it actually happened right next to a kh, but not the one they apparently attended even though they lived right by it.

In Texas at least Dallas we will shoot you for running from the police. See 2:10 in this clip.

i guess this is a question mostly for born-ins.
i wonder how many of you went to college after leaving or while you were in and what was your experience like?.
Did you fly thru Engl Comp I and II like I did? I think the society discourages college because once you spend a weak on fallacious arguments the Watchtower just doesn't cut it anymore.
I wonder what people got degrees in and what they did with their lives? I am at the cross roads, gone about as far as I can go before picking a major.
You got one too. Sounds like a good idea. I hung out with a girl from my old congo when I was a kid, like a child I mean. It was fun, sad, and enlightening all at once.

If the Ku Klux Klan was as good at PR as the Muslims are it would be illegal to smile at a black person in this country (USA). I am amazed at how they always make themselves out to be the victims. Hey people wake up! Everytime I look on Cnn.com and see something else f*cked happened guess who it is? A Muslim.
this is a forum for fomer jehovah's witnesses.
that is a cult that drills into its members the concept that the political process is evil, delusional, selfish, greedy, and satanic.
it's fascinating to hear so many political naifs express themselves with such certainty and fervor.
The problem is when people start talking politics on this board they can't just express their opinions and leave it at that or have intelligent or honest debate. If it doesn't end with a "return visit" or conversion they will slander those they disagree with and make ad hominem attacks till Simon locks the thread. Remeber the things we would say about people that didn't take our stupid magazines as soon as we got back in the mini-van?
Same game, different arena for most folks on here.

should get people talking about cults again..
I know people that knew Dave personally. The people that died there were not doing anything that anyone on this board hasn't done. It was never proven he was abusing the underage girl there and if it came out he did I guarantee it would have been handled when evidence came forward.
That being said...what happened in Waco is like if you were at an assembly and the federal government surronded the hall. They walk in the doors shooting (knowing you have armed security guards) then when you tried to leave they shoot more, then they set the hall on fire. Why? Hmmmm, let's say one of the speakers had a warrant or the IRS wanted to talk to him about his tax return. All the while the local sheriff and Texas State Troopers are screaming at the FEDS, WTF are you here and why are you doing that?
We know what happened here in Texas. Dave was off, off like the autistic kid on the bus that the bullies pick on. This wasn't botched it was an attack on freedom of religion and the 2nd amendment. I don't agree with a lot of free speech but I defend the right, the same should go for the other freedoms.
You will find no evidence of Dave being anything but cooperative from law enforcement until that day guys in all black with automatic rifles busted into his house shooting at his "family". What would you do, lay down and die or grab your AK and fire back? He did what 90% of the state of Texas would do if ANYONE busted down the door shooting for no apparent reason.

it was very interesting.... of course, the first thing i noticed was the building.
very different from a "kingdom hall" - this catholic church is in an extremely modern, six-sided building.
as one enters the building, their "holy water" font - fountain(???
Organized religion should be a structure for you to grow, like a vine grows up lattuce work towards the light. The church is not the light but helps you get closer to the light.
Everyone is at a different place. Some folks don't need or aren't ready for any organized religion. Heck, the Kingdom Hall is a big step towards the light for some (let's be honest). The problem is some people take a step closer and turn their brains off and we all know those types in and out of every religion.

Zid,
I would hardly consider myself an expert on the topic but I do appreciate the confidence. I approached life with a very similar viewpoint for some time which led me to the conclusion that all religion is there to help us make sense of ourselves and the universe. Proverbs 14:12 says, "There is a way that seems right to a man but it leads to death". In my opinion ALL religion not just christian addresses this fatal trait in humanity. I am just a guy that saw the need to address that issue and picked a team. Is it a perfect team, certainly not but the 1993 Dallas Cowboys (best team ever) had a few flaws too. The point for me is that my team supports me, pushes me, and loves me and I return the favor. People who take this approach to religion as opposed to the "we must cover the earth with our literature or doctrines" approach seem to be much happier and spiritual. The more I seek the God of the bible the more light, order and love come into my life. Maybe it's because that is what I know first or that is what is most convienent. Everyone must find their own path and I love to see people opening themselves up to different traditions and practices. I think spiritual people, neo-pagan, buddhist, christian have more in common than they do not.
I am glad you are exploring and putting yourself out there. May you find more light, love and peace.

I wonder if just that font makes anyone else sick or is it just me. I never see that font anywhere else but WTBS forms.
