It sounds like Smith has enough material for Dogma II should he decide to make one.

Great qoutes from JuDgE for A day RuThErFoRd
by Scorpion in"the size of the nose, as also the size of the eyes, is not without significance.
the small-nosed man cannot have a judicial mind, whatever his other excellencies may be.
and a man whose nose upturns can no more be expected to administer justice than a pug dog can be expected to act as a shepherd.".

A character in the Tom Robbins book Jitterbug Perfume recommends the air bath thing for life extension, if not immortality. I wonder if he modeled Dr. Morgenstern and his Institute for Immortality after Rutherford and Beth Sarim.

Thoughts...
by RichieRich inall to often, my mind drifts to my mixed feelings for my mother.
the deep love that burned in my heart for the woman who had given me life.. the suicidal remorse i felt for bringing such guilt and reproach on her good name.. the blinding anger i felt for her never questioning her beliefs, but always questioning her son.. and so i'm left with a vacuous emotional chamber for a large element that is missing from my soul.. and when you've lost your most valuable possesion, everything else is gravy on an empty plate - pointless.. and so i hurt too, and i love my mom, but does she love me?
the unanswered question haunts my mind.. we recieve, we give, and sometimes, we just plain screw up.

Richie, I'm sure she does, as best as she knows how. It's just that her definition of love has been skewed by a destructive cult.

I had never heard of her till this recent 9-11 widows remark. I did see her on Jay Leno with George Carlin. His gesture of blowing on his hands and rubbing them together summed her up perfectly. What a cold blooded woman.

Non-JW asks: Why do JWs allow drinking? But forbid Birthdays?
by whyizit inmy jw friend recently condemned birthdays using two scriptures that spoke of evil men killing people on their birthdays.
seems to me that the men were evil, not the birthdays.
today is my birthday.

My brother in law was raised a Dub and is a big time drinker, when I asked my mother If she thought he drank too much and she replied, " If it wasn't for the truth, ### would be an alchoholic". I can't see why he can't be both.
Mr. Stealyourface.

Why did you choose your USER NAME?
by In Between ini think some people actually use part of their real name.
i chose mine because i really feel 'in between', in that space where your not a jw anymore but really haven't figured out where you are in life and what path you want to take.
just thought it would be an interesting topic.

I chose my name and avatar from the oriental concept of loosing face. I lost many things I value to this cult; my sanity and almost my marriage, my relationship with most of my worldly family and all of my friends. For a long time, I felt the only honorable way out was seppuku. Shortly after I made my decision to never go back, I was attacked by a dog. Fortunately, I had a real good reconstructive surgeon. I also love the Grateful Dead. So, who else could I be but Stealyourface.

Statement made by Bush in regards to Israel
by Highlander in"we have made it very clear that israel should be allowed to defend herself," bush said in washington.
"we've asked that as she does so that she be mindful of the saniora government.
it's very important that this government in lebanon succeed and survive.".

It isn't the colorful language that struck me as crude so much as the appalling display (and audio) of piggy lips smacking. I really hope that his mother at least tried to instill common courtesy, and I feel sorry for Laura.

I have always wondered how a country's gender is determined. There is Mother Russia while Germany is the Fatherland. The US seems to be gender neutral, except when it comes to the flag, as in long may she wave.

The problem with this situation is that they will try to pass the problem of these people onto the congregations.
LongHairGal, I hope they do try to pass this along to the congregations. Many, including my relatives are under the delusion that Bethelites who 'retire' are put out to pasture in the company infirmary. Hubby talked to his mother today, asking her about Emshoff (he came from our area and she knew him and his family before he went to Bethel), and she said these ones are well taken care of by loving arrangement of the GB, that there are no worries for his retirement, he would be sent to the farm.Here is my prediction: If he relocates to the area he is originally from, and is destitute, my family will spin this as either the GB allowing the brothers the privilege of showing christian charity to a Bethelite. Or if the brothers are operating as per usual and show no charity, the gossip mill will go into double overtime speculating what sin he has committed to loose out on the pot of gold at the end of the theocratic rainbow retirement that those in the hinterlands imagine Bethelites 'earn'.
Tough object lesson for Mr. Emshoff, but this could be an eye-opener for some lucky r&f publisher as to how the cult operates. Probably not in my family though.
