Hey Ozzie,
Things are great! Glad to hear you're back from your time away. I definitely think we should meet up for some pizza at 'The Restaurant'. When are you and Mrs Ozzie up for it?
I've been working hard on the business and things are going well, plus I've moved house. I'd rather tell you all about it over a pizza though. Hope you got lots of pics.
Cheers, DK

Damn! Australian soccer is in a deppressing state at the moment!
Ozzie it's great to see your optimism, but I'm afraid englishman is right... Especially considering the way Leeds(Kewell,Viduka) have been performing. Also consider the fact that the australian team hasn't been playing together lately whereas england has been involved in various games a international level. We need a new coach... I nominate Johnny Warren. The guy's a legend!
But then again, it's only a friendly so you never know...
Cheers, DK

the bible contradicts itself in the matter of punishing children for the sins of their fathers.
in one place is says that it is strictly forbidden, but in another the lord speaks of slaughtering sons for the sins of their forefathers, and in yet another place the lord orders the murder of suckling babes.
JT, you da man!
LOVE your style!!

what could amaze old ozzie?
that so many we knew for so long within dubdom are now living happy lives in freedom.
the common experience is seeing the borg "caught out" on one thing, and then, bingo!
Hey Ozzie!
I shoulda guessed you would've put this post up after our late evening dinner last night. It was definetely great to see you and Mrs Ozzie. My other half thought the two of you were just wonderful! And the pizza was fantastic!!
It's funny how people leave the Watchtower and are then surprised to see that life is even more wonderful outside than from within the cult. It's definitely got to do with the years of conditioning that we have to grow through. Especially us that were brought up within the confines of the watchtower. Everything I was told about the real world had a negative spin on it. Well I am SO THRILLED THAT I AM OUT and living a life that's positive and fulfilling.
Well I'm off, talk to ya'll later.
And again... on behalf of myself and my girl, thanks for the wonderful evening ozzie!!
Cheers

i think that i read somewhere that jws believe that the magi who followed the star were 'evil' .
is that the case - if so how did they figure that?
paduan
Somebody correct me if I'm wrong,
But basically the JW's believe that the Magi were astrologers and since they believe that astrology is satanic they believe that the magi were being lead and misguided by satan.

47 for me folks.. :)
i was reading through some old quotes at the quotes.jehovahswitnesses.com site, and had something of an epiphany.
it is simultaneously revealing and revolting, and i'd like to share it.. what the society expects of its members.
the society expects its members to live and *die* for their teachings [yes, everyone here knows it - the society expects you do die for their teachings if necessary].. and, at the same time as you lie there dying for their beliefs, expects you to accept (?joyfully?
Since when did being rational matter to the watchtower.
Forget about rationality, logic, common sense. The watchtower's focus is on obediance, humility and submission. It's just satanic to think outside of the watchtower.
What kills me is that if you ask any dub whether they are open minded and they will answer 'yes' convincingly. And at the same time they are the "masters of ignorance." Whenever they come across an issue which is irrelevant to the watchtower's agenda or one that doesn't have a simple answer which the watchtower has already addressed, they dismiss it as not important and just turn a blind eye to the whole matter.
