  Astonishing decline of Christianity in Britain

  by slimboyfat in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  well the results of the english church census for 2005 have just recently been published by peter brierley in a book called pulling out of the nose dive.

  it shows that church attendance in england continues to decline at an amazing rate.

  first i will just give the bottom line figures, then i will add some other interesting facts and figures.

  That's a shame...the number one indicator for charitable giving is if one is a regular attender of Church ;) not kingdom halls though
  
  Willyoman, its not just ex-dubs who'd like to see the WT crash and burn ;)
  
  I'd like to know the figures on Scientology in Britain Slimboy :)
  
  And Kaballah come to think of it
  
  
  thanks!

  Well done JWfacts! It's so clear to see when its side by side.
  
  
  Mormonism to me is so shockingly absurd you wonder how anyone was ever taken in by it. The Watchtower is ever so much more subtle, save the blaring failed prophecies that, um, didn't happen. But, its like, ok, America had....Jews...2000 years ago??? It's embarassing. Joseph Smith was either absolutely coked out crazy, or he was visited by an "angel" who was out for laughs. Who could have thought that it would have 12 mil. members???!!!
  
  And look up the facts about the "Book of Abraham" it is reealllly quite funny.
  
  It is a cult. My area is positively saturated with Mormons, the Mormon church that is RIGHT next to the school literally has three services on Sunday and they are absolutley packed.
  
  I remember the Mormons in my grade having to get up every morning so early to be at the church at 5:AM before school! I always wondered about that before I knew it was a cult.
  
  Also, the school is pretty much run by them, a high degree of nepotism for underqualified employees happening.
  
  
  Mormonism is flat out stupid. And I have the facts to back that up :)

  What is your favorite way to cook food?...OUTLAW
  
  
  I love to cook, and this question sparks my intrigue.
  
  I know this, I love to eat food that has been fried in one way or another. Particularly deep fried. So, I am thinking I would love to cook with a deep fryer, it is on my wish list. You know all those things in the store that seem impossible to make at home...like donuts, that's what I want to make.
  
  I like to make really complicated baked things.
  
  I'd really like to have a commercial kitchen for domestic use.
  
  I cannot IMAGINE doing what you doing and cooking all the time on a grill!! I mean, I like to cook, but get too hungry and have to use the microwave alot too. Or just eat cereal.
  
  Its darn cold where you are Outlaw....is it snowy too?

  Well, Ok, on the news today I get what's going on a little better.
  
  It's so funny it rarely snows on the Western side of Washington it seems to me, and to see how slick the roads got and the people sliding off or pulling their car over because they just can't drive in it... yeah, good thing school was cancelled.
  
  I guess maybe over here in Eastern Washington we're more used to it, and the DOT seems to be better prepared perhaps with sand/plows/ de-icers.
  
  Mulan, I would love to see any pictures of Seattle you'd be willing to post :)
  
  I really want banana, flattened from Trader Joes right now if you'd like to send me some :)

  Wow, Mulan, Seattle is having some crazy weather right now isn't it?
  
  
  It's a bit funny to me though that the schools in Seattle will close for that much snow, when over here on the eastside of the state it's snowed 6-8 inches at least, is 10 degrees outside today, and I'm certain the schools have not closed for even one day of it.
  
  Last year when I would drive my brother and sister to school from time to time, it was so slick that the Jeep Grand with 4x4 would crazy slip all over the place. It was snow on top of ice. No school cancellations though!!! So brilliant!!! I get quite pissed off about it.
  
  anyways, I wish I was in Seattle right now, I really miss it. Snoqualmie seems a little treacherous at the moment though :)

  NAFTA Super Highway!!!

  by skyking in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  nafta super highway quietly but systematically, the bush administration is advancing the plan to build a huge nafta super highway, four football-fields-wide, through the heart of the u.s. along interstate 35, from the mexican border at laredo, tex., to the canadian border north of duluth, minn. trucks will cross border at the borders in fast lanes, checked only electronically by the new sentri system.

  the american public is largely asleep to this key piece of the coming north american union that government planners in the new trilateral region of united states, canada and mexico are about to drive into reality.

  the planned nafta super highway would radically reconfigure not only the physical landscape of these united states, but our political and economic landscapes as well.

  Well,,,we've gotta make it easier to dump heavily subsidized american corn on the Mexican market *rolls eyes*
  
  I don't think this could possibly happen without it being broadcast by a major news organization...we shall see. There are smaller highways that will cause properties to be bought out, the property in Idaho is probably not succumbing to this grandiose unrealistic superhighway non-project.

  It's amazing to me how entitled the "brothers and sisters" feel themselves to be. As in, what is your business is their business, as if they have a right to know everything you do and the reasons you do it. Especially when they haven't been IN your life for a long period of time... and you probably don't even know them very well.
  
  It's gross.
  
  You handled it well. They're probably gonna try and stuff you in the penalty box as a result of your contraband window adhesives though.
