  11. Other. I always preferred the boobs that would just read it word for word from the text. It was the other dorks going off on tangents (e.g. "and this reminds me of brother half-wits talk at the assembly last weekend where he brought up the parable of the.... blah blah blah") that made the torture last even longer than it had to. Fortunately, I was so pre-occupied checking my watch every 10 seconds I didnt pay much attention to any of the comments anyway.

  I dont understand why anybody would need another reason beyond the UN and 607 debacles to avoid going back to the KH.

  Are JWs the Only Christian Religion who Do Not Fight in Wars?

  by blondie in

  2. beliefs

  *** w90 2/1 p. 22 exposing "the man of lawlessness" ***in our century, which religion has obeyed this law of love?

  surely not the religions of christendom, for they have slaughtered one another by the tens of millions in two world wars and other conflicts.

  it is jehovahs witnesses who have obeyed the law of love earth wide.

  Are you a "here I am" or a "there you are"?

  by Mulan in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  a friend of mine read a book about 30 years ago, that said people are basically categorized into two main types.

  here's how you define yourself:.

  when you walk into a room full of people, do you think to yourself "here i am" or do you say "there you are".. i am definitely a "there you are".

  So kid A, how would you explain it if someone were to change? Do you propose that the chemical levels can shift?

  People can and do change. Inborn biological predispositions however, do not change. Yes, it is possible to force yourself to do almost anything. I can only speak from my own experience having been shy all my life and having known many shy people: "extroverts" very often accuse us of being 'selfish' and self-centered and this is total nonsense. I am not shy out of disdain for others, my shyness is not a choice. Its difficult for extroverts to understand this, and naturally shy people often end up being ostracized for no justifiable reason.

  Well, I would characterize this as declaring yourself as "here I am" in a backhanded or "negative" sort of way - you have a definite sense of existence as an 'egocentric' enitity, but it seeks to avoid being noticed.

  No, I would strongly disagree. Shyness is not a choice, it is a biologically determined predisposition. My inborn trepidation around strangers is not based on any egocentric tendencies. Look around any roomful of infants, you will find "extroverted" children and "introverted" children on a natural continuum. Biologically, we know that extroverts have higher levels of certain neurochemicals such as dopamine, while shy, introverted people have lower endogenous levels.
