I challenge Cold Steel to present a SINGLE shred of archeological evidence pointing to a group of hundreds of thousands of wanderers spending decades camped in the Sinai desert. Go ahead, I'll make popcorn while I'm waiting.

Your favourite dog breed ...?
by LoveUniHateExams inin an earlier thread, i mentioned that i wasn't a particularly doggy person but that my parents got a husky last year that i've come to regard as a kind of brother.. huskies superficially resemble wolves and for me it's been fun to compare and contrast husky and wolf behaviour.
huskies howl but rarely bark, and seem to have a strong prey drive and a strong pack instinct - a nod to their wild cousins.
this is why i love huskies, i think.. do you have a favourite dog breed and why?.

Dungeons and Dragons, Magic: The Gathering and all the stuff you weren't allowed to play as a JW
by marmot inby nature i'm a total geek.
i read the lord of the rings for the first time in grade 3 and i would probably have had a 20-sided die hung around my neck if it weren't for the silly superstitious restrictions against playing rpgs among jws.
if anything they should encourage role playing games among the youth because it'll keep them virgins forever.

Anyway, I'd like to get into the whole scene as I've never played a game in my life but I'm a bit overwhelmed and I don't know where to start. Anybody on here play? I'm willing to try anything, pen and paper RPGs, mini figurine RPGs, card games, you name it. I've heard that it helps to get into the hobby with a friend but I don't know if my fiancée has the patience for it so I'm gonna try and corrupt my 12-year old nephew. One game that really struck my fancy is relatively new, it's a card game based on the Warhammer 40,000 sci-fi universe called Warhammer 40K: Conquest. Unlike the regular Warhammer tabletop games, you just need the starter card deck to play instead of a bazillion figurines so it's cheap to get into.
Magic: The Gathering is also intriguing but I'm intimidated by the sheer volume of stuff out there.

when this was released.
everyone was so excited that we finally had a simple explanation of revelation with pictures.

I remember being excited about it because my bethelite uncle was used as a model for one of the illustrations. I forget what page it was but he was a catholic priest of some sort wearing a little black hat standing next to some bald-headed military general (or was it a businessman?) with a big cigar.

Heavy metal
by Godsendconspirator ini have always loved heavy metal music (thrash metal to be more specific).
since heavy metal is usually associated with satan and occult themes many christians and jws in particular stray away from it.
in my teenagehood i was listened to it obsessively until i started studying and got baptized at age 18 and i started listening to other genres.
