I love Doomsday Preppers. It's one of my guilty pleasures, along with Ghost Hunters. There's a fine line between being prepared and being paranoid. Some of the end of the world scenarios they prepare for on the show are so miniscule in possibility.

Preppers and prepping.... thoughts?
by EntirelyPossible inwhat do you guys think of preppers?
i have been watching doomsday preppers on natgeo (it's just a trainwreck, i can't stop watching) and while those guys are a joke, i think have a few weeks worth of supplies and water on had is a good idea (tornadoes, hurricane, freak snow/ice storm, etc.).
however, prepping years worth of food, 5000 rounds of ammo per gun, building a fortified bunker.... what for?

Oh sure, it's great news now. But what happens in a thousand years when I awaken from my cryogenic sleep?

Did you ever have to walk out of/shut off a movie when watching with JWs?
by keyser soze ini can only recall one occasion.
it was when my brother and future wife were dating.
they had dinner at my parents' house, along with her uber-zealous/borderline psychotic parents.

We watched A River Runs Through It after supper, because it seemed like a pretty safe choice. We had to shut it off after the scene in which they showed a couple sunbathing, with their bare asses showing. This was too much for her mom. Even before that she was put off by all the drinking and smoking by Brad Pitt's character .

Since Fluff is Allowed (and Often Preferable): Stupid, Asinine, Gross, Ridiculous, and other "Bad" Commercials?
by AGuest infor me, it's a "liquid plum'r deep impact" commercial that just sets my teeth on edge.
in it, the (mousey looking) "housewifey" woman (who is obviously married to an impotent tyrant and has about 8 kids) is in the grocery store, holding a bottle of the product, while fantasizing about the two guys who come to "snake the drain" and "flush the pipe, baby"... to a barry white-ish voice narration.
now, i have no problem with some woman fantasizing about some hunks... and given the success of the romance novel industry i would be a fool to think bored housewives are among these.

They were when I was still in. But after three straight months of not reporting time, they were put on the inactive list, and not included. I don't know if that's still the case.

I would have began researching the religion long before I did. I wasted almost 10 years(most of my twenties) trying to reconcile the doubts I was having with the belief that the problem was with me, not with the "the truth".

How does the WT feel about dating methods?
by Christ Alone ini'm talking about dating methods that scientists use such as carbon 14, potassium-argon, rehydoxylation dating, etc.... .
i know that many christian fundamentalist groups speak of how false early dates can be reached by many of these dating systems.
but i was wondering how much the wt rejects them.

keyser soze
That would depend on whether the dating method used supported or refuted whatever the point was the WT was trying to make.
You beat me to it. It's only reliable if it doesn't contradict what they're teaching.
