What's wrong with putting down the system while milking it for everything it's worth? Since they render unto Caesar, they're entitled to that systems benefits.

Chef,
It's a big stretch to look at the scriptures you've quoted here and arrive at the conclusion that Jesus and Micheal are one and the same. You'd need something a little more definitive to convince me.

What IS Gods name anyway?
by NikL ini am sure this topic has been brought up many times here but i don't always have the oppertunity to read all the posts so i am going to raise it again.. i went to the meeting the other day with my wife and this came up in the talk.
the speaker saying how improtant it was to have the right bible to get the most out of bible reading.
the right bible being the nwt of course because it uses the divine name which we all know is jehovah...or yahweh.

Putting Something Back Into Society Now You're Out
by Englishman ini saw the film "pay it forward" some weeks ago.
now, whilst most of us stoical brits will snort somewhat at the emotional hokum, nonetheless the movie featured many salient points, not least the theory that humankind needs to put something back into society if it is to retain it's own sense of worth.. as it happens, i agree with that theory.
also, since leaving the jw's, i find that i have much more concern for the welfare of my fellow man than i used to have.

Welcome to the board Amiable, I see that was your first post. You got to remember us Canadians measure our temperature different. I don't know what your -8F would translate to in celsius. it's probably close to the same.

An opening page when people log on
by Kingpawn inwe all know that certain things happen on here frequently: some topics come up regularly, for example ("i'm dating/in love with a jw;" "oral sex;" and so on.
is it possible to compile a list of the most frequent thread titles/subjects and post a faq page, maybe with links to a sample of past threads on topic x, and tell people to click on there rather than begin a new, already-explored topic?
maybe a welcoming page explaining that this is an anti-jw site (the name would tend to give the opposite impression), a list of some of the rules such as bad language, duplicate accounts, trolling, an explanation of (and encouragement for using) the search feature, and other things that, again, seem to be mentioned often?

I don't have an opinion on an opening page but I don't think this is an anti-jw site. I think it's an everything-jw site... make of it what you will.

Hi Scully I'm surprised that news from this back-water actually reaches Ottawa, doesn't work that way when we gotta contact our MP's. Just want to update and clarify a few things.
It's only -25 here counting the windchill, it's been hovering aroud -15 most of the time. The amount of water flooded wasn't 40,000 gallons... it was 40,000,000 liters. People are allowed back now (no more free meals and TV). They've brought a bunch of dumpsters around and people are clearing out their basements. There are people from the city listing everything and insurance will be paid. Fortunately I've got nothing stored in the basement here, should have hung on to all those old Watchtowers and awakes, would have got paid for them.
My neighbours back yard had about a six" layer of water in it yesterday... now it's ice, solid. We're going to have a hockey game after supper tonite. He's planning on maintaining his rink now for the rest of the winter, every cloud has a silver lining.
