  Are you paranoid about posting?

  poor jwfacts got sprung when the jw trawlers were able to join the dots.. no, that's wrong - they knew it was him but it took something else for them to be able to prove it.. i am not game to post a bio about myself.

  my jw siblings are very litigious.

  one even sued another jw for libel.

  Paragraphs - just do it

  i am not being picky or having a go at anyone.. i love this site.....it is my distraction at the end of the day and there are so many wise comments that i love to think about.. but too many of you compose posts with huge paragraphs.

  it's like opening the page of a 'phone book.. when i see such a post, i know it is going to be too hard for me to find the place on the screen if i am distracted..........so i don't even bother to read it.. if you want someone to read what you are writing, make it easy for them.

  otherwise the potential reader's eyes will glaze over when they see a humungous "telephone page" and they will skip on to something easier to read.. i know that i do.. when you have a new thought, start a new paragraph.

  Let's get organized

  by wombat in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i've made a couple of posts just now on other threads,,,,,,and i'm off to bed.. 2.15 am and a bad day.. look......whoever is running this place, you don't need thousands of idiots like me phoning and emailing the media.

  they love a good story but will be totally confused if they get dozens of disjointed stories.. get organized.....all you need is email addresses.

  you have the professionals to write the press releases.. we are just amateurs and will embarrass you if we attempt to do the same.. please set up a site where we can submit email addresses of the proper people that press releases should be sent to.. a simple phone call will give any of us posters the email address of the editor or religious writer of any newspaper.. if we all did that and sent it to a central source, this site could immediately release explosive material world-wide overnight.. please..........just get the email addresses and leave it to the professionals on this site to spread the news.

  Internet prophesy ???

  by wombat in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i recall a wt publication about 40 years ago saying that a biblical prohesy of "a threat from the deep" or some such thing - possibly revelations - referred to nuclear missiles from submarines.

  i was amazed at such foresight.. has the wts ever found anything in biblical prophesy that refers to computers or the internet ?.

  sorry, i've been out of the loop for a long time but i enjoy reading of their funniness.

  Jihad

  by wombat in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  my (non-jw) son refuses to talk to any of his jw uncles, aunts and cousins.

  his daddy (me) da'd over 30 years ago and has been shunned by the large jw part of his family ever since.. so, in my adult son's words, he had declared jihad on the wtbts and refuses to acknowledge any of them.. he's a successful popular fellow that everyone looks up to.

  they will miss him.

  True happiness is a cold beer

  2. humour

  son was recently door-knocked by a pair of sombre j.ws.

  who began by emphasising what a bad state the world is in and asked him to agree.

  his response was "bull #hit".
