  JWs in world politics: Jehovah's Witnesses Are "Politically" Neutral - NOT

  by Dogpatch in

  http://www.osce.org/odihr/16533.html.

  so, you say that jehovah's witnesses aren't "political" or take any part in the affairs of the world?

  http://www.osce.org/documents/odihr/2006/10/21654_en.pdf what does the watchtower say about "political" involvement?

  Oh yeah, forgot to address your question. Mouse/keyboard is my preference. WADS layout preferable.

  do you guys have friends who are not of your religion?

  if that person is a good human being but from a different faith will you guys have a issue?

  are you guys open to new beliefs?.

  Elder Scrolls: Arena was the first one. Then was Daggerfall, then Morrowind, then Oblivion. Daggerfall was okay for its time, but I wouldn't bother now. The graphics will likely drive you mad as the difference between it and Morrowind is great.

  I haven't tried looking for it on eBay as my PC won't play it anyway.

  I can just hear it now.

  "Have a blessed day!"

  "And may Lucifer kiss your childrens' brows each morning too ma'am!"

  Holy schikeys! Hmm... I've got balls, but I don't think I'll be trying this out anywhere near where I live anytime soon.

  I've played all of them since Arena. My poor little PC at home is too old to play Oblivion though. It's just an AMD XP 1700+. Maybe Oblivion will cost less than $50 by the time I upgrade and can play it.

  Hello all, here's my story.

  by Paralipomenon in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  brace yourself, this may make you gag.. holidays were spent in service.

  some friends were having a bbq that we were invited to, i went down and asked to see if there were by-products in the wieners.. i was baptized at 15.. i asked to be baptized at 12 and to humor me they let me take the test.

  to their surprise i actually aced it but the elder convinced my parents that i was still too young.. i would run lemonade stands in the summer time and donate the proceeds to the hall.

  Paralipomenon, welcome to the forum. I see you've been a fader for ten years now. Interesting story. It sounds like a high level of integrity was the source of your questioning. Good on ya!
