Reborn, that was an absolutely brilliant post. I know that my wife and I will be voting Bush out of office. Don't forget all of the suspected terrorists that have disappeared under Bush's regime.....taken away to torture chambers. This president is the worst in history. Clinton makes more sense talking for 5 minutes than Bush has made his entire term.

Some People Stay Witnesses Because They Don't Want To Think For Themselves
by minimus ini've come to that conclusion.
some would rather not have to think about a position, a prophecy, a requirement or a belief.
they really would rather follow the dictates of leaders of an organization.

I believe this to be the case with an old friend that used to post here. She saw that it wasn't the truth, but thought it was too hard to make a stand. Oh well. Her loss. I'd rather be free.

Who has the best chance of defeating Bush in '04?
by badwillie ini will be backing former vermont gov howard dean to run in '04.
my reason: clinton was quoted recently as saying that "strong and wrong always beats weak and right".
i remember during the run up to election in 2000 watching the bush vs. gore debates and thinking..i know gore is smarter but he comes across as weaker in debate.

I found it ironic during the Anti War protests in Seattle, that the people holding No More Bush signs had accidentally become advocates of the gay rights movement.

Pacific Northwesterners! A little info please--we're moving out of Jersey
by ashitaka inhey,.
my wife and i have had it with this expensive gate to hell, and we're getting out of jersey.. so, how is it out there?

$6000 a year for car insurance? where in Jersey do you live? I lived right on the Philly border and it was only $1500 a year for two newish cars w/ full coverage....bad driving record? Philly area has one of the highest rates in the country, so i'm not sure that sounds accurate...
washington vs. pa....weather is nicer out here, not as much humidity. the taxes are more in your face, but the actual cost of living is much much less. No high energy bills, no yearly car inspection. the rent out here for apartments is nice, but houses cost alot more - your $200,000 house in PA or NJ would probably cost $300,000 or so out here. our car insurance is cheaper by about $200 a year, gas is a few cents higher....

on an intellectual level yes, but i have a woman boss and i absolutely hate it. too many mind games, i'd rather have someone just tell me straight out, which i find would usually come from a man.

The Daniel and Isaiah books were easily the funniest books to sit through at book study....it all seemed made up!
the various chapters in "your youth" directed at women were very funny, they really can't hide how sexist they are, can they?
a recent watchtower or awake that i just saw that bashed religions for asking for money and then in the 2nd article talked about the contribution arrangement. Nice!
an article from Christmas 2002 that said that JW's shouldn't have a rehearsed statement about Christmas so that they don't appear to be in a cult but then it goes on to tell them what to say....

while this forum questions some w.t.

sometimes the brainwashing is so deep, you don't even realize it. As an example of this, an old friend of mine who used to post here (Collegegirl) clearly saw certain things but really couldn't get around the fact that her friends / family would treat her differently. So she reverted back to "going through the motions". Unless you make a clear break, you will always be defending the corporation.
