  for years i have seen this guy on tv i recall going out to la for a dc and his church was located in the territory of the bethelites family i stayed with and we laughed at how he was getting over on folks, just taking their money.

  and now i learn that he got his early training from the jehovahs witnesses.

  yes i think fred price is my new idol.

  Ah yes, Fred Price.

  Oh, about 3 or 4 years ago I was flipping through the channels one morning and there he was preaching in his church. When something catches my attention, I will stop and watch for however long I am kept amused. Well, Mr. Price caught my attention one particular morning when he was berating his "flock" about tithing and rubber checks. Apparently, some of his followers were writing bum checks and Mr. Price had had just about enough of it. Seeing that he drives a Rolls, the message must have been received loud and clear.

  You mean like during WWII in Europe when they were getting the s**t bombed out of them? Can you really blame us?

  Good grief! Not THIS one again!

  Britain has stood by the USA during so many other world crisis' since WWII. It's like having a friend that you have borrowed money from, and then after you pay it back, they keep reminding how nice they were to lend it to you in the first place, OVER AND OVER AGAIN!

  Besides, the US had two very profitable years before entering WWII. We didn't enter UNTIL we, ourselves, were attacked at Pearl Harbor. It's not like we were some shining savior that gallantly rushed to defend the British because THEY NEEDED US.

  Hmmm...lots Americans on this thread..he he

  I'm very nice and polite. I also cuss once in a while. Don't carry a gun, but have taken firearms classes. Got an A. I don't mind criticism, as long as it's fair.

  Should I continue to support Bill Bowen?

  to whom it may concern, .

  i have contributed financially to the cause of silentlambs.org and have, to a smaller extent, even promoted the website.

  it is difficult enough to fathom the depth of hurt heaped on humankind, but impossible for me to understand how such suffering can be compounded with injustice, as i read experiences on silentlambs.org.

  I wish Bill would drop the Ray thing. I especially wish he wouldn't prostitute his very useful site to further his personal war with Ray. It waters down his entire effort. He should remain focused on his primary mission and let Ray alone. Totally. Using up any space on his site to argue with Ray makes him look like some kinda kook. I wish he'd stop it. Now. Damn.

  I agree.

  awwwww Minimus.

  He doesn't know it, but I ADORE Farkel!

  It just not a good week without him barking at us about something.

  He's only the warden because he looks good in the uniform. Besides, that's only a water pistol in his holster.

  Dubs will not generally tell the truth when they are confronted with the question, Do you believe that ONLY Jehovahs Witnesses will be saved at Armageddon? They always come up with some excuse like, Well, thats not for us to say. Only Jehovah can read hearts, even though their literature says exactly the opposite. When a dub makes that excuse and are then further questioned with, So does that mean you believe that some non-JWs will survive that battle?, they reply with Well, thats not for us to say. Typical doubletalk.

  Yet, this is precisely the reason they cling to their dubious dogma and ever-changing doctrines. It may not reside in their conscience thought, but IT IS there swirling like a silent maelstrom being contained desperately within their subconscience. It arouses my pity and my anger.

  Generally, I when I ask a direct question, I want a direct answer. Their little dance of "only Jehovah can judge hearts" annoys me to no end. They know the answer, but to speak it out loud may frighten away new converts. And most importantly, acknowledge to themselves the twisted, vile organization they are apart and actively promoting.

  Why I don't Have Children

  by teenyuck in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i just read luckylucy's thread and wanted to tell my story.

  i also want to ask a question: why are women who have children viewed more favorably than women who don't?

  especially if the choice is to not have children.

  TeenYuck,

  It has always been my opinion that people that don't desire to have children, ought not to have them. I only get annoyed when they attempt to offer me little "gems" of parenting advice, or get all huffy when a child misbehaves.

  I didn't want any children either until I met my husband. I was militant anti-kid. In fact, when I ran into one of my closest friends from high school after nearly 20 years, she was SHOCKED that I had kids. I have a younger brother and sister. My brother being nearly 11 years younger than me. My Mom was only 17 when she had me and was done having kids by the time she was 28. She really scarified her youth for marriage (at 14!) and kids. I didn't want that to happen to me. When I was a teenager, you wouldn't have been able to pry my legs apart with a crowbar! I never had the idea that sex was bad, I just wasn't willing to risk pregnancy.

  I didn't have my first child until I was nearly 30 and married for over 4 years. Then, we were also told we probably wouldn't have children because of a condition my husband has. "A million to one" his doctor told him. Ha! When I went off the pill, I was pregnant within 4 months. Make that a million in TWO!

  Anyway, it is none of anyone's business why you don't have kids. My best girlfriend is childless by choice. Our lives are very different, but I wouldn't never fault her for her choice. She sometimes baby-sits my kids and they adore her.

  Tena, it seems for you, childless is the right choice.

  Andee
