was it ever a question of if?
it was a matter of how many were going to vote against it.. side note: did anyone catch the south park episode where mr. garrison riles up the city to vote against gay marriage?
the bad part about texas and virginia's laws is that they could be interpreted to disallow contracts between partners such as power of attorney, power over health issues, wills, anything that makes it look like they were trying to copy a marriage.
any gay couple with assets is very unwise to stay in virginia or texas.
groove on it fine folk
for its needed
has anyone else noticed that in recent years the new releases have less 'chunky' content?
a book of maps, a children's book about jesus (?
), and this year's book which summarises main witness teachings (from what i gathered anyway, i haven't seen it yet).. the language is simpler, the message trimmed up nicely.. i wonder why.
new books and new magazines are a scam. they don't offer any new information. scam scam scam. money money money.
the thumbs up is because the show seems to be a pretty good expose.
they talk with adult men online while posing as 13 yr old boys.
they have graphic conversations then invite the man to their house.
if there is such a large percentage of the population wanting to indulge in adult child sexual relations one has to begin to question if it is accurate to call them perverted.
i found the show quite disturbing.
i feel bad for them that they can't control themselves.
i try to picture going over to a 13 year old boy's house when his parents aren't home to have sex with him, it just really weirds me out.
'dateline' to air perverted justice sting .
you remember the guys at perverted justice.
they troll chat rooms acting like kids and get perverts to send them pictures -- which they post online.
its such a shame that children cannot be safe
song 39.
5 min: local announcements.. 20 min: improve your concentration at meetings.
talk and audience discussion based on the september 15, 2002 watchtower, pages 12-14, paragraphs 11-14. review the suggestions provided, and invite the audience to comment on what has helped them to get the most benefit from congregation meetings.. 20 min: "develop skill in reasoning with others.
why do you have to reason with people. i thought people with good hearts just responded to the message?
funny, the longer i go on, especially with the "new eyes", normal becomes fiction.
there is no real normal, but there is acceptable and unacceptable.
hurting others, that would be unacceptable.. next week i'll be going home, as in home where i grew up and learned the truth and learned what it means to judge, criticise, back stabb, lie, cheat, and cover over things when i'm too weak to face them for what they are.
utopias, including the imagined new world almost always require total conformity to some norm, lest the different reak havoc.
utopias will never exist. in reality people don't conform, they just give enough of an impression that they do that no one gives
them heat.

wow, return visits were what i lived for. i hated door to door, suspense, saying those stupid presentations, asking for money, blech.
what i found fascinating was bible discussions and/or debates where i actually got to use my brain.
i likes RV's better than Bible Studies, cause they were too repetitive.
.
that you accomplished in the last 24 hours?.
i ask becase i just keep reading lots of gripey posts (with good reason for sure, but i wanted to hear positive stuff no matter how mediocre or ordinary it might sound).. so tell me what was your highspot?
having a smooth project start day at work yesterday.
