  A Russian finally told me the European Secret

  by Amazing in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i would love to travel to europe some day.

  i have worked with and been friends with many from europe, asia, south america, africa and the middle east for the last 25 years.

  of all these people only the europeans have ever suggested that they can pick an american out of a crowd ... they seem to know us no matter how much we may share the same ethnic background.. i have asked europeans and others may times just how it is they can spot an american, even when we have not spoken.

  When I was in Europe my friend told me you could always identify:

  a German woman because they have the worst haircuts ("like they got their hair cut in a Butcher shop")

  Italian women because they all were dying their hair awful shades of red (X-files had just become popular in Italy)- I will say there WAS an abundance of bottled redheads in Italy

  Japanese Women: "the Japanese are the only ones who take the gondola rides in Venice"

  And Americans...: "white sneakers"

  (I know, that was it about Americans. She let us off easy)

  Well, they don't have to cremate you to dump you the woods so if that's where I end up, either bodily or dustily, then I want to come back from the grave to haunt my cheap arse relatives who didn't get me a real headstone!

  While Jehovah's Witnesses are one example of religions that discourage
  blood transfusions, the mother named in the Omaha lawsuit is not a
  Jehovah's Witness.

  Well, she certainly won't be a Jehovah's Witness if she allows her child to have blood...

  aw, but I know that'd not what they meant.

  why am I so excited about this?

  Because it's an easy excuse to bump this thread. C'mon folks, it's time to reach the laypeople! (which technically, I am, I guess!)

  10/1/2003 WT: Does God Really Care? Well, DOES HE???

  by Funchback in

  some highlights...

  ' there are two photos: 1) a silhouette of a soldier laying flat on his stomach pointing an automatic weapon and 2) a colorless photo of at least 17 children pressed up against barbed-wire in (i assume) a nazi concentration camp.

  this cover would lead a person to conclude that god really does not care.

  To Live 1,000 Years in JW Paradise

  by Amazing in

  2. friends

  would you really want to live in jw paradise?

  armageddon has just ended ... the dust is settling ... you discover you are still alive ... and with that you see millions of dead bodies all about you (some big city like london, rome, paris) ... then you see a few others walking around ... you get up and rush to them to find out what they are doing ... they are fellow jws who survived armageddon, just like you .... .

  more and more gather until there are a few hundred in your area.
