probably a creationist that got fired for calling off too often.

Trouble Mind : I do not label myself liberal or otherwise . I just know who I trust and who I don't . I do not trust Glen Beck ....he is a shyster . Same goes with Sarah Palin .
Well, would you trust your children's future with dark skinned man with a name like Barrack Hussein Obama? His middle name is the same last name as the worst dictator in Iraq's history! His last name rhymes with Osama! His first name makes me think of the Marine Barracks that got bombed in 1983 by a suicide bomber, which just happens to be the same year he graduated from Columbia University! You think that's all a coincidence? I think not.

Well Sylvia, you're a bleeding heart liberal, and it sounds like your sides are bleeding too!! I would suggest Prilosec OTC, but it was a conservative who discovered it, and you wouldn't have proper appreciation for that sort of thing!!

Personally...I think Glenn Beck is doing a great job of bringing people back to where we belong in America and as Americans, back to what our founders meant it to be. A country with goodness...faith, hope and charity...We have gotten off the track somewhere.
You're so right Ri!! All those bleeding heart liberals want to do is sink our moral, and our moral integrity. They'd like nothing more for us than to be 3rd World Marxist hellhole! I know for a certainty that the Good Lord is guiding Glenn Beck, and grooming him for this country's return its glory days. He's hurting the liberal media where it hurts the most. He's the shining bastion of light to drown out the darkness of that commy currently occupying our once glorious White House. Soon Ri, soon, our faith in the Lord that we display openly by supporting good Christians like Glenn Beck will pay off for us and our children.

I like Glenn Beck too Ri. He's the corner stone that will be instrumental in building this country back up to where it needs to be.

Alright, who the hell is Holmes? Doesn't sound very Mexican to me.
Another way of saying homeboy, or homie. I guess it can be spelled holmes, or homes. Around my way and other cities I've been to, I've never heard blacks say it. I've only heard eses say it.

So we all agree that children are allowed and accepted to become baptized ordained ministers in the congregation, right? Anyone have a dispute about that claim?
Then why did the WTS make this claim to the European Human Rights Committee in 1997?
"As regards the alleged involvement of children, the [WatchTower Bible and tract Society] submits that children cannot become members of the association but only participate, together with their parents, in the religious activities of the community. In respect of the refusal of blood transfusion, the applicant association submits that there are no religious sanctions for a Jehovah's Witness who chooses to accept blood transfusion and that, therefore, the fact that the religious doctrine of Jehovah's Witnesses is against blood transfusion cannot amount to a threat to public health." {Sworn testimony submitted by the Society in evidence before the European Human Rights Commission Jul 3 1997}
I would personally like miseryloveselders (or any other current JW) to comment. Was this a dishonest claim by the Watchtower?
I swear this forum is going to get me fired. I'm spending wayyy to much time on here, but we're a lil slow at work right now. BrotherDan I'd say I agree and disagree with that statement. Forgive me if this comes off like something Johnny Cochran or Bill Clinton might say, but there's some truth to that statement as well as the obvious smokescreen typical of WT doublespeak. Most "children" don't get baptized or even pressured to get baptized. There's exceptions, one even being my own mother. She was baptized at age 9. Most don't get baptized at that age. Fast forward a handful of years though.......then the peer pressure starts. Its mostly teenagers ranging anywhere from 13 to 18. I got dipped at age 16. The pressure was on me too, cuz a couple of my close friends had gotten baptized before me. One of which recieved a hug from a grandmotherly member of my home congregation. She hugged him, and said hi to everyone of us with the exception of myself. The reason being was because it appeared that I was holding out at age 15. Between Fall of that year, and the following spring, my folks put the screws on me. So I did what was naturally expected of me. As a man now, I've noticed the trend hasn't changed much. There's still the exceptional preteen or child, but mostly is mid point teenagers and young adults.
On a side note, I'd say for those who resist the pressure of getting baptized beyond age 18, the chances increase greatly that they will never get baptized. You'll see them every so often at an assembly, convention, or The Memorial.

can't resist this, sorry. Who the hell talks like that? Is that the great Ebonics you be speakin?
"What it be like, Holmes?"
I thought you were all educated? What the hell?
What it be like, bro??
To answer yo question, it be all hot an' shit, G!! It be so hot dis summa dat der be 9 heat waves up here in da No'east, an right now dis be da last one of da summa. It be freakin 94 degrees today. I'm sweatin so bad my ancestors be feelin it!
You talk like that still, REALLY?
Black people don't say freakin in that context. Mexicans are the ones that say Holmes. Plus Syl's thread topic was tongue in cheek.
Where I'm at, its hot. Ridiculously hot. Hotter than an oven in WW2 Germany. Cooking biscuits that is.

Designs: misery-Explain in your terms the mentality of the 'Christians' who landed on this Continent and took by force the Lands away from the Nations and destroyed the cultures of people living here for centuries. The Spainish and other Europeans who took over everything from one Pole to the other.
In my terms, ahh man I don't know where to begin LOL. When I read what you're asking me to do, the first thing I thought of was Winston Churchill's thoughts regarding this subject. He said once, "I do not admit that a great wrong has been done to the Red Indians of America, or the black people of Australia. I do not admit that a wrong has been done to these people by the fact that a stronger race, a higher grade race, a more worldy wise race, has come in and taken their place." I don't know if Churchill was a Christian or not, but that quote pretty much sums up the mentality of those good Christians who arrived on this country.
Something I find ironic is, Churchill was a racist, but he's still considered a hero both here and in the UK for standing up to the poster boy racist, Hitler. At the same time, the people you and I are taught to idolize in this country fought for freedom from Britain. Those same freedom fighters took the tyranny that they learned from the British, and practiced it upon the Indians, the blacks, and others. Again though, these are good Christians. This country is built upon Judeo-Christian values as we're often reminded by Conservatives.
Jesus saying, "I never knew you" can be applied to many.
