  George Bush's excuse is good enough for me !

  i am really excited by george bush's latest reason for bombing iraq: he's running out of patience.

  for some time now i've been really pi##ed off with mr johnson, who lives a couple of doors down the street.

  well, him and mr patel, who runs the health food shop.they both give me queer looks, and i'm sure mr johnson is planning something nasty for me, but so far i haven't been able to discover what.. i've been round to his place a few times to see what he's up to, but he's got everything well hidden.

  I have a neighbor that thinks bad things about me. He hasn't said anything, but I know what he's thinking.

  He'll regret that.

  Your prediction for when the bombs drop

  the last war with iraq started the night of the last chance to comply.

  when do you predict this one will start?

  my guess?

  I think since we're just getting the inspectors out that it won't start for a few days. I can't see it going much longer than two weeks. I doubt it will last more than a month, at most.

  Here we go... War with Iraq.

  judging by bush's recent comments and the recommendation that the un inspectors leave iraq, it looks like the war will be starting any day now.. i wonder if bush intentionally timed it so that things would be starting on st. patricks day the day that commemorates the saint who drove the snakes from ireland.

  The UN inspectors are leaving and after today there is no more stateside communications with the toops there. It is going down soon. No 11th hour stopping this I fear.

  What if Elizabeth Smart were one of Jehovah's Witnesses?

  by Big Tex in

  i read in the paper this morning that the mormon church considers elizabeth smart to be "pure before god.

  " i couldn't help but wonder if elizabeth smart were one of jehovah's witnesses, what the elders' reaction would be?

  do they take the attitude that she was raped?

  Well the JW"s could forgive Elizabeth Smart, as long as she told the elders what sort of underware she was wearing and any other assorted details they might require.

  Regardless of what went down it's good she's home.

  I was never very clever with dating two at a time. Usually I'd just be quiet about it but then I'd be saying things that got me into trouble, such as who I saw what movie with. But that was during the stage when I was trying to be a nice guy and having trouble pulling it off.

  When I spent a few years as a scub bag and was very open about what I did it seemed, for some reason, to make me more attractive to women. Go figure.

  I suggest being honest about whatever you do.

  Those guys would have loved Hoosters. I'm not so sure their parents would appreciate me taking them there. Well some wouldn't mind.

  Yep, that's a leftover tie from the JW wars. I had been counseled a couple of times about those darn colorful ties with colored shirts. My standard response was "I'm trying hard not to look like a morman".

  Elders coming...i'm shaking in my boots...NOT! Any help?

  by searchfothetruth in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i had a phone call last night from one of the elders asking if they can come around.

  when i asked him why he said it was to discuss whether i would be interested in having a study.. this is strange as i have been baptised since i was 14 and left about 4 years ago and have had little contact with any witnesses except my parents, but, the only thing that has changed over the last few weeks is that i put together a 50 page report documenting a range of subjects including the un involvment etc and give it to my mum.

  then within a week the elders want to ask my to have a study!.

  So the society are false prophets aren't they? No, they were just over enthusiastic

  You have to remember that the society changed the meaning of the word prophet to teacher. They are God's teachers not God's predictors. Nice try

  What is stopping you from starting a new Topic? Get to it.......

  I think I did, in the middle of this thread, but it appears that this thread can't be hyjacked. You guys are too busy bitching each other out to notice. And I mentioned shania and faith for crying out loud. So who's gay now????

  why not focuse that rage on people harming innocent children.

  Sheila I couldn't agree more. Why in fact we're seeing some rage in this thread based on different opinions.

  Now picture Shania Twain and Faith Hill rolling around together in a wading pool full of wesson oil. Yeah, that's pretty disgusting isn't it. heh heh

  Did you leave the Borg 'in search of truth' or 'freedom from rules'?

  by BLISSISIGNORANCE in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this question is not to offend anyone, it's just that i have noticed people have many different reasons for leaving the borg and i thought it would be interesting to find out why some of you left.. for example:some leave because they want to be free to smoke, drink, gamble, fornicate, grow beards, celebrate xmas, take blood and drugs, etc.some leave because they never believed and now are old enough to do as they want.some leave because they have seen that they can be happy living life free from any religious organization, yet still feel safe in god's love.some have been hurt by the borg and have taken their wounds away to lick them, waiting to see justice.some have trusted the borg with their lives, time and money...........only to discover recently that there has been lies, cover-ups and hypocracy in the borg.

  now they have left but need to belong to another organization to feel happy.. i left the borg because i found out about the cover-ups and lies.

  my family was abused by it, my child was sexually abused and i was df'ed.

  I sure don't need any organization to feel happy. Being out of that one is reason enough to be happy.
