reading through some of the posts re the mcveigh debate, it's obvious that there is a huge divide between the usa and europe over many issues, in particular with reference to the way that society should deal with deviants.. i think that there is a lot of other cultural differences between our societies, and i'm just wondering if this is why the wtbts has had a far higher "conversion factor" in the usa than in europe.. some of the phraseology contained in the watchtower magazines is incomprehensible to europeans.

i remember that words that are in common usage now, were, when first used in the wt, totally baffling.. the expression "no way" wasn't in common use until years after the wt featured it, like wise with "points up", also "right on" meant nothing to anyone.

indeed, many return visits to placed magazine householders resulted in them asking a bewildered dub for an explanation of these then strange terms.

Since I'm an American asshole, let me bring out the point that you posters from Europe, Asia and Australia would all be speaking a dialect of German, Japanese or Russian if many worthless American's had not given their lives to help defend your lands.

(bajarama steps down from his card board soap box and exits the stage, wondering how much longer lazy, selfish Americans can play the, we saved the world "card")

Welcome Celtic, you sound like an interesting fellow. I look forward to reading more of your posts.

I know it's not the most manly thing to suggest, but when I'm four sheets to the wind I sit on the toilet, I've found it to be better then pissing all over myself. Try it, I hope it works as well for you as it does for me.

The Horse's Ass Award for May 2001

in every news group, discussion board and chat room there seems to be a few individuals that never seem to completely grasp the art of thinking.

their need to disrupt and irritate reach superstar status in the realm of stupidity.

the desire for attention and recognition though sophomoric post's and chat room spamming becomes as much a part of the entire internet experience as the valuable and useful contributions of others.

Way to go Fred, we're all so very, very proud of you! This is like the Nobel Prize, for dip shits.

Hey seven006 who else was nominated for this grand honor? I imagine there's some stiff competition out there for this award.

Governing Body=Jehovah???

a pioneer sister from the local congregation mentioned to me in an email that she is behind in her hours this month.

i emailed her back and told her not to worry about those hours, that god reads hearts not time slips.

this was her response, and it made me very sad.. i love being busy.

70 hours a month, what ever happened to, "all the more as the day draws near". Must not be so near!

I remember a pioneer sister telling me that when you become a pioneer that jehovah gives you a deep feeling of complete j.o.y. (jehovah over you). God must of had a total recall on the whole joy thing.

I pioneered to get attention and respect from other witnesses. I also felt like jehovah couldn't ask for anything more from me, I thought I was doing my all, and I would make it, if the end came. He couldn't kill me, I'm a pioneer. The whole pioneer thing is bullshit, and anybody who has pioneered, knows that.

It's much easier to screw off for 70 hours, than it is to screw off for 90 hours.

Has anyone felt like leaving God altogether?

i know that the answer is yes, but it would help me to hear your sentiments on this.

.

after you decided that the wbts, and thus jw's were not god's chosen earthly organization did you feel like you wanted to leave and forget god altogether?.

bajarama

Questions I would like to ask God? Why? How could you? Have you ever sought professional help? Are you still on the medication the doctor prescribed? Did you know that prozac now comes in a suppository form? Did the shock therapy help? God, I want you to know I'm always here listen if you need to talk.

What a wicked game you play.

i have a question to all those who believe in a christian god, or any others who would like to comment on the subject.

if god is perfect, and can not make a error, why are there comets, asteroids and meteors flying about the solar system impacting both the earth and other planets?

it doesn't make sense to me how a perfect creator could allow this chaos to exist.

I don't see how man's so called "sin" could be to blame for this since it only affected the earth, not the universe.

Maybe he, who made us in his "image", is just as flawed as any human?
