Sounds like Eunice and her boyfriend from the Children's book come to life again. I think they should be very old or dead by now.
lol
hello friends... just found out that at the recent one day assembly they are now really discouraging people from getting married!!!!!
they will lose young ones like crazy if they start telling them that they cannot get married...what are these sexually frusterated young people to do??
you cannot masterbate, you cannot have sex outside of marriage (not that i would encourage it either, but...), now you cannot even get married?????

today i was remembering how angry i used to get at the meetings and all the little irritations that in the end would just make my blood boil these included:.
prayers that go on foreverstudy or wt conductors still taking comments when its clear that the point has been covered 20 times alreadymeetings over running by more than 5 minsmy favourite was this one elder who would play guess the point i am thinking of.
he would keep rephrasing the question from the wt until someone would bring up the point he was thinking of.
I HATED WT comments that just repeated the paragraph. It insulted my intelligence to just regurgitate some basic sentences that were written for a fifth grader! I refused.
Even worse is when I did answer (because my wife pressured me) people would say "I enjoyed your comment". What did you enjoy? I just repeated what was written in the paragraph.
I agree, I stopped answering completely because of this,
It was way to much of an insult to my intelligence.
was reminiscing with a friend on facebook about our past and the thread concerning windows 7 got me thinking about the hours i spent writing programs for my trash 80 computer.
any other nerds like me who miss the old hardware?.
or does anyone miss anything from their younger days (not necessarily computers)?.
This was my first, I bought it used, I think it was 1988.
Having 2 disk drives rocked!
The first time i bought quicken software was for this computer.
Still remember how long it took to scroll down to the next page..............................................................
I loved it.
this is a tangent from another thread where angry responses to jws was a side-topic.. my opinion is that it is important to remember that the rank and file jw is a victim of the cult and that focusing our anger on any of them individually is doing them a disservice for two reasons:.
1. their behavior, thoughts, and feelings are not their own and are only informed by the borg.
it isn't just or appropriate to attack those who are victims just like many of us were.. 2. opposition, especially angry opposition, reinforces the false information that the borg has indoctrinated in them: that one of the proofs they have "the truth" is that they are persecuted.
Excellant post Millions,
Well said.
back to the god and godzilla difference:.
"some worshipers at a catholic church in oklahoma are outraged over a. crucifix hanging above the main altar that they say shows an image of.
genitalia on jesus, the oklahoman reports.".
He IS a perfect man!
this "news" is months late and i post it now simply because i don't want to let the moment slip by.
these are direct quotes from david pesch at the edmonton 2009 "keep on the watch" district convention.
they were startling enough for me to make notes verbatim.
I swear such grim prophecies stunt people.
Does it ever...... they never take resposibility for their own lives, their just waitin for god to wipe the slate clean.
were they all foreign women?
it seems to be contradictory too, because they weren't to have marriage alliances with other nations.
but, i guess using the woman as a sex slave and baby making machine was okay.
Apologists will say that God allowed it because the people would have it no other way. So God 'caved' in this resepct for the good of the nation I guess.
This is the explanation i have heard. An apologists used this excuse on a recent thread dealing with the israelites wiping out entire tribes but saving the virgin girls to keep as wives.
When god is on your side you can justify ANY behavior.
many of us have drifted.
we know it isn't the truth but we might not have officially resigned as jws.
many catholics are nominal catholics and they are not shunned or avoided because of their not going to church or confession.. would you remain a jw if the organization didn't punish you for your inactivity?.
What would be the point?
hahaha
don't argue with me, argue with them.. judge dread .
Is Casper a celebrity?
I know his story.
