After work. I'm going to my brother's and we're going to see a movie. I'm probably going to play some left4dead on his PC (since my laptop can't play anything). Then i'm going to pass out in the living room. :-D.
Maybe tommorow i'll play tennis.

As far as because of content. Buffy the vampire slayer . I convinced myself that i wouldn't watch the show for the demons/vamps even though i am a HUGE horror fan. The first rated R movie i saw in theatres was 'slither', and after that i stopped "missing out".
As far as because of the times, i only saw the series premiere episode of 24 because I was sick and stayed home to watch it. I know i would have loved the show if i could, but tuesday was bookstudy night and couldn't get home in time to watch it. I know this sounds petty, but i'll never forget it, I missed the last episodes of Xmen and Spiderman because we were out in field circus. I'm going to find them on Youtube right now.

Lol, the thread is pretty funny. One JW vs a mix of ex-jw's, catholics and protestants about what it means to be christian and irritation at using the forum as a method of peddling their fiath.

I agree. I watched it saturday morning after TIVO'ing it and i LOVED daybreak part 2. Put Daybreak part 3 felt contrived.
My problems:
1) How could lee adama convince 35,000 people to just give up technology and just 'live off the land'? I'd have told them "Screw you" and took the timonium ship and landed somewhere in south america. Its not like they would have been able to stop anyone.
2) Why didnt they explain the whole baltar/caprica 6 'angels' bit? I was reallly surprised that they didnt bother saying why, but then showed them 150,000 years later walking through the streets.
O well, i will be watching Caprica and "The Plan" later this year. BSG will be missed.

What are some of the 'good' things you learned during and after being a Jehovah's Witness?
by Dune inmy problems with the wtbs have always been their doctrine and their absolute control of the rank and file, not the principles that they and most mainstream religions teach.
i grew up in a predominantly black urban metropolitan area that had a high crime rate and drug usage.
when i go back to my old neighborhood, i always hear about how some of my peers are drug addicts, incarcerated or dead.

My problems with the WTBS have always been their doctrine and their absolute control of the rank and file, not the principles that they and most mainstream religions teach. I grew up in a predominantly black urban metropolitan area that had a high crime rate and drug usage. When i go back to my old neighborhood, I always hear about how some of my peers are drug addicts, incarcerated or dead. Of course, anyone could have avoided this if their parent's gave a damn and we're instilled with a sense of decency and reponsibility, but a part of me feels that i was able to bypass this fate because i was being too busy being good JW boy.
Here are some of the things i learned during and after my 'tenure' as a JW:
- Everyone should learn Public Speaking.
- You'll often hear people tell you how much you owe them , in reality, you don’t owe the vast majority of people shit.
- Dress for Success.
- Tact, Charm and Genuine Interest can take you a long way.
- If someone says they're your friend, but would stop talking to you because of a difference in viewpoint (or lack thereof), they were never really your friend to begin with.
- If you're under the age of 18, you probably not mature enough to make life-altering decisions.
- Biblical Mathematics is for the sheep.
- College doesn't kill a person's faith, but rather their ability to idly take bullshit.
- Don’t mentally or physically abuse people because of who they are, or what they believe in. It's stupid and none of your business how someone chooses to live their life.
- And finally, If something has a direct benefit to a person or specific group of people and an 'eventual' benefit to everyone else, don't fool yourself, the benefit was and always will be for the former.

Alex Jones, in my opinion, is on the same level as 9/11 truthers, Larry Sinclair and Phillip Berg. But you have to hand it to a guy who'll forgo DVD sales and place his movies for free online...
