My first hand experience locking them up in the county jail is, they suck their thumbs when they sleep.
And they wet their pants at night.
If I see them suckng their thumbs at night, I end up having to give them clean drawers.
And I look at their charges and they have animal cruelity and abuse on them.
David Icke.
I read about 4 of this books about 10 years ago.
He is not good about documentation and footnotes.
He trys to be a reality writter but is more fantasy fiction.
If you are familiar with the bible, then things he says will resonate.
Icke is like Alex Jones but much more loosely wraped.

Sitchin has much better documentation for alien intervention.
I think Icke read and heard about a lot of things and forgot to or doesn't know
how to footnote and document.
He was a soccer player/ sportscaster who tried to find a better way to make a buck.
i believe that the older you are the harder it is to leave the watchtower.. .

what do you call a person who keeps promising to do something for you--but won't get up off their ass and do it?.
what do you call a person who needs money from you all the time and doesn't pay it back?.
what do you call a person who keeps you waiting and waiting and then, they don't show up?.
I call them trouble and history.
They are not in my life.
here is a personal question:.
is it disturbing to you when an author jumps into the flow of history and radically departs in order to drive an important lesson home to the reader?.
in this novel i have several watch tower leaders meeting incredibly violent deaths at the hands of --well, i won't give anything away.
Terry it sounds like you are writing historical fiction.
My favorite author in that genre is James Michner
Have you read him, Terry?
It seems like you are already inspired and motivated.
I was just wondering if you have been inspired by Michner.
I'm not much for reading fiction, but when I do, I read James Michner.
He has a format that he follows in many of his novels that is enticing and works and captivates
over and over again.
To bad hes dead.
i think we are already living in the age where there can be no new religions.
we have access to information like never before and anyone claiming revelations of something new and starting a whole new religion can easily be discredited.. christianity and islam may continue to subdivide but i think we've pretty much seen the end of anything new in terms of a new belief system.. .
what are your thoughts on this?.
There is a saying "There is a sucker born every minute"
By David Hannum. And I think there are a lot of wolfs aware of it.
I think there is always room for new and better religions, Like Scientology.
The founder said a person could make a million dollars by starting a religion.
i'm not talking about a individual, but a congregation as a whole.. i'm talking about a brother or sister that really hit hard times.. have there ever been an occasion where the brothers (elders).
decided to dip into the kh funds and help one in need????.
example, brother loose his job, get evicted, family of four or.
There is an old blues song that the witnesses embrace.
"Nobody Knows you when your down and out."

Once I lived the life of a millionaire, spendin' my money I didn't careI carried my friends out for a good time, buying bootleg liquor, champagne and wineWhen I begin to fall so low, I didn't have a friend and no place to goSo if I ever get my hand on a dollar again, I'm gonna hold on to it 'til them eagle's grinNobody knows you, when you down and outIn my pocket not one penny, and my friends I haven't any ...
i am inactive for about 10 years now..
Inactive since 83. Haven't been to a meeting since 83.
ot law required jews to take the lead in stoning a family member who became apostate.. the watchtower has lamented the fact that the law of the land now forbids them from doing so.. if the law permitted it, as it does in some musim countries, and if the watchtower required it, would your family obey?.
my parents are good people and i believe their love for me is genuine, but i think they would follow orders.. what about yours?.
My family is all out of the Watchtower.
Some of my wifes family is still in.
They probably would enjoy a good stoning.
i had been thinking about religion and religious services in general and perhaps i am just noticing it more because of my personal involvement but it seems that the jehovahs witness religion tends to have more incidents of mixed marriages where one partner is considered the unbelieving spouse than other religions or churches.
of course, i have not been to church is a while and even when i did go to church i found that there werent as many instances of a spouse going it alone in the church without their partner.
i guess that is partly why i got discouraged in going to church as i felt like i could only bring half my family to it.. the main thing i would like to discuss, though, is why does there seem to be a higher number of mixed marriages within this religion as opposed to other religions.
My father never was a JW.
And the congregation I went to back in the 50's -70's
a good number of the men, husbands were not witnesses.
I think the meetings were a way for the husbands to get a couple of nights and a day out
away from the family.
