Heresy Zev, heresy. Stargate was a lame B-Movie that has gone on to be a lame series that has gone on, and on, and on...and if that wasn't enough now we have Stargate Atlantis. Will this crap never end? Farscape was so much more original, quirky, fun, witty, etc..

The only question I have about SG-1 is how in the world they got Ben Browder and Cluadia Black to stoop to appearing on the freaking show that killed Farscape, which was by far the superior show.

Sport and JWs!!!
by zagor injust wondering what your experiences are.
were you "encouraged" not to devote time to personal exercise, gym or sport in general?
i remember this one time co gave a talk how "we do not need sport" then he proceeded to explain how walking up the stairs in field service was exercise enough for our legs, then how we didn't need any stretching exercise as making gestures while explaining the bible verses would do the job, and so on.

This is a familiar rant for me. Sports was the be all and end all for me. The battles with my parents began with little league baseball and pop warner football. Long story short I started playing on the sly (forging their signatures etc.), I was really quite slick for a runt but eventually got caught. There was the big throwdown and they caved and let me play, dad lost his priveleges over it and now looking back I realize what a sacrifice he made for me.
To tell a kid that wants to play they can't is like telling them they can't breathe, its just horrible.
As an aside the only serious injury I ever recieved playing sports was with a-hole JW's who wanted to show their stuff on a Sunday afternoon as they had no where else in their miserable life where they could show their stuff so to speak.

Inappropriate "shepherding" calls.
by avishai inhow many have recieved calls by the elders that were under the guise of "shepherding", but somehow inappropriate, i.e, you were a woman alone with only one elder showing up, or you felt physically intimidated by both.
or say they show up at like, 10:30 at night for a shepherding call.
and you say "hey, i appreciate the visit but please call first!

I was 20 or 21, hard to remember now. I think my last meeting was about at 18. I was living at home and going to school, the deal with the parents was I could do whatever I wanted, just not at the house. I think they were trying to keep me close in hopes of winning me back and I think they felt some guilt over my repeated rants of the WBTS stealing my childhood. I was doing the usual college stuff, power drinking, wench clenching, inhaling, as I say the usual stuff. I was never baptized mind you and these two goons show up at the house first telling my parents the whole laundry list of my transgressions and saying they wanted to talk to me about it. So I get a call and I come down from my room and dumb and dumber start in on me.
For a couple of minutes I was just stunned, then I tore into them, first I say, you talk to my parents about what you hear I have been up to, I'm a man for Christ's sake, talk me not my parents. Then I say, a-holes, I haven't been to a meeting in 3 years and I'm not baptized so where do you get off even talking this shit to me. I told them they had 10 seconds to get out of the house before I threw (not a figure of speech) them out.
I believe I hold the unofficial record for the briefcase toss. I snactched the one nimrod's briefcase and did sort of a shot putter/discus deal before launching that sucker. Almost got me thrown out of the house but it was worth it to watch that sucker fly before hitting the pavement and spewing WBTS crap.

JW kids who are currently in college LOVED the convention drama!
by urbanized inhere's a transcript of a post about the 2005 godly obedience convention (which i read about on this board and seemed to highlight a drama in which a biblical story was highly distorted in order to discourage higher education) from a jw youth group on www.myspace.com.

I wonder how much of this sort of "compartmentalizing" if that's what they are doing leads to mental illness. It seems they are creating two distinct personalities within themselves which just can't be healthy.

Does anyone else flip off the Kingdom Hall when they drive by?
by Dustin inso it has become habit for me to go out of my way when driving to make sure i can give it the finger as i drive by.
i especially like to do this on the way to one of my favorite bars, especially on meeting nights just so people who knew me can see me do it.
i don't know why, but this has become a tradition of sorts.

I'll often give the KH the international peace symbol when I drive by, and I too get sort of a queasy feeling thinking that I could have bought that crap that I was raised in and still be apart of the borg.
What I really wish is that I could projectile vomit at will ala the Exorcist, I'd just crank the window down and bazooka the place as I passed screaming in that great demon voice from the Exorcist the GB sucks caulk in hell.
