by sleepy in

jw
friends

most of us now laugh at the witnesses, but i think compared to some others they are quite reasonable ( notice i said compared).. so which religion has the most crazy beliefs.. i dont have much knowledge of these religions but i'll mention what i know , feel free to add your own points or correct me if i'm wrong.. i'll start with.. mormons,.

believe jews migrated to america.and that we are angels on earth being tested.. monnies,.

believe rev moon is jesus on earth.they also use (missuse) quatum physics to prove their beliefs.. scientology,.

I have never understood why the Mormons always ride in bicycles. Why can't they use cars like everybody else.

"I read only non-fiction..."

by patio34 in

hi all you wonderful folks!.

i know a couple of people who made the above statement recently and got to thinking about it.

the way i see it a comparison could be made between fiction and non-fiction & art and photography.. both have their places, but art changes the original to match what the artist sees.

gilwarrior

Patio, I rarely read fiction. When I read a fiction book I usually stop reading it halfway through. The only fiction books that I have read and enjoyed are the Alex Cross novel by James Patterson. I supposed the reason is that fact is more interesting that fiction.

How to Translate Her Words

"i'm just not ready for a heavy relationship with you right now.".

gilwarrior

When she says
"I'm not ready for a heavy relationship right now."

She means
"I'm just not ready for a heavy relationship with you right now."

When she says
"Oh, God, I'm so tired this evening."

She means
"You better not be expecting sex tonight."

When she says
I'm underpaid at my job."

She means
"I hope you're picking up the tab."

When she says
"I don't understand how some people can have sex with someone they barely know."

She means
"If you want me, you better settle in for a long siege."

When she says
"Describe you ideal woman."

She means
"Describe me."

When she says
"We're going to have lots of time to see each other."

She means
"We'll be seeing each other lots of times before I let you have sex with me."

When she says
"Oh, I'm so unattractive."

She means
"Tell me I'm beautiful."

When she says
"My last boyfriend was incredibly cheap."

She means
"You're going to have to spend two hundred buck up front, minimum, before you get in here."

When she says
"I love you."

She means
"Tell me you love me."

"I have so much love to give, but no one to give it to."

Toilet Seat Up Or Down??????

by ladonna in

we have no problems in our relationship about the toilet seat.

but others seem to make a big deal as to whether the guy should leave it down for us ladies.. what's your take on this?

take into account ladies that if a man puts it down, and we leave it down, he has to always be putting it up.

gilwarrior

For years me and my sister shared the same bathroom. She would always get mad at me for leaving the toilet seat up. So I guess that I always leave it up.

Watching the World

by Abaddon in

pot smoking has been possible without police interferance in holland for years.

now with portugal lifting virtually all anti-drugs legislation, belgium joining the dutch in decriminalising cannabis, and britain reducing it from a class b to a class c drug (making it on a par with abusing perscription drugs), the only question is when will the usa give up it wasteful and pointless 'war on drugs'?

get with the program uncle sam, don't be part of the problem which leads to massive criminal activity devoted to supplying substances whose use is a victimless crime!.

gilwarrior

Abaddon, what a coincidence! Right now I am reading a book entitled "Why Our Drugs Laws have Failed and What We Can Do About It." It was written by a former US judge named James P. Gray. It gives a good history about how the US ended up with the stupid and insane drug laws that it has.

The reason we continue to have these laws are from what I have read so far:

1) If anyone suggests that the US do anything different than the 'zero tolerance policy' that it has now, then they are accused of wanting to legalize drugs and giving to to children.

2) Politians won't do it because they are scared of being 'soft' on drugs

3) Law inforcement and government agencies get lots of money through tax money and money seized from drug busts and they would oppose any change to the current system because their money flow would end.

4) People's mentality in the US is that pot and cocaine is bad, but other drugs like alcohol and tobacco are OK. Even thought they just as bad for your health.

I believe that one day the US will eventually soften it laws. In states like California, Nevada, Arizona and others have passed, by large margins, laws softening current drugs laws. However, they have always been shot down. I believe that the pressure will increase and we will have drug laws that will show some sanity.
