Attention Lurkers- Consider the effectiveness of your lifesaving work
by stuckinamovement inhypothetical scenario.
you are a city manager in a major metropolitan city with a population of 3,000,000.. .
if the governing body was truly convinced themselves of the impending disaster and the fact that the end is imminent would they not focus their efforts in spreading the message through effective means such as telephone, television, internet, social networks etc?

Thinking about presenting a speach to the City Council of my town
by sabastious inthe city council of my town in california has banned marijuana collectives after allowing 16 to put up shop and provide for patients.
the ordinance will go through dec 1st and it will be illegal to setup a collective beyond that date.. i am thinking about becoming an activist for medicinal marijuana and i wrote this speach.
i have never spoke before a council before, so i thought posting it here first would break the ice for me.. let me know what you think, if you agree/disagree and why.. .

Wonderful post....makes me sad to hear about your childhood. I guess I can be thankful that I was always bigger than most kids, which kept my bullying down.
Sometimes I do get a bit of pride from being and EX-JW. I do feel very at home on this site. 'We're EX-Witnesses, we speak out with fearlessness, ours is the understanding of false prophecy, we know the end will never come to be...'

What are the best Bible Translations?
by Londo111 ingrowing up in a jw family, my parents and my grandparents had many versions of the bible...not just the new world translation.
sometimes i read these.
but i always bought the hype that the new world translation was the most unbiased and most consistent in rendering hebrew and greek into the modern language.

00Dad your read on this is wrong....probability dictates that with the thousands of galaxies and billions of stars we are going to have planets that are of similar size and composition to earth. Rather than using your critical thinking skills here, you are boged down in dub thinking.

Atheists are as trustworthy as rapists
by rebel8 inso say the xian participants in studies described in a recently published article in a professional journal.. abstract.
distrust of atheists generalized even to participants from more liberal, secular populations.
a description of a criminally untrustworthy individual was seen as comparably representative of atheists and rapists but not representative of christians, muslims, jewish people, feminists, or homosexuals.

Wondering about your vote
by free2beme inanyone out there going to support obama and vote for him in 2012. i think it is time for change, and i hope in the second term he brings that change.
as he sure has not nothing in the last four years, and ruined this country and made it a mess while he blamed bush.
which, as we know, is a change from the rest of not taking blame themselves.
