  I'm 55 pages into C of C

  amazed, dumbfounded, flabbergasted are adjectives that only begin to describe my emotions as i learn about the inner workings of the borg during ray's time.

  the flip-flops on oral sex (as if it was any of their business to begin with), are simply...i can't even say it - unbelievable.

  the sheer cold arrogance of it all.

  John 3:16 and Matthew 24:45

  by DanTheMan in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i recently did a search of all wt publications on my 1995 wt cd-rom for these two scriptures.

  which did you think had more hits?

  1082 for matthew 24:45 vs. 723 for john 3:16. it just struck me funny how the wt puts way more emphasis on their "authority" scripture than they do the scripture that clearly should be the most important scripture of all for christians.

  a thought on porn & forn

  people who are only recent ex-dubs, or who are still attending the miserable meetings, how much have we heard over the past few years about the dangers of porn on the internet, how so many are falling into sexual sin (the wts are repressed prudes if ever there were -).

  well, here's my story - in 1997 (my fourth year as a baptized dub) i got a computer with internet access.

  it didn't take me long to find the porn sites.

  what an ignorant, needy, uncritical follower i was.

  my catholic mom couldn't refute what i was telling her about trinity & hellfire, so i thought i had found the truth.

  what i had found was a hell i wouldn't wish upon anyone.
