being curious about why people do or act the way they.
do led me to this discussion.
I wanted something uniquely Australian. Witchetty grubs were considered a delicacy by the Aboriginal people and part of their diet thousands of years ago. Apparently has a chicken-like flavor. Here's a receipe:
Place a dozen fresh witchetty grubs in some oil and saute for a while, then add a litre of stock, some crumbled chicken cubes, some dried onions, native peppercorns, and a bit of salt. Let this cook for half an hour or so and then add some cream. Finish off with a flour paste to thicken
warning: some might find the descriptions here disturbing.
even though there is overwhelming evidence that jesus died on a cross and not an upright state, the organization still stubbornly clings to this feeble idea, siting of course, the ridiculous notion that, because the cross was a 'pagan symbol', jesus couldn't have died on it.
as if the romans gave a damn that the cross was pagan.
Mary great work/info, To think I once droned on in morbid detail about how Jesus died on a stake. As the Romans were pagan it's pretty obvious a cross would have been used! Witchettygrub
i was reading through the thread, "how good does if feel to you not attending meetings anymore?
" i realized something.
many of us got out between 5 and 6 years ago.
Bingo Lady Lee! Your first line here 'The information explosion on the internet became more accissible to people. JWs were searching at home and at work gathering whatever information they could. And they were beginning to see the holes.' The following 3 points you made are relevant for myself also. Witchettygrub

racing legend peter brock ... reported killed.
Hi Bigmouth (Pete)
You asked if he was a JW? No he wasn't. He had separated from his wife Bev of 28 years 12 months ago and was currently living with his new partner who was with him over in WA when the accident happened.
It's very sad on top of Steve Irwin earlier this week.

following on from sandy's thread on her brother's pt, i wondered exactly why does the wtbts take such an opposing stand to professional mental health treatment?
Garybuss take a bow for your posts. I had a deep belly chuckle at the first one.
More serious was your second one and the words 'I've seen my wife load up our babies in the car and head off to a meeting in a Dakota blizzard'. It brings to my mind the articles that have been in the Watchtower/Awake where people have crossed snake infested areas, flooded rivers or walked many miles in the one day and such like to attend at the KH. Almost as though they were in a trance like state.

very sad .
such an enthusiastic / passionate guy.. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/asia-pacific/5311298.stm.
Yeah, what a beaut bloke.
He loved life, the animal world. There was a re-run last night on the 'Enough Rope' abc television show with host Andrew Denton of how Steve met his wife and how he, in that very moment, knew that she was the one for him. He had such a gutsy attitude and a cheeky face.
It's a sad day for us Aussies today. We feel his loss very much.

i just got told what sex before marries is okay, as long it is not sex with the same sex, with a animal, or with some one, very close to your famelie.
or a widow.
if you wanna follow the bibel, .
Pallemar, Apparently sexual intercourse makes people married. I read in Genesis 24:67 whereby Rebekeh entered Isaacs tent and 'he took her'. In today's world, especially the JW world, this marriage would be considered 'common law' and just not on. Witchettygrub
i recently bought a high powered rifle and am presently buying a pistol for back-up.
i have a cross bow, a compound bow, and several swords and knives, in fact i have been collecting knives for some time and have learned how to use them in defending myself and in taking the initiative in learning to defend myself.
i am quite versed in using both the croww bow and the compound bow, it seems the goverment doesn't want to defend us and just wants to unarm us.
Hmmmm... I think I'll be going by Black Sheep's suggestion about the 'awesome, short range weapon' and keep a saw handy by the bedside. I'm heading over to Bunnings right now to get the latest. Oh, by the way I'm no granny. WG
what are some of your fav quotes from movies???.
i love the line in face off "oh eve i hate to see you go but i love to watch you leave".
and the one in the rock " you want me to stick this in my heart are you f#$%ing nuts".
'A Fish called Wanda' an oldie but hilarious as each scene is a classic.
Otto (Kevin Kline) steamrolled into the ground at end of movie by stuttery Ken (Michael Palin) in revenge.
Otto flattened - K-k-k-k-Ken.
Ken replies "You b...... Hey, I've lost my stutter. It's gone. I can speak. How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?"
and
Otto to Wendy his girlfriend - "Don't call me stupid"
Wendy in reply "Why not?"
This relationship can only be understood when movie viewed.
