After being tangled up with the wtbts I will never become a part of organized religion again as long as I live. No sense in being taken advantage of twice. Bug

Bashing JW's?. Why not bash Christianity instead?
by anti-absolutism ini've read a lot of things on this and other web sites that condemn jw's, and i agree that jw's have a huge spiritual awakening coming to them, but i think christianity as a whole has that coming to them.. people have compared what they see in the jw org.
to the inquisition for example.
i agree, but have they forgotten that the inquisition and many other evil things have transpired during so-called christianity.

This is one of the top ten post I've read on this forum. Most of us can only dream of possessing your writing skills and your research is right on target. The fact that you and your husband stayed together despite the emotional stress you were under says a lot about your marriage. Please give us more in the future and don't worry about the length of the post. Bug

You must be feeling a lot of emotional pain right now, but please don't make the decision to leave until you have had a few days to cope with your loss. If help is need in this mourning process you know you have many friends here who will help in anyway possible. My sympathy to you and your family. Bug

I sure wish you assessment of these photos was correct, but I suspect you are looking a factories which make substances designed to kill. Please remember Iraq is closer to the UK than to the US.

The US case before the UN
by Yerusalyim inafter watching powell today, i'm more convinced than ever.
i think that those oppossed to the war will not be swayed at all, but i also think that most of those who were trully sitting on the fence will be convinced.
convinced of saddam's violation of un resolution 1441, and convinced of saddam's connection with terrorism.

Elswhere, "on or before" leaves you a whole lot of wiggle room. I'm saying Feb. 16th the air war will start at midnight. Course I didn't say which year or which war. Bug

Morality/Ethical question...all life equal??
by SpiceItUp inwhen the shuttle broke apart in the sky over texas the whole world stopped.
i just came from our lunch break room where the tv was turned to the channel (maybe all have it on) covering the memorial service of the astronauts that died.. i thought back to a conversation i had with my mother the other day.
she made the point that we all stopped our lives a bit by this disaster whereas the 7-100 (at least) people that die in traffic accidents etc on a daily basis are no more mourned than maybe with a blip in the newspaper and the close family and friends.. the i thought back to "the practice" that i watched last night.

how do we decide who deserves to be mourned longer or bigger?
No one is forced to mourn anyone, that is an individual choice. As far as to how long, also your own personal choice. Personally, I will mourn someone I have a connection with, family, friends, and even one of the persons aboard Columbia, Rick Husband by name a lot longer than I would a stranger. Colonel Husband grew up in Amarillo, some fifty miles from where we currently live and by all accounts, was a very fine fellow. Bug
