i guess i've been inspired by stephen's quote threads, so i'm going to start one myself.. not one particular author here, just whatever i can find:.
q: why do you think that people are so protective of their egos?
why is it so hard to let go of one's ego?.
This is a funny scripture because by definition
ALL habits are bad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A habit like lighting up is bad, right?
where as one of walking is good, right?
Definition----INVOLUNTARY pattern of behavior acquired
by frequent repetition;manner of conducting oneself;
an ADDICTION.
Didn't mean to interupt your thread Intro, I just thought
it was something for people to think about.
Peace and Love-----Mark

Jang---I believe you are like that,
so why, why, are you applauding and siding
with a leader who believes the exact opposite.
In the end it won't save your country any money.
Also your leaders solution does not solve the problem
so UNTIL NEXT TIME a punch of refugee's wash

Sister Jang can you spear a dime,
Brother Mark I've already given maybe some other time,
But my family is ailling,
Don't come here with you wailing,
If I help you and yours more will be knockin' at my doors,
I don't mean too offend
I just don't know if I can make it around another bend,
Thats not my fault
I must I must bring this to a hault
"Let us Pray"
when i first moved here to fuquay, i became good frineds with one of my neigbors.
i told her all about the jw's and my involvment with them.
not to long after that, the jw's started coming around our area.
Does your dog bite?
NO
ruff ruff ruff mangel and maul, maul and mangel,
I thought you said your dog doesn't bite
Not my dog
i was wondering if anyone was privy to any insider information about whether or not the society has seen the need to cut back on the meetings to possibly 2 or even just 1 meeting a week?
As long as the almighty buck is the name of the game
the "Song will remain the same".
4--meetings are directly tied to the money machine,
Watchtower study brings out nothing of value---but
sure helps the circulation numbers, Book study is
another way to make you buy a book----A real Bible
study would actually use the Bible to study from
(oh sorry thats a born again thing). The other two
nightly meetings are only needed to help you be a
better magazine and book salesman,
If the cash cow should ever starve wave the flag
sing and dance
for ALL meetings will be a thing of the past.

just found this website... thought it sounded like a nice idea, now this is my idea of charity.
makes a mockery of the charitable status of the jws doesnt it?
Charity begins at home. Their are people going hungry,
homeless right down the street . We as individuals can't
feed the world but we can help feed the kids next door,
and help house the homeless in our town. That way we
know all our time and effort and all the money given has
gone direct to those who need it . No middle men no
Big Headed Comiedians using disabled kids to get a
noble peace prize and stroke their ego's. Give directly
to a Dr. thats doing research in your neighborhood.
Give directly to a battered woman's center in your area,
take your kids around "your hood" to beg for food to take down to your local food bank on a saturday. Let your light
shine, let your soul shine, and let it spread worldwide
one to another until ALL are housed and fed.
"You know I'm a Dreamer but I'm not the only one someday
you all will join me and we will all live as one"
LET THE REFUGEE'S GET TO LAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
is that asking too much
P.S some churchs(not JW's )do wonderful work. A lady I
know asked me to take her by a church(born again) they
were going to give her food coupons(real money as far as
the food store was concerned she would need no real money)
I asked do you go to church no last time I was there I got married 11 years ago. JW's are you listening to this.

I'm getting in this rather late, I must say I don't think of
myself to be able to articulate things better than Kent or
JanH. I scimmed through the thread so I didn't read everthing .
First I must say Prisca I'm disapointed most of us were
happy with Farkel's return and what He wrote about, please
go back and read it. These are the "least of my brothers".
Jang just said some place was too overcrowded tell me
is it less crowded on the boat there on. The nerve of these
people to want a better life for there families, Prisca, Jang
and all others on that side wouldn't you have spent your
last dime to make things better for YOUR family. Oh and to
pick where they want to go after being saved from the sea
more nerve, Yes back in the days of slavery in this country
the "!@##$%" would much rather be droped off in the heart
of Dixie than a port the Yankees had control over.
What of the men on that ship trying to make a living to
support THERE families----They were good deed doers now
oh well go fuck yourselfs shouldn't have picked them up.
Do you guys realize what Janh is saying here---These men
are working now there families are drowning on dry land.
Look I don't know if I believe in the Ol' Testament or not, but
if it is true,when god confused are language we set up
countries, in essence HE CREATED HAVOC (He created
counties) It's time to end that GAME and "do unto others".
Heres to seeing all of you on that boat at one time of your life or another
Just a "Simple Man" who still BELIEVES in Lennon's IMAGINE
australian troops boarding a norwegian ship??
is this the beginning of the end?.
doom!
Hey Shaggydo---Whats wrong with you?
I didn't call you or your Countrymen Nazi's, please
show me if I did. Also I didn't say YOU would let anybody
drown----again show me if I did. Actually I assumed you
would go out and save a human from drowning. YOU
said about YOUR country "we have one of the better human rights records on this planet", with that being said I hope
your a good swimmer,
Peace and Love, Mark
P.S. I love Prisca does that help.

nytelecom1---OK
SCOOBY---Make sure before you go into the water to save
someone whose drowing they are not illegal because if
they are you are sure going to be doin' the backstroke
for a long time, hope you stay a float.
