Also, those scumbags that put drugs, pins, and razor blades in products to be handed out as treats ought to be tried and then tortured.

Your thoughts on Halloween , yes, no or maybe ?
by Finkelstein inwell its that time again when the ghouls come out to play.
i personally think halloween is a bit irresponsible and inappropriate from a sociological perspective.. there's something about the intent of frightening young impressionable children minds with frightening objests.
and feeding them candy which most likely cause tooth decay and stomachs is irresponsible activity conducted by adults.

I love Halloween. The neighborhood bonds and we have a good laugh. It's amusing to go out to a bar in costume too--it breaks the ice and gives a reason to strike up conversations with strangers.
It's pure fun. Life is hard. Having a few laughs is awesome.
I don't like being scared myself and would not go to haunted houses so people can scare me. I wouldn't startle others either.
I do have some spooky decorations. Life is spooky. It's ok if we make light of that. It's kind of empowering to mock death.
There is no such thing as demons or ghosts, so that part is just for laughs.

Should I associate with this person?
by stuckinarut2 inso there is a guy who wants me to associate with him.
but there are some strange things about him, such as:.
he hears "direction from unseen" forces.. he thinks the idea of slavery was ok.. he likes killing animals and splashing their blood around and making huge bonfires of carcasses smoke all day long.. he has one wife, or maybe two, but is ok with having lots of other sleeping partners as well.. he likes another person who slept with his own daughters.. he thinks women should be subservient and "keep their place".. he frowns on education.. he thinks killing in a war is ok if they deserve it...even babies should be killed.. he is often asking for money.. he thinks that pyramids foretell the future, and that only a few people can explain divine truths to him, except their explanations have changes many, many times...often contradicting other teachings.... etc..... get it?

LOL, no, you should stay far away from whatever biblical character you're referring to. He is bad association.

My First Birthday.....
by The Marvster ini awoken today and realised immidiately i'm 44 today... and after 3 years of being out, decided to acknowledge my birthday.... i'm off out to treat myself to a big hearty breakfast with cup of tea in the local weatherspoon's by the massive pond full of weird bird-life, later today i'm giving myself a gift of a 90 minute relaxation session in a float tank down by canary wharf in london.... only really have 2 close friends (it's a slow process trusting people agian) and they probably won't be able to see me today, but i'm sure i'll have a belated surprise from them both.... the first thing i did when i remembered was to rush to the computer, connect to the web and put on stevie wonder's 'happy birthday', as i listen to it, tears stream down my face... all those years of my life stolen ' but..... i'm free....'.

Did you like hymns as a jw?
by jean-luc picard ini was just explaining to mrs picard........ never a jw, and not english, how we used to celebrate the harvest festival, when i was 7 and younger, before my parents converted to jw'ism.. i loved to sing "we plough the fields and scatter".
of course, singing such hymns is, to a jw, paramount to apostasy,with the death penalty like punishment the ensued.. how really stupid their harsh rules.. did you have any favourite hymns?.
i think we would all agree, that they beat the pants off the "kingdom melodies".

Yes, some that I remember from pre-borgification are Ave Maria, Kumbaya, and Amazing Grace. -

Jehovah's Witnesses are not Christians. It's impossible.

The dictionary says people who believe in Jesus as a supernatural god are xians. jws meet that criteria.
It strikes me that all other distinctions are really things individual religions have chosen to add to the definition, which is what denominations and religions are all about--making their own definitions.
"Belong to Jesus" vs. "receiving salvation through Jesus' sacrifice" to them is a big deal, because they get to convince themselves they are the teacher's pets.
To me, it doesn't really matter which one is more "into" Jesus or any other imaginary bearded sky daddy. The bible has been massively disproven as a source of fact, truth, wisdom and morality.

Demonic Appliance Assessment Tool
Was the oven purchased at a garage sale?
Did the homeowners have backwards masking rock music records, wind chimes or Ouija in the house?
Have you heard whispers at night that subsided when you called out to jehoohoo?
Did the voices beg you to bake devil's food cake?
Did the oven temperature setting dial get stuck on 666 degrees?
Has an invisible force tried to have sex with you?
If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, please contact the elders immediately for spiritual guidance.

Why oh why would they go outside to try to stop the violent guy?
Because they had 2 angels that were supposed to by their side that only the attacker could see, thus making the attacker believe in jehoover and ask for a bible study.
What the elders did not know is the angels had taken a dinner break and were eating BBQ ribs at the time of the attack.

Living forever
by jws insomeone on facebook posted john 3:16 where it says people will live forever.. not that i believe it, but i just cannot imagine this.
this, to me, would be the true hell.. if i'm very lucky, i will live to be 100. at nearly half that, already some parts of life no longer hold much interest to me.
even tv shows.

I believe I could be very happy living forever if I was healthy, safe and financially set. There are endless new experiences to have--hike a trail, read a book, try a food--when you're done with doing everything once in about a million years, start over.
I think a big part of why we lose interest is aging. Certain things are not as exciting, and they get difficult because it becomes harder to learn new complex things, or physical limitations grow.
For example, I used to think going to a club on Saturday night was the most exciting thing on the planet. Once I did that a lot and wasn't single anymore, it wasn't as exciting. If I had the physical ability to dance all night like I did back then though, and the $ to waste ;), I'd do it even now.
