PART TWOTHE STORY CONTINUES***

by zev in

part two.... the swinging singles....(not).

and as such, i was never in my home congregation, in pawtucket ri.

i was a floater.

If it was so wrong, how could I be appointed to such a position. Nevertheless I accepted and was appointed.

I didn't know Jehovah used a magical ORACLE to figure those things out. He no longer uses the URim and the thumin, or what ever the hell it was. Reminded me of the white/black tokens in the game othello.

Zev, although I have my deep problems with the borg; however, I have not abandoned the bible.

Did God/Jehovah know what was going on in the garden of Eden? or when Satan was entertaining the angels to turn aside? What about King Saul? Jehovah knew from the start that the Messiah wasn't going to come from Saul's house.

Don't get me wrong. I also have this argument about Jehovah appointing elders, etc.

The thing is, God allows things to happen. Also, to be blunt, you are the one that lied.

At least you made it to M.S. I never got there. I always opened my mouth too soon. Sometimes, even in congregation meeting comments.

Also, to this day, my brother is the ONLY person I know that ever raised his hand in defiance of a vote, and didn't go along with the masses. He was jeered for being truthful.

It has been good knowing you for about the last, what? 20-25 years though.

Does your Dad & Mom know about your steps to DA yet?

Pet Names

by LaraCraft in

what is with you men and your pet names for female body parts??

you know what i'm talking about--pussy, beaver, oppossum...

thewiz

oops, this is about women isn't it?

A woman and a man are makin' love
She asks him to stick a finger in
Then two fingers, then three...
Then his whole hand, then another hand
She then asks him: "Now clap"
He says, "I can't"
She says: "Too tight huh?"

Women make up names too... It's not just the "guys" who have dirty minds.

Do JW's Actually Believe This Stuff?!?

by Mister Biggs in

this was just forwarded to me.. (we need more comets to help take all of the stupid people away from among us!).

this comes from the branch in canada....... in england one of our blind brothers had a seeing-eye dog that would.

faithfully guide and take him to the meetings each week.

sounds like an urban legend (you know, the stories the friend-of-a-friend, told your cousins Aunts sister on your fathers cousins side, and they swear it's true).

I've noticed many urban legends retro fitted to fit the JDub-speak, or mentality

Think about it, for what reason would God or Jesus have to lie? I feel it will come true, but when?

Right now I guess you might say, I'm on the wrong side of the fence.

Abaddon - I didn't know I had to conform to the dictates of a highly intelligent person like yourself.

If I want to use language the way I want to use it, to get my point across, then I can do it. I could write stuff up that uses big words like you like to do, but why should I?

I find it more pleasent to show you guys up with humor, that's humour to you, and/or sarcasm. God forbid if I misspel a word too. My credibility goes out the window then.

Ever read Jonathan Swift's books -He got under people's skin too, by using humor, sarcasm, and most of all satire.

People's richness is their diversity but you want me to conform, use language that doesn't insult your intelligence, much the same way the borg wants people to conform

Ah, resort to labeling with "ignorant" and "stupid" etc. That's how an evolutionist wins their argument. Name calling.

If you don't believe something that has been "established" as "fact" you must be stupid.

Island Women hold your ground don't let these idiots pressure into believing in something that is obviously filled with bullshit.

Bullshit -the eye, simple coming into being from skin cells -those kinds of theories started because all the "missing-links" (slow adaptations that would takes 1000's or millions of years to happen, to have a given outcome, simply can't be found) so evolotionary needs change.

"Uh, yeah, we're going to change that. First there is no eye and then next day, pow, we got an eye. Just like that. No steps in between."

i asked about something like this about 5 years ago, but could never get a straight answer.

seems you had to be part of a club.

whenever i did ask, the person(s) would kind of clam up.. funny, use our money to buy the cars and then they turn around and sell them.

It was so many years ago. I think I got hurt in Rutland, VT, USA and previous to that I got some severe food poisoning in Colebrook, VT, USA. I pulled a night watch, when to sleep got up around 10 am or so and had some eggs that I was told were fresh.

I virtually had blood coming out my ass. My brother and close friend at the time had to physically carry me to the car and rush me to the emergency room. They didn't pay for that hospital visit either.

I disagree with another poster. I think the KH in a quick build are extremely well built. I don't ever remember anyone cutting corners. They might be JDubs, but the people in charge, in all my experience, have been very suited for the job. I've been to about 22 of 'em.

Anyone here go to the quick-build in Alaska back around @1985? That was great.
