No the modern one is lightyears better "the duke" who couldnt' act his way out of a paper bag was never able to debase himself to the extent that jeff bridges manages without even trying. The remake is much MUCH better than the original.

Bill is the best of a bad lot, not that it's much of a compliment like saying you're the smartest kid with downs syndrome. Not exactly a compliment. Now Bill is very smart, hell all of those talking heads on both sides are smart thats how they stay on top. The dumb people never GET to that point. Even the crazy ones like Glenn Beck are SMART (crazy as a bed bug but they ARE smart)
What boggles my mind is that amazing can say something so stupid as "atheism is faith" and people just ignore it. It's not faith to say 'there is no evidence for fairies therefore I do not believe in them" that is in fact the exact OPPISITE of faith.

Are Faith and Reason Compatible? Jan Awake
by DanaBug inhere's some quotes from that article:.
the bible says, for example, that if your worship is to be acceptable to god, it must be a sacred service with your power of reason.
in other words, you must worship god in a way that is worthy of thinking beings.

The skeptic is a fool, why not simply say "there is no evidence."
Has nothing to do with morals or anything else it's just why do you believe in nonsense?

It's all fluff and feel good nonsense. That is why they have to use technology to attempt to find things the actual PEOPLE are idiots. There is a reporter who does this stuff all the time I don't know his blog but I have read it before all the crazy stuff he does and has no problems. He used two part epoxy to make a friggin' Rambo knife in the bathroom on the far side of the security check point in the last post he made I read. He just had a mold came through security with it then mixed the epoxy and MADE a knife in the bathroom sharpened it and everything then got on the plane with it. And it wasn't like a jack knife it was like some sort of giant Rambo/ninja thing. Hilarious, feel good idiot nonsense is all TSA is.

December 15th WT gives example of sister who quit her job so she could go to an convention.
by life is to short ini was beyond mad when i heard this.
it is on page 30 of the wt.. it says "a pioneer named roxana is one who has seen how jehovah provides for his people.
when she asked her employer for permission to take some days off to attend one of our conventions, he angrily retorted that if she went, he would fire her.

The REAL problem is this: If every JW took this type of thing to heart, quit their lousy jobs (or good ones) and became Pioneers, the Organization would have no money!!!
So why do they do this sh*t? It's because they want to make people at least feel guilty so as to "do more" in other ways and be enslaved to the Organization and its ideals.
This is clearly made up, no sane person would do this and/or even REALLY believe this stupid story. However the lunatic fringe of the witnesses LOVES this type of nonsense. So sister crazy who is more than likely going to be fired from her job anyway for being an insane fanatic who won't shut up about jehogie and witnessing at customers, well she quits HER job and yeah maybe she does manage to find another job I mean yes most people eventually DO find another job of some sort SHE becomes a huge cheerleader for the witness belief system. By telling these stories they are talking directly to the crazy people in the borg, these stories go in one ear and out the other of your average person but they fester in the minds of the insane.
You have to look at who the target audience is for this type of thing and WHY they are saying what they are saying.

Got a letter inviting me to my Judicial hearing- should I go?
by hoggieman inhey everyone, my family and i have not gone to meeting in over a year.

I got out of being df'ed by denying I was ever baptized. I did it as a laugh but you know what, it worked, it pissed them OFF too which was a plus!
I mean they were FURIOUS calling everyone in the world trying to get two witnesses that I was baptized, but if you didn't get baptized locally it's hard to really prove. I mean you didn't sign anything when you got dipped! Plus who really remembers after 10 or 15 years?

Hahaha pwnd...
Lets break, break break break it down!
And God spoke all these words, saying: “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
- You shall have no other gods before me.
I think this has been pretty clearly amended. I mean look at the jewish god that the jewish god they are NOT the same so clearly the very definition of WHO god is has been amended.
- You shall not make for yourself any carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate me, but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.
Well clearly that was amended and I think he should have pounded this one a little harder.
- You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in vain.
How many times a day do you here god damn or similar or JESUS christ. Nobody cares, clearly that has been amended.
- Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your manservant, nor your maidservant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.
Haha no no I don't think so thats a pile of nonsense and nobody does that crap amended.
- Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the Lord your God is giving you.
I agree with this one (this is the first one I DO agree with) but it's clearly been amended in the 'hearts and minds' of christians we get old people dumped on our hospital porch on a daily basis.
- You shall not murder.
- You shall not commit adultery.
Why not? If everyone involved is a consenting adult? Swinging is awesome!
- You shall not steal.
- You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
- You shall not covet your neighbor’s house; you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor’s.”
Why not? Desire drives the economy and the world if you didn't want your neighbor shit why go to work make money etc?
Stupid list, god got 3 out of 10 nice going god. Lol thats about what I expect from a buncha sheep herders making up crap in the desert though.
