My wife became a US citizen yesterday!!!
by Dorktacular inyay!
for all of you who say america sucks.... i want you to go down to your closest immigration office and witness a citizenship ceremony.
i watched yesterday all day long as people from all over the world were sworn in as citizens 100 at a time every hour on the hour.

Iran vs. Israel - could it be the beginning of Armageddon?
by tartarus ini have recently read in the news that an attack on iran is planned sometime after the olympics in beijing.
here's a bit of background to it:.
when irans fledgling democracy was overthrown with support of cia the shah of iran was giving israel free oil thru a pipeline that still runs thru saudi arabia to a refinery in the israeli city of haifa.

not big style dealing, but we had a guy who'd take orders and get it from his dealer. pretty much everyone of the young guys in my congo tried some weed. didn't last too long though, as at some it didn't have any effect and some felt ill after smoking it.

Do You Consider Yourself a "Bright?"
by XJW4EVR ini have recently been exposed to this term, and i am currently doing research for a paper on this movement.
i am wondering if there are any on this board that would affirm this label for themselves.

while i sympathize with the brights, i wouldn't call myself one. simply because i don't want to be connected to any kind of organization.

"This system just cannot get any worse"
by JimmyPage inthat's what my dad has said at various times over many years.
i think it helps encourage him that the end must be very near and the paradise will be here soon.
my thought has always been "oh yes it can get a lot worse.

actually this system is getting better and better. there's no such thing as "the good old times". things like human rights, emancipation, equality of "race", freedom of speech and so on are only recent developments. the farther back you go in history, the worse it gets.
while there are still very bad things going on today, and very bad things might still be ahead, we are living in the best times ever. -

EMPTY KINGDOM HALL
by thebigdebate ini have heard from my father (who is an elder about 50 years old) that there is a great seperating work going on within the org.
he said that almost all of the people my age 25 to 35 have quit going to our hall (about 20 people).
i have not been to a meeting in about 1 year.

welcome!
it's been going down for years. i remember that we had to remove a few lines of seats, so the hall would not look all that empty.
i also know that many (i used to do that too) don't go into field service but turn in some 2-4 hours every month.
