About "dawg" and growth...
by changeling ini only checked in here briefley yesterday and missed dawg's "good-by" thread.
i posted there just now, but don't know if he is checking in any longer.. many of you realize he and i have had our differences.
in fact, is was after a "cyber-fight" with me that he left the last time.. when he returned, he pm'd me several times just making nice, brief little comments on things i'd post.

The human mind-no one is a coward
by dawg inmany of you will be happy to hear that this is my departure from this forum for awhile... i need to wean myself off it, get in shape and record my album... i'll post a link when it comes out.
that said, merry christmas and happy new year to you all.
i've had fun here on this site, almost all of you to a person are intelligent and well meaning.... i remember as a youth, i was a hard core jw, mostly becasue i thought i was doing what was right; as time went on and things didn't add up, i started doing as the bible tells me to do in 1 thess.

bye dawg - hope you do come back to visit. Personally I'm a bit of a plodder, very very cautious and I really appreciate being given a nudge every now and then from those of you who are 'sons of thunder' . Please don't underestimate the effects of the 'in your face' style of doing things.

Gentlemen, Ladies and Muslims!!!!
by Gill ina very good friend of mine is in charge of plant maintenance at a local factory.
there are 300 people working in this factory and two of them are muslims.
the muslims have requested that they require special toilets just for themselves.

Quietlyleaving - And I would say you are probably right!
If everyone were to be well educated, intelligent, capable of critical thinking etc, where would the politicians and upper echelons of society get their 'drones' from to do their dirty work!
well they're gonna have to learn to do it themselves . then perhaps they'll have less time to reinforce their own ideas about us.

Gill, I'll bet they never suffered from piles in those days!
I would argue that politicans can use religion for their own agenda and hold civilzations back.

Gill your post reminds me of an interesting tour of the British museum's enlightenment department that we attended recently.
The tutor made an interesting comment after showing us all the artefacts that map our journey from the dark ages to our technological age. He said it took the West hundreds of years to get to where we are now (remember how slops were thrown out the window and old castles where the toilet was basically a hole leading to a moat ) and perhaps the more non-technological backward people of today won't need go through that long process and will will make the jump fairly quickly.
We have the tools, we have the resources - progress will follow faster in our day.
