  i have been told recently that jw brothers and sisters, plan jw singles cruises.

  could this be true?

  i thought there was rules against such a thing.

  My mom and her friends go on Witness only cruises every year. Not singles though.

  I've always imagined these things being tedious ... but its only real recreation my pioneer mom ever gets so I'm grateful for them.

  However, a JW singles cruise with relatively young travelers could be interesting for someone who ... uh, might want to capitalize on all the pent-up sexual frustration. With a lime, some salt, and a bottle of Tequila ... you could basically screw your way through the entire ship.

  Hmmm ....

  I?m not surprised about the new Pope.

  Once upon a time

  . . . and I?m not even talking about back in the day when Jesus ( the original Christian ) , preached about love and compassion and looking out for the weak, the sick, and the poor. But I am talking about a time, more recently, when ?The Church? actually followed his evangelical credo.

  Now there are still examples of this,

  but for the most part, it?s gone. The religious right is in power now, and they don?t give a damn about the weak, the sick or the poor . . . or for that matter, Jesus? message of compassion.

  An evangelical coalition, with Bible ensconced in armpit and tongue firmly in cheek, lobbies for tax cuts for the wealthy . . . and in the very same breath, against programs for the poor, affirmative action, and anything that even remotely assists the disenfranchised.

  But they love children though, I?ll give them that.

  Well, they lobby against abortion that is

  . . . but check out the Christian Coalition ?s record on programs for actual living breathing children, especially little brown ones. It seems to me that if you?re still a zygote, they?ve got your back, but once you pop that coochie you?re on your own.

  And once upon a time

  A question for Atheists

  by IP_SEC in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  if you are an atheist, what are your thoughts on the afterlife?

  mortality?

  we are what we are until we die, then are no more?

  I find, though, that a lot of people who claim to be atheist, are really agnostic.

  classy ...

  i've often found myself toggling between the two. for me, i think, i would accept the possiblity as a way of 'doubling-down' my bet ... just in case. you know?

  i could always say, "Look, Big Guy. I never said you didn't exist. It's just that you've been out to lunch for a very long time and ....."

  Anyway, as for an afterlife ... I've lost people who were actually 'soul-mate' caliber. If there was something more, if they were still watching over me ... I'd know it. Even if it was against some AfterLife code of conduct, they would break them to contact me. It's never happened.
