Opportunity to ruin government statistics
Here's a novel idea...
As some of you may know there is a census coming around on August
the 7th. For those who don't know, a census is where the government
collates general information about it's residents (number of people
living in your house, religion, etc.)
If there are enough people in Australia who put down a religion
that isn't mentioned on the census form it becomes a fully
recognised and legal religion. It usually takes about 10,000 people
to nominate the same religion. It is for this reason that it has been
suggested that anyone who does not have a dominant religion to put
"Jedi" as their religion.
Send this on to all your friends and tell them to put down "Jedi" on
their census form. And remember, if you are a member of the
Jedi religion then you are by default a 'Jedi Knight'.
So...If this has been your dream since you were 4 years old, do it
because you love Star Wars. If not, then just do it to annoy
people or the Govenment, or because you think it would be fun.

two jw's knocked on my door peddling the watchtower and awake.
i was still in my satin pj's and had a tiara stuck on my head as i was playing make believe with my five year old.
i forgot i had it on, and they didn't seem to find that strange, lol.

I told them I am disassociated, figuring that would get rid of them quickly. (I'm really just inactive) But they kept on without a beat, asking if I'd like some brothers to come here to chat with me, and asking if I want to stay in that "condition". They also asked me if the local brothers know that a disassociated JW lives here. I told them I don't need anyone to come chat with me, and I am absolutely certain I would like to stay in this "condition" and no, the local bros don't know me. They seemed non-plussed about that, but took my word for it and told me to have a good day.
I was just wondering, because in America, they would have tried to back away from my evil apostate door as quickly as possible if I'd said that. These fella's just seemed to want to rehabilitate me, didn't mind it if I'd have chatted with them! They didn't look old enough to be elders.. one was pretty young, and the other looked old enough to be a MS. Weird, huh?

hi all.. just having my gripe for the day.. heh heh.
once upon a time, people had something called moral fibre.
they had ideals which they believed in.
HI TW, you voiced my feelings exactly. Although toward the end of the fracas, some did finally wade in and have a good say at the perpetrator, there were those who stood back and just let the chips fall, so to speak. That's where the hurt and disillusionment came in. I have since found out, that some didn't even know about it, and would have come to my defense had they known. But the entire thing just takes alot of energy out of a person. Sigh, I'm getting old and tired of slaying dragons! lol I just want to sit in my chair and crochet! hehe..

Thanks, Joel. I appreciate the kindness.

just wondering..... for those of us who are inactive, or have serious doubts, etc etc... are you going to the memorial, even though you don't fully agree with how they explain things?.
anyone planning to have their own at home?.
or are you still planning on going, even if it's to say g'day to long "lost" friends?.
Oh Frenchy!!!! Don't let 'em get away with that. You're much smarter than they are. Send 'em that registered letter that ties their hands!
Big Hugs,

TR, you have a very good, valid point. However, I'm not saying Clinton wasn't a sleazeball. Politics is full of 'em. I'm just saying he didn't hide it as well as Presidents in the past, due to not having as much control over information now. Viva la information superhighway.
