  just wanted to run an informal poll to see how "effective" or hopelessly "ineffective" the borg tract assimilation drive has been.. i for one, have not received the tract, and i live in densely populated development.

  did anybody get it left in their doors/mailboxes?.

  No, but a local mega-church hung some hot pink fliers/invitations on a few doorknobs in my neighborhood.

  I was down in California in the mid-80's and I saw the gap between the poor and wealthy congregations. I attended with the other less well-to-do brothers even though I had family in the rich territories. I felt more at ease in th older, slightly run-down but clean building used as a hall than at the shiny, manicured, and landscaped KH of my relatives.

  Can Someone Explain Horror Movies?

  by onesong in

  i try to be open minded and not judge anything but when i see these movie commercials----.

  i think it was saw iii or something, all this blood, gore, shrieking and grotesque violence, all i can do is ask with a sense of awe --why?

  why would someone want to watch that?.

  I like horror movies, especially the older ones like the Hammer series. I guess they'd be considered campy by today's audiences. But what I do not like are slasher movies. Films that rely on blood and severed limbs rather than tension, suspence, and surprise.

  hi guys... on an off chance that someone here might know..... my manager is one of those very well spoken, very clean cut & well attired breed of men.

  however he wears this dull gold ring that looks very ordinary.

  it has me intrigued because it just doesn't match up with everything else.

  on tuesday night, i took an elbow to the nose while playing volleyball.

  a guy i play with is an er doctor and recommended i go to the er just to make sure everything was ok. turned out i had a "nasal fracture with contusion.

  " anyways, while talking with the admissions lady, one of the questions she asked me was, "any religion or church you want me to put you down as affiliated with?

  Jourles, If your own blood didn't leave your body,I guess technically it wouldn't have been a "sin" to swallow it. I remember the dubs using the example of the heart bypass surgery (closed continous circut) and as long as it wasn't "primed" with blood it was okay. You didn't "prime" your throat with anybody elses blood did you?

  i just received this from a family member, i was wondering if anyone has any videos that depict bapstists, catholics or any other religion helping out with volunteers?

  i would love to respond with my own video that shows jw's are not alone in caring for others when disaster strikes.

  what other group of people can do this?

  I noticed the chairs stacked outside were the same style and colour of the chairs in my old hall. My butt hurts from just remembering them.
