oh your right....Jim was only hit once.
Man, I couldn't watch "the Dark Crystal" because of fears of demon possesion. What the hell were those muppets going to do to me? I don't even want to talk about not watching the smurf cartoon show.

The guy is a good actor. He was in "A thin red line" and "The Count of Monte Christo"
Let's hope he doesn't get accidentaly nailed to a cross.
It's weird though. Jesus getting hit by lightning. There's something just weird about it. 2wice too.
i have been thinking about that lately.
the last thread i started, william penwell wrote an excellent poem, which i enjoyed tremendously.. i have been writing poetry since i was 8 years old....i also write songs.. so how many of you are poets/and or song writers?
have any of you published your works and if so....any help on finding a publisher?.
Here's a poem I wrote about recovering from growing up a JW:
From depths of cold depravity
And sometimes hidden light
Comes a wind that blows so suddenly
As a warning to those who might
Hope to find it's resting place
In the souls for which it fights
And wish away its beautiful sadness
Into a world long since said it's goodnight
It's the power within The Everyman
The power that asks the question
"do I fear because I am afraid
or do I fear, because with this fear
I can silence those sounds that scare me
And wake from those dreams that show me
The path that has always truly laid before me"
Although I do not know my way through its darkness
It matters not
For from within it, all good things are born
And from this world without place. . .and without ending. . .
Can come the only. . .true beginnings

can someone find the link to the thread with the latest illustration of armageddon?
i need to take it to my children's psychologist.
Some sick shit. The one at the top is just depressing. The way the glasses are falling over the face of the dead girl. It's very realistic. What a nice god Jehovah is. Killing kids with glasses. I wouldn't even hit a kid with glasses, much less send a fireball up her ass.
Their are some sick puppies in the art department at Bethel.
I hope Will Smith doesn't die at Armageddon. At least Gregory Hines already died and will have a chance at Ressurection. Whew!
A couple of my black friends loved it.
When redneckopoly comes out (which is what the creator David Chang plans to do soon) I"ll be the first to buy that. Why? BECAUSE IT"S FUNNY SHIT.
Political Correctness is ruining our sense of humour and way of life. Quit being so sensitive.
horrible.
muslim women killed in the west.
in the middle east, muslim are women are killed for disobedience, becoming too ?westernized?
C'mon heathen, it's the 21st century. The Catholic church figured it had to change with the times, Islam should do as well. Atrocities have been commited by everyone, does that excuse the fact that Islam condones what it does? Especially considering the age we live in? It's time ISLAM got with the program don't you think? Haven't we as a human race progressed enough to AT LEAST not condone the killing of young girls raped by relatives. I mean, it's one thing if you agree with it, it's your right to kill any family members you want, but god forbid a religion actually sanctioning such a thing. That's just gross.
And again, i've never met a Catholic who'd slit his own daughters throat, and then be given the OK by church elders as if it were the will of GOD. I don't even think a JW elder could get away with that. This is the simple fact of Islamic culture. Sorry to say. We can dissect every religion and point out the atrocities commited, and all that winds up doing is showing us religion can be manipulated however man sees fit.
But I do think the rest of humanity (at least in the WEST) has progressed to the point where burning people at the stake and stoning people for adultery is now considered a little too harsh a punishment. I think Islam needs to catch up.
horrible.

Here's the deal ok?
Then nature of Islam itself leans itself towards this sort of behaviour, and the combination of this strict religion mixed with a mysoginist culture breeds this sort of thing. Trying to sugarcoat by saying "well Christians do it too blah blah blah" IS NOT a valid argument! How many times has a Catholic priest slit the throat of his own daughter because she was lying fully clothed on a bed talking to a man? It's probably happened, but IT IS NOT CONDONED BY THE CATHOLIC CHURCH. IT IS NOT CONDONED BY CHRISTIANITY.
Are you folks getting this? The difference between and honor killing in the WEST (If they ever happen) and an honor killing in a MUSLIM SOCIETY is in the MUSLIM SOCIETY it is CONDONED, ACCEPTED, EXPECTED, ALLOWED, ENCOURAGED.
And that my friends, is sick. And any attempt to explain it otherwise is not dealing with the reality of the situation. Do all muslims accept this? Probably not. I have met some nice muslims. But at the same time, their religion would allow for that sort of thing, especially if living in the Middle East. And that is gross, and there is nothing in Western society that equals this. People who get the death penalty, whether innocent or not, at least get a fair trial, and they get the death penalty not for talking to a stranger or because they were raped by a brother, but rather for a real crime, however innocent they might be. THERE IS NO COMPARISON.
As far as the Western world turning a blind eye to all of this, we don't. We get enough shit for trying to free the Iraqis from a murderous dictator, imagine what would happen if we tried freeing women from Islamic law. People would think we were imperialist for sure!

so..........have you ever played with one?
and if you have, what happened?
Many folks who have never had a supernatural experience or course would be skeptical. And the fact that Parker Brothers makes the board game for mass distribution makes it seem even more ridiculous that such a thing would work. Growing up a JW screwed up my sense of what was real and unreal when it came to the supernatural. But after years of de-dubbing i've gotten a better perspective on the supernatural.
I witnessed two girls in junior high bring a Quiji board to school. During lunch, they tried playing with it. I saw the pointer thing flip up and over by itself. It didn't spell out anything, it just flipped around on the ground whenever someone asked it a question. I was scared shitless. The rest of the kids were laughing.
I don't think the wind could've caused it, so I'm assuming something on a supernatural level was occuring. After years of hearing about smurfs invading kingdom halls and shit like that, I was probably more suceptable to such a line of reasoning than i would be otherwise. But still, as a 29 year old male looking back, nothing in the laws of physics as we know it would allow for such an event to happen on the everyday natural level.
Also, I tried meditating for a while. I got to the point where i would get into a real deep trance state. After a while, my hands started moving around by themselves and I could feel myself trying to say something. I thought i was being choked when all of the sudden i began chanting something. "Sah Man" "Sah Man".
I felt really sick aftewards. My girlfriend witnessed this and typed those words into a search engine. It turns out "Sah Man" means "Shamen" in Sanskrit. I don't speak Sanskrit.
I stopped meditating shortly after that. I have no intention of screwing around with the supernatural.

now, the war is over, the weapons were not used and of course have not been found.. how threatening could they be if they did not even use them when being invaded by a massive force (of the countries they hate)?!
perhaps, as many suspect, they didn't use them because they didn't have them?.
now we're being told that we'll have to be patient and give them time to find them.
HAS ANYBODY BEEN READING THE NEWS LATELY?
it seems as if they've been found.
