  my husband reminded me of something crazy we did when we first started dating, so i thought i'd share it here and see if anyone else has some fun stories to add!.

  we went out to dinner one night...me in a nice dress and him in a dress shirt and slacks.

  afterward we decided to hit the beach for a nice moonlit walk in the sand.

  isn't the whole crux of the wtbts organization and its purpose a competition to see who is willing to suffer the most?

  A sort of morbid fasination is kind of normal to a degree. Yet i would serously avoid looking at things, I know it can be addictive looking at shocking images, but its important to realise why you should avoid them.
  
  You may be looking just to get a reaction from yourself, or whatever reasonsyou need to anylyse your feelings. Its sadly true, what you feed your mind on effects you.
  
  I had a phase of looking at things like you are and I started having very intense nightmares...
  
  Just try and draw a line under it. Dont get work up about it..
  
  Its kinda of normal to slow down for a car acciddent... so everyone does.
  
  :) im sure its just a phase!

  ONE:
  I am not happy or joyfull.
  I do not see the work of the creators active force within the congregation or the world in general. Although I do see evidence of design.
  
  TWO:
  
  Today our world houses about 6+ Billion people.
  Today the world houses about 6+ Million baptised publishers or at best 14 million people who associate themselves as Jehovah Witnesses.
  
  If armageddon came today, according to the WTBS nearlly 6 billion + people will die. These wicked people will all see the error of there ways and know Jehovahs name.
  
  THREE:
  
  The world population is growing by roughly 211,000 people per day (as per world population growth rate in 2007), while the number of JW publishers has recently peaked out at an average of 548 per day (as per 2007 figures). That's roughly 210,500 more people that die EACH DAY that Armageddon is delayed.
  
  FOUR:
  
  The truth is often refered to as "meat in due season" or "milk". Equally the truth seems to have a use by date. Old light. New light. Newer light. The truth is always catagorically the truth until we are told by the society it is not the truth is the old truth.
  
  FIVE:
  
  The "gun against my head". It is fear & guilt based religon. Constantly using fear to influence me. Fear of armageddon, shunning, the world, satan, apostates etc etc.
  
  SIX:
  
  Hypocrisy. Obvious. Study the bible but dont study apostate bibles etc.
  
  SIXTH:
  
  They use manipulative techniques to control and influence congregation. Hiding things. Behaving like a totaltarian police state.
  
  SIXTH:
  
  They cause divisions in families and society. Working AGAINST unity. Promoting ignorance.
  
  SEVENTH:
  
  There is no joy in it. There is no hope. No UNCONDITIONAL love.
  
  EIGHTH:
  
  Every one is obsessed with their position, good standing and reputation. Women are treated as second class.
  
  NINE:
  
  It is an organization formed by fanatics in the victorian times, run by man. Runs like a business. Overhyped. Over promising. Never Delivering.
  
  TEN:
  
  Straining nats. They have lots of laws and principles but miss the point. thats why people can hide behind rules and principles. That why pedophiles can manipulate the situation to ensure they can carry on ruining peoples lives.

  I wouldn't worry about it--it's an intelligence thing. Brits are not quite as bright as North Americans. In fact, I hear they show The Simpsons and Family Guy over there, but they have to get actors to voice British accents and dumb down the dialogue a bit.

  
  
  LOL not even worth a retort.
  
  I do like the idea of a british homer.. that would be funny.
  
  I definitly agree, the american version of the "office" isnt dumbed down in any way. at all.
  
  /subtitles for american audiences/ *Im being sarcastic by the way*
  
  This guy sounds like a nob.. you get them in most countries. Just nice to see we have deported this one:)

  Firstly its probally just a bad case of British "humour".
  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_humor
  
  I think us British kinda forget how dry we can be. Generally we just insult each other.... kinda like mild bullying. The whole point being, its funny when someone gets upsets.
  
  Compliments, are generally avoided or hidden insults.
  Expect plenty of sarcasm and black humour..
  I dont think british people dislike americans or canadians i think they find there sensitive side ammusing.
  
  Watch the "the office" and so and you should start getting an idea... might make it more bearable..
  Sounds to me there trying to make a new start,
  
  Us english could moan for england! its like our national pastime!! Oh yeh ESSEX is a real place !!

  2. friends

  those haunting words...those out of tune dubs...wailing...moanin...then i wake up :p lol i am kidding, but i remember 'snippets' of a lot of songs, all of which focused on me being submissive (for example song number 8, my favourite as a child dub).

  does singing help brainwash sheep?
