i have noticed there is some debate on this board about russell and whether he was a mason or not.
some say he is a part of a conspiracy others say it is nonesence.. i am, to be quite honest, not sure where i fit in this.
i do find it interesting that russell is buried under a pyramid in the masonic section of a grave yard.
LittleToe, what about:

All tied to the Masonry for using the crown-and-cross thingy?
you know the situation...a fighter can be in the ascendency...well ahead...have his opponent on the ropes.
but can he put his opponent away?
does he have the ko punch?
Is it me or is there a pattern here:
- JW's waiting for the big-A, expecting it real soon now, just around the next corner: "You see the world situation? War, famine, crime, immorality? *REAL* soon now!"
- Ex-JW's waiting for the WTBS demise, expecting it real soon now, just after the next 'big' exposure: "You see the WTBS situation? Corrupt elders, slave becoming extinct, pedophiles, in bed w/ UN? *REAL* soon now!"
Personally I'm convinced there's no punch that will globally hurt the JW-institution. I agree w/ OpenMinded: time is probably one of their worst enemies.

the words ring so true with those changes in defining the intransigence of the wts, though:.
"we muslimsjehovah's witnesses cannot keep blaming the west satan the devil for all our ills...the embarrassment of wretchedness among us is beyond repair.

>Are you hiding from the Taliban, Fark? :-))
Mmm, I always understood that as a reference to Mutiny on the Bounty and the figure of Fletcher Christian...
when i started associating in the late 1960s the jws were very sociable and had frequent fun events.
here are some examples of the kinds of events we enjoyed, why they existed, and then the reason they were taken away:.
sports: being involved in school or professional sports was frowned upon, so the brothers in the hall would arrange for sports for every other weekend.
Chess: Many brothers enjoyed Chess. This seemed like a nice safe thing to do and it kept the group small. Several brothers enjoyed playing Chess with me because I could beat them all most of the time. Crackdown: Chess was seen as a game of war and could incite JWs to become enemies, learning the ways of war. So it too became frowned upon. But, I still played chess anyway.
One very holier-than-thou elder who loved chess too much to frown upon it, however, he made the effort to cut away the crosses on top of his wooden king-pieces. I always chuckled when we now and then played a game at his and I again noticed his mutilated kings...
i remember this article from when it came out; found it whilst looking for info on low frequency sound, it's very interesting, but was ignored by-and-large by the spook community as it's less rimantic than dead grandpa's.. .

But Mormons, well, Elohi, or whatever, is on his planet with lots of wives, making spirit babies that come to Earth, and if you're a good moron (whoops... my spelling... ) you'll get your own planet and harem. I really don't think I have to GIVE my opinion of how STUPID that is.
I can't suppress an ear-to-ear smile when I am sometimes reminded to the fact that their most prominent archangel is called MORONI. I kid you not!

ummmm what am i up to now?
its ok, i'm just being mischievious.. so graham norton was on channel four this evening in japan, what a very peculiar race!!.
which countries do you think that you could not visit for knowing that when you were there, you'd just fool about laughing at the absurdity of the culture and why?
The question goes two ways, which religions or faiths besides the JW's do you find ridiculous to the extreme and why?
Ummm... have a look. Today it was in the news that some of the Dutch adherents have resigned their jobs, sold their houses, all in expectance of the Rapture. This year that is.

Pretty well bonkers As to the why? Well it reminds me of something I experienced myself at close range.
