  JW dating sites and the number of divorced!

  by toladest in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was curious to see if i knew anyone that would post on a jw dating site so i checked out jw connections that is linked to on this page.

  i did not find anyone i know but i was kinda shocked to see the number of ones there that were "divorced, but free to marry".

  is this a big problem now or is it just that more divorced jw's use the web to find "mates".

  e-foot in mouth, does anyone else have this problem??

  hey guys don't know about you but i got through these periods where i seriously put my foot in it via email, forums, txt messages etc.

  in real life i'm quite diplomatic and have a knack for saying the right thing.

  the sort of thing i'm talking about is replying to all in an email, rather than just replying to sender, and disseminating a whole bunch of information to people you never intended it for.

  "What exactly is "ridiculous left coast politics"? "
  
  It's when actors dcide that the rest of us can't fathom the decisions of which candidate or politcal platoform to support without their enlightened viewpoints to guide us.
  
  STFU! I pay to see you portray a role in a movie! If I wanted your political opinions, I'd hire you as a consultant. Just take the damn Oscar & get the hell off the stage. And you'd better pray to God thatTom Selleck doesn't shoot your ass in your next movie!
  
  Beyond that? It's that amazing politics that gave us folks who put the snail darter & the kangaroo rat ahead of the needs of men, women and children. It's the politics that put Davis in office & established bans on charcol starter fluid & required catalytic converters on lawnmowers. It's the politics that gave us California, Oregon, and Washington: the "left coast".

  "And war broke out in heaven" - Why and how?

  by truthseeker in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i don't know if anyone has brought up the subject of "the war in heaven" before, but i have a few questions.

  maybe leolaia could help out with this one.

  revelation 12 talks about a war in heaven - now this is not just any war.

  "Any angles to these bizarre accounts in the Bible?" Jesus thought that Satan was stockpiling Weapons of Mass Destruction. And given that God had also fought against Satan just over a "Biblical" decade before but didn't quite finish the job (no doubt due to Gabriel's cousel about the lack of a clear political objective)? Jesus decided to invade, too, and finish the job.

  This stuff just happens.
  
  I suppose it's kinda like "I have penis and can therefore wear slacks the the Kingdumb Hall and so now I'm carrying a microphone or I'm working the magazine counter".
  
  I was an Akela at the meetings three years ago when my son was a Tiger Cub. And our den leader asked me to be on the pack committee. And then I learned that she needed a second BSA trained adult to help with the den when they became Wolf Cubs. And so I took the training. And now I'm the assistant cubmaster for the pack. Go figure.
  
  Thank God my son is a Webelo & will be moving on to Boy Scout if he's still interested in a few more months. I can then retire the uniform.

  "due to his recently learned so called knowledge of psychiatry and medication?? "
  
  Ummm ... that would be like boycotting 'The Hunt for Red October' because of Alec Baldwin's ridiculous left coast politics. If the movie is worth seeing, I'll watch & enjoy it. I don't care what asshole stars in the movie, just gimme a good tale.
  
  I enjoyed Cruise in Risky Business and Rain Man and A Few Good Men, although I thought he was kinda lame in Eyes Wide Shut and Mission Impossible and Days of Thunder.

  What does your name MEAN?

  1. jw
  2. friends

  we all are identified by our names here on jwd.

  some use their real names, and others pick a moniker that is their nickname or perhaps a few words from a song they like.. why did you pick your name?.

  for instance,.

  "To me all the recent garbage on the resurrection is just WT spin control on their own failed prophesies about the end of the world."
  
  Next, you'll be telling me that the Old Testament prophets did NOT actually come back in 1925. *LOL*
  
  Huntsville is a great town. I've been thru there a couple of times, and went to a DC in Tuscaloosa once ... maybe in the late 70s. If I was dragged to Alabama again for a DC? I'd detour to Mobile & head to the USS Alabama. There's a great battleship to tour, along with a WWII-era submarine & various planes & tanks & such things, including another SR-71 Blackbird the last time I was there.

  You have to admit some of the JW illustrations were kinda cool...

  by marked in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i almost used the word "art" in place of "illustrations" in the subject line.

  anyway, i always thought that wt illustrators were of a fairly high calibre.

  after the hideous 70s-ish gray-orange-green my book of bible stories era (and, yes, i know some of that had to do with printing tech at the time), some of the illustrations were (are) of quite high quality.. .
