ok, i'm not one for conspiracy theories but lately i've uncovered some interesting facts that i think warrant some attention.. first of all, russell was a freemason.
all the early watchtower and books he authored have freemason symbology and art throughout them.
not a big deal i thought, until i read more about freemasons and the so-called "illuminati", a group of 13 families that supposedly control the world.. supposedly these 13 families, such as the duponts, mcdonalds, kennedys, .
Sloppy and incomplete research could persuade someone by means of innuendo and assumption that Russell had ties to Masonry. The facts are however that nobody has been able to come up with any concrete evidence of links between Russell and Freemasonry, and Russell's recorded speeches and writings (including question and answer sessions) have demonstrably shown his lack of knowledge regarding Masonry.
Go to just about any 19th centruy Lutheran church and you'll find "masonic symbols."

I'm cuckoo for cocoa puffs.

stuff that pisses people off at one another.
Personally I'm most tired of people saying *LOL* every other sentence in every post.
i cannot compete with threads anymore.

threads about pit bulls and other dogs and virginity get all the attention.
Bullshit, Doug. 7-8 years ago on H2O and in email you helped me quite a bit. Maybe you've forgotten and need a little time to reflect?
Edited to add, same to proplog.
i was browsing channelc.org and came across this.
how would one follow jehovah?
do the will of the organization and you would be doing jehovah?s will.
Jesus is the means through which JWs offer prayer; that is his function. That is what it is meant by the office of Jesus. Nothing different from what mainstream Christians do.
Neon, was Jesus "the Son" from eternity, according to traditional trinitarian belief?

Whenever I hear Christians talk about Jesus, I have to scratch my head and wonder what they're feeling when they describe that "he is the way." I haven't met many Christians who can succinctly define just what that means. At least JWs have a systematic and tangible devotion to Jesus/God.
i'm not excessively tall at just over 6 feet.
however, i must have been first in line when god was dishing out hands, feet and heads.
to date it hasn't been much of a problem except when i have to travel 25 miles to the nearest shoe shop to get a size 14 (uk).
Hey E-Man,
Remember a couple of years ago when I posted about my heart problem? I had mitral valve regurge. You said since it's the mitral valve it shouldn't be a problem.
Did you have an angiogram done? I had successful replacement surgery but I'm on Warfarin too, 10 mg a day. You have to watch your diet and certain medications also interfere with anticoagulants.
