  visiting 'apostate sites' - spying - can it be done?

  by unhappy in

  2. friends

  please advise me - can i be spied upon.. i share broadband access with another computer in my home.

  the other computer is the main access wireless provider for broadband.

  can the other computer be set up in such a way that the apostate sites i visit are noted by the computer user.. hope i'm just being paranoid.. thanks.

  Angelic DNA

  by Woodsman in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  in considering the wts beliefs about the angels who came down and had sex with women, producing offspring i began to wonder.

  this would mean that angels have the abilility to create a human life without god's help.

  both by creating a human body and taking possesion of it and by then using that body to create offspring.. this whole business of materializing is suspicious.

  Voodoo and New Orleans

  by free2beme in

  2. friends

  a few years ago i was in new orleans for a business trip and took some time to check out the area.

  very humid, not my cup of tea and i was glad i was only there for two days.

  anyway, there is a strong amount of connections in the city with voodoo.

  Preying on the vulnerable

  by carla in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i wonder if jw's know that society at large finds it disgusting that they prey upon the most vulnerable?

  (this is actually a rant i can't elaborate on, but i'm pissed off about it)

  What do women REALLY want?

  by Abandoned in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  ok, i've heard it all: sincerity, honesty, security, money, love, romance, flowers, poems, promises, and more.

  but, in my arguably limited experience, i've been shot down while doing all of these (at differnt times obviously).

  so, what do women really want?

  Post your favorite saying

  by Scully in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i was just pondering how the wts has, for over a century, been able to convince people to do what is contrary to their best interests with fear tactics that armageddon is coming soon, and i came up with what is going to be my pet phrase for a while:.

  "only religion has the power to compel people to embrace sheer stupidity in the name of faith.

  " ~ scully, december 28, 2006. i googled it, and didn't see that anyone else has claimed it, so until someone else finds an attribution for it, i'm claiming it as my own.

  i know that this in not news to most here - but to some newer 'faders' or 'lurkers' it might be.. jeff .

  There is no such thing as Agnosticism. Agnostics do not exist!

  by nicolaou in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  many here seem to believe that the position of agnosticism is somehow more reasonable than theism or atheism.

  nonsense!

  it is a misconception to believe that belief or non-belief in the existence of god/s are the two extremes which glare at each other over the fence of agnosticism.
