  mouthy is one of the coolest people on this board.

  she has also been out of the jws far longer than most of us.. but with mouthy leaving, who will be our next top apostate?

  duties: keep the seat warm until mouthy comes back.

  The title of this thread made me think of "American Idol" and we do have a Simon of our own.

  tuesday night's book study dealt with the resurrection and why we can have confidence in it...blah, blah, blah!

  so after meeting as we are sitting around and chatting i spoke up and said, "did lazurus get resurrected with his same body or with a new one?

  " i asked it purposely because on page 68, par.

  Aatheist,
  Have you read Kiln People by David Brin?
  An interesting look inside the heads of clones and the continuity of awareness and a pretty good mystery besides.
  
  it would be the awareness that I died. that the person I was in the pre-Armageddon state is decomposing and that now I was a copy. If i chose to, I could go dig up my corpse, that would freak me out completely

  Pony Tail = Preemptive Strike on the Dubs

  by Siddhashunyata in

  since growing a pony tail i have a sense of command .

  i am no longer visited by the elders ( to encourage me), dubs may say hello but never converse ( to encourage me).

  i have a sense that i'm having the last word .

  I just had to move away, start smoking a pipe, get a girlfriend, grow a beard, and stay away from all things dub-related.
  
  If I'd known all it took was a pony tail,I'd have kept mine.

  Why do the majority of "newbies" disappear ???

  by kid-A in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have noticed that, in general, there is a "core" of regular posters on jwd that have been members for several years.. however, it seems the vast majority of "newbies" disappear after a couple posts, days or perhaps a week.

  how many "welcome" or "introduction" .

  threads have we had here where the new member disappears within a day or so, never to post again?

  "Cyd" is my second account here. I lost the password to my first go around and it seemed easier to start over. There may be similar things happening with the newbies. And it's sometimes hard to fit in a new place, even when it is a screen on a computer. And of course there is all the guilt that can arise from years of conditioning about visiting a site such as JWD. It takes a lot out of a person to finally speak out against the WTS.
