Tower of Babel built by Babies!
by Billy the Ex-Bethelite inthe weekly tms bible reading assignment is not read, or not carefully read, by most of the sheeples.
it doesn't really matter, because the consideration of the bible reading material is one of the shortest parts on the meeting with a limited number of comments, and those comments are restricted to less than 30 seconds or you will get counselled.
over and over, the dubs are told to read the bible, yet the organization gives no real encouragement to read the bible by keeping everyone busy in the recruiting work and using relatively few scriptures in their "talks".. why?

by cameo-d inwasn't john the baptist supposed to be six months older than jesus?.
does anyone know the time frame between death of john the baptist and jesus?.

I wouldn't trust wikipedia on this but he was only 6 months older than Jesus. If I recall correctly Jesus heard that John got killed. Well it's an interesting thing to consider. This will require some more research!

I shave every day. I hate stubble. I've never let my hair grow in so I don't know how it would look. I'm not willing to take that risk.

I've liked Muse for a while now. Resistance is a pretty good cd and there are several songs on there I can see relating to the anti-JW cause.

Do you agree to disagree?
by cyberjesus insometimes in many conversations or debates, some people try to end it by saying "i agree to disagree".
if you have an inquisitive mind and critical thinking, are you comfortable disagreeing about factual information?
i am not referring to opinion.

I've had myself say "Oh, I guess I was wrong" several times before. It depends on the situation is and what the disagreement is. Usually when cold hard facts are presented, you can't argue against it.

I have seen plenty of John Wayne's movies. The best movie he was ever in was "The Longest Day". The reason? He only had a small part. Jimmy Stewart was a phenomenal actor. Just because he starred in a movie with John Wayne did not show his opinion or respect of John Wayne. Need I remind you of Paul Newman and Steve McQueen in "Towering Inferno". I could list off the John Wayne movies I've seen but that would take far too long. There's a reason he was typecast in brainless shoot em ups in comparison with Jimmy Stewart who could do it all. Clint Eastwood showed he could get out of being typecast, what was John Wayne's excuse?

John Wayne is one of the most overrated actors of all time. Reflect that. No versitility. Played the same character in every movie.
