Interesting how some are prepared to make decisions for others, and see it as some kind of virtue.

Got caught throwing magazines in the trash
by unbeliever ini had to take my dad to the va hospital for a doctor's appointment and in almost every waiting room there was magazines not even recent issues.
you have to wait for freaking ever at the va hospital so i decided to do my civic duty and i went around this huge hospital collecting magazines and would throw them in the nearest trash can.
nobody cared until i got on the 4th floor.

There is an enormous difference in congregations. That's why some have trouble believing some of the things they hear. I knew of one congregation in South Dakota where you would be counseled if you were heard to laugh out loud, the coldest place I ever experienced. And yeah, I've been in congregations that had Elders that at least bordered on groovy. Saw one bunch singing pretty decent 60s and 70s rock at a gathering a few years ago, some visiting from neighboring congregations just about fainted when they saw that stuff going on. The PO was a dancing fool as well.

Hidden Images; last time.
by Hunyadi inthanks again to all those who responded with an open mind to my postings regarding hidden images in the wt publications, but wow, i have heard from some pretty forceful personalities who are apparently still pissed off about getting duped by the wtbts.
so many flames, so many flamers .
calm down, get some pot, get some beer, get some therapy, but please get over it and yourselves.

Speaking of hair, this whole discussion makes me want to pull mine out. I bet you folks (not seven or bendrr) play your records backwards as well. I understand that if you play Kingdome Melodies No. 3 backwards it's the complete text of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. No. 5 is the score from a whole bunch of Cheech and Chong movies. The rest are just ordinary devil worshipping stuff.

Six you wouldn't like to make a little wager on Clark would you? He's more of a loose cannon than Dean, and he will go no where.
You're right on about the nauseating pandering though!

I don't care if the guy knows anything about the Bible or not. I do care that he is engaging in a phony and sudden religiosity to make himself more electable. I don't think he's electable anyway, and this charade won't help him a bit. He's the best thing that ever happened to Bush.

Details on Files Kept in the Cong.
by Blueblades inwhat exactly is put into the file on those who are disfellowedshipped?is the information very detailed,so that others can read such details,or is it just that they have been disfellowedshipped.. for example:suppose someone have been df.for a sexual matter,brother or sister.are the details descriptive of what was committed or is just that they were df.i know that on the outside of the envelope the name is posted and that's it.but if someone were to open the folder and look inside can they get the detailed information on that person?.
when do the elders destroy such folders?can a person who no longer wishes to come back get their records and destroy them themselves?.

Remember that LittleToe is talking about the Data Protection Act in the UK. There is no such legal protection in the US.

Lately Dean has been trying to portray himself as a religious individual. The following is interesting:
Asked his favorite New Testament book, Dr. Dean named Job, adding: "But I don't like the way it ends." "Some would argue, you know, in some of the books of the New Testament, the ending of the Book of Job is different," he said. "I think, if I'm not mistaken, there's one book where there's a more optimistic ending, which we believe was tacked on later."
