at it again just as they did with iraq.. no doubt this report was preparation to have something to quote when trying to drum up support for a war.. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/5346524.stm.

In this age nucular weapons are a liability because if Iran does get to shoot one off there will be twenty going for Iran. They need to stop this loonicy or there wont be an Iranian to negotiate the surrender. I have a muslim friend and he also said Islamic countries should get nucelar weapons to take on the world and eliminate all non muslim people and that was before 9/11.
A non nucular war with Iran is far more humane to both sides. I dont beleive savages can be trusted.
just got this e-mail in case there are any r/c-model buffs out there.. .

muslims daily, in the arab world, call for the death to christians and the americans.
even looking at some muslim websites, you will see jesus shown to be evil and the christian faith to be a terrible group of people.
so with this, why does minor comments on them and cartoons about their founder make them so extreme?
I had a Muslim friend a nice bloke liked by most people he met. This was before 9/11 he sometimes would go off about fighting for God and slaughtering non beleivers.one night he said Iran and other Muslim countries should get nucular weapons and take on the west. It didnt matter that islamic countries would be bombed only that he would be doing right by fighting for God. I went home that night and couldnt sleep and as I said above this was before 9/11.
as a jw we believed he was in power after 1914 .
do other religions believe he rules or will rule "invisibly"?.
and if he is in power, what do you think of his job performance so far?.
I think the invisible presence came from the second Adventists.
Adventists beleive that Christ has been present in the form of the Holy Spirit since the cross. Adventrists also beleive that Jesus will come in the clouds visible to everyone in the future.
Adventists also beleive in 1844 it was the beginning of the investigative judgement before the second comming to see who is worthy to be ressurected and taken to heaven. Other churches dont beleive the investigative judgement doctrine and this doctrine and within the SDAs the doctrine is often in dispute. Many of the hardliners beleive it but the theologins and more informed members dont. Im one who dosent beleive the investigateve doctrine. Barry
my daughter has been 'going out' with a black gentleman for the last year.
they are very much in love by the looks of things and have long term plans.. however, opposition has recently come from somewhere i did not expect.
it turns out that he has been very upset with his mother since she made several unpleasant remarks to him.
There is no racism in Australia we love white people here. Tell youre daughter to come here.
after reading mary's post on crosses.
i got to thinking.......... how do people feel about wearing crosses as a memorial or remembrance of what jesus went through for us?.
does anyone remember witnesses using this explanation as to why they don't wear crosses or hang them in their home?
A scriptual answer is found in the bible. Galatians 6.14 May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ through which the world has been crucified to me and I to the world, Also
Philippians 3.18 For ,as /I have often told you before and now say again even with tears, many live as enemies of the cross of Christ their destiny is destruction
i've been attending an independent church were the women wave flags, play realy loud live music, speak in tongues (not me) and alot of other thingsi never saw in kh.
it realy feels weird, but have closer friendships than in kh.
Its not a language itis just like sylibles put together or sort of like baby talk. Thats just my opinion hope i dont offend anyone. Ive heard it a number of times Ive even had people lay hands on me and speak in tongues to try to get me to do it but it never worked guess Im just not like them.

Arthur Ive heard that story about people speaking in tongues in SDA circles beleive it or not. That was a while back though.
Since that time SDAs have had joint meatings with tongue speakers and many SDAs around the world go to penticostal meatings for the experiance. I remember in Tumut NSW when the penticostals opened their new church they invited the SDA church members to come to the opening. I went with many other SDA church members and some of the more conservative SDAs thought the devil would jump out and get them when a penticostal started up speaking in tongues. I could see it on there faces. The bloke started speaking in tongues was waiving his arms in the air and swinging backward on his chair as he spoke.
everyone has a story about what they were doing and the emotions that followed after the twin towers were hit...what is your story?
?
I was right here on JWD in chat when they told me to turn on the TV set. I couldnt stop shaking for hours and thought there might even be terrorists in planes over Canberra because Canberra is the capitol of Australia.
the following is an article i have just posted at http://jwfacts.com/index_files/where.htm i have collected the information from a number of discussions on jwd.
i welcome any comments and suggestions.
?in the long run it is far more dangerous to adhere to illusion than to face what the actual fact is?
Gday JW facts, Good work I agree with you . I just wan to add that type of religion we decide on and the church we go to is our choice and our choice only. I see religion as a big supermarket out there and we all have freedom to pick the product we want. There is also what I would call the black market out there where some religionists promote fear doom if we dont buy there products. these organisations should be delisted as businesses by the people who delist businesses. Cant think of there name is it Atsic or something. Barry
