I agree with Sassy, if you're just lurking, post. I lurked for about three weeks before I started posting. You do get a lot more out of the board once you start posting. Welcome to everyone new!

Armageddon to come next March
by Sassy ini was told by one of my sons tonight when i called to check on them that their uncle (who is still a jw, they are not) had been studying the prophecies and has figured out that armegeddon is going to come next march.
of course i laughed when he said that.. and he told me no really, his uncle has even been in touch with the governing body and they agreed with his findings.. .
now don't get me wrong, this man is very intelligent and i can see him coming up with some reasoning that may sound intelligent, but come on.... what i got the biggest kick out of it, was that he thought the gb was going to take him serious.. first off, i am sure they don't take serious anything someone nobody says to them.. and second of all, this man has been dfd for yrs and only back in recently.. .

Awesome! I always wanted a front row seat to watch Armageddon. Maybe God can announce it in advance and sell the broadcasting rights to NBC or the BBC -- imagine how much commericals would cost. It'd put Superbowl prices to shame.
BTW do you suppose God would give Geraldo an exclusive interview upon his second coming? Man that'd irk Dan Rather!

Oh yeah Lyin Eyes, these aren't your father's zombies, these are swift, agile, scary flesh eaters. The original Dawn of the Dead, made back in 1978 had some really bad acting, all the zombies were just painted green and the special effects, although often hilarious in their stupidity, were quite gory. I'm hoping this movie isn't too gory and that if focus more on the societal impact of the dead rising from the grave -- which I think would be fascinating.

Victory for Terrorism
by Yerusalyim inthe terrorists won a great victory in spain.
mind you, i'm all for the democratic process...it's great...and had the spanish decided to part ways with the us of it's own volition, great!...however, the socialists were project to not win a majority in this weekends election...that is until the terrorist attack.
now, with the socialist coming into power...and the promise to both withdraw the 1300 spanish soldiers from iraq and to part ways with the us on foriegn policy we can look for more such attacks in other countries.

Because Blacksheep we financed what they did! We also allowed it to happen. We could have pushed an amendment through the U.N. to get U.N. troops sent into there back in 1999, or 2000, or 2001 in order to establish a democracy, apprehend Osama Bin Laden and stop the genocide of the taliban. Instead, Bill Clinton and George Bush did nothing. It was only when we were attacked that we decided to go flatten Afghanistan.
And if you think that $124 million figure is made up, go back to page five, I think. There's a link in one of my post to a CNN news story that pre-dated 9/11 and documented how the money was given to the taliban.
I'm glad the taliban are out of power in Afghanistan. They're an example of fundamentalism at it's worst.

Every President plays the religion card! Even Bill Clinton went to church every Sunday and often spoke of his faith in God.
Conservatives presidents aren't the only ones to do this. By all accounts Jimmy Carter, another democrat who served as president was very religious. IMO, God, isn't a conservative vs. liberal issue when it comes to the vast majority of politicians outward facades of faith.

Maria67, welcome to the forum. So many of us here, probably almost all of us, have felt the exact same things that you are now when we finally had our eyes opened to the lies of the WTS.
I agree with sixofnine, take your time. You don't have to rush out and do anything rash to alienate your family. There are a whole lot of faders here and I hope you get the support you'll need after leaving the organization.
About feeling like a hypocrite, don't. You were tricked by a treacherous organization that's fooled millions of other well-intended, honest, good-hearted people.

J.W. Building Collapses
by Kenneson inin cincinatti a three -story structure owned by a j.w.

Well the building looks dilapidated, just thank god there were no homeless people squating in it at the time or teenagers having a kegger.
As for the Society's monetary loss, this will probably work out nicely for them, saves them the price and zoning permits needed to demolish the building. And I'm sure it was insured.

Blacksheep, you're obvisouly not reading the posts very thoroughly or you would have seen that I've already answered your supposed question:
Your question: "Which was...why do you think the terrorists brutalized and enslaved women? Did that have to do with US oppression? Please, think about it and answer the question"
Damn straight it did. We gave the taliban in Afghanistan 124.2 million USD in aide in 2001 alone! You're the one that needs to do some research!
My point to all of you, if I can express this as simply as possible is that we have to stop propping up middle-east dictators! (Because that's what's caused and continues to cause these terrorist groups to exist and operate.) Those middle east dictators being the Sa'ud family in Saudi Arabia, and the Emir in Kuwait, and the "President" of Pakistan.
And for your informations Yeru, Israel is not the only democracy in the region. Iran has been a democracy for nearly 30 years now, since they ousted the Shah. Qatar has also been a democracy since 1999.
And furthermore, thrill me with your acumen Yeru, how could the Nazis have used the same line of reasoning?

I was under the impression that the WTS didn't want their adherents to have or maintian websites claiming to represent or explain JWism.
In fact on the bottom of the WTS' own website they have this disclaimer: "This is the authoritative web site about the beliefs, teachings, and activities of Jehovah's Witnesses. The Watchtower Bible and Tract Society of New York, Inc. is a legal organization in use by Jehovah's Witnesses."
