i've done this before but this adds a lot of names - a lot.

gregg alexander - the new radicals' lead singer; raised by mother papa dee allen of the 70s-80s rock group war.

Just a side note I would hardly call Kimberly Holland a "porn star". She posed for Playboy which is like posing for Maxim these days.

the august 2010 awake!

magazine, (cover title) "jehovah's witnesses, who are they?

", seems to be a pr puff piece aimed primarily at a european audience.

lol some of the comments in here are laughable (thus why I started with lol). Jeez this is what makes us "apostates" look like nut jobs. Taking some random innocent quote and making a frame job out of it. Thank God, TheOldHippy was here to actually speak subjectively on it.

2. bible
i have a bil that has started to doubt.

he is hung up on the fact that he sees jw's as the only one fullfilling the preaching of the good news.

i am sure there are some excellent past posts on this topic and would be happy to get them.

Get him to read COC that is the final tipping point for most who are doubting.

the senate stripped out $3.4 billion owed to the native american tribes from a government trust fund which was attached to the much larger, $60 billion, funding bill for the afghan war build up.. maybe more young native amercian men and women need to join the armed forces.. .

by cameo-d in
1. watchtower
2. bible
exodus 38. in the first verse the altar is described as "five cubits in length and breadth".... "it was foursquare".

in verse 4 "he made for the altar a brasen grate of network under the compass thereof".

seems to describe a compass and square, does it not?

Are Dubs just getting lazy?

twice this month i've seen dubs out.

both times they just totally avoided me.

yesterday i went to subway and they were sitting on down outside of subway with their rags.

First of all I was raised a witness so I know all about it. So just FYI you don't need to "preach" to me about what they believe. My Mom and Dad still go out door to door, but even they seem more apathetic about it then they used to it. It's become more of just something to do together then actually saving people as one person brought up. I remember (and I'm relatively young) when I would go out you tried to talk to every single person you could. Bonus points if they were by themselves. I didn't like it but that was what we did. Now it just seems like they go out of their way to NOT talk to you. This has happened two other times, once in a Wal-Mart parking lot where I even made eye contact and smiled(!) and another time at the bus station, though there are so many people there I could understand how I would get lost in the shuffle.
Personally if it is the case I blame the internet. Religions worst nightmare. This could also be good. The tides have been slowly shifting for awhile so this is just another chink in the armor.

Twice this month I've seen dubs out. Both times they just totally avoided me. Yesterday I went to subway and they were sitting on down outside of subway with their rags. They didn't even attempt to make eye contact with myself or the people walking in front of me. WTF? Aren't they supposed to be smiling and striking up a convo? The other time was very early in the month I went to a gas station and two women approached another women directly beside me pumping gas. I could tell by the horrible dresses that they were dubs. She shooed them off and they just walked back to their car. Didn't even think of asking me. Now I am a clean cut guy and I drive a Mercedes so I wasn't exactly screaming dangerous but I guess you just never know so I can at least see a little bit why they didn't try to talk to me. I was very disappointed.
I've been out of the game so long, is the door to door annoying strangers at random spots starting to die down among newer members?
