what happens if someone actually takes the bible serious?
really acts upon its message?
history have provided us with many examples of this and the watchtower societies second president personally had one particularly spectatcular go at it.. the watchtower society second president j. f. rutherford was in a hurry to get the new system going while he was still alive.
Ah...the possibilities...
Christians stop having children
Maybe then one day we folks here in the south could buy beer on Subday afternoons. Or maybe we could even go shopping before 1:00 pm on that holiest of days.
since the faithful wanted a nice armageddon movie:.

...who am i to deny this public service???.
More fun than playing Quake!
Maybe you could come up with some online multiplayer levels? lol
:)
dont you know that there is no more important magazine on the earth today then the watchtower magazine?.
as we know it is in that very magazine jehovah makes his official notifications to mankind.
since jehovah apparently isnt at all interested in reaching all of mankind he isnt using tv or radio.
I'm personally waiting for:
The "Dubba Dubba Dubba Ya T" network.
Instead of the dancing frog, they could have a dancing cartoon Fred!

i wonder what the percentage is of ex-jws who become involved in other organized religions.
i had a discussion with a psychiatrist friend recently.
he told me that i am a "psychiatric anamoly," that most "devout" people who leave a religion will join another and become as devout in their new religion.
All of my life I have been taught and taught others of the faults in other religions. Everything that I learned about these religions seemed to be pretty obvious. When I was d'fd, it took about 2 or 3 years to realize that the organization was just as false. So then I was stuck...nobody had the "truth". The only thing that made sense to me was that all of it was something that man had made up to feel better, and have something to hope for after death.
there is a local staircase company owned by on filthy rich jw.
they have a billboard advertising "experienced stair builders or installers needed--aplly within" i have experience.
i should go in with a tape recorder and apply.

I should go in with a tape recorder and apply. When they say "But Chris, you are disfellowshipped" I pull out my tape recorder and ask for a settlement. I think it would work!
The owners son used to work there and once he was d'fd his dad fired him, he threatened lawsuit based on religious discrimination if his dad didn't give him a fat severance check. He did.
Any thoughts from you guys?

today marks the 21st anniversary of my being disfellowshipped.. i suppose that makes me an adult apostate?
No more getting your hand stamped when you go to all those apostate bars! Happy 21st!
Hippi,
It was such a long presentation, but about an hour and a half into it there was a Lt. Col. that said he participated in the cover up of a crash in Norway or somewhere, where they recovered the craft and several bodies. Of course, they killed the only survivor of the crash.
wow, that was a long video...
I think that they would say that demons are trying to make people believe in aliens so that we don't believe in god.
But we all know the truth right? Rusell was host to a parasite alien that he pick up while studying the pyramids. At baptism they secretly put these aliens into your body, and it's all a big form of invasion. Fortunately, a few of our bodies rejected the parasite and were disfellowshipped.
hi everyone, i was just thinking that the whole satan going against god is completely unrealistic.. if u find yourself created by god and at his side, the last thing u wanna do is upset him, let alone make an enemy of him!!!!!!!.
does anyone else find this concept absurd?!?!?!!!!.
chris.
You know, I'm a pretty greedy person. Jealous too.
I can't imagine challenging some almighty immortal creature larger than life. The Devil does exist! I used to be married to her.
