When the Reptillian Anti-Christ is unmasked, what is your firearm of choice to kill our invaders?
by WingCommander inthis subject thread has been on my mind for a while, especially after seeing "zombieland" and foodall's thread about our possible ufo/reptilian over lords/realion/alien invaders.
when the great day of reckoning comes, whether it be from ufo alien invaders, realian reptilian over lords, demons in human-hybrid form, or just plain old virus-infected zombies, what will you be carrying to defend yourself from the hostile forces of e-vile?
please, no one say a "bible" or i'm going to just laugh my ass off.

I'm only worrying about zombies as I'm sure that is how it will end, rather than UFOs/reptiles etc.
Guns are hard to get in the UK so I would take what I can find, but ideally I would like:
- http://www.arscives.com/bladesign/images/2.%20full-sword-set-2.jpg Samurai sword to carry on my back (in case ammo runs out)
- Baseball bat (less blood)
- Pump action shotgun, probably sawn-off double barrelled
- Sniper rifle
- Couple of magnum pistols.

Simple explanation why "Anointed" # going up (from the CO)
by InterestedOne ini asked the co, if the heavenly calling was closed in 1935, why is the number of anointed going up?
he simply said that the society no longer says when the heavenly calling was closed.
have they discarded the 1935 teaching?

Larsinger, you forgot to multiply by pi and then differenciate delta x by delta y.
When you do that and then divide by the square root of C, where C is the constant represending the speed of light, you get 55378008 which on a calculator upside down spells 'boobless'

Do you miss "dressing up" for the meetings?
by dozy ini was thinking about this the other day when doing a bit of tidying up of my wardrobe.
all the kh suits are now pushed to the back of the wardrobe and i am seriously thinking about a visit to the charity shop to get rid of most of them.. for me one of the (few) enjoyable aspects of being a jw was getting dressed up.
my secular work very rarely involves putting on a dress suit & tie so i miss getting dressed up - smart suit , tie , shiny shoes , slapping on the aftershave.

When we wake up on the day that we have scheduled to study together, we say to each other: 'Guess what tonight is? Family Worship night! ' After that we let out a large sigh, turn to each other and say 'Fuck my life' in tedious synchronicity.

2011 Pronunciation - my opinion
by Mad Sweeney inwe are now in the year 2011. you may recall some discussion at the turn of the century about how to pronounce the years 2000, 2001, etc.
it seems to me that the consensus was to say "two-thousand" and "two-thousand one" and so on.
but i think now that we are in the second decade of this century it is time to move on to the traditional two-number pronunciation system for the years and continue with it for the rest of the century.. just as 1975 is pronounced "nineteen seventy-five" and not "one-thousand nine-hundred seventy-five" it is time to pronounce the year 2011 as "twenty eleven" and not "two-thousand eleven.".

00s are pronounced by nearly everyone as "naughties" (UK anyway)
can we just say eleven now? Like we used to say ninety-nine (not 1999), doesn't feel right still!

Look at this funny cartoon spoof of the WT study -- Tell me what you think?
by MarkedFragile inthis clip is one of many cartoon spoofs of life in jw world.
this particular one is a cartoon play on the wt study.
one of my favorite parts is where the man is flipping pages in the bible, trying to find the scripture being read, and when he finds it, the person is already done reading it (which always used to happen)!

might be too late for her, seems like she's brainwashed already, if she's that down she'll probably get baptised anyway just for acceptance from the people around her

At at even more unbearably boring than usual Tuesday night meeting I decided to read the book of Romans from start to finish as something to do.
I had never read anything form start to finish before as I found there was never time to actually read anything besides the singles verses chucked around here and there, although JWs are meant to do their own bible reading I found with a full time job, 3 meetings a week, prep for those meetings, FS and all the other stuff to do I had zero free time, and if I did it was a saturday night at which time I just wanted to chill.
Anyway, I read it and all and what I read didn't gel at all with the 'good news' JWs preach. Actually it seemed very loving and basically said 'try your best'. At that point something clicked.
For years I'd put up with people acting badly, putting it down to imperfect behaviour, same for the obvious lack of love. Lots of things doctrinally didn't make sense, but I shelved them.
I think reading Romans along with also studying the Revelation book at the time, where it was obvious the WT had no idea what it was talking about, made me realise JWs didn't have the truth at all.
I was set to move congs as had just got married, missed some meetings due to the wedding, then honeymoon, then was ill for a bit - it resulted in about 6 weeks away and enough to shake off the brainwashing.
I looked into some of the doctrines in more detail, which ended up in proving to myself that the whole thing was made up, and then by extension realising that the bible was just as made up, and ended up agnostic.
