  Ozzie's Weekend Poll #13

  by ozziepost in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  yes, it's number 13 in a series of weekend polls designed to brighten your day on a lazy sunday afternoon!

  this weekend's poll topic invites us to do some market research!

  the question is prompted by the recently published findings of the national church life survey (australia) conducted in 2001. all church attenders were asked their highest educational qualification.

  Primary school 0%

  Secondary school 60%

  Trade certificate 35%

  Diploma or associate diploma 5%

  University degree 0%

  Post graduate degee or diploma 0%

  That is to the best of my knowledge. I was the only one going to college in my congregation, but I haven't finished yet, so the percentage reads 0%

  2. friends

  i hope you all can see this.

  let me know if it doesn't work.. i just had to share it with you since it fits the borg to a "t".. lonely, shunned, rejected sheep returns to be reinstated.

  shepherd thinking his true feelings but not revealing them until the sheep is lead to the slaughter.. .

  That image is so true, funny and sad at the same time. I am saving it.

  Ozzie, that bible quote, also so applicable.

  Okay, I am:

  Jasmine!

  You are one of the first Disney princesses to stand up for her rights as a woman. While you may NOT be a prize to be won, you are still quite the hottie, especially in that red harem girl outfit. Even when things may not seem the best at home, try to remember that running away from your problems solves little. You are easily tricked and manipulated, both by your enemies and people who love you. You have a special fondness for tigers.

  Only trouble would be that I have blue eyes and am a blonde.....

  Thanks Incense for the link. ( I was sound asleep while you where awake, timedifference )

  Believe it or not, but I am:

  Hot hot! I am Curry Flavoured.
  
  I have a spicy personality. If you can take the heat, you'll love me, if not, I'll probably make you cry. I am not for the faint-hearted.

  Yeah, I like this quiz.

  there are hundreds and hundreds of permitted extra-curricular activities for jw's to enjoy.

  activities that have nothing to do with religion or worship where jw's can really have a ball!.

  so, for all of you people who sometimes wonder if you should perhaps go back, lets all list the permitted fun things that any witness can do in his / her spare time.. i'll get the ball rolling:.

  This is one treat that I am definitely going to save. So that every time I am being told/asked/begged to come back to the congregation, I will remember just the impertinence of the GB telling people what kind of hobbys they should not keep. Funny, that as a drone, you really dont see just how ridiculous and ludicrous it all is. Thanks for reminding me.

  And another thing we were allowed to do, play scrabble.
