A sexually mature buck (male GOAT) makes himself attractive to the does by urinating on his own forelegs and beard.
A doe entices the buck by squatting and urinating in front of him. The buck then tongues the stream of urine...

Any cowpokes here? Got a calf question...(gross - ladies don't look)
by ataloa ini just got back from helping to put out some hay, which i've done for three years and i just saw something i've never seen before.
a cow had to go #1 and her young calf stuck his face into it midstream and got a drink.
now, i thought i'd see him shake his head and spit and sputter, but instead he went back for seconds.. anyway, just wanted to know if this was common cow behavior?.

Disclaimer: Of course, I am not privy to all the details (real or imagined) of this story.
From what I read, what concerns me less is the fact that the police (apparently) made a foolish mistake; what concerns me more is that they (apparently) conspired to file false police reports to conceal a felon(-y/-ies) -- the one(s) they committed.

Doctrinal ramifications of large increase in 2008 memorial partakers?
by yadda yadda 2 inthe nearly 10% increase in partakers at the memorial in the 2008 annual service report is a huge increase.
there were increases in the previous years too.. this massive increase is no doubt attributeable to the 'new light' this year that the calling of the 'heavenly class' was not closed in 1935, as previously taught.
the new understanding this year is that the calling of the 'anointed' class is 'evidently' still open.

Raymond Franz pointed out very well that there is practically no difference in how the 144k and great crowd are presented and described in Revelation, however, this does not necessarily mean the GC are a heavenly class..
The naos itself is specifically stated to be in Heaven in Rev. 11:19; 14:17; and 15:5.
The "Great Crowd" is in the naos (en to nao) according to Rev. 7:15.
Ergo, the "Great Crowd" serves in Heaven.

So let me see if I understand this correctly.
The average number of publishers increased 2.1%.
The number of acknowledged partakers increased 9.677% [!]

COMMENTS YOU WILL NOT HEAR AT THE WT STUDY Nov, 24-20, 2008
by Mary ini told blondie i'd do the comments this week to help give her a bit of a break.
this week's study is all about resisting the spirit of the world.
this is nothing new really-----they've been preaching this for decades, but it still unbelievable how hypocritical they can be......... the study article is in black, my comments are in blue and unless otherwise noted, all scriptures are from the nwt.. .

Mary comments:
And notice how they tie in "apostate speech" and put it on the same playing field as "spiritism", "drunkenness" and "adultery"? And as "proof", they off the two Ol’ Faithfuls: Hymenaeus and Philetus who had "....deviated from the truth, saying that the resurrection has already occurred...".
More "proof positive" that the WatchTower Society can't see beyond the end of their nose.
W 01. April 1986 QfR:
Do we have Scriptural precedent for taking such a strict position? Indeed we do! Paul wrote about some in his day: "Their word will spread like gangrene. Hymenaeus and Philetus are of that number. These very men have deviated from the truth, saying that the resurrection has already occurred; and they are subverting the faith of some." (2 Timothy 2:17, 18; see also Matthew 18:6.) There is nothing to indicate that these men did not believe in God, in the Bible, in Jesus’ sacrifice. Yet, on this one basic point, what they were teaching as to the time of the resurrection, Paul rightly branded them as apostates, with whom faithful Christians would not fellowship.
This is most fascinating. When the F&DS was supposedly appointed in 1919, the Watch Tower Society was still teaching that the Resurrection had begun in 1878 -- a teaching not altered until 1927 -- and which teaching the WTS then rejected as false in favour of the "new light" teaching that the resurrection had begun in 1918. (Currently, the 1918 date is viewed only as "an interesting possibility" [W 01. Jan. 2007, p.28])
According to its own published standard, the Watch Tower Society in 1919 would be 'rightly branded apostate, with whom faithful Christians would not fellowship'...

They "Keep Following the Lamb" - February Study Article (Praise for the GB)
by Ultimate Reality inthe article is not yet in print, however on jw.org you will find the audio recording for the february 15, 2009 study edition.. this article sums up some of the talks given over the past year or so.
it makes clear that we should trust the faithful and discreet slave because jehovah and jesus trust the "slave".
the slave has been faithfully providing spiritual food for 130 years.

As individual Christians, how do we view the timely spiritual food that the faithful slave dispenses by means of bible-based publications and through Christian gatherings?
I view it as so much rubbish. What the deuce is "timely" about the pabulum they spew? http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/12/118225/1.ashx

Kingdom Hall Weddings - November Kingdom Ministry
by BluesBrother inif this has already been posted up - then i missed it.. this question box left me .

bennyk
What concerns me most regarding this article is the fallout that will occur where some have decided (or will decide) that they really didn't want the hassle of the Kingdom Hall wedding. The "Rumour-mill" will quickly conclude that they were forbidden (or realized they would be forbidden) to use the Hall because of "conduct unbecoming a Christian"...

Deceptive or just wrong?
by johnnyc ini have been virtually non-stop studying everything i can get my hands on with regards the wtbts, and "apostate" literature and information.
in all honesty, 80% at least is non-sense and over critical.
however, i do find about 20% (if i have to create a percentage reference) is appropriate in its line of reasoning and questioning.

Fine and dandy, old bean. But the Society is in no way, shape, or form "God's channel"...
