Sorry to disappoint middy
Lol - did I SAY I was ''disappointed''? I am just getting used to a new ''you'' - I think you're very brave putting your pic up soooo soon, you don't believe in doing things by halves, do you? lol
after reading jt stumbler's topic on avatars, i recognised that certain avatars appeal to me, and i'm sure others feel the same.... .
elsewhere (no idea why, gimme a clue), ezekiel3 (says a lot), euphemism (loved the marx bros) and googlemagoogle (so classical) spring to mind, oh, ip_sec's last avatar (the red pyramid) - want to revert back ip_sec?
oh, and stillajwexelder - after reading your posting on jt stumbler's thread i realise i previously had the wrong impression - lol.

I like to see people's faces
Yep - me too - strange how we build up an image of someone, and it's completely wrong...you hear me IP_SEC? loI
I particularly like Sassy's and Dansk's.
an oxymoron is a combination of contradictory words.
"pretty" means the opposite of "ugly".. here's a bunch of oxymorons, which i took from: .

Saw this one in the newspaper today (modern day buzzwords), thought it amusing -
FOXYMORON - Someone who is incredibly attractive but, at the same time, so mind-numbingly stupid or dull that he/she incites simultaneous feelings of intense attraction and repulsion.
i was just reading something and got to wondering..does anyone know how many of the remnant are left?
isn't "the end" supposed to come when they are all gone?.
and how can they be leading the faithful and discreet slave if they live in our area?
I used to find it quite odd that in the early days, many from the same families would all claim to be of the Anointed .That in itself doesn't make sense.

I heard (last week) that it isn't known if any of the Remnant will be alive at the time of ''The End'' - yet as a youngster I remember that THOSE still alive at the end would be whisked away to Heaven in the ''twinkling of an eye''. So the ''new thinking'' rather makes that Scripture redundant.
cause i'll be on vacation with my tribe!.
i'll be going to akumal mexico for a week with my family.
i'm introducing my kids and wife to something i learned and practiced growing up outside the borg....charity and guilt free enjoyment of a hard earned vacation!!!.
Enjoy, relax, and don't forget the postcard!!
well i am no longer one of jehovah's witnesses.
i had fully intentioned to disassociate myself from the platform today, but i decided that if i wanted a chance to save my marriage that i'd better tell my wife.
she immediately went to to one of the elders.
IP_SEC, Matt - I wish you well - I suspect you have a dificullt time ahead. Thinking of you.
this board is quite helpful in a number of ways.
do you feel that you contribute to the growth of this board or are you just a taker?
Nope - never - and reading that I feel quite inadequate. NOW I feel I cannot contribute as I should.
My Biblical knowledge is sadly lacking ( I'd make a GREAT JW!)
i think the society should ban drinking.
anyone caught drinking should be disfellowshipped.
would anyone have family left in the org if they did that?
Jesus DID turn that water into wine - so he MUST have approved of drinking (whew - I can see this as a future WT/Awake article)
Answering Readers' Questions. ''I know several JW's who get completely ratted on a weekend. I know it's NOT unscriptual to drink as Jesus turned water into wine at a wedding, but is excessive drinking Christian?''
Answer, ''As explained in Matthew 2, ''Every other man puts out the fine wine first, and when people are intoxicated, the inferior''. As we can see from this Scripture, it is NORMAL practice to serve ''fine wine'' early in the evening, and anti-freeze later (when everyone is too Brahms to notice).
what's the best way to get to people to expose the watchtower's lies??
tell the truth.
point out how jws are a cult.
Why did the Society change its standing on the blood issue? (BIBLICALLY) Is it trying to GRADUALLY phase it out?
