The music and cinematography was pure Bond.

My first comment to my wife was, that was the best James Bond movie since Goldfinger.

Best movie I have seen in years!

When Bruce was in Royal Oak Michigan doing a book tour for "If Chins Could Kill" he stopped in at Thomas video. I quickly unbolted the stock on my shot gun and got it signed.

"This is my boom stick" his PR guy litteraly almost wet his pants when the aformentioned object was identified. Bruce was cool with it though!

My buddy knows the folks who run Anchor Bay Entertainment, so he sees Bruce about once a year or so.

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.

For someone who has a Trek icon you are apparently unaware of the 34th Ferengi Rule of Acquisition

Rule 034	»	War is good for business.

My take on this scripture is that "Love your Neighbor" is in direct opposition to the "Love of Money". People, not things are important. Due to the over emphasis of money in our culture I believe that people are increasing objectified in our culture.

Believe me corporations do not have your best interests at heart. The second that a corporation thinks you are a liability, you will go loyalty aside you're gone.

The peace you talk about in a drug lords territory is the peace of the gun, you step out of line you die. The same peace brought by the Soviet Union to Eastern Europe. Now that the gun is gone, they kill each other willy nilly.

What is Jacko's status as a JW????

by mrd83 in

i know he was raised as a witness and he wrote the apology letter(which was published in the watchtower) as well as giving the wts a boatload of money($$$millions$$$) over the fallout of his thriller album.

recently he proclaimed his faith in jehovah as if he is still a jw and his father who kicked the crap out of his kids(requisite to raising a fine jw family) as well as his mother are attending court.

what is this guys status??

Survive1999

Worst argument for being a JW:

Micheal Jackson is a JW! You could grow up to be like him!

Run screaming in terror!

The Pope is NOT the voice of God on Earth

by Survive1999 in

i have always been a little bit puzzled by jws loudly proclaiming that the pope is not the "voice of god on earth", and turning around and vernerating the watchtower as "the voice of god on earth.".

i have repeatedly told jws to apply the same standard you do against the pope to the watchtower and you will be more than a bit dissapointed.

the best answer i could ever get was, "well that's different".. can any exjws explain this?

Survive1999

I just don't understand the cognitive dissonance that alloows that thought process. I guess my question should have been what is the "official WT stance" on a question like that.

BTW: If ya had to put a label on me Evangelical would fit.

And as far as Popes go, this last one stood up to Commies and Nazis, getting cudos from me!

I shouldn't laugh ...but

by aniron in

last tuesday my jw nephew 26 yrs old, got df'd.

seems his jw father (my brother) and mother came home and caught him having sex, with a guy!!

seems they walked in when the guys were right in the middle of it.

Survive1999

Well parents being proud of the face their children show them is not anything to be ashamed of. We all have our dark little secrets, but I am a firm believer that when somone casts the first stone they better be ready for the Truth Bomb to be droped on them.

I made a vow to God and myself that I wouldn't do anything that would get anybody pregnant when I was 14 years old, and it stuck till the day I got married 16 years later. In all honesty it was the best descion I ever made and I would make it again.

It saddens me to think that anyone, JW or not would destroy their marrige for a cheap thrill.
