  i loved this one movie with jim carry called "liar liar" and i always wished i could make the witnesses tell the truth in field service, just for one day.

  think about it, it would sound something like this.

  I found this quote:

  September 1885 Watch Tower (?)

  Consequently, there is ample evidence that the YMCA originated with religious objectives and continues to have such to this day. In joining the YMCA as a member a person accepts or endorses the general objectives and principles of the organization. He is not simply paying for something he receives, such as when buying things being sold to the public at a store. (Compare 1 Corinthians 8:10; 10:25.) Nor is his membership merely an entry pass, as when a person buys a theater ticket. Membership means that one has become an integral part of this organization founded with definite religious objectives, including the promotion of interfaith.

  Hence, for one of Jehovah's Witnesses to become a member of such a so-called "Christian" association would amount to apostasy.

  If anybody has more quotes - please let me know - thanks.

  I wonder how many folks from outside the NY area will show up. The more the merrier, but you got to give that one Spanish guy credit for protesting alone. Thanks for the article.

  Now you struck a nerve! This was one of the first flip flop issues that caught my attention, even before I started visting 'apostate' web sites. I sincerely kept asking folks, those same questions -

  "How many people DIED because of this POLICY?

  How many people were THROWN IN JAIL because of this POLICY?

  How many people are STILL IN JAIL because of this POLICY?"

  Now to mention, where's the apology?

  Everybody just told me, 'leave it in jah's hands.' I knew right there that something was wrong.

  I love the 'Worship Bk' quote (1983 Edition), Page 167: "An examination of the historical facts shows that not only have Jehovah's Witnesses refused to put on military uniforms and take up arms but, during the past half century and more, they have also declined to do noncombatant service or to accept other work assignments as a substitute for military service. Why? Because they have studied God's requirements and then made a personal, conscientious decision."

  Don't sleep on this issue folks, This ones a biggie - Thanks for the reminders UnD.

  Crazy - I agree totally with your statement "...I have to disagree with the idea that if you dont believe in something it doesnt exist." A case in point is animals - They have different senses that enables them to hear, feel, see, taste and smell things that we can't. The fact that we can't sense some things animals can sense does't mean it's non-existant.

  But I was talking in the content of Demons, etc. Personally, I don't believe it, thus it won't effect me. For a person that believes in the demons it's real to them. The mind controls everything. So the question is - Is the mnd everything?

  I love these two responses:

  "The demons stopped bothering me when I stopped believing in them."

  "Never experienced anything paranormal in nature. Guess Satan figured he already had me, so why waste demons on me."

  IMHO - I don't believe in them, they are real only if you believe it's real. 'Black' magic, Demons and stuff only works on folks who believe it works.
