  muslims worry about south park while THIS is going on?!?!

  by chickpea in

  last night frontline (pbs) aired a documentary called.

  "the dancing boys of afghanistan".

  a euphemism for a sex slave/pederastic business that.

  About the south park issue, many muslims and myself find it offensive when they might mock or belittle any of the prophets, including Jesus, Moses, or Abraham, etc...

  Being offended about depictions of Muhammed is one thing. But being so offended as to threaten violence against the South Park guys just crosses the line. See, I know these radical jerkoffs don't compromise the majority of Muslims at all, but they get all the attention because it seems these guys have nothing more to do in life than to hate everyone else who isn't like them. I see it mainly as a problem of control--there's no equivalent of the Pope in Islam to say, "Well that's not right" and denounce these things. It's a shame that people who don't factor into my daily life at all can affect the things I enjoy simply by being thugs.

  I think Islam needs to do some serious housekeeping.

  if the watchtower now does not require jws to fill out time reports and monitor field service activity, do you think jws will be happy with that new adjustment?

  Lowbies and other slackers--they'd be relieved. Pioneers would be pissed, understandably. But it would never happen.

  How I obtained my personal files from Bethel

  by jwfacts in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  it has taken me a long time, but i have finally put together an article outlining how i used the law to force bethel to send me my personal files.

  it is a very long article full of scans, so i have linked to it at http://jwfacts.com/watchtower/experiences/personal-files-privacy-act-1988.php.

  in brief, in 2006 i requested that bethel send me my files on the basis that the australian privacy act 1988 entitles people to receive a copy of any information a corporation holds about them.

  This is an important thread. I'll mark it because this is the smoking gun which proves that if they don't have any dirt on you, they'll figure out ways to get some. Secondly, their intrusive fascination with personal beliefs and habits is repulsive.

  Most Annoying Things That Happen At JW Meetings

  by LittleSister in

  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'll give the designer credit: that's great work. The subject matter I don't agree with, but I'll give credit where credit's due.

  ^ Wow sirnose586, you summed it up pretty well there!

  It's the same thing every year. In fact, take out my point about the "reject Jesus party" and you've got the essential outline for most talks.

  I don't have the outline for the talk, but I can guess: Thanks for joining our reject Jesus party, the world is terrible, please join our cult congregation.

  What is the effect of something growing a certain percentage rate over time?

  this is one of the most important concepts you could ever grasp.

  unfortunately humans do not naturally understand this idea, so we need to throw in a bit of simple math to help us understand.. below is a series of videos that will help you understand.

  yes, these are extraordinarily boring, but you will be a much better person for watching them.. .

  Now I think the interesting thing to see will be how world leaders make these population control methods (war, disease, etc.) national policy. I have a hunch that those in power (be they public or private) know the crisis is unfolding and will take steps to start population control.
