So why are you going to "turn yourself in" anyway?
Trust me....Jehovah does not keep watch over the congo....I know 4 or 5 friends that were committing grave sins the whole time they kept getting "promoted" up the ranks. First to MS, then to elders. All the while living a lie. What happened to these so called brothers getting prayed over at Bethel before they are asked to serve? Pretty crappy system if you ask me.
Why has the Watchtower been wrong so many times about the end of "the system of things"? My parents kept telling me I would never go to pre-school before the end...then it was elementary school....then jr. high...then high school...then college.....still blab about it coming tomorrow. It's been 30 years. Pfft.
Read old Watchtower magazines....and Society quotes. They are embarrasing. http://www.reexamine.org/quotes/

For once Albert...explore the teachings of the WTBS from those of us who have been there, done that.
Did you know that the WTBS has membership in the United Nations?
Did you know that not a single, solitary encyclopedia you can get a any libarary says that Jerusalem fell in 607...they all say 586/587....meaning....1914 couldn't have been the year as JW's teach.
Do you know how many times JW's have flip flopped on the blood issue? Medical issues?
Please....spend a few hours here looking through old posts. Get to your library. Read one or both of Ray Franz' books.
Remember Jesus said to measure all things, and that truth will hold up to the light of examination. Please do so for your sake. Welcome to JWD!!! -

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things
LOL....Ok...just kidding.
Literally kid...get out of this cult now! It's a horrific mind controling evil empire. Be who you are. Embrace what you do and are. Seek a guidance OUTSIDE of the JW's...see a shrink trained in exiting cults. -

This is what happens when Christian Fundies piss and moan. They ruin a great venue for everyone. Show me a boob anyday over these geretric goons. Waiting for them to come out using walkers and canes. How pathetic.

Wicked angel was driving the UFO the wise men saw
by Franz inif an angel was in a ufo that led the astrologers (the 'wise men') to the young child jesus in that house (mt 2:11), then it must have been a wicked angel.
we have these pagan astrologers (greek, "magoi"; see de 18:10-12 and isa 47:13,14) traveling along and they see a "star".
(how convenient; astrologers.....stars.....) does it lead them directly to jesus?

Looking for mentioning UFO's in the scriptures. LOL!
Isn't that like looking for a report on the gross domestic product of Chile in the National Enquirer? The bible was the trashy supermarket tabloid of the day, and now don't we look foolish for still believing it?

Do you support gay marriage?
by chappy inis your belief moral, social or practical?
would you feel the same way if there were absolutely no religious influence on the matter pro or con?.
regardless of your belief, does every adult have a fundimental right to marry anyone of his or her choosing, regardless of gender?.

Maybe the original sin was that since God created Adam in his own image that he slept with Eve. Adam engaged in the first perversion of God's plan. Each with their kind. Adam ate of the fruit of Eve's Lunchbox Apple instead of waiting for God to make Steve as his sexual equal. After all we know Jesus was perfect and yet didn't spend time getting married, he spent time hanging out with his male lovers at the local casbah. Peter and Jesus cut a mean thread at the local "Men's Only" bar. Makes more sense than a naked woman eating a piece of fruit.

The Chinese torturing cats and dogs by the millions
by greendawn init is strange that in this day and age a country like china with a tradition of civilisation going back to ancient times treats cats and dogs as if they are nothing.
it's not just that they eat them or kill them for their fur but the cruel inhumane way in which the kill them, believing that if they die a painful death their meat will be more tasty.
not to mention that often they skin them alive as they don't care to wait until they die.

I've found some of the replies interesting. I do not condone the "torturing" of animals. In fact I don't like animals to be killed for food at all. But can't you see the selectively thinking eating one sort of animal over another is our own bias? LOL. I mentioned Octupus before, from Wikipedia....
Octopuses are highly intelligent, probably the most intelligent of any of the invertebrates, with their intelligence supposedly comparable to that of the average housecat. Maze and problem-solving experiments show that they have both short- and long-term memory, although their short lifespans limit the amount they can ultimately learn.
An octopus has a highly complex nervous system, only part of which is localized in its brain. Two-thirds of an octopus's neurons are found in the nerve cords of its arms, which have a remarkable amount of autonomy. Octopus arms show a wide variety of complex reflex actions arising on at least three different levels of the nervous system. Some octopuses, such as the mimic octopus, will move their arms in ways that emulate the movements of other sea creatures.
In laboratory experiments, octopuses can be readily trained to distinguish between different shapes and patterns. They are able to open jars after learning from observation.[1] Octopuses have also been observed in what may be described as play; repeatedly releasing bottles or toys into a circular current in their aquariums and then catching them. Octopuses often break out of their aquariums and sometimes into others in search of food. They have even boarded fishing ships and opened holds to eat crabs.
In many countries, including the United States and the United Kingdom, octopuses are on the list of experimental animals on which surgery may not be performed without anesthesia.
Saying eating one form of animal/seafood over another isn't always accurate. After all they eat horse meat in France, yet most American's would cringe at eating a plate full of "Trigger" or "Mr. Ed". -

Why I'll never see 'Brokeback Mountain'

yep, i'm 'homophobic' and damn proud of it!

Cost to shoot Brokeback $ 14 million. Usual marketing budget $ 20 million = $ 34 million
Estimated box office in the US $ 100 million.
Other countries + DVD + Rentals $ 100 million
Total take $ 200 million - $ 34 million = $ 166 million gross profit
Enough said. -

Trocul...you were showering with lots of gay guys while you were in Iraq. Might want to cut them some slack since they were defending their country. It's an interesting fact that gays are actually over represented in the military vs. civilian life. Must be all that man on man showering goin on.
LOL
