sbf said:"I was just wondering. I am having a study again to become active. I want to get back in with the Witnesses. I want to try to get a position of responsibility in the congregation worldwide." i say: good grief.
That explains something. He's back to being a JW troll, instead of merely a fence-sitting troll. Good - I can stop being nice to him, now!
i've gotten the impression that gambling is not looked upon kindly by the 'tower.
is it officially condemned, i.e.
is it a disfellowshippable offence?.
Gambling was always a major no when I was in....I still have a vague uneasiness about it...
It's kind of a pity that it still makes you a little uneasy. A day at the races is really a great day out (as well as a great movie) Running down the stairs between races to place your $2 bets (and collect, if you were good), grabbing a bbqed corn cob and a baked ham sandwich, running back up the stairs and finding a seat as parallel to the finish line as possible in time for the next race. You'd be surprised how quickly an afternoon flies.

It's good you've been here for over 5 years you must have seen a lot of things happening on the board during that time including flame wars and trolling.
You're right there! Back then we had REAL trolls. And lots of smarties to keep them under control. We've still got a few of the smarties, such as AlanF and Blondie, but the troll talent is getting a bit thin on the ground. And sometimes the best way to survive into the future is to keep your head down - probably while I'm still here, still posting. Posting fluff, mainly, but still posting!
dear friends,.
that i am an artist by profession as well as an art dealer does not necessarily make my observations of any greater weight or value.
however, i am quite aware of what i create and what i sell in our gallery.
I agree that there is something very distinctive about Watchtower art. I just don't think it's sinister.
"Twee" was the very English word my mother used to refer to their pictures. I wonder if SlimfatFace is old enough to know what it means? And if he does, will his acknowledgement of same be lost in a sea of over-generalisation about "apostates" and their flaws?
originally cast as the brawny male lead for the cast of scooby doo, fred never lived up to the billing.
rich with movie star good looks, fred quickly fell in love with himself.. .
"rit rwas apparent that fred rwas not ronly good rooking, but that he ralso rwas.....um.....different", said a former co-star who chooses to remain nameless.. says daphne, "we started to notice subtle differences in fred soon after he ate a can of hormel chili.
Having watched every episode of Scooby Doo, Where Are You? at least 20 times, I've got to observe: For a supposed gay guy, Fred seemed to take every opportunity to have his hand on Daphne's bottom!
i can't believe and low-tech and next-to-useless the watchtower website is.
considering how in the past the jw's used radio and other technology to help spread the jw doctrine "good news", it seems they should have developed a great website to help get new members.. but their site is dreary and hollow.
old information like the "generation of 1914 will see the end of the system" is still posted there.
Why is it, when I hear the terms "Watchtower" and "technology" together, I get visions of a guy stoking a boiler with coal?

Man how time flies! Can't believe this was my first topic. IIRC, our horses did okay, but the pony rides my son was looking forward to were cancelled due to the weather.
Hey, SlimJimFatArse can dredge up old irrelevant posts, why can't I?
i am extremely skeptical about this, yet people on this forum seem to talk about it as though it were a fact.
so has anyone got any actual concrete proof?
here are the reasons why i don't think they do:.
So are well all agreed the Society don't really monitor this site?
Believe what you like, Fat-Between-The-Ears. Unlike in your precious Kingdom Halls, you're pretty well free to embrace any old belief here.

They have their brains in common.
Got that right! He insists on referring to other posters on this site as "apostates" in a derogatory fashion, while he's clearly indicated that he fits that category himself.
Do goldfish survive in lukewarm water?

...with inconspicuous amounts of a household substance?
I thought this was going to be one of his idiotic anti-Apostate posts. You know: change a goldfish's environment and you change the fish. Poison the water, you poison the fish. Apostates and poisonous environments/ toxic reasoning, and so on and so forth...
