don't they claim to be "spiritual jews"?
They did when I was in.
And I always noticed that they keep the rank and file so busy with the Old Testament that they don't have time to get the real Good News of the O.T.
sacrebleu
because witnesses are less into christ than they are into moses.
when christ talks about turning the other cheek, witnesses talk about why the faithful should shun anyone that doesn't see eye to eye with them.
the jewish religious leaders were condemned by christ for their biases.. why do jehovah's witnesses treat disfellowshipped ones as if they were "dead"?

i once called on a guy who invited us straight in...then told us he was "lazarus son of god.
" he had a cazy look in his eye, and would repeat this line every few minutes.
the brother with me was trying to "reason from the scriptures" that he in fact could not be lazarus...i just wanted to leave.
My sister's Bible study called her one night and told her she must come over it was urgent.
When she got there the woman showed her a box and said it was full of drugs. Sis gave her a ride to the police station and couldn't believe how rude the cops were, laughing and all.
Sis said, "This is serious!" The cops asked her if she had seen inside the box. Of course she hadn't and it was full of trinkets, marbles etc. No drugs. Apparently this was a regular thing with the woman. Man, my sister sure felt stupid.

my 3 min.
interview.
they had asked me ahead of time not to talk of the witness connection; didn't want to piss anyone off.. http://www.kvewtogo.com/news-video/?section=9&mgid=2020.
Hi Bryan and all,
I can't get the video to run at all, either way. My hubby says it is probably because I don't have XP.
Is that it? I really want to see it.

we just had a horrible episode in our back yard.
as most of you know i have two warlock dobermans.
they are very large and powerful.
restrangled,
If I may be so stupid, what is a Warlock Dobie? Is it a certain bloodline or what?
I kept my friend's dobie when she was widowed and moved to an apartment before she bought her house. It was great. I loved her, but she never bothered any of our cats.
We went out of town shopping one day and when I got back 18 hours later she had one of my collectible dolls on her blanket. At first I thought she might have ruined it, but there was not a hair out of place on the doll, clothes clean and everything. I guess she just wanted something near her with my scent on it. She was so sweet.
Only trouble I had out of her was that her nickname sounded like the nickname of one of my own dogs (a big collie sized sheltie) and they would both come when I called either of them and then growl a little at each other. But no fighting.
sacrebleu
i saw this on the wt official site..... now, they can't have too much love for fido!
enjoyment is evil, folks.. skeeter.
petshow do you.
I've never had a dog back talk, wreck the vehicle, or give me indigestion.
I've never had a dog who was brain washed into not socializing with me.
I vote for dogs over most people.
They drag people out of burning buildings, they find lost people, they hear and see for us, turn lights on and off, help the disabled get out in the community, alert for seizures, they protect us and our property, they can lower our blood pressure, give the dying something else to think about, give the depressed a reason to get out of bed.
I think they are some of God's best work. And no stupid cult is going to change my mind.
Thank God for dogs.

or for that matter, if a candidate didn't believe in god or belonged to a sect or was a believer in islam.....would you be leery?
Man, I thought Mitt was just a Mormon. Turns out he is Mormon AND scum.
This site is so educational. Thanks you all! I just LOVE you!

Mormons believe that each man will be god of his own planet some day with a host of wives who are continually pregnant with spirit babies.
I don't want to vote for a man who thinks he is becoming a god. Or a member of a religion who thinks women should be subservient.

Some of the other countries don't drag their scores down by educating those who might not do well.
The US supposedly believes that ALL deserve a chance at education.
Some don't learn as well as others, thus the scores are lower.
