  Notice the Watchtower filed a "friend of the court" brief.........

  She expects taxpayers to pay for a more expensive surgery and ties that to "freedom of religion". IMHO, freedom of religion should be your freedom to die over your OWN CHOICE of religion. Enough said.

  Love "Man in the Box"

  My attraction to Metal was the "live hard, die young" which was exactly what I expected to do, except God hasn't killed me yet.

  Come Up With Your Own Over-The-Top Sensational "Six Screens" Post

  by OnTheWayOut in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  after reading kool-aid man's title for his thread about "total pandemonium" breaking out on six screens over johnnie, and having a hard time believing he has the gall to use such an outcome to actually advertise why we should go to six screens and listen if we missed it, i figured that we could do better than kool-aid man and post some totally sensational ways to advertise his website and phone conferences.. stuff like this (only better and funny):.

  johnnie the bethelite is actually a governing body member's son.. .

  rick fearon hosts six screens this saturday and admits to being p.t.

  How Old Were You When You First Became "Aware" ...

  ... of the opposite sex?.

  it was the summer of 1966; i was a few months shy of being 13; it happened on our church ground.. i was hurrying between two vehicles to get into the building, when someone blocked my way.. annoyed, i looked up to find this cute, cute guy looking at me appreciatively.. he asked my name.. i froze and blushed profusely, agitated and confused at the tingling feeling in my tummy.. i didn't bother to answer him, but turned in the opposite direction and rushed into the safety of the church.. i sat down beside my mother, took her fan and fanned myself furiously!.

  afterwards, i told an older sister about the incident.. she gave me an envious stare and chided me for being so doggone shy.. ah, memories .... syl.

  Hey Sylvia!

  I was in first grade. There was a boy that caught my eye, so I tackled him on the playground and kissed him. When we were around 12 we had mutual crushes on each other. By the time we got to high school, we were close friends. He had the most beautiful brown eyes..........

  2. friends

  my sincerest apologies to anyone and everyone on this forum who read my first two threads.. i guess i started posting at a bad time in my life.

  not too thoughtful of me but not insincere.

  i have always been a little lacking in the social graces department partly because of my jw upbringing.

  dear newbies and others somehow unaquainted with our resident grandma,.

  "...the watchtower is determined to doggedly hang on to the lie that the time of the end commenced in 1914. there is no other explanation for the watchtower's persistent and seeming incurable interpretive schizophrenia.
