What disturbs me is that Jehovah and his subordinates all have time to trim those beards everyday. I guess Wahl makes a fortune in Heaven or Alpha Centuri.

This Disturbs Me Most of All
by cameo-d inno, it's not the "claw hand"!
what disturbs me most of all is the potter's shards.. any coin collector will tell you that the "imperfect" coins are the most valuable.
any art historian will tell you that the value of a painting is it's originality and uniqueness and the talent that can only come with time, suffering, and perserverence.. it is the oddities and quirks in one of a kind pieces that make them a delight and a treasure.. so why is it that this potter has no appreciation for uniqueness?

Thriller Movie "The Village" must be based on Jehovah's Witnesses!
by Witness 007 inm. shamalan's movie deals with a village of "amish" type people who are too scared to venture outside the village since their "elders' tell them the forrest is full of demons.
they refuse to be "part of the world" and all medical care.
it turns out the village is in a nature preserve in the 20th century but the elders had bad experiences in the world and made up the demons to scare the young villagers into never leaving!

Keep pushing OOMPS life is about pushing on and not giving up. You'll find a new path and those in your life now will have a choice to follow or not. But you have to focus on your path and not those traveling with you. Life is tricky like that. Being 4th generation dub, understand it will take a lot of work to find out what your life is for purpose and meaning. And there is one Oomps, there is a reason you were put here. Keep pushing yourself bro and you'll have less and less time to worry about your wife or the drinks. Both of those situations will work themselves out, trust me.

Ya, I hate seeing stuff like that too. I'd be alcoholic if I had to be a fireman or paramedic.

Are You Paul or are you Saul?
by reniaa inthis was the same man at different times in his life yet he changed his name because he completely changed his ideals and goals too.
both were extremely zealous, both thought they were doing gods work, both thought they were working for the greater good.. acts 8:3 (new international version)3but saul began to destroy the church.
going from house to house, he dragged off men and women and put them in prison.. soul thought gods work was to destroy the christians but paul.... acts 20: 19i served the lord with great humility and with tears, although i was severely tested by the plots of the jews.

I haven't read Reniaa's argument but I noticed she is using the NIV and not the NWT. Just wanted to give her props on that.

I went to a JW get-together last night
by BonaFide inso here in the jw complex, well, 90% are jw's, a couple of my friends had a bbq yesterday.
i was invited.
they had heard about some of my comments and questions regarding the organization, but i guess they forgot about that.. the friends there were from three different congregations.

You could find the Elders molesting little boys and people would still believe... Oh wait hang on? That already happen... I'll consider my point validated. Word of unsolicted advice: Don't worry about what they believe worry about what you believe. They are no different than drug addicts. If you want to get clean you have to be willing to acknowledge they might be ok people but you are going to have to with them.

Can you please see if you can get my pet Lion for me? I will consider settling for the moderately attractive women in the yellow dress of the pic nic basket if it comes down to it. I don't want the horse too much work and I don't have enough water for the ducks.

Jw firefighter caught with child porn

I do feel that child pornography is in a different league than porn in general, much scarier.
That's an understatement... I am glad you feel that way Blondie.
Porn is not Child Porn not even close. Many normal healthy people like to watch grown ups do it all the time. Please don't even compare the two.

I am too apathetic to consider myself an Apostate. But I would go to an apostate fest on the off chance of meeting a very attractive and sexually repressed woman.

The Watchtower Sunday without a doubt. I remember counting how many paragraphs were left like you would the mile markers on long road trip. Whenever I can't sleep I wish I just had a tape of the Watchtower study to play.
