  those census that you get in the mail that want to know everything and i mean everything about your income ,house size, rooms in your home and how much it costs you for heating your home and on and on ,to me it is personal and wandering if i have to send it back because it makes me uncomfortable to fill this out and expose my everything to strangers .

  have you ever gotten one and how do /did you feel about it and did you send it in.

  by law do i have to fill it out and return it ?

  No, never fill it in. This is not nessesary (here it isn't, and I think in america too, there is a privacy law). I am always scary with a census, you know what happened to David......

  Black people won't work

  by SixofNine in

  especially not in this heat; they'll just go stand under the air conditioning vent.

  in fact, the only two groups of people who work in america anymore are white people, and mexicans.

  hell, they ("they" in this case being the govt., i gather, but i'm unclear on exactly what govt.

  I am not in the states and the black people we have here are from africa, they are working really hard. Doing every job they can find, the jobs most white people just won't. Allmost all are working and they use the money to send it home.

  I think they set a pretty nice example.

  Islam extremists..JW extremism!

  by Gill in

  i was watching a bbc programme on islamic extremists and their attitudes that brought back deja vu memories of jw attitudes to me last night.. for a fact i know, that jws do not condone in their teaching violence against others, but they do believe,as do the islamic extremists that those not believing in jehovah, (allah) will be slaughtered by god in due time.. what i found interesting was the attitude that they did not have to obey laws in the country they lived in that went against their belief system rules.

  their religious laws came first not the law of the land, to which they owed no loyalty at all.. one extremist also informed us that since we in the uk had been 'warned' by the terrorist, bin laden that we must revolt and take arms against the uk government, the fact that we, the ordinary uk folk did not jump up and do as we had been told, meant that it was open season on the uk citizens for not following his warning.. extremists all come out with the complete belief also that they and only they themselves are the only true religion which every one else must follow or die.. if that in itself doesn't prove that the jws are an extremist cult, then i don't know what else does..

  I was trying to say that they do it to get to heaven and couldn't get there if they considered what they did as murder. ; :)

  That is just how you look at it. Allah did worse and so did the 'christian God'. So why would they not go to heaven. The qu'ran is full with contradictions. The bible and qu'ran is full of good guys who did worse then those bombers....

  Well, if you would consider there is no heaven, that would solve a lot of problems......

  This is not strictly true. Each extremeist is only a tool to be used by Allah - there is a difference.

  yes, you are true. I simplified.

  I don't think cold blooded murderers cannot enter Islamic heaven.

  Why do you think they could enter islamic heaven?

  before I opened the post, I knew already that the dream must have been about a girl.

  Am I a profet now?

  But I can relate to these experiences although they were some time ago....

  What's your cell phone plan?

  by JH in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  how much do you pay a month for your cell phone service and how long can you talk?.

  i have a motorola 120c model phone, and with bell mobility, i pay 25$ canadian for a card that lasts up to 2 months or 30 cents per local call a minute or something like 70 cents a long distance call per minute.

  so, if the card is good for 25$, and i make only local phone calls, i can use it 83 minutesand for long distance phone calls, at 70 cents a minute, i can talk only 35 minutes.. it's only for emergencies...

  My words My feelings - you're welcome to add yours

  for some reason i just want to put this out there.....because i can.. .

  i don't know what kind of a ""christian"" (i don't label myself as one) i am, as i feel that if for certain reasons one doesn't believe in a god, because there is a lack of evidence - he isn't gonna condemn anyone.

  because you believe in ra/ vishnu or whatever other god doesn't mean you are under condemnation.

  First of all I do not believe in a god.

  But if there is a god who cared like the JW's or otehr christians believe, then of course he would know why people did certain things.
  Would you yourself condemn somebody who is honest and just does not believe in God because of the lack of evidence? So why would he?

  Since there is so little evidence, it would be good not to try to figure out what he wants and wait for him, but to try to do our best ourselves. We are quite capable of knowing good and wrong.
  We can do a lot to help. The JW's will do nothing to help other people. That is really wrong, and makes them dangerous and uncaring.
  We can do so much good, if there is a god he will apriciate it, but in both cases other people will aprpriciate it and we will appricaiate it ourselves.
