Great thread!
I would like to add that any religion that dictates what type of fabric you wear or how long your hair should be is probably a cult.

Thanks for that video, Cofty - super interesting! It's easy to watch, has compelling graphics and an easy presentation without getting too technical. Winner!
I've come to the conclusion that people who reject evolution do so because they have no true concept of time outside of their own personal experience of time. So if they haven't seen evolution in the 20, 30, 40 or so years since they've been introduced to the theory, it can't be true. Just a pet hypothosis of mine.

Gee, that's unfortunate. Have either of them considered consulting a psychiatrist, I wonder...
about a week ago my adult daughter called me crying.
it seems her beloved expensive cat had jumped out of her second story window and disappeared.

haha good one. I always suspected that the good lord was a fan of pussies.
as a kid i only collected comic books until around 1962.. my collection was very important to me and i had emotional excitement at the release of a new comic--but--i made a date with 2 girls.
on the same day and didn't have any money!
(not thinking it through, you see :).
Not sure if this counts, but I collect scotch canisters - they make for nice decoration amongst books and on top of bookshelves. Emptying the bottles that come in them is the best part.

"I'm 17 years old and I've studied the bible for myself without listening to what anyone else has told me". Yup, not brainwashed at ALL.

Start the show from the beginning, nonjwspouse. You kinda get immune to the zombies splashing everywhere.

"Evidently"? oh wait...I'm used to that meaning something else...
Any way, YES, it's a very big hit and what I love most about it is the character development that has happened over each season. You obviously need to suspend disbelief because the whole premise is ludicrous but the people make it truly great.
on the 100th anniversary of coca-cola, the company's marketing division made a bold move.. trends in the sales of coke were headed in the wrong direction.
competitors were eating away.
at the soft drink market once dominated by coca-cola.
lord love a duck, this is a lot of hideous
my jw friends and family...already this morning, think this is the best thing ever.
gag.
at least me and my rebellious friends and siblings had a laugh.. .
I think this TV thing could be freakin' awesome. If they put their ideas out there on a public forum like this and share with the world their thoughts on homosexuality, blood transfusions, apostates, disfellowshipping, the devil controlling the entertainment and political arenas, short skirts and tight pants, people who think they're just a benign religion may start to see them for the cult they are.
