hi everyone.... i was "raised" as a dub and got baptised in '86...so in total i had been a jw for over 20 years.
i came to realize that the "way of life" i was living was in fact made up of mostly lies.
i started "questioning" the borg about 6 years ago and finally came out with almostatheist last sept. i know in my heart that they are mostly wrong and very legalist.
I quit smoking about a year ago. Even though I know it is bad for my health and it is a stinky nasty habit, I still want one every once in a while. I can't help but think about what it would be like to smoke one again. The same thing happens when you quit the Watchtower.

this has nothing to do with witnesses, but it's driving me nuts.
the new burger king commercial has to be the strangest commercial i've ever seen.
i can't help but watch it every time just trying to figure it out.
Aude,
It's the commercial with Hootie, the lead singer from Hootie and the blowfish, dressed up as a cowboy singing about the bacon cheddar ranch sandwich on some dream-like ranch complete with Dallas Cowboy chearleaders and playboy models swinging buckets of ranch dressing while they lick it off of their fingers.
Valis,
That's a nice caboose.

as john day discusses in his book on the god moloch, it is well known that in jewish literature and in the nt, gehenna is a term for the fiery portion of the underworld where the resurrected dead are destined to be punished (e.g.
4 ezra 7:36; 2 baruch 59:10, 85:13; mark 9:43, 45, 47), and gehenna itself derives from the aramaic name for the valley of hinnom, gehinnam, the valley to the southeast of jerusalem.
as an eschatological term, gehenna is constantly associated with fires that bring punishment to the wicked.
Thanks, peacefulpete and Narkissos.
Both of your comments have been helpful.

toronto globe and mail | february 26, 2005:
paul william roberts in his globe and mail article of saturday, february 26, 2005 wrote the following:.
hunter telephoned me on feb. 19, the night before his death.
felt was hard evidence showing the towers had been brought down not by the airplanes that flew into them but by explosive charges set off in their foundations.
Explosives in the foundations?
I guess that fact that the towers collapsed from the top down somehow proves that there were explosives in the foundation.
Airplane hits building? building collapses?, why the big conspiracy?

the report below serves as an excellent example of the shallow understanding that people in general have regarding the so-called "star of bethlehem".
notice that the "star" is held in awe ... some sort of an object that satan himself caused to glow in the dark in order to cause the premature death of jesus.
satan's worst nightmare is jesus, was back then, and still is.
Schizm,
The first few chapters of the book of Matthew, including the narrative about the Magi, contain some of the most obvious exaggerations and inaccuracies to be found in the entire Bible.
Matthew starts off with the claim that throughout history the theme of 14 generations repeated itself until the time of Jesus.
17 So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David to the deportation to Babylon, fourteen generations; and from the deportation to Babylon to the Messiah, fourteen generations. Matt 1:17 (NRSV)
Apparently the author of Matthew couldn?t count. Not only does his claim conflict with other parts of the Bible, it conflicts with his own statements. He lists only 13 generations from Abraham to David, unless you count Abraham as the first generation. He next lists 14 generations from David to Jechoniah, but from Jechoniah to Jesus there are again only 13 generations.
Even more interesting is comparison of Matthew?s genealogy list with Luke?s list. In Luke, if we don?t count Abraham, there are 14 generations from Abraham to David. The difference is that Luke includes Arni and Admin in place of Matthew?s Aram. From this point on, things get even worse. In Luke, there are 42 generations from David to Jesus, compared to Matthew?s 27 generations
Starting at Matthew 1:22, the author attempts to portray the events of Jesus? birth and the events surrounding his birth as foretold through the prophets. This continues through Matthew 3:3.
22 All this took place to fulfill what had been spoken by the Lord through the prophet: 23 "Look, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall name him Emmanuel," which means, "God is with us." Matt 1:22-23 (NRSV)
5 They told him, "In Bethlehem of Judea; for so it has been written by the prophet: 6 'And you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are by no means least among the rulers of Judah; for from you shall come a ruler who is to shepherd my people Israel.'" Matt 2:5-6 (NRSV)
14 Then Joseph got up, took the child and his mother by night, and went to Egypt, 15 and remained there until the death of Herod. This was to fulfill what had been spoken by the Lord through the prophet, "Out of Egypt I have called my son." Matt 2:14-15 (NRSV)
17 Then was fulfilled what had been spoken through the prophet Jeremiah: 18 "A voice was heard in Ramah, wailing and loud lamentation, Rachel weeping for her children; she refused to be consoled, because they are no more." Matt 2:17-18 (NRSV)
22 But when he heard that Archelaus was ruling over Judea in place of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there. And after being warned in a dream, he went away to the district of Galilee. 23 There he made his home in a town called Nazareth, so that what had been spoken through the prophets might be fulfilled, "He will be called a Nazorean." Matt 2:22-23 (NRSV)
3 This is the one of whom the prophet Isaiah spoke when he said, "The voice of one crying out in the wilderness: 'Prepare the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.'" Matt 3:3 (NRSV)
In slightly more than one chapter, the author has presented 6 prophecies that have been fulfilled by the birth of Jesus. Like many of the authors from the first century, it seems obvious that he is not above exaggerating the truth to support his claims.
Moving on to the narrative about the Magi, it should be obvious to anyone in their right mind that you cannot follow a star to a specific location such as a town, much less a specific house in that town. The Magi would have known this. The story is pure fiction.
