ah yes...ye olde post of six hundred and sixty six, and my last here on this board.. first a few things outta the way:.
comf: "not in the ball park".
idiom used to define a playing field within the political or pop-debate spectrum.
Dude that was better than a Viking funeral. I envy you your freedom. Once my kids are grown I may follow a similar path. So ... adios muchaho. I wish you well in your travels, and may a CoolBreeze bring comfort to your brow when the sun becomes unbarable.

for those who wish to continue spiritually strong after jehovah's witnesses, contact
for free issues of the free christians news.
Great ... now your trying to foist your crap off on this site. I am absolutely not interested in another whacked out deluded "Bible Study".
Why the hell would I want to study an antiquated book of Roman propaganda anyway. To be quiote honest, I can stomach most of the NT (Greek Scriptures), but the rantings of the repressed homosexual Saul of Tarsus in his epistles makes me ill. If I get just one of your freaked out emails in my inbox I'll be on your a** like stink on shi*. I will report you for spaming ( that is **ANY** unsolicited email in case you are too dense to figure out what spam is) to yahoo. I will report it to my ISP, and any other interested party.

if you've been associated with the witnesses, believing in god was a necessity.
do you still feel that god exists?
if you believe in god, do you feel that he cares about you?
I believe in God. I am not a follower of christianity nor any religion. I have read many of the worlds great spiritual writings and have discovered at their core there is nothing more than propaganda with a political agaenda.
I have a fairly simple philosophy, and that is to make everyones interaction with me positive and uplifting. This is not always possible, but reflects my own persuit of perfection. I believe that there are unseen energies around us, which can be harnessed once we come to understand and exept them.
Hmmmmm ... I'm starting to sound like a charactor in a Star Wars movie talking about "The Force". You think maybe George Lucas was on to something here?????? Now where did I put that dang light saber????
edited to add:
This is one of the more interesting threads in a while, let's not kill it trying to evangelize
or argue about the trinity. If that's your trip, please start a thread of your own.

you posted that the watchtower closed down the jahchristian website.
my question is: do you really believe that the watchtower is behind this shutting down?
or is this just sensationalism or a form of persecution mania?.
That aluminum foil hat your wearing must be to tight ... losen it up and give your brain some much needed blood flow. Besides, as Valis pointed out in another thread old WT CD-Rom's worn around your hrad provide much more protection fron the lazer beams pointed at your head from all along the watchtower.

nazi ss chief himmler was an admirer of the jehovah's witnesses:.
according to rudolf hoess, commandant of auschwitz, ss chief heinrich himmler often used the 'fanatical faith" of jehovah's witnesses as an example to his own ss troops.
* described negroes as degenerate, degraded, servile {wt jul 15 1902 p215}.
I was never a JW either, does that make me less of a person? Does it make my posts less worthy? Does that make me a troll? Gee thanks Jim ... I needed that.

Looks like the ball's back in your court Jim.

I'm totaly lost here ... Most of this stuff I allready knew from my own research. What I'm lost about here what Jim and focus are disagreeing about. All I see is a bunch of inuendo and veiled statements. Will somone please clue me in???? Maybe I just need more coffee.

this is my first post.
please forgive its length, its bad timing, its preachiness, its prejudices, etc.
it's just one more opinion that i feel obligated to add.
Messenger, as far as satire goes, I think that was pretty weak. I do believe most 14 year olds could do better. Just my opinion.

i was just reading an article in the seattle times about a new methadone clinic that will be set up lynnwood, washington.
lynnwood is quite literally, across the street from me and most of my shopping/errands are done there.
this is the first i have heard of it and i am surprised it hasn't been more newsworthy than an article in the wednesday edition of the seattle times.
Princess said:
I don't see it as a disease
I guess that's a matter of perception Princess. If we treated these sorts of things as a medical issue rather than a moral one, we wouldn't even be having this dicussion. I have a 14 year old son, and an 8 year old daughter. My 14 year old son lives with me, and we live around the corner from a halfway house for recovering drug addicts. I don't have a problem with it. I'm just glad these folks are getting help.
Just my opinion for what it's worth.

...when i read some of the posts in this forum these days.
the founding fathers had it right when.
they setup an electoral college and opted for a republic.
I find it fascinating that people will defend a book created by the Roman government specifically to supress free thought and free spirituality amongst the Europeans they sought to assimilate. The God of the Bible is not my God, for I refuse to worship the creations of man. Christianity and the Bible have come between too many people and their God.
