  Weather question

  by Robdar in

  2. friends

  we have some sort of ice falling in kc.

  we are not having a thunder storm that i know of (no lightning, thunder) so i am assuming it is sleet since it is 39 degrees according to my outdoor gauge.

  has anybody ever seen dime size sleet?

  Sounds like what Canadian weathermen refer to as freezing rain pellets.

  should shunning be reversed?

  by kls in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it is so sad when i read threads of persons finding their in a cult, and want out .problem ,their family will shun them and ignore there own children and close family members.what if things were reversed?

  what if the person leaving this cult shunned their loved ones, letting them know they are being brainwashed and you don't want their sick beliefs being pushed on them all over again.

  i do believe cult members enjoy shunning , it makes them feel superior and they feel they are taking a strong stand just like the gb says to do .give them a taste of what they dish out ,shun the jw, if they won't convert to using their own mind, shun them with out guilt .

  I personally don't care if there are spies here. There's a greater chance of them acquiring my beleifs than of me re-acquiring theirs. If they want to look in on us, maybe they'll learn something.

  Origins of SHOCK AND AWE

  by chachasmum in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the basis of hitler's blitzkrieg, march 14, 2003 .

  reviewer: a reader from langley, va, united states shock and awe were the foundational concepts put forth by hitler's military leaders as a new and lethal way of rapidly overwhelming opponents.

  setting aside considerations of the violence visited on civilians and non-combatants or the damage done to infrastructure, hitler suggested that inducing "shock and awe" through his "lightning war" system would lead to rapid military victories.

  To attempt to win a war quickly is not repulsive. The term 'shock and awe' was never used by any one in the third Reich. What was repulsive was the deeds done behind the front lines. The majority of the soldiers in the German army were good honourable people, blitzkreig was an effective military policy. The majority of the atrocities were performed by the SS well behind the front lines. Most good military commanders learn tactics by studying successful engagements in history. I see nothing repulsive in this.

  Any Homebrewers here? (more OT fluff)

  by Bendrr in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i finally broke down yesterday and "did something".

  i did manage to last until about 5 pm, doing nothing.. i drove down to a homebrew supply shop and bought my first beer-making kit.

  i've read the directions several times, as well as done some research on the net so i feel fairly confident that i can do it.

  brewing beer (and drinking it) has long been a hobby of mine. I put down on average 6 x 24 cases every month. Anybody who has any questions feel free to ask me.

  War is a tragic reminder that only Christ is able to establish world peace!

  by Derrick in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the truth is that humanity needs the god who created this vast universe -- who is known as allah to many, and jehovah to many, or worshipped under a myriad of other names but indeed is but one -- to eliminate the forces of evil in this world through his son, jesus christ.

  as a matter of fact, the bible promises christ will reign as king on his throne from the heavens for the millennium it shall take to establish world peace.. if you are visiting this site out of curiosity about the beliefs of jehovah's witnesses and have this sinking feeling of dispair in your heart as this world descends into social and economic conflict and chaos, then you should be aware that a higher intelligence is about to intervene and save mankind from extinction.

  that intelligence created this universe and its laws of physics to house intelligent life, and what you simply know as "love" eminated from this intelligence!

  The watchtower had foreknowledge of WWI via Russell, WWII via Rutherford and has foreknowledge of WWIII which is triggered by "an incident in Basrah". How and why the corporate watchtower executives know is a subject I recommend you research.

  You don't really belive this do you? Originally the watchtower had predicted that 1914 marked the end of man's rule on earth, the end of the gentile times, and that Christ's presence had started in 1874. The fact that WWI started was just a coincidence that helped justify thier chosen date. Over the years they have selected many other dates in which nothing significant happened, and these dates were then discarded. If you throw enough darts you'll eventually get a bullseye.
