  FSM: Austrian authorities accept colander as religious headgear

  this is google-translated from german.... a "pastafarian" insisted in having his license picture shot with a colander on his head.

  it's allowed (for muslims for example) to have ones head covered for legal documents if it is a religious practise.

  Tying Your Shoes With Modesty and Soundness of Mind

  by Franklin Massey in

  the lack of intellectually stimulating material within the jw religion right now is astounding.

  there is clearly a lack of spiritually dense material and a surplus of ridiculous, childish babble.

  the regular "food" that jws are being fed is illustratively equivalent to pureed baby food.

  Stuck, you had me going there! Excellent parody. The real irony is that it if it were a genuine directive it could have millions of men feeling guilty about the way they tie their shoes.

  PS In the late '50s early '60 there really was a serious issue about brothers wearing pastel dress shirts and the big knotted ties.

  Explanation of the image in Daniel

  hey everyone!.

  we just had our convention this weekend and heard the "new light" regarding the feet of the image in daniel.

  even the speaker made the comment that he had given that talk a number of times and didn't quite get it himself.

  Alfred,

  Actually the revealed spiritual food in due season explaning the Daniel image came in the early 60's ("Your Will Be Done on Earth") and it tapped into the sex appeal of the Cold War between the US and Soviet Union. This was very hot stuff at the time. Now, it is considered apostasy to even bring up that "old light".

  Activist and Folk singer Facundo Cabral killed in Guatemala

  by designs in

  1. social
  2. current

  he was a champion of human rights in central and south america.

  his famous song 'no soy de aqui ni soy de alla'- i'm not from here nor am i from there' is as famous in the spanish speaking world as fellow poet and activist jose marti's poem guantanamera was and made known here by folk singer and activist pete seeger.. these are the towering figures that keep dictatorships and right wing and left wing oligarchs on notice.

  cabral's voice will be sadly missed.. .

  My cousin and his wife have been in the CO work for at least 25 years. He is now 65 and is being treated for prostate cancer. I have no direct contact with him so I don't know what his living arrangements are, let alone his medical care. Just makes me sad to think about the buddy I grew up with now coming into 2012 and trapped in the Watchtower tar pit.

  Le' Miz erables ?

  It was only Old Testament kings who were indulged multiple women. Maybe something to do with being able to afford the upkeep of the wimmin and the offspring.

  No problem today for men to indulge their lust, we have the Great Society.
