  Ladies: How do I get her to stop flirting without being mean?

  by Elsewhere in

  2. friends

  there is this girl at work who has been making it painfully obvious that she's interested, however i'm not interested in her.

  so far i'm just acting as though i'm not seeing any of the "making of eyes", "any excuse to talk" or other general flirting.

  ladies, how do i make her stop without being mean?

  just had a brain fart and i don't think i'll actually try this, but see what you think.. .

  i made myself a promise that i was done serving on jcs roughly 2 years ago.

  and, with the exception of a rubber stamp reinstatement charade, i've kept that promise.

  I took a Dump right in front of the Door of the Kingdom Hall late one night after they disfellowshiped me just before the morning Watchtower study, and giggled about it almost till morning with a beer in hand. Tisk Tisk... I still laugh about it and its been 15 years.

  Armagedden Suitcase

  by Magwitch in

  2. experiences

  my mother let it slip the other day that all the families in their hall are putting together a small suitcase.

  inside this suitcase are to be things that you will take with you if given a 5 minute warning that the great tribulation is starting and you need to leave your home.

  my father seemed quite embarrassed that this slipped.

  The first thing I would do is make sure my stash secure. It’s amazing when I think how many of my friends and family used to weigh every thought and action on what a cheaply made little paper that reminded me of the “Weekly Reader” the wonderful little “Our Kingdom Ministry” and it’s stupid inserts. What a bunch of Zipper Heads.

  The next big Internet HAMMER BLOW to the Watchtower!

  within a year or so, the internet will be 'opened up' to allow users to create full web and e-mail-addresses using non-latin characters.

  the critical examination and companionships we have enjoyed for the past 15 years will become easily available to nationals in their own language.. imagine if the internet had been created and developed in chinese or urdu - how much use would that have been to you?

  soon, our lovely apostate friends around the world will be spreading the news in their own language!.

  What’s so bad about Ridiculing the Witnesses? Elijah ridiculed the Bale worshipers during the contest of fire, I think that is my favorite account in the Bible.

  I was in a Bar the other day with my friend, I had a few beers watching the couples dance, my friend said why don't you go ask one of those women to dance, I told him yeah" sure like they will dance with a guy with a fake wooden eye. He said drink one more beer and ask that fat gal over there, she will dance with you. So I chugged down the beer, and marched over to her and put out my hand and asked her if she Would like a dance, she looked up at me, and said Wood Eye! Wood Eye! I yelled back at her! Fat So, Fat So. She did not want to dance with me after that.

  The JUDGMENT PERIOD for all humans is not until the thousand year rulership of Christ. Thank God!

  "In the same prophecy which tells that the Time of the End is the time for the wise toward God to understand, we are told that this time will be especially marked by two particular features: first, "Many shall run to and fro"; second, "Knowledge shall be increased." (Dan. 12:4) Today we see this prophecy fulfilled. All over the world people are running to and fro as never before. Railroads, steamboats, automobiles, electric cars-surface, subway and elevated-etc., carry mankind everywhere. General increase of knowledge characterizes our wonderful day. Every child ten years old is able to read. All over the world are books, newspapers, Bibles in every home-opportunity for knowledge such as never has been known since man was on earth.

  The remarkable fulfilment of this prophecy marks our day as the time of The End, in which the present Dispensation is to be concluded and the New Dispensation is to be ushered in-the time when God’s people will be able to understand the situation and to get ready for their change."

  http://www.phoenixbiblestudents.org/index.cfm

  We have learned that the sacrifice of Christ secures for all mankind, however vile, an awakening from death, and the privilege of thereafter coming to perfection, and, if they will, of living forever. "There shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and the unjust." (Acts 24:15) The object of their being again brought into existence will be to give them a favorable opportunity to secure everlasting life, on the conditions which God requires -- obedience to His righteous will. We have no intimation whatsoever in the scriptures that, when awakened, the moral condition of men will have changed, but we have much, in both reason and revelation, to show that as they went into death weak and depraved so they will come out of it. As there is "no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave" (Ecc. 9:10), they will have learned nothing; and since they were sinners and unworthy of life and divine favor when they died, they will still be unworthy; and as they have received neither full rewards nor full punishments for the deeds of the present life, it is evident that just such a time of awakening as God has promised during the Millennium is necessary -- for rewarding, and punishing, and giving to all mankind the opportunity for eternal life secured by Christ's great ransom-sacrifice.

  The age of Christ's reign will be a time of just judgment; and though it will be an age of golden opportunities to all, it will be a time of severe discipline, trial and punishment to many. That the judgment will be fair and impartial, and with due consideration for the circumstances and the opportunities of each individual, is also assured -- by the character of the Judge (the Christ -- John 5:22; 1 Cor. 6:2), by his perfect knowledge, by his unwavering justice and goodness, by his divine power and by his great love as shown in his sacrifice to redeem men from death, that they might enjoy the privilege of this favorable, individual trial.

  In the very nature of things, we can see that the punishments of that age will be in proportion to past guilt. Every sin indulged, and every evil propensity cultivated, hardens the heart and makes the way back to purity and virtue more difficult. Consequently, sins willfully indulged now, will require punishment and discipline in the age to come; and the more deeply the soul is dyed in willing sin, the more severe will be the measures required to correct it. As a wise parent would punish a wayward child, so Christ will punish the wicked for their good.

  If you are having problems with your computer no matter what OS you have, well, you need to have this free tool:

  http://argente-registry-cleaner.en.softonic.com/

  The Windows Registry is one of the key system elements of the OS, meaning you should always try to keep it in perfect shape with tools like Argente Registry Cleaner.

  Argente Registry Cleaner analyzes the whole Registry in just a few seconds and finds all the invalid entries that programs usually leave behind after an incomplete uninstallation process. These entries can end up collapsing the Windows Registry and causing serious performance issues, but with Argente Registry Cleaner you have nothing to fear: the program will scan all the Registry areas, create a list with all found errors and provide you with the necessary tools to erase them. And for those of you who don't like messing up with the Registry, Argente Registry Cleaner also includes a backup option to be on the safe side. (As for me I just delete what ever it digs up, my computer has never ran so good, and its free, but I sent them a bit of money just to say thanks. Hootie hoo
