What would Watchtower Corporation(tm) do?
by punkofnice inwhat would watchtower corporation(tm) do in compromise of their 'north korean style rules' if by publicly removing them, they could get more money and power?.
if each governing body(tm) member (pee be upon them), were offered a few million quid/bucks each to rescind the barbaric 'no whole blood' rule?.
i know what i think these fake religionists would do.

Jesus 2nd Coming
by punkofnice infull disclosure, i am an atheist/slight agnostic and really don't believe in god/s.. however, i do find solace in a good evensong at the cathedral.
because one of my kids came with me, it has inspired him to become a christian and hence got baptised in a uk high church (anglican cum catholic hybrid).. so, i take him to visit different places eg, ely cathedral.
he likes me to accompany him to his new church.

i can't remember the number he stated), jehovah's witnesses(tm) in japan.'.

What does the Bible really teach the GB?
by punkofnice ingalatians 5:19-21 nivthe acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like.
i warn you, as i did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of god.. .

Real Book titles
by punkofnice ini wonder if real book titles should be entitled according to our opinions?.
eg.. plato's republic.
i'd call it: some geezer in a toga mincing around a pond talking idealistic nonsense.
