does this trouble anyone?.
it seems semantic tom-foolery to declare a war on terrorism, and then to say that prisoners of the war are not prisoners of war.. it also seems very suspect keeping them of proper usa soil, as where they are they are out of sight, mind, or appeal by civil-rights factions.. do not get me wrong.. i am not saying, "ah, poor ickle terrorists".. but in a war against terror, surely taking each and every opportunity to distance yourself from your enemies is the wisest and best course of action?.
why do anything that is even remotely dodgy or underhand?.
Hey...Castro will find a way to send them to Miami!
why jehovah's witnesses are the "happiest people on earth".

"those germans!!
Scully,
You're awesome....my new hero...you're not female by any chance are you? If you are, they say I'm a "good lay". Seriously though, to Anyone reading: So where does a former screw-ed up JW with suicidal tendencies, homicidal nuances and other potentially criminal potential go to for companionship? I do appreciate all the great posts and in-the-club subtleties(sic/stoned?) but for us people who are ready to blow our brains out or marry a pharmaceutical rep, what do we do?...or, please forgive me, "where do we go?" Is there like club we could go to when night falls....like, The Paradise Club...or ??...sorry gotta go too fucked up, always at this time of year its getting better I think.
PS. I just learned you should never shave while stoned... that goes double for you girls...whoaaaa...see ya
at which table are you feeding?.
you cannot be partaking of the table of jehovah and the table of demons.1 corinthians 10:21.. these inspired words of the apostle paul show that two figurative tables are set before mankind.
each table is identified by the kind of symbolic food placed upon it, and all of us are eating at one or the other.
You stated in #3..."By serving the interests of anything opposed to Jehovah." Might that include the United Nations. I don't believe anyone on this board is an NGO! But we know who was!

big business of marijuana.
Every year, in college towns around the nation, several kids wind up killing themselves overdoseing on alcohol. I've never heard of one reported death due to a Pot Oh-Dee!
let's paint a little picture.. it's spring 2002. at 1200h gmt a radio and tv announcement is broadcast on almost all conventional frequencies, in appropriate formats according to the medium and the area.. it's from a bunch of pale violet humaniods who have come "in peace for all qw'z'x>kind".
they say they want to meet up with the un in full cnongress.. disbelief rapidly turns to amasement when cnn and other news-services provide footage of a large alien vessel descending into the river near the un.
large in this case means 5km long... and wisely, none of the sac jets sent to have a look pull a will smith or anything stupid, although one gets nudgeed gently away by an invisable beam of some sort when it gets too close.. let's say it becomes apparent the aliens are utter benign, happy to hand out technological aid, scientific knowledge, and hope to welcome the people of earth to your typical peaceful federation of planets (about 5,00 different species all told).. how do you think people would react?
How long has YOU BLOW been on this planet?
ten reasons why i never wash. my mother made me wash as a child.
the soap makers only want my money.
there are so many different kinds of soap, i could never decide which one was right.
I had a couple of Soap Sales Ladies come to my door the other day...they said their brand of Soap was better than mine. I told 'em I was happy with my brand since I was familar with their brand and I didn't like the way they were always changing the formula. Anyway, they stuck their foot in the door and insisted that I study Soap ingredients with them. I had to get forceful. I told 'em Mr. Bubble was my Saviour...and to take their SoapBox and get the hell of my property!!
hi, everyone.. on my researches about the jdubs.
i read that they are restricted or forbidden from engaging in activities such as sports, working out in a gym or in martial arts.. i, who does all three, have a question for the members of this forum:.
when you were a jw, could you do any of the three activities mentioned?.
Nathan is right on about the company line. I remember being told that you didn't need training..just pray and you'll get out of any situation. I believe there's a short line in the Elder's manual about martial arts and Boxing. I was told we should not even watch such things. Well when I got fed up I started Boxing at a gym at the ripe old age of 40+ and I think it helped save my sanity. It gave me an outlet for the unjustice that I received and got me into good aerobic shape...everytime you hit the heavy bag or the speed bag you just envision the faces of the motherf*ckers who f*cked you over and destroyed your family(sorry, it gets personal with me). I remember reading somewhere that the Apostles (I think Paul) was involved in some sort of training...probably wrestling, that was big.
for some odd reason this morning when i woke up the first thing that came into my mind was the suffering and pain that humans deal with on a daily basis.
again i'm not really sure what made me think about that so early in the morning.
(maybe it was a dream i had).
Leander,
Good points! And, How would we be viewed as parents if our children messed up so we not only condemed them, but also their offspring for thousands of years? It doesn't seem too logical does it? Wasn't logic pounded into our brains by the Borg when it came to the concept of HELL? So He won't burn us, just make the Family suffer for a few thousand years as discipline! It does not seem that the punishment has fit the crime. Thanx.
my question is,if it is true that only j.w's will survive then surely everybody on the planet should at least get the option of becoming a witness,but there are people living in remote parts of the world who rarely come into contact with civilisation,im pretty sure there are still small tribes of people living in some rainforest who haven't even been discovered yet,where do theses people fit in,do they just perish like the rest of us?.
sorry if this is a daft question,been on the guinness all night!
Hello Toddy...
As a lurker for a couple of months and now braving the Posting World, I'd like to respond to that. Nobody here knows my background except for maybe Randy but he doesn't know it's me. That didn't make sense did it. Oh well...I was affiliated for over thirty years and was recently screwed royally by the Elders and then the Brooklyn Boys that I appealed to, and that's all I can say for now. Your question was one I had brounght up over the years and was always told that the "work" did not have to reach everyone. Why? Because Jehovah knows everyones heart, so when Big A gets here and the "work" isn't done, so what, the good-hearted ones will still make it thru and get indoctrinated during the 1000 years. So the big question is, why do this infinetly fun preaching work if HE already knows the heart condition? I was always told it was to show our faith. No it does not make sense...just as it does not make sense that some Moron can die one day before Big A and he'll get ressurected to a possible 2nd chance, while someone else who may be an overall better person will get snuffed at the big Climax. Come on...Hitler gets another chance but the person who devotes his time to a childrens cancer clinic will die because he just didn't get the overall JDub picture! If you live in FantasyLand, You WILL believe in TinkerBell!
