What do you think of the WTBTS explaining away of God NOT having a beginning? Ps. 90:2 is always quoted and explained as he's always just been there and that we as humans will never grasp that concept because we have a beginning and will have an ending (death). How did God come to exist? How could he just always have been? Who/what created him? Another in a series of questions that are just haunting. Comments, anyone?

All-time favs: Chris Rock - common sense up-in-yo-face humor. Love this dude. All-time fav.
Steven Wright - Turning intellectuality upside down and inside out.
Paul Mooney - Used to write for Richard Pryor. Funny as hell.
Red Foxx/Richard Pryor - The originals.
Robin Williams - The comic equivalent to a of a hit off a crack-pipe.
Dennis Miller - Funny as hell especially if you have a Webster's Dictionary handy.
**On a side note- Venice IT, yeah you Ven....that new pic is FLY. You rocking that new 'do......

Headcoverings, Goals & Women's Roles
by Black Man ini have always felt that requiring sisters to wear headcoverings was assinine.
jehovah won't strike you down for not wearing a headcovering".
word gets back to the co on his next visit that i don't let sisters wear headcoverings at the bookstudy when they read and he reams me out for it.

I've been away for a few and am just getting back to responding to posts.
AGuest: I really appreciated your insight. Like TJ, I must agree that this must be a topic that you've given a lot of thought to. My big thing was how can anybody (heavenly or earthly) seriously consider someone whose sporting a downey napkin on their forehead. The JW requirement just seemed pretty assinine to me. Anyway, I dig your posts Shelby. Thanks & Peace, my sista.......
TJ: A NYC thang? Nah, just one of those scratch-your-head-while-wondering-aloud-what's-going-on type of things. peace and got-damn, my brotha.........
Billygoat: You were evidently one of the more sensible ones. I can sympathize with how you felt.
AChristian: Like Shelby you've done a lot of research into this. Peace & Thanks....

back to basics
by cnn77 inas soeone raised in the truth my whole life i am struggling with a basic doctrinal issue.
the issue has to do with universal sovreignty and the ransom sacrifice.
let me try to illustrate by way of analogy:.

I'm pushing this back up because this has been just about the most troubling thing for me in Bible Reading. Jehovah's justice overshadowing his love to the detriment of humanity disturbs. I seriously struggle with viewing the Ransom as pointless because of this situation. Jehovah's empowering Satan to take his issue to universal levels vexes me. Sprit creatures (Jehovah, Satan and others) obsession with testing and playing a game of chess with the human race bothers me. And we're supposed to rejoice and appreciate the fact that Jehovah provided the Ransom sacrifice for us? I hope this thread gets some other comments on it, because I'm still struggling with this. I really can't get past this and consider the rest of the bible until I resolve this issue within myself.

reappoinments to elder or MS after a move...why?
by chester inthis may have already been discussed in this or other forums and i may have missed it.. in another thread chipster mentioned something about coming up for reappointment after a move.
especially if i was coming up for reappointent after a move.
it has always been a puzzle to me why a brother should have to be reappointed to his position after he moves to another congregation.. i have never heard anyone complain about it.
