  Hey SBC - Do you actually watch a whole movie on your phone? I just got the Droid Razr Maxx and I noticed the Netflix App was already there, I just can't imagine watching a 90 minute movie on a four inch screen.

  If she let's you enjoy your food without giving a lecture then there should be no problem, everytime you eat something that she doesn't and she gives you the screwface or starts lecturing you about that's not good and all that, then that's a problem.

  It's like eating Sushi with people who don't like it, I love it, folks I hang out with don't, I've heard the "ooohh, that's disgusting, how can you eat that" one too many times already.

  i would have never believed the book i am reading...."the magic & the madness" about micheal jackson .

  by j.randy taraborrelli.... what a bunch of hypocrites they were except micheal.... even the mother ( every one that knew her said she was wonderful) but she did birthdays ,expensive presents.

  she was divorced from joe( who treated the kids so badly) it tells what kind of a jw he was.

  I have to say though that although the Jackson family had all that money, the mother's birthday and Christmas gifts were just a bit more fabulous than those families that used to celebrate in the congregations that we're accustomed to. I do know of a certain family that had Bday celebrations and invited other JWs, I guess they were all part of the inner circle, and they supposedly thought know one else knew, yeah right.

  Can Satan enter your mind if you stop thinking?

  by God_Delusion in

  2. beliefs

  as a kid, my brilliant pioneering mother told me that if i stopped thinking, satan and his demons could enter my mind.

  am i the only one that was told this useless drivel?

  is there a watchtower article that sort of backs this up?.

  Is it an old saying or a scripture that says "an idol mind is the Devil's workshop"

  Huffington post comments still going strong on JW Case

  getting all the usual apologist nonsense and people who have little understanding of the case or the way the society works.

  it is good that the comments are still going though and there is sanity occasionally.

  I made a few comments on the story at HP this weekend, got quite a few likes and some comments, Some Dub named Debra Martinez called herself defending the JWs with her cultish answers but she finally bowed out on Sunday. Realized she couldn't handle "the truth".

  CAN EVERYONE DO ME A FAVOUR?

  i haven't been on here much lately, but i read barb anderson's report on the court case in california the other day.

  nice to see the borg finally getting what they deserve.. anyway, the daily mail has done a story about it and at the end you can give your comments.

  i think there are a number of 'faithful witlesses' on there who are giving the "thumbs down" to any negative comments about the borg, including mine.

  Writing an Op-Ed Post for the New York Times

  by Band on the Run in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i posted on another thread that the ap report in the nyt was disappinting.

  my thought is to write to the ombudsman or at least an editor.

  the article was a joke when held against standard nyt reporting.. so many issues are raised that are applicable to all religions and wider societal concerns.

  Two things about the article, I knew about it through my Google Alerts for the JWs. I can't find it on their homepage, have to do a search for it.

  Other thing is for some reason the article isn't open for comments like most of their other articles are.
