  Going back to the very first thread about this site, I mentioned that your typical jw would be turned off by the theme. I just realized what other website reminded me of ssotw. Take a quick peek and tell me a good little jw would browse the site, or better yet, visit the place.

  They both have the same "feel," don't they?

  Wasn't part of the quotes suit that they said it caused embarasment to the Society? If that were the case, I think six screens should cause far greater "Embarasment".

  Not that you haven't made it obvious or anything, but what is your association the Fearon's? Your excessive hyping of ssotw reminds me of someone pumping up a penny stock.

  it's been a long, long time since i've posted on any of the boards.

  partially, i had gotten out and busy.

  this board was indispensable and helped me leave the organization with a lot of confidence in what i was doing.. but, it's not all completely over.

  and I'm trying to let him see that "worldly" is not a bad thing, your hopes, dreams and plans for yourself are yours and not up to anyone else's editing, and that there are literally billions of different ways of looking at life.

  And once he hits his teenage years(the natural period of rebellion), your instructions should help him break free. The only way he could stay in is if his mother was to put the spiritual 'king-fu' grip on him and have the congo love bomb him until his 30's. It might help if you keep stressing to him that Jesus didn't get baptized until he was 30. I'm sure that would piss off his mother(and the elders) to no end especially if he questions them about it as well.

  I wouldn't be too worried if I were you. The WTS has only gone after websites that have "allegedly" infringed on their copyrights/trademarks. SSotW isn't in any danger.

  What kind of hobbies would you like to try?

  we were deprived of so much as jws.

  service and meeting had to come first which meant putting a lot of interests on the side - waiting for the new world when of course we would be too busy trying to convert the resurrected.

  i've tried many different things.

  Was Pornstar already taken?

  I could care less if I got paid for it(I guess that would make me a manslut).

  On a more serious note, Nos and I would get along really well if we lived near each other.

  CTO or a VP of Network Operations for a major wireless telecommunications company. I've got a ton of ideas but I'm too low on the totem pole to get recognized. Maybe I should start up my own company.

  Did Saddam use WMD's on his own people or not? We both know the answer is yes, so he did indeed have them

  The answer is.....he had mustard gas, which by definition, is not a WMD. It is an unconventional chemical agent. And who gave it to him? A nuclear bomb is a WMD. Tim McVeigh's truck bomb could be classed as a WMD. Hell, a simple gun could be considered a WMD seeing how guns have killed many more people on earth than any chemical or biological attack ever has.

  He used mustard gas on the Kurds. That is unless you don't believe this....or that Hitler tried to kill the Jews.

  You forgot the Iranians there as well. A weapon is a weapon is a weapon. Name a US president in the last 20 years that has never ordered the military to drop a single bomb. Just because one weapon take a few days to render a body fully incapacitated or to kill it, does it make the other better because it kills within a fraction of a second? Iran and Iraq were at war with each other. Why should we care what methods they used to kill each other? How does that concern us with the exception of our gov't wondering if the arms we supplied to Iraq worked or not? It shouldn't. If GWB had an attempt on his life, do you think he would just forget about the group of people who attempted the assassination? or do you think he would go cowboy on their asses and try to get revenge? Saddam did the same thing, except he picked up a little more collateral damage than what he probably expected. But why should we care about Saddam? What did he do to us? Nada.

  I'm still trying to decipher this phrase:

  negative flack coming from the far left wing of the X JW community, especially since Im pursuing this in a Christian venue first.

  I don't know whether to look at this politically or spiritually. When you mention far left wing with xjw community, to me that would reference the athiests of the board. Moving on from that observation, it would then suggest that you will be bringing up some sort of extreme God connection, whatever that may be. But honestly, everyone here respects everyone else's religious standing -- athiest to born again x'tian. The only way I could see you garnering negative press from the board is by hauling off to Brooklyn on a Wednesday and taking out a few elite members of a certain book publishing corporation(but in the back of many minds, this would be welcome - c'mon people, many of you would be singing out with joy if that happened but would never admit it publically). Now unless you are fibbing about killing someone to keep us off-guard from calling the authorities, I don't know. I would hope not, but when some people finally reach that breaking point in their life when nothing else matters, they are capable of doing anything irrational.

  I'm at a complete loss as to what you are going to announce. But I'm sure a good ol' fashioned WT bbq would cheer you up.
