Oh shit, happyfying? Really? As in the verb to happyfy? That's just too funny. The cretins are even butchering the English language. Sounds a lot like happyfied horseshit.

A roaring current of change.... Is The Watchtower in the process of a major overhaul of their religion?
by koolaid-man ina roaring current of change..... what is going on at the world headquarters of jehovah's witnesses?
in the last couple of years unprecedented changes in policy, procedure, and doctrine have been coming forth in rapid fire sequence.
this uninterrupted episode of new information is beginning to backfire for the rank and file witnesses.

So me, of all people, had a religious experience
by sabastious ini was sitting in my garage, as i often do, to chill out and i actually ended up becoming angry.. so here i am, in my garage, kicking it on the stool for the drum set that is in there (i am a pianist/composer, not a drummer).
i start to think about all the crazy stuff that transpires on this planet.
we have all seen shows and heard stories or maybe even witnessed events that don't add up.

Methinks thou dost protest too much, journey-on. You seem quick to label those who propose an alternate perspective from yours as intolerant and pushy. Your post positively drips with negative emotion, and I have yet to meet anyone who drips negative emotion who is really happy. Yes, I do think you are irrational for what you believe as you must think I am irrational for what I believe. So, no insult intended. It's just an observation I have of you. All that remains is being civil toward one another and try to have an adult conversation, preferably using our brains.

Watchtower 1999 10/1 p. 8 par. 13 Of course, the fact that Jehovah?s servants "weep" over the sorry state of world affairs does not preclude their being happy. On the contrary! They are actually the happiest group of people on earth.
Oh geez, did they actually publish that?

Since this was my emotional experience it is biologically impossible for you to make such a statement about it. This is a mystery to me therfore it is a mystery; a simple truth that you are choosing to ignore in the anove quote.
Whatever you say, Sab. Nothing offensive intended. I have a way of suppressing my emotions so I don't always empathise with people who are more influenced by them than I am. Didn't mean to rain on your parade.

Perhaps not sooner7nc. It's just that judging by his picture, Shamus is not only an orangutan, he is also a very young organgutan, around the same age as this one:
but, perhaps, it's an earlier picture that he's sentimental about.

Seriously, I don't do babysitting well at all. And I do not do diapers.

Nope. Shamus will just have to play with himself, which I am certain he does all the time. I've got some adult stuff that needs doing today.

Did someone leave the front gate open?
Shamus, you are apparently suffering from a crisis of identity, or perhaps just from ignorance. You are an orangutan, I am a bonobo. We are apes. Neither of us is a monkey. You can tell the difference between monkeys and apes quite easily, because we have no tails while monkeys do. Reach around back of yourself and give it a little feel. No, not in front, Shamus, that's something else. In back. Feel anything? No? See? You're an ape. A dumb ape, but an ape nevertheless. Now, go outside and play. Good boy.

If they're happy, what's it matter to anyone else?
That's actually a good question, DOC, but what is the cost of that happiness? The cost to the individual happy Witness is substantial in itself, loss of identity, loss of freedom of thought, movement and expression, loss of some of the greater pleasures in life, loss of friends and family who have broken away. There is also a cost to others. Call it collateral damage. The shunned ones, the children whose lives were sacrificed to the blood idol by their parents, the older people who didn't get married and have children themselves because of the hollow promise that the New System was just around the corner and whose generation did indeed "pass away", the non-JW spouses and children who are denied a normal life against their will. From my perspective, the happiness of someone matters a great deal if it depends on consuming the lives of themselves and others.

First I can't believe I read all of this thread. Second - I'm not going to lock it
We all thank you, Lady Lee, for your tolerance. It has been an interesting thread, indeed.
