Is "Scrubs" original to the UK or a variation of the US "Scrubs?"
We have an American version of "The Office" Not nearly as good as the UK original. An American version of "Coupling" bombed.

by JH inwhen you were a devout jw, and if you would have met a man/women that really pleased you, would you have quit the jw organization for that person, if he/she asked you to?

In 1984 I fell in love with a non Witness and disassociated myself before going beyond kissing her. At the time I was convinced that Jehovah would kill me at Armageddon. I told myself this must be how Adam felt when he ate the fruit.
I told Debbie I used to be a Witness but did not tell her I had sentenced myself to death in order to be with her. She would say that something was not quite right about me but could not understand what. I could never tell her I was waiting for God's wrath.
She dumped me after a while and I decided to get re-instated. A few months after that she asked to get back together with me and with great difficulty I said no.
It would be five more years before I broke free of the Watchtower.

According to MSNBC reports Brittany has been pregnant for two or three months. That was while the Pope was still alive, I'll bet it's Jerry Orbach from Law and Order gestating in Brittany's womb.

After I quit the Watchtower I associated for two years with the Fort Worth Bible Student class. I thought they were very nice people.

New Light on Higher Education
by seeitallclearlynow inmy son made a point to tell me that they had what was to him a very interesting, different talk on the service meeting this week.
the presiding overseer gave a talk on the society's changed view of getting a college education.. he used the scripture which admonishes the reader to "acquire a heart of wisdom" and applied it to getting a 4 year college education for the sake of being able to support oneself at double the rate of pay with one's degree upon graduation.
this of course is only for the purpose of being able to then pioneer, only having to work a few days a week, thereby having the time for the field ministry.. such an annoying change - finally!

I thought this changed in 1994 or 1995. I remember reading in a Watchtower article at that time stating that no one should be looked down upon for going to college.
I remember thinking, "You bastards, why didn't you print that in 1976 when I got out of High School!"

The cable news network MSNBC reported that the Pope was not embalmed because "saints" bodies are not subject to corruption.

How To Speak English..
by Englishman in..like the english.. most brits use slang and colloquialisms as part of their everyday life.
even jw's use the less offensive terms.
i was surprised that many americans hadn't heard of the term "loo" before.

the love of money is the root of all evil? or is it?
by zen nudist in.
i have not see anyone mention this..... but it seems to me that money is the one unifying force the world over, as more and more countries become just different aspects of the corporate world world peace seems more likely than anything religion has ever been able to accomplish... war is bad for business over all which is something you dont hear with regard to drug trafficking.... the more an area is dominated by one drug dealer the more peaceful the neighborhood as he finds violence on his turf to interfer with his money.

Anyone who says that money cannot buy happiness does not know where to shop.

Do "born-again christians"believe that the Pope went to heaven or hell?
by booker-t ini ask this question because i know alot of "born-agains"that do not like roman catholics and feel that they worship mary and will not make it to heaven.
my friend that is a devout catholic has told me many horror stories of christians sending pamphlets to catholic churches telling them that they will burn in hell.
i was igronant of the anti-catholic hatred that is taught in many born-again christian churches.

When I lived in Southern Oregon there was a billboard along I-5 from the local Seventh Day Adventist Church saying that the Pope is the Anti-Christ. Many people wanted that billboard taken down but since it was on private property it would stay up.
