ok make sure that your num lock key is on. you have to use the keypad, you can't use the numbers up top on the keyboard. without touching any keys on the keyboard just press down and hold down the Alt key, while holding it, then use the key pad and press sequentially 0153. after you have entered the last digit (don't hold down the last digit make sure you let go of it) you should still be holding the Alt key, and then finally let go of the Alt key and it will pop up.

Shunned again today
by punkofnice inas i walked through the streets of my hometown i walked past a 'sister'tm).
at first i didn't recognize her as i wasn't paying attention.. she sort of gave me a bit of a smile (or did she have wind/gas?).
after i has passed her, it dawned on me who it was.. i'd given her family lifts to meetings and socialised with them.. i then realized she'd shunned me.

punk: not sure if you knew this already, but if you want to use the official tm and r, try holding down the alt key while you also press the numbers sequentially 0153 and 0174 then let go

How Could Jesus Be A Perfect Human When...?
by OneStepOut93 inhow could jesus have been a perfect human on earth if he was born from mary?
doesn't thewatchtower believe since we are all sons and daughters of adam and eve, that we are all genetically imperfect?
so if mary also came from adam and eve like the rest of us but gave birth to jesus then wouldn't jesus have been born imperfectlike the rest of us?.

Found a scripture where Jesus is clearly manipulating people
by cptkirk init's a scripture that is very well known (at least among witnesses) , relatively well known.
it is clearly manipulative, and the irony being that i've seen an elder use it for his own manipulative purposes as well....in a similar circumstance that jesus used it in.
when you look at it again, you may not have seen it this way, but you will now.. i am not trying to put jesus on trial here, simply trying to point out something that is very obvious, and yet most people probably never stepped back and realized what he was actually doing here.. it is mark 6. they are stumbling over jesus (spiritually stumbling), so did he say a prayer for their hearts to be opened?

you realize tec is a female, notice the flower and all of that? you couldn't phrase your words in a little bit more of a palatable way? the same extremism that you condemn, be careful that you do not yourself go down the same path on the polar opposite side of the equation.

i am somewhat confused on what you are saying tec. i understand the concept of a person taking a passage from the bible and manipulating for their own interests--but this scripture is strictly indicative of christ's position, not anyone taking his words out of context right?
and btw tec the sentence that you quoted me on, i mainly said that because when i clicked on the url that mp posted, i saw it was like 30,000 words. so, my main point was, i'm not going there because i've looked at the details and formed conclusions...i don't need to re-visit the entire thing at that level.

i understand your position--if you notice i said "as long as we remain...." leaving a window open for evolution later.

there are a decent amount of people on this board who know more than i do about this, but i do know a lot; my statements may seem glib, but they are based on a lot of reading and researching. i've come to pretty clear conclusions as the last sentence in my post before this indicates. as long as we remain a society repeating the same errors of aggression and hatred and so forth(esp. with the weapon capabilities that we have), we need a jesus even if he is just a parable. apparently even the military agrees with me; gunnery sgt hartman didn't like private joker's comments on the virgin mary too much (every vet i've ever talked to said that film was a dead ringer too). even they know without some kind of balancing force, we will go into a nuclear ww3.

i don't want to be seen as attacking christ, i like his teachings in general. i saw someone posting about iran and nuclear war; spirit of the jungle was fine 300 years ago, but spirit of the wolf in the hands of men wielding nuclear weapons, means we are all dead. even underground, the private underground facilities aren't going to keep people safe too long...the govt ones may. there is wisdom in christ(even if he was a fable), unfortunately there are a ton of contradictions, and i've seen where blind obedience leads.

it is mark 6. they are stumbling over jesus (spiritually stumbling), so did he say a prayer for their hearts to be opened? or did he realize that they were obstinate and go to the next place, neither. he used a clear manipulation tactic.
they had pretty much decided that they weren't into what he was up to, and after voicing this he then spoke regarding the prophet not being honored in his hometown, and this apparently allayed them to some extent. just picture that though, i'm getting the feeling you aren't into my preaching, so i'll tell you that a prophet isn't honored in his hometown? oh ok, yea you're right, you're good to go, go ahead.
and then it clearly even states that he "wondered" about them.....none of this sounds very spiritual to me.

Just wanted you to know, none of you are intriguing. Rather, you're all quite repulsive.
by Theocratic Sedition innot saying that's my personal opinion, but this week's congregation bible study asks the viewpoint question, "would apostate literature or internet sites intrigue you or repulse you?
"- jeremiah book, page 70, para 7. .
gotta love it.. i guess apostate sites are like crime scenes.
