Oscar Wilde Quote
by freeme inmost people are other people.
their thoughts are someone elses opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation.. oscar wilde.
as i read this i felt like this is a perfect description not only of "most people" but jw's in special:.

My "Moonie" experience the other day.
by Junction-Guy inok, this is a short experience that happened to me the other day.. .
i went to eat at a local chinese buffet.
i was sitting there eating my food, when a young chinese woman approaches my table carrying a metal briefcase, it looked like it was homemade and had pics of flowers on it.

Me, too. I think that's terrible that they let someone solicit the patrons while they're eating.

The 2 Witness Rule & Adultery
by minimus inisn't it interesting that the watchtower organization does not require 2 witnesses to prove an allegation of adultery.
if the elders, for example, believe a christian wife who says she's been cheated on, but her husband refuses to acknowledge this to anyone else but her, she can state in writing that her spouse committed adultery and she will be free to remarry if the elders simply believe her!.
yet, this same rule does not apply to pedophilia!.

It really sounds as if the whole 2 witness rule was written to protect pedophiles, doesn't it?

Right now I am reading Shattering the Sacred Myths. Evolutionary Metaphysics. It's very interesting and I recommend it.
This month I have read Jehovah Unmasked by Nathaniel J. Merritt. It was awesome and I would love to discus it with someone, but don't know anyone else who has read it.
I have also just finished Angels and Women by J. G. Smith. It was eh, ok.
I am reading a few pages each night before bed of the newest Harry Potter book. I love them.
I just got a parallel bible, and am trying to read a few pages of that every day, comparing the different translations
In my car I have The Mist-Filled Path by Frank Mac Eowen. I am always early to a fault everywhere, so I read in my car a lot. LOL.

"Thou shalt not complaineth when thine unbelieving husband doth beateth thou for my Name's sake.
Upon penalty of death, thou must not calleth the police, lest you bringeth
reproach upon Jehovah, the Most Highest and Supremest of Schizophrenics.
Insteadeth thou must taketh thine bruises and broken bones and goeth MORE unto Service.
Thou must always remembereth that "thou art one of the happiest people ineth the world"!
