  Holy cow girl! Talk about in-depth. LOL
  
  I read the book of Enoch a few years ago and thought it was a very interesting read. Whenever I brought it up to a JW, they'd be all mamby pamby about it not belonging in the bible, yet couldn't give me good reasons why.
  
  I'm going to print out your post and read it on my lunch break tomorrow. My brain is too tired to understand the full import of your writings this evening. But thanks for all the hard work!

  2. relationships

  hundreds of gay couples are preparing to form civil partnerships in the coming weeks as the law changes after decades of campaigning.

  at least 1,200 ceremonies are confirmed as being scheduled already and registrars are preparing for the first ceremonies, with couples permitted to register from monday morning.

  so how do you feel about it?

  God only hopes that gay folks could revolutionize the wedding industry. Get rid of those tacky tuxedos and bridesmaid's dresses.

  Why Iraq Is So Desperately Important

  the subject of politics often comes up on this board, inevitably.

  whatever our opinions on the subject are, most of us share a common.

  struggle against the demands of religion(s) that seek to dominate and ruin your life, whether the "truth" or something else.. sad to say, everytime the human race seems to be generally ready to shake off the shackles of controlling religious bigots, something.

  LSD in the water supply? LOL. Do you have any idea how impossible that scenario is?
  
  But I guess that sums up your entire set of propositions. A bit over-the-top and alarmist. Now if you excuse me, I have Henny Penny to attend to. Thanks.

  Was Rutherford a good lawyer? Or was he Bluffing?

  by VM44 in

  was rutherford a good lawyer?.

  this is a question i have asked myself several times.. the facts are tha rutherford took a course in shorthand, and worked in a law office for a time, and then became a lawyer (passed the bar) by passing an oral examination given by a panel of lawyers.. does that qualify for an education in law?.

  rutherford, as it is well know, filled in for the travelling circuit judge a few times, for a total of four days.. years later it was published that rutherford was a member of the "new york bar", but there is a question if that group even existed.. there is no record that i know of indicating rutherford ever won a case in court of law.. when ct russell sued the brooklyn daily eagle for libel over a cartoon of him that they published, another lawyer instead of rutherford was used (although rutherford was there and involved in the case, he just was no the lead lawyer).

  "Good" and "lawyer" never go in the same sentence. Much less a "good lawyer". LOL

  i don't know if any of you brits saw the 'this morning' show today but they had a woman on it whos mother had tried to abort her at 7 and a half months pregnant, apparentely they gave her mum some stuff to drink which burns the baby inside and out, but fortunately this baby survived and now as a woman she is campaigning for anti abortion laws to be brought in.. so, what are your views on abortion?

  Here's the beauty of the situation. If you don't believe in abortion. Don't get one. If you are ok with them, fine have one.
  
  What your next door neighbor does regarding this doesn't affect you in the least. Why does this, along with gay marriage, create such a stir? As the law stands now, no one is going to force you to have an abortion against your will. However, I do know that JesusJuice Drinkers would love to make it so others could not get an abortion, or at the very least curb them dramatically. Usually these staunch anti-abortion folks are also of the political stripe that they hate any forms of welfare too. So they want to force a woman to have a child, yet no provide any financial assistance either. "They should work their butts off gosh darn it...no one helped me", is their usual refrain.
  
  We have a long way to go towards helping our own infant mortality rate. In fact a baby born in Washington DC, has a higher mortality rate than one born in Beijing. So until we take care of the babies already being born, let's not get too upset about those not being born. Also, there are many charitable organization out there that help women bring babies to term instead of aborting them. If you are so anti-abortion, let me ask: Are you putting your money where your mouth is by donating to these causes? Or volunteering? Or petitioning your lawmakers to change laws to help women to choose to bring babies to full term?
