  what is the name of that song

  by Lease in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i cant even think of the lyrics because of another song in my mind.. the guy stutters in the song a little bit.. i remember hearing from a dj on the radio that this guy really did have a stuttering problem, and as a joke he sang the song, the group was surprised when the song was a hit.. however, when i told my friend this story, he said it was all false.. now that i want to do research on the computer about this song.....neither of us can remember it!.

  anyone...anyone?.

  even if you dont know the name....just a lyric from it.. thanks.

  "Pay Attention to Yourselves and to all the Flock"

  by Cthulhu in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have been following a number of threads here periodically and have decided to join so as to contribute.

  i was wondering if any of you would have any idea as to the value of the book mentioned in the title of this thread "pay attention to yourselves and to all the flock," the elusive elders manual.

  you see, my grandfather died recently and, unbeknownst to "the others" i managed to obtain said book before anyone else could.

  There is a group that does periodic trash patrol on some nearby lakes. I hate it when you see this crap, esp. by kayak...so although it is a tough job, i am going next time. People who care about such things are high caliber in my book, and nature loving chicks are above average hot btw......oompa

  how can i slove this arguement?

  by highdose in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  a freind of mine reckons that the ultimate in intelligence is to be "serious", never to have any fun, never anything "lowbrow", always watch serious tv programs, always read serious books, disscuss serious subjects etc.. and this means... if you are not "serious" in this manner then you simply cannot have any brains??!!.

  i know this must be wrong... but i can't figure out why...?.

  highdose, i say he needs to drink with you until he can slove this prob on his own...lol

  I would ask him where is the evidence of his point? There is no EVIDENCE either way, as that is just his opinion and he is fine with it.....you are just as correct in yours..............now stop thinking so much..........oomps

  I was a False Prophet

  by IWillBeDubbedNoMore in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was a false prophet.

  i would spend many a waking hour proclaiming to others that i had special knowledge that i was willing to share so that they could survive the impeding doom that was shortly coming upon mankind.

  i proclaimed to the world, or at least anyone i came in contact with, that the world would end within a generations time from 1914. i spoke this vile falsehood for years without any remorse.. i falsely spoke telling them that i was participating in a special separating work being done all over the world.

  Renni: They are not putting scripture where it isn't and the generation scripture clearly is a doublefold prophecy and you know it! otherwise Jesus would have returned on the destruction of Jerusalem.

  why do i have a feeling you do not knoIw what others here know? The WTBS have so many dual fulfillments it is ridiculous! God would have let us know if there was gonna be a second fulfillment, but i think he only did that ONCE in the bible. That is no reason to say every other prophecy is twofold...just stoopid.

  and why do i have the feeling that if wt soon says that jesus actually DID return invisibly after the destruction of Jerusalem, you would accept that, have no problem with the change, and rejoice over the new lite???????????????

  see i dont give a FLUCK whether they are false prophets or not, and you guys can argue that point till renni freezes over...but what i do know is that WT keeps getting things....

  so i dont give a crap if they are not a false prophet..........if they could have been right more...i may still be a dub
