i came across this clip from an assembly where a co 'reasons' with the audience on whether christians should wear beards 'in this time of the end'.
while not containing any reasoning at all it could also be concluded from this clip that the wbts doesn't like you to wear sandals either.
oh, and jesus was a cross dresser.
No one mentioned Hebrew Hikers!
Everyone knows socks are the real issue here. Socks are the only thing to protect us from the sin of toes. At least that's what I was taught. Frankly I think socks are the footgear of the devil, and do nothing but impede us from the natural glory of the naked foot! Be free! Let the toes romp and frolick in naked abandon!
DOWN WITH SOCKS I SAY! DOWN!!
People who don't have legs (I'm looking at you Bad Seed) should not post on threads about Sandals!
i was stuck at home tonight and was dreading tv...woo hoo, dog eat dog-my lucky day!
(sarcasm).
but pbs to the rescue!
LOL Musky--nope I am done watching the kitties...they survived their whole day with me, thank god!
Wassa--wait for me! I will come see it with you!! I love the Sea-Tac area! That museaum sounds awesome!

Oh god!!
Not Mumia!! Anything but that!
in our eagerness to highlight all thats wrong with jehovahs witnesses i some times wonder if we go too far.
there are many good points to be made about flaws and problems amoung jehovahs witnesses.but sometimes there just seems to be a bit of nit picking,exagerrated acusations, pointing out problems that apply to virtualy any person or group and making it seem like its only applies to witnesses.
also sometimes we fail to seperate the general witnesses and those in charge when criticising the society.

Ya think? This is something I have been harping on for ages...I couldn't agree more sleepy.
yesterday i was approached by a man who offered me a free stress test.
i immediately recognised this as a scientology scam (ok, he was standing outside the scientology building) but it got me thinking.. ireland is a small country, and over 90 percent of the population are catholic.
most of the rest are anglican or presbyterian.
Maybe when they got rid of all the snakes in ireland, the dubs went too?
By the way--is that true? There are no snakes in Ireland? In which case I am crossing the pond, I HATE SNAKES...
lately, i've found listening to my "simpsons" cds while i'm driving home from work to be very helpful in de-stressing.
they always make me laugh, and it's far less depressing than listening to the news on the radio while i'm driving.. i've also been known to have bubble baths by candle light with a good relaxing cd playing (i have one that's of thunderstorms which is one of my favorites).
glass of wine optional.
It really depends on what is stressing me and how I like to remove it.
There are some public gardens near me, and more importantly near my school, so I can just go there between classes and chill out and roll in the grass, they don't care if ya do!
Doing some simple stretches and breathing exercises are great after work.
When life in general has me stressed/depressed laughter really is the best medicine. I'll pop in a favorite video, talk to one of my friends who I know can make me laugh, or head to this improv theater--good times!
seven recently posted some darling pics of himself as a baby!
sooo cute!
i thought it would be so fun to see everyones baby pictures!
Is that twine string in your underwear or are you just happy to see me?
Me circa 1984, anyone else remember wonderoos?
You'll all please note, the boots belonged to my sister, they are on the wrong feet, and oh yes, bandaid on the chin...I was so damn sexy! This doesn't constitute kiddie porn does it?

my latest addition to my thread "armageddon - jw speculations" got me thinking.
i was talking about jw's, and how they will avoid telling people at the doors that they believe they will be the only ones to survive armageddon.. i know when i was a jw, there was certain things that i was embarrased to tell interested ones about, and prefered to avoid the issue, or prance around it, trying to make it sound less harsh, or make me look like a complete nut.
when i talk to my jw family now, i notice there are certain issues that they will try to deny about the organisation, constantly.
I never asked for donations...downplayed holidays, sort of an aloof, "no really I don't mind not celebrating"
I tried to not talk about men being in charge either. Like women were just as good, yeah right, and held just as good a place as men in the eyes of Jehovah.
what type of personality do you really have?
do you have the same personality in person that you do on-line?
some of us here seem to be rather private and others appear to be very good at communication.
Painfully shy in real life...unless I feel REALLY comfortable with people.
Most people I think view my being shy as standoffish, or sad, or something silly like that.
I think that's why I dig the internet so much, I feel like here I am the me that I never let out cuz I am too scared of her.
