  JosephMalik,

  I'm currently running the '97 disc on XP. Would seem logical that the new one will run as well. I no longer have a source to supply me with one, so will be unable to confirm.

  "many religious scholars, though, see a broader definition of religion and the raelians fit it, they say, just as scientologists, jehovah's witnesses and mormons do.

  I was a Raelian once, but because of conflicting views, I was de-raeled.

  I think I would be wanting to ask dad a question or two concerning mom.

  Is the USA a bully?

  i was watching the news last night.

  the latest word from the war front is that we should be able to peaceably work out our differences with north korea.

  as humiliating as it will be for us to kiss north korea's ass, we will do so because they do have the ability to nuke our west coast.

  Want to close my posts to this thread by welcoming 'aojumper' to the fray of this conversation and thanking him/her for being willing to jump into such a topic as a 'newbie'(something I was unable to do). Hope you continue to post your opinions. It's not so much about being right or wrong(IMHO), but being able to express you opinion(without the threat of expulsion) here that is so great.

  in every congregation there is always a brother who gives a marathon prayer.

  in my congregation there was a brother whose prayers were so long that i decided to time his prayer with my watch.

  it lasted about 3-4 minutes.

  Imagine going through that everytime you ate dinner.

  Until I moved away from home, I had not had a hot meal in 12 years.

  Sorry, Yiz. Sometimes a person gets so vapor-locked in his own understanding of a particular thing that he thinks a responder thinks the same way.

  Let me back up a bit and ask you to tell me what you believe about the 'angels who forsook their own proper places' Jude(6) and 'Nephilim' statements in the bible(Gen 6:2-4). Who are the 'sons of the true God' at Gen 6:2?

  Again, my apologies for pre-supposing your beliefs.

  Hmmm "no one" Switzerland comes to mind!

  Yes, Aztec, Switzerland was my initial choice, but after looking at the 2002 JW publisher ratio for Switzerland and Anarctica, I opted for the latter.

  Do you think it was cause they wanted to try on a different lifestyle for size? or do you think it might be becuse the democratic life has far more benefits?

  Lesser of two evils.

  My question for all of you who post that the U.S. are bullies, which country do you want to live in?

  Anarctica

  Just because some of say that the US is a bully doesn't mean we don't mind living here. That would be like concluding an argument with your husband/wife with:

  "We just don't agree so I'm off to live with someone else."

  I have done a lot of things for this country, including killing those whom I had no animosity against. Just doing my job. That doesn't make it right, nor does it make me feel better. It was wrong before I became a JW; it is still wrong today, post JW. When you have to look down at a life you've taken, it kinda takes the urge outa kickin' someone's ass for ANY reason.

  aojumper said:

  WE are not just trying to protect our freedom, we are trying to protect innocent lives.

  More accurately, the US is trying to protect a way of life. Ask any black who was discriminated against back then. Ask any Indian who lost his land to being placed on a reservation. Can't get too pumped up about us beating the shit out of another country just cuz they are just now going through what the US went through ahead of them.

  The US is not God, capable of deciding what is right or wrong for the rest of the planet. Yet, I can't help but see the similarities between some of their posturing and the WT. A classic Bush statement,

  "Either you are with us or against us."

  The way of the US is the right way. Russia was the 'evil' empire according to Reagan; Bush has his 'axis of evil'. Yet, the US is so righteous. Can't wait until they start calling other countries that refuse to fall in line with their policies 'apostate'. They already practice shunning through sanctions; forgiven when the country repents and comes back into the US fold.
