  i guess that my one year anniversary here has come.. i've made lots of friends... and perhaps a few enemies.. i've made people laugh... i've pissed people off.... i've made people think... i've made people cringe.... i've moved ahead in some areas of life... still stuck in some others.... i've had a lot of fun... i've had some tense moments and tears.... i've been able to make sense to people... spoke utter nonsense at other times.... to my 'fans' here: thanks for the support and having my back... .

  to people who hate my guts: go ahead... take your best shot... .

  either way, i win.

  Since You've Left The Organization Have You Turned Into A "Bad" Boy or Girl?

  the witnesses say that if you leave the religion you will become a very vile person.

  you will probably get vd.

  you will get into drugs and booze, your life will go to hell.. personally, i've been pretty much the same guy although i would now be viewed as a "fornicator".

  I'm Canadian so I bath in beer…and sometimes drink one. Also enjoy inhaling smoke from the leaves of a certain plant on occasion. Bad? Nah. If it was good enough for Carl Sagan, its good enough for me.

  Considering I used to be a bigoted a**hole against homosexuals and their rights, and less concerned for humanity and our planet, I'd say I'm a much better person now.

  Brilliant, as always. Still have video 2 to watch. I like the "Speaking ill of Stephen Fry is forbidden in law..." at 7:13.

  required watching as part of the middle school curriculum

  Yes indeed. That, and played subliminally during American Idol.

  What benefit is all the power of people's lives to the Governing Body?

  by TimothyT in

  if the 7 million jw's mindlessly follow the governing body (which the majority do), of what benefit is it to the governing body?

  that power over people's lives is nothing to boast about in my books.

  i conclude that the only reason they so desire this power is because it brings money, authority and security to them.

  Its a VERY slimy way of living - manipulating others in order to keep yourself safe and secure.

  I agree with your sentiment Tim. Not sure of the real motives behind the WT but if you look around, manipulation and control for betterment of "self" is common. Think big oil companies (BP, Haliburton) banking system, Walmart and so on...those are certainly about money. Seems logical that it could be applied to JWs, Mormons or Scientologists too. But perhaps more so, a thirst for control?

  that it's "jewel-ry"... and not "joo-lery" (may you all have peace!)?

  i know, i know... very small potatoes in the grand scheme of things.

  but, dang, if you're gonna host a television jewelry show, shouldn't you at least be able to say "jewelry"?

  In Canada...its JEWEL-LERY....same same, different spelling. Like labour and colour. IMO, the extra letters are a pretentious waste of time.

  Like others have said, you're on the radar now for sure. BUT perhaps if you drop it completely, tell him you had a bad day and we're frustrated or something, it'll cool off. Wiggle out of what you already wrote. Then fade, with mouth wide shut. Good luck.

  Or...go guns a blazin'

  "for the first time in human history a dinosaur fossil is presenting us with the opportunity to see what a living dinosaur looked like.

  in 2001 a field research team unearthed the worlds most complete dinosaur fossil, a brachylophosaurus nicknamed leonardo.

  this incredible dinosaur has all of its skin covering its body, missing only a bit on the head and tail.
