Well, we could do it right here on one of the sub topics I guess and then every one could see it. Makes a whole lot of sense to me. Why do it anonymously? Then we would have someone to help keep track of the moves.
What do you all think of that?

PS - Stilla - I'l like white of course. Let's get the groundrules down about where we're going to play it and then we'll get started, what?
instead of making the difference known that anyone not a jehovah's witness is "worldly", i think we should simply refer to them as "normal".
INTEG - Whatever gave the WTBTS the right to call them "worldly" in the first place? And what is your authority to ask Minimus about his authority?

religious claims are commonly unverifiable.
everybody and anybody can claim that they : 1) are god's true people.
and 2) have god's exclusive favor.. however, various scientists around the world are testing the idea that prayer can heal.

Yeah, what Little Toe said that Metatron said.
Love is the most powerful, most irresistible force in the universe. All else is flim flam. The Virgin Mary, preaching door to door, saffron robes, secret underwear, being Methodical, being democratic, being anything other than a being of pure love is flim flam, of having the ego out of the way so that Divine love can flow through us onto others. Being like a window; a clean one which allows the light to flow through it, not from it, onto all who are inside - we then being like that mirror, being clean and clear and allowing the divine love to flow through us, not from us, onto all who chance to be in our sphere of love. God is love. Discovering how to do that is the greatest discovery a human being can make. And you don't need science to prove that. You can prove it, experience it, within your own being if you follow the two laws of The Master.

i was wondering if those in the jw organization would be in better or worse mental health than those who quit the organization?
any thoughts?
Wednesday, do you know the sourse of your lingering depression? There are some awfully good anti depression drugs out there today. Depression should be a thing of the past. Caveat: Effexor will make you gain weight. Celexa is good. Prozac didn't do anything for me; it was like taking aspirin. But there IS something for you.

So, it looks like it's me and stillajwexelder followed by the winner of that match and gambit.
Is that right everyone? And we will do it on PM? I have that right?

what do you consider to be the benefits for having an "innie?
"....an "outie?
" please explain.. fb
I personally like having an innie myself. I can lie on the sofa and keep salt in there to dip my carrot sticks in, celery stalks, and apple slices and whatnot. Very handy.
On my woman, I like the outie. It IS like a third nipple and sexy as hell.

after cheating on my atkins diet and going nuts at a local pizza joint... i'm back on track.
i also decided to take a closer look at some of the recipes at the back on the atkins diet book and found a wonderful soup recipe.
it is called beef vegetable soup, but don't let its simple name deceive you!
you know, you could almost compare the watchtower to tony robbins, with there constant motivating do more service, attend all meetings.
what will the watchtower be using to motivate the current members to keep this crap going ???.
what were the biggest motivating remarks you remember as a loyal jw ??
The JWs have yet to learn, after 120 years of considering themselves bible geniuses, that human beings cannot be motivated by the negative incentive, by exhorting you to love to not do this or that. The 10 commandments are just like that: Thou shalt NOT do this or that... And frankly, it's easy to tell what kind of people this Jehovah character is speaking to by the things they are exhorted not to do: Thou shalt not lust after thy neighbor's OX, fer chrissake - and a buncha other things that I wouldn't be interested in even if my neighbor had any.
The Master came along and turned the Bronze Age God's exhortions around and made of them positive rules that people could love: Love your God with a whole soul; love your neighbor as yourself; and the Master removed the onerous burden of THE LAW from off the backs of the people and made following God a lovable and happy thing to do. But of course along come the Pharisees and seeing Jesus watering down their power had him killed.
And today any in the congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses who point the finger at the elders, today's version of yesterday's Pharisees, are immediately called apostate because these crooked men don't want to loose any authority over today's "flock". Lucky for us, we realized long ago that we don't need no stinking elders to gain God's approval, and we don't need no stinking governing body either. And that's what these bastards can't stand. WE DON'T NEED YOU, YOU HYPOCRITES. Go somewhere and jerk off, that's all the fun you're allowed today. And, BTW, we're going to roast your asses for screwing little boys and girls. Stand by. We have the law on our side. You don't have bupkiss.

yes this is one of the most tasty spices!
it puts a bountyful flavour to your rice and makes it most enjoyable!
description---its stem is slender and branched, rarely exceeding 1 foot in height and somewhat angular.
I likes to start with a gallon of the juice of sour oranges. To which add a cup of cumin, one of fresh finely chopped garlic, one of tumeric, one half of pepper corns, one half of sea salt, a cup of white table wine, one large sweet chopped onion. Store in a glass container with a plastic lid or wax paper with rubber band keeping it tight.
This is the 100 year old recipe, from the Basque region of Spain, through the Canary Islands and Cuba to Miami for a Mojo marinade sauce for pork, especially for boston butt. Use one cup of the above after it has had a month to manarinate itself to cover a boston butt cut into fist sized chunks. Allow to marinate the pork for a couple of hours and then add a cup of water. Put all this into a heavy pot, cover, put on top of stove and turn stove to "suffer" and leave it there until the pork pulls apart. Serve with your favorite sides. Care should be used as this stuff is highly addictive.
