I don't think Big Macs are good. But every once in a while I had a craving.
Not any more. {{{shiver}}} All I have to do is think of pink good.
In and Out baby.

Jesus Was but not IS Michael!
by free thought into honor the son is to honor the father.. i am a practicing jw who i believe is of the heavenly calling.
this post is not to criticize wts but to open honest discussion among mature followers of christ.. there has been much controversy around the wts doctrine regarding the arch angel michael.
as many are aware, wts believe that jesus in his pre-human existence was michael , gods first born.

Oh that's rich!
Problem is JW's would completely miss the point. They would see this person at her wits end as crazy, but arrogantly see themselves as persecuted for doing the lord's work in these "last days" (TM). They have a god given mission; logic, reason, respect for others does not factor in.
Bravo to this lady though!

You can get DF'd for anything..."going against counsel" (one of my favorites).
A friend of mine, pioneer, struggled with a relationship with a nonJW. She went to the elders, (sigh), they told her not to see him of course. She did see him again, NO SEX mind you, the sister is still pure, but she went back for more counseling...they DF'd her for going against counsel. They wanted to make her an example, which they did..."never go to the elders for counseling" is the example that was produced. She carried a heavier burden because she was a young pioneer, looked up to in the congo...what would others say? Bringing reproach on Jah's name, blah blah blah...
Ok, so what's infuriating...is everything about Kelle Jarka brings "reproach on Jah's name" , and to the CCoJW. But no action in this case. It's wild.

Nice BOTR!
I'm just listening to this podcast at work, my normal.
So easy to ignore history...well at least I did as a JW and I see the same in the fundie world. It wasn't necessary, all I had to do was "believe"...sigh.

Terry Gross plays a clip from Monty Python and Mel Brooks, then says, "there isn't going to be anything else funny in this program."
