  I was in a library once- a frickin' LIBRARY- and this five or six year old was laughing out loud as he was running down the ailses intentionally knocking every book off the shelf. Every single one; I am not exagerrating one single bit. But get this: his mother was right behind him the whole time! Imagine your stereotypical dumb blonde; that was her to a tee. She was whining after him in her ditzy voice "Now, Jeffery, I really wish you wouldn't do that..." My tax dollars paid for the librarians to clean up the mess.

  Tell me, what scars a kid worse, growing up with NO DISCIPLINE or getting a whack on the butt for vandalizing public property?

  I was in a Borders once-with a girl no less- and some little bastard thought he'd try some Micky Mouse bullshit and hide behind a CD rack and throw jellybeans at us. I couldn't decide whether or not to go after him. Better to look like a bully going after some little kid or a pussy if I did nothing? So I went after the kid and snatched the box of jellybeans out of his hands, and he had a look on his face like he crapped himself. I can't remember what I told the little punk, but I made him cry in front of two of his friends. Oh yeah, it was like 10:00 on a Saturday night, and these 12 year-olds had no parents in sight.

  NWT Sighting on American Idol: UPDATE

  i remember this caused quite a stir a few weeks ago.

  for those that don't remember, during a quickly-edited montage on american idol a woman appeared to be holding a copy of the new world translation.

  well on tonight's episode it seems this was the mother of a girl named a'ashia ("asia").

  No, she wasn't singing gospel. She actually had a rather unique voice; I was surprised they cut her. But then again, she looks like a boy. The producers put all of the ugly people in one room, all of the bad singers in another, and split the keepers in two other rooms. The hosts then went to each room and related the good or bad news. This A'aisha'a or whatever the hell lipped off the show something fierce after her room got axed (the ghetto attitude).

  This is the first season I've followed the show; now I see why it's been such a hit. It's fun.

  I smell a rat. Since when do Witnesses talk about "the end of the world?" "End of this system of things," maybe. "The last days," maybe. But "the end of the world?" I don't buy it.

  Did your KH sound system ever pick up CB radio?

  i remember mine did, way back in the early- to mid-80's.

  it was always funny to all of a sudden hear a trucker hollering out the f-word in the middle of the service meeting!

  man, if could only imagine the deer-in-the-headlights look of panic in the eyes of the elders.

  Well did it? I remember mine did, way back in the early- to mid-80's. It was always funny to all of a sudden hear a trucker hollering out the F-word in the middle of the Service Meeting! Man, if could only imagine the deer-in-the-headlights look of panic in the eyes of the elders. The couple of seconds that passed as the brother running the sound system scrambled to turn down the volume must have seemed like an eternity to them.

  i got into a debate with 2 other friends (one a mormon and the other jw, i'm rc) about the blood transfusion issue.

  the jw friend cited: genesis 9:4,16 leviticus 7:26,27 & 17:14 acts 15:28,29 & 21:25

  i cannot for the life of me see how anyone can read those and honestly beleve that what was ment was to reject blood to save life!

  A Mormon, a Jehovah's Witness, and a Catholic are sitting around discussing religion? Sounds like the start of a joke to me! Let's see, how can we end it? They all get in a big fight over whose religion is correct, the Witness says "If you don't believe in my religion you can drop dead!" while the other two say to eachother "And you can go to hell!"

  Why Do You or Don't You Believe In The Bible?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  do you believe in the bible just because you were raised to believe?

  are you sure it's "believable"?

  .....have you convinced yourself the bible is just another book?

  Don't you know? The Bible is a unique book. Unlike the Greeks, Romans, Egyptians, Hindus, Native Americans, and Norse tribes, it just so happens that every piece of folklore the Ancient Hebrews and Isrealites had was 100% factual. And even though all of these other groups claimed to be God's chosen people, it really was the Jews.

  Don't you know? Secular History agrees with the Bible. King Belshazzar of Babylon was once thought to be a myth invented by Bible writers, until archaeologists proved he lived. That proves every last detail from the Bible is correct, although the discovery of Troy doesn't prove everything from Greek mythology is true.

  Don't you know? Scientists found a woolly mammoth in Siberia that died with food in its mouth. That proves the story of the Flood, even if there's not a shred of geological evidence anywhere else in the world and the woolly mammoth story doesn't even make sense.

  Don't you know? I think the Bible is a joke!

  Well on tonight's episode it seems this was the mother of a girl named A'ashia ("Asia"). This woman was indeed holding a Bible, but we never do get to see the front of it. It had tabs marking off the different books, but Dubs add these all the time. The thing is the daughter had cornrows and even the mother had quite the ghetto attitude, so even if it was the NWT these two are not your bread-and-butter Dubs.

  Anyone else see it? Opinions?

  Ticker, how do you then explain the fact that the god of the Bible routinely slaughters innocent children for the sins of their parents? While you bring up the fact that the BIble claims God killed every living thing at the Flood, you then attack the Witnesses for judging people. While we know this is true, and you do make some very vaild points, none of these reconcille the issue of God killing innocent children. Frankly, the god of the Bible has killed so many children for the sins of their parents that we can establish a fairly predictable pattern of behavior: if you're a kid, and your parent pisses off Jehovah, you're about to be pissed on by Jehovah.

  Do Jehovah's Witnesses believe in God?

  if they did they would not feel the need for things like judicial committees.

  they'd leave it to god who supposedly can see all to judge peoples heart condition.

  i remember a young sister who left home and went to live with her boyfriend.
