  JC Cannon got banned from here for um, threatening people.

  "How come you haven't been banned yet for threatening to rip people's faces off?" she asked as she backed away from the cage.

  Um, JD? FYI, FS has much glory. You haven't a clue as to what you are missing.

  BTW, I am her prophet. You had better be careful with the blaspemy or I will be forced to summon a lion to lay bare your bones.

  The article, while interesting, came about 30 years too late. I've had to deal with some of the little snots who think all they have to do is show up at work, at whatever time they feel like it. And they never can be trusted to do the job correctly. They all think they are brilliant and it always shocks them when you have to fire them.

  Why does the WTBS hate sex so much?

  2. friends

  now i know they try to control everything and pretty much ban anything.

  but sex seems to be somthing they can't stand and would like to get rid of completly if they could.

  so many articles and so much conusel about not having sex or having anything to do with sex from any angle at all.

  I do not know of any modern day church that condones sex except within the confines of marriage. Care to enlighten me?

  Leec:

  that, as long as we continue bowing to the Wall Street lobbyists, continuing to allow derivatives markets to run rampant with zero regulation or even visibility (which is still the case to this day!), we will see repeats of the meltdown of 2007, again and again and again.

  My fiance was saying something similar. Hey, I missed your link to the documentary. Could you repost it? Thanks.

  Do you prefer to sit on the pew in a church or on the regular Kingdom Hall seat?

  i hate to sit on the pew.

  i prefer to sit on the regular kingdom hall seat.

  do you think it might be a good subtle reason for some people to convert their religion to jw?

  hi all - beware, long post comming up!.

  i've always been a person who 'needed to know'.

  as a born in i felt incredibly lucky that my parents and grandparents had found 'the truth' - no need to struggle to 'break free from babylon's bondage' for me!

  I agree with CyberJesus. You will have to re-learn everything but it can be very exciting. It does get better. I promise you.

  if not, what is your favorite topic to discuss?.

  I get tired of the newbie "Help! I'm in Love with a JW" threads. The public bleeding is embarrassing and usually they are written by somebody that seems just as controlling as the JW partner they are complaining about.

  Yes, thank God all economists agree on everything, and there is no room for interpretation in such an exact science.

  LOL. My fiance loves a smart ass as much as I.

  I've noticed the same myself. I wish Christians would stop living for the world to come and get busy in the here and now.
