzzled over behind closed doors )

  In our case, it was respectivefully asking questions such as - United Nations involvement and failed prophecies. We never rec'd a reply from either the London Bethel or the Elders in the congregation who promised they would look into the matters raised. We eventually told them that we no longer wished to be know as JWs, (as they would not answer any of our questions) within a short period of time - they sent us a letter signed by three elders. Now everyone shuns us. We only asked questions!!!!!!. By the way, we had been JWs for over thirty years (each 0f us)

  It just shows how they can't deal with an open enquiry.

  All that time spent through your life and then they let you down in this way - typical bunch of control freaks.

  i was looking through the newest wt just to see what "new light" there is now.

  i came across the questions from readers, and i was amazed by what i read.

  from the may 15, 2005 wt, the question was "why were david and bath-sheba not put to death for committing adultery, whereas their newborn son died?

  Daniel CH4 V35

  That scripture sums up Yahweh's attitude in the OT towards humans.

  The odd thing is Jesus taught that even a humble sparrow was worthy of Gods attention.

  All very odd.

  WOULD YOU........................?

  by Terry in

  2. beliefs

  here is a serious question for you to contemplate and answer.. if, near the natural end of your present life you could receive a drug that induced within your brain a state of mind most closely resembling one long orgasmic "experience" (but, which would prove fatal within 24 hours) would you.........?.

  1.refuse and accept whatever pain or misery naturally happened according to chance.. 2.accept and go out with a cosmic virtual "bang"?.

  of course, tell us why you have chosen the way you have chosen.. part two.

  9/11 Attacks-- No planes say conspiracy theorists

  2. friends

  ianone and others have been spreading their propaganda on this forum and elsewhere on the internet for quite some time that it was not commercial airliners but smaller planes, rockets, or detonations that brought down the world trade center and hit the pentagon.

  but zacarias moussaoui disagrees with them.

  I called you fascist as a kind of twisted joke - dont take it to heart.

  You stomped all over Zens feelings, like the Germans jack-booting into Poland. Thus, the quip.

  The Plane Bits

  I think it is obvious that planes were used - there are questions beyond that joke that have not been addressed by the authorities.

  But, can't be arsed with this thread, so must not continue... must not contribute... must not

  Abaddon - hehe... I knew you'd show up

  What gets me is people doing this are basically calling hundreds of people liars (the bereaved and the eye-witnesses),

  Thats a tad emotive old boy and a complete lie! I think the people opposed to the official story are attacking the top end, not the poor sods who suffered at ground level.

  Well, I've seen enough information and have doubts concerning both sides. I'm not claiming to know 100% what is going on out there.

  Trust is the issue, for sure, and I don't trust the war mongers and bastards that rule over us.

  As for, out of one cult into another? That is just plain rude

  Good to see you on the thread btw.
