  What if the male became pregnant and not the woman.

  Birth control would have been invented 25,000 years ago after the first time the guy told the girl "I missed my period".

  MadSweeney said: Nope. Nobody ever has. Demons aren't real.

  I beg to disagree. Ever have your ass hauled before a Judicial Committee?

  i challenge anyone that can accurately predict events by reading the bible or your prophetic book of choice, to give me a specific date when something will happen so i can watch for it!.

  give us the date here (not a pm) and tell us what will happen.. let there be no excuses!

  no get out clauses of ''it doesn't work that way'' or similar.

  OK, here's one: I predict that on the morning of July 16, 2013, that thousands of Witlesses will all be gathered together under one roof where they will sing, clap their hands off throughout the day, slap their kids, eat and sleep in their seats. At exactly 5:00pm, they will all disperse only to repeat the same routine the next morning.

  Okay, where's my million dollars?

  When I defended myself once, the bullies stopped but I got a severe beating for disobedience to the bible.

  Good lord. Sounds like your parents were 10x worse than the bullies.

  My sister told me on Saturday that there was going to be a 'special meeting' that was taped and it was going to be 2 1/2 freaking hours. I asked her what the topic was and she said she didn't know. I said "gee, maybe Armageddon is right around the corner again".

  So ya, I'd be curious to know what it consisted of.

  Actually I was talking to OldFlame not too long ago as he and Gumby have been close friends for years and they live in the same city. Gumby has more or less done The Fade and rarely ever goes to a meeting anymore. So that's good news. I was very surprised though when OldFlame told me that Gumby's wife hadn't gone to the meetings for a couple of months either. I'm not sure if it's because she was sick or just didn't want to go, but I can't imagine that goes over very well with their smug, self righteous son-in-law.

  While I never agreed with him going back to that shithole just to please his family, it was his decision, not mine and he simply couldn't handle not being allowed to see his grandkids or the rest of his family to the point where he was getting suicidal. And as bad as it was, I would rather see him as a live Witness than a dead ex-Witness.

  So...Did Judas Leave Before the Lord's Evening Meal?

  by undercover in

  yes, it's that time of year, once again, when the society starts reliving jesus' last few days on earth as a human.... in addition to all the propaganda about the 144,000 and only they being "allowed" to partake of jesus' blood and body at the annual jw deny christ ritual...another jw teaching, though not as dissected, is the teaching that judas iscariot left the room before the bread and wine were shared with the apostles.. it's important to jw doctrine that this be the case.

  because only those who make up the true christian congregation, the annointed, the first of these the faithful apostles, are to partake of these emblems.

  if jesus was already aware of judas' plan to betray him and yet judas was present for this new, important ritual, it would be rendered useless by his partaking.

  OMG, that's awful!! I have a healthy fear of dogs and I remember when we would do country territory; if a dog came barking up to the car, I refused to get out.

  Does anyone think there was a great deliverance of the Hebrews from Egyptian captivity?

  There doesn't seem to be any direct evidence outside of the bible, that a million Israelites had been enslaved in Egypt for 400 years and then were able to leave, cross the Sea of Reeds and then wander around for 40 years without leaving any physical evidence. However, like many ancient stories (like Noah's Flood), it probably has a bit of truth in it and is based on some event that really did happen.

  If you read the history of the Hyksos, I would venture a guess that the story of the Isrealites fleeing Egypt could have been loosely based on them, although the biblical version has been greatly enhanced. This is only an opinion though, and not written in stone.

  For anyone interested in the Hyksos, there is plenty of information out there: http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/judaica/ejud_0002_0009_0_09361.html
