  What's the most thought-provoking novel you've ever read?

  i'd have to say for me that it was ayn rand's the fountainhead.

  even though i don't agree with a lot of her philosophy, it definitely made me stumble around in a thought-induced haze for a few weeks after reading it.

  John Gresham's "The Chamber". It changed my mind on the death penalty from PRO to being against it as it is practised here in the USA.

  "Gone With the Wind". Read it cover to cover in two days.

  Spritual Armor: The Facts

  spiritual armor: the facts.

  dubs and their religious leaders are legendary for the incredible and astounding claims they make about themselves: they are the only "true" religion.

  they are the only group who will be saved from god?s murderous wrath they are the "oldest" religion which ever existed.

  Thanks Fark,

  I always felt that there were a small number of "base" scriptures and just get recycled over and over again.

  Often thought about tracking them but I selpt thru too many meetings for such a Herculean task. Actually I rather enjoyed all my naps and daydreams about Sister hottie. hahahaha

  Thanks, as always for your food delivered at the proper time.

  the writer had recently lost a child and the child's obituary was recently printed in our paper.

  I always have counted "marital due" as "service time". I was so happy when they announced the 15 minute rule.

  a florists went to a barbershop for a haircut and went to pay the barber when he was done.

  the barber thought that was very nice.

  later that afternoon a cop came in for a haircut when he was finished he went to pay the barber but again the barber said he couldn't accept payment since he was doing community service.

  No wonder the JWs never discuss the Good Samaratan. That good person didnt have the time to stay but instead left money behind to ensure the victims care. Pretty much like contributing to United Way etc. I my 55+ years I have never come directly in contact with someone who desperatley needed help. Prior to becoming a dub I contributed to the United Way. Now that I am out I am back to lending assistance to those in need wether I can see them or not. JW's are extremely self centered, inward looking and selfish. All in the name of serving the sock puppet JAH. battman

  JWs mentioned on MSNBC commentary

  http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/7289351/

  msnbc online has an article written by arthur caplan, ph.d. it's pretty good actually, page 2 he writes, and yes, we heard from the vatican about its thoughts concerning schiavo.

  but where are the christian scientists, the jehovah?s witnesses and the fundamentalist protestants who turn to prayer to express their views on the right to refuse any and all medical care including a feeding tube?

  Does the WTS's past matter?

  i know, i'd jump into this topic by saying, "heck yeah.

  they're the ones saying they've been appointed by god based on what they were doing back around 1914-1919.

  " but i'm trying to help someone out who has reached a roadblock with his wife.

  Yes, the past is extremely important. Once I found the internet and could finally do some real research I was stunned by the magnitue of their errors. It was mainly their own past that set me free and to think I only went to the web to find a suitable sister. ROTFLMAO.

  All you guys have written some wonderful relpies with lots of insight and logical thinking.

  My only additional comment would be their revisionist history. This is about the most disgraceful, lowest academic trick, and most dangerous there is.

  Besides "I didn't inhale". ya right

  Try www.Battery-Web.com. or BatteryMart.com BTW the reason for large price variation is the quality of cells that go into the battery pack. Cells from Japan like Sony, Sanyo are the best. Often some suppliers will use inferior cells from China. You usually get what you pay for. battman

  watchtower red flags

  2. friends

  when i was studying and in the org i never did put two and two together becuase first off it was peer pressure and a young baptism age.

  i was indoctrinated as a child so i never got a chance to ever use sound reason and judgement toword the validity of the society's claims.

  but anywho i was thinking the other day about certain things that are obvious red flags and far fetched claims that the org makes.

  Hi Ben, One aspect of truth, not da troof, is willingness to candidly admit mistakes. Review the results of Nixon, Clinton, etc etc. It is not usually the crime it is the coverup that really takes them done. Real men admit their mistakes and ask for foregivness. The GB are not men in any way shape or form. Sad, very sad. battman
