Not Many Brits Know That America Declared War On Us..

by Englishman in

according to this article, the end of this particular war was the start of a strong bond, now known as a special relationship between our 2 countries.

http://www.napoleonguide.com/campaign_1812.htm.

and, ever since that date, the special relationship between britain and the usa has been totally fair and balanced with both countries giving and receiving in exactly equal amounts.. .

I really think that this is some of the only evidence that god exist... can you imagine if the US had waited three or four more years to enter the war? Both the US and Germany would have had the bomb maybe even Russia... no way Germany is waiting for the US to build up a landing force in england so he nukes it off the face of the earth with his V series rockets (4 addtional years of research would have made them really accurate) The US while behind on rockets can fly around the atlantic to the north and bomb germany back... Russia cuts loose at everyone... germany starts shooting upgraded V-25 rockets acoss the atlantic... submarines carry nukes right into the rivers and harbors of every country involved...

scary stuff...

The Tsunami: A Time For New Architechture?

by Valis in

you know after the tsunami, i started thinking about discussions and ideas our good friend jim_tx talks about sometimes.

maybe some of the architechtural damage could have been avoided by stuff that "went w/the flow" as it were.

i was imagining islands covered w/domes instead of hut like or even regular style asian buildings.

mkr32208

I love domes I tried for years to convince the wife to build one... no go to ugly...

On an aside I'm sure that any of the people who lived in these countries and died in this tragic tsunami would have been more than glad to trade their tar paper and shit houses for a $50k dome... Why does no one care about the horror of these people's lives until they are dead?

"Your Reports HAVE To Be Turned In By The 6th of the Month!"

do you miss not getting that phonecall or that announcement?

mkr32208

I was sort of amazed that no one ever called me on making up my time...I mean I said 10-12 hrs a month every month for about 5 years and went out about 3 times total during the entire 5 years... No bells ever went off (ie this guy never meets with the group) or maybe they just don't give a $hit... that seems more likely!

What if World War One never happened?

reading all these 1914 threads lately has made me think a lot more about my own feelings of the jw movement in the early years.

particularly how i feel they got kind of "lucky" that something big happened on whatever numbered prediction 1914 was for them.. we have all seen individuals ride out the rest of their sports, acting, etc.

careers on one big break.

I'm with you on that lifesagarden! My wife is still claiming to be a dub (she's hanging on by one fingernail) but I'm steadily whacking at it! She still claims however that she won't take blood to save her life... ok so if that comes up I've already destroyed her blood card and all that other new crap! She thinks its filed hee hee hee hopefully the time will never come but if it does she's taking the blood!

JW DF'd for Eating Candy Cane

jehovah's witness accidentally eats candy cane .

above: kimberly flemmel mourns her excommunication from the jehovah's witness congregation after eating a candy cane .

mkr32208

The only thing that would have made this any better would have been if they had thrown in

"the local elders offered to let her buy her way out of the trouble but on top of being a candy cane fiend she's also dirt broke... these two things conspired to make her excommunication a forgone conclusion!"

we had a phone call yesterday, after being "inactive" for 6 years.

not having attended a meeting in 4 years, we get a call saying they are concerned that they had heard we believe in evolution.

my partner said "not necesarily believe in it, im just not discounting it at this time.

mkr32208

It's just so stupid to think someone would call you up and ask what you believe and then DF you.

yeah and they would never dream of doing something stupid...

3 year old nephew has "bad dreams about Jehovah punishing him"

by mkr32208 in

we watched my 3 year old nephew today.

the wife and i took him and my two daughters (1 and 3) too the zoo.

while we were driving home he was talking to my daughter in the back seat and started telling her about this "bad dream" that jehovah was punishing him "like david" my wife (dubber) was trying really hard to get him to stop relating this story (i've told her the kids will not be raised at witlesses!

mkr32208

If its the same "warning examples for our day" that I have, its not a cartoon about David and Noah. It is a drama centered on when the Israelites were poised to enter the land of Canaan under Joshua and fell into sin. It carries a strong message about obedience without question.

It wasn't "warning examples for our day" That was the last one I watched and it was scary stuff! That old freak funeral home director narrating it... what a twisted old asshole (sorry simon) The one he had was a new one we didn't watch it but I think it was a cartoon... not sure but he was really really scared of it! I've managed to just about get my wife out she hardly goes to meetings hasn't been out in service in 6 months and has agreed to read CoC... BUT SHE'S NOT LEAVING THE ORGANIZATION AND I BETTER NOT ASK HER TO CHOSE BETWEEN ME AND GOD... hee hee hee mark of the ~slowly cutting the roots of this cancer class~

W.T. will use Tsunami disaster to "prove" end is coming soon.

by hubert in

i believe that the watchtower society will use the tsunami disaster to "pump up" the fear factor for armaghedon coming soon.

what better way to keep the flock moving in a positive direction?

they know book sales are down, and so is recruitment.

I was at a hospital this morning for a test my daughter had to take. I found a Watchtower and Awake magazine on one of the waiting room tables and quickly picked them to keep others safe.

I always page through and pt in a bit of judicial editing about lies child abuse 1914 etc... and end with the link to this page... ha!

Did anyone became abusive/violent at the doors?

by badboy in

jw
friends

did you have experiences like that?

mkr32208

Ha I know a witness that met an "apostate" in service and became so enraged that he couldn't answer and was getting "mentally beat" that he attacked the guy... Then he found out what it was like to get "physically beat!"

Several years later brother freakjob left the truth and became an apostate... So maybe you really can beat some since into the JW's at your door? He was pretty f*cked up though (mentally AND physically...) Maybe he's brownboy?

THE AWESOME POWER OF GOD

jehovah is able to humble any man, no matter how strong or powerful he thinks he is..........in a microsecond.

Brownhole the profit... I mean prophet! I think I read your book that failed to be cannonized it was called sodomisicus or some such right? So when this new date comes and goes what then?

Will you ever see the new light and get off the special sauce? For as Jesus saith "Brown hole can not live on sauce alone, but requires a little crack from time to time!" Jebutasicus 8:25

Your interpetation of scripture never fails to amaze me you are truly "blessed among wino's..." Crackupyerass 1:14
