I just read this article today as well - totally disgusted me. I would highly recommend "Fast Food Nation" as a gripping read. The comments by the doctors about his liver were gross and appalling. Can't wait for this to come out on Sundance Channel.

What are some of the wackiest comments you've heard at a meeting?
by doodle-v innearly every cong has few goofballs who you can always count on to give some really off the wall comments during a meeting.

I like Coke for mixed drinks and Pepsi on it's own.
That said, pop (soda for you Yanks) is the biggest reason there are so many obese children and adults. I am appalled when reading books like "Fast Food Nation" to find out how many youth are drinking this crap daily. I saw a woman giving an Orange Crush to a one year old and saying "drink some juice"! Kid under 5 should'nt be drinking acids like that. I have one every couple of weeks and have in fact switched to Diet Coke seeing that it's pretty bad crap for you.

How do witnesses answer the following?
by sandy ini seriously forgot many of the teachings of jw's.
the more i read your posts and do research on my own the more i realize how little i really know about the bible and jw teachings.. .
my question is this: if able and even enoch proved to be true followers of god even though imperfect why was it necessary for god to send his son to die for us?

That would make too much sense... It also wouldn't sell many books.

SLP - I hate to beg to differ, but traditional GPS doesn't "transmit" to satellites. It merely picks up the signal from a series of satellites and calulates position. I would assume that these phones would transmit a signal (on the cell phone spectrum) to feed location - not up to the satellites.

SLP - I honestly can't see how GPS will work without line of sight unless they are also using the Coast Guard beacons etc. If you are in a concrete shopping mall, you are going to get a read on the satellites.

2 questions
by got my forty homey? in1. is it possible to worship jehovah without a earthly organization, just on your own?.
2. if jesus came to earth today would the wt society make him get baptized and then df him for apostacy?.
i was just wondering this because i received a book yesterday from my parents called "draw close to jehovah" i skimmed through this book and found nothing new, same old rhetoric from the 80's.

Shame they sold off Beth Sarim... They'll have to put him up in a condo in the DUMBO neighbourhood.
Either that, or at Bethel they would have him cleaning toilets to keep him humble.

Very good news. I used to catch the show when it was first run and enjoyed it, but when I got the DVD sets I didn't realize how quickly the show his stride from the beginning and how hilarious it was.
