Thanks for posting this. We had cars that lacked seatbelts, my mom's doc told her to drink a glass of wine every night when pregnant with me. Nice post.

they took aspirin, ate blue cheese dressing, tuna from a can, and didn't get tested for diabetes.. .
then after that trauma, our baby cribs were covered with bright colored lead-based paints.. .

Thanks for posting that statement, GJW. Amazing how they can celebrate young people who died from refusing blood in an Awake magazine and yet feign sorrow for this woman's death. C'mon Watchtower, if you so afraid of the big bad beast and the media and spoke the truth, you're HAPPY she died "faithful." Where in the statement is any mention of Jesus' and his promise of resurrection? It's obvious to me they in their heart of hearts don't believe that crap either. Edited to add: I sent an email to the address provided in the statement: Where in your Statement Regarding the Death of a Mother in Landau/Isar do you mention this sister's resurrection hope? How can you celebrate the deaths of youths in a '94 Awake! and then put forth your feigned sorrow for this woman's death? Who do you consider more powerful, the "Superior Authorities" as NOW understood by your religion, or Jehovah God? This is just another example of why the mass exodus from Watchtowerism is occurring and why most thinking people can see right through your insipid and immoral religion.

In a purely fantastical situation, I'd love to hook up any GB member (preferably a younger one) to a IV of blood, slice his wrists, and say all you gotta do to live is press this button and receive blood and live. And I won't tell anyone.

Six Feet Under on HBO
by Cygnus inany thoughts on the finale?.
like many have said, it was a sad ending, the last 5 minutes they showed everybody grow old and die.
ruth of course went first and george was a mess.

I'm surprised at the lack of comments. Maybe none of you watched this show. Caty and I watched it religiously., the only show that was 'must see TV' for us. Themes of death, betrayal, self-doubt and pity, especially coming from our background... well I would have thought there'd be a few fans here. The HBO DB is just full of people speculating on plot lines and trying to fill in holes. I was hoping for a more deeper conversation.

This is pathetic. It's the year 2005 for god's sakes. There's no reason why any woman should die giving birth. I hope either that kid grows up to be a world leader who fights against religions like JWs, or kills the damn Nazis that enforced her mother's "conviction" to die.

YOU'RE ALL GOING TO DIE!
by Gill inwell, today i began to think there really was no point in trying to argue a point in a reasonable reasoning way with a jw, after all, there's non so blind as those who will not see.. i saw my, mother, again and we had a humungous scrap on the wtbts.
she wanted to know if i expected her to return to the rcatholic church as that's the religion she originated in.
she told me how she had been badly beaten by the nuns and that on one occasion when she had missed class and gone to the cinema instead she had received such a severe clobbering that she could barely sit down for a week.

The title of your post is right, we are all going to die. But some people I think are better served dying with faith that Jesus/Abuwabu/Whoever will make their life meaningful. That's all any of us really want. JWs think they found it, it's tangible, you can grasp it and hold it close forever. It won't happen and sometimes I want to shake some JWs I know and say YOU DON'T HAVE MUCH TIME LEFT, WHO KNOWS HOW LONG ANY OF US HAVE. Sorry, I'm just in a sad mood today.

People you love, you care about or care for, things to do with your life, responsibilities. DON'T WASTE ANY TIME. Do them. Fuck up as little as possible. Accept the love of others, and cry your eyes out when you're somewhere between ecstatic and painfully helpless.
Live as people like joelbear, AlanF, Pope John Paul -- people with emotion, conviction, and love of truth, whatever it is for them.
