Sorry Waiting
I dont usually blurt out nasty name calling like that, but he/she drove me to it. It must be an aussie thing...it translates as MORON. All I can say to who ever they might be is "get a life, dont you have some door knocking to do or something?!"

All I can say to you Sysadmin is that you are a FUCK KNUCKLE!!!
(Please excuse the language everyone, but it had to be said)
And heres a little song you might like.....No More!
The crap roll out of your mouth again
Haven't changed, your brain is still gelatin
Little whispers circle around your head
Why dont you worry about yourself instead
Who are you? Where ya been? Where ya from?
Gossip is burning on the tip of your tongue
You lie so much you believe yourself
Judge not lest ye be judged yourself
Holier than thou
You are
Holier than thou
You are
You know not
Before you judge me take a look at you
Cant you find something better to do
Point the finger, slow to understand
Arrogance and ignorance go hand in hand
Its not who you are, its who you know
Others lives are the basis of your own
Burn your bridges build them back with wealth
Judge not lest ye be judges yourself
Holier than thou
You are
Holier than thou
You are
You know not

100 foreskins for your daughter
by Zep inthought dating and marriage was tough in the year 2000...well just check out what david had to go through.. david wants to marry michal, sauls daughter.so whats he have to do?.
samuel 18:25-28. at that saul said: "this is what you men will say to david, "the king has delight, not in marriage money, but in a hundred foreskins of the philistines".
so david rose and struck down among the philistines two hundred men, and came bringing their foreskins and giving them in full number to the king to form a marriage alliance with the king.. lol

Which makes me wonder what Saul did with 100 foreskins.
This guy was seriously kinky.
I also remember a bible reading a long time ago and a young brother was asked to read 1 Tim 5:1
but he got a little mixed up and read out "Do not severly circumcise an older man......" we would hope not!!!! -

Phew!! what a lot of reading and now my head is spinning, but its kind of freaky because Ive had this very train of thought going round my head for the last couple of days. Ive come to the conclusion that the bible could pass as another book by Tolkien, what with all the strange creatures, good conquoring evil and having tests to pass etc etc etc.
It all seems like a really sick joke to prove a point. If God is all seeing, all knowing then he knows the final outcome. Why not put us all out of our misery and get it over with. I just get sick to the stomach when i think of all the suffering that has occured in the past hundreds of years (granted it was all mankind against mankind) but when you think of all the people who've been murdered, tortured, starved to death, mutilated....you get the picture, when is the ref going to step on to the ball field and blow his whistle and hold up a yellow card?
It just seems like a bit too much overkill at the sake of proving a point, especially when he knows the outcome.
Even as a kid the story of Job never sat right with me. I mean the guy lost ( i forget) quite a few kids and what he was supposed to be overjoyed at getting them replaced with new kids. Im sorry but as a mother i can honestly say that if you lost a child, a million children would never make up for the one you lost. That story seemed to treat life as a commodity, easily expended to prove a point.
Ok Ive had my whinge for the day.
You can all get back to your D & M. Some thought provoking stuff though guys.
Where do you get all those quotes from Waiting? -

Just between you and me, I always had a soft spot for Grizzly Adams.
But seriously I know 2 guys that were born with a cleft lip and theyve both grown moustaches to cover the scar...does that mean they have to shave it off if they want to get anywhere in the truth?
Shaving is a manmade idea. Guys cant help it if they have facial hair. Im sure Adam didnt just stumble across a razor one day out strolling in the garden and take it home to Eve and say " I think Im gunna shave all the hair off my face from now on, what do you reckon?"
Maybe the society has a lot of shares in Gillette?
How come sisters arent required to grow their hair long? I seem to remember a scripture about how good it was for them to have long hair. Am I right? -

Rhw, perhaps you were thinking Anne Rice rules!!
Lots of talented and gifted people have the problem of thinking quicker than they can communicate the thoughts...I just made that up, but it sounds like a good theory!
Patricia Cornwell is good, for the medically inclined. Steven King is a big favourite, but as far as anti JW stuff, Ive left it alone.
Its probably my JW upbringing 'you mustnt read apostate stuff..blah blah blah', but ive got a head on my shoulders and I really dont slag off about the society to others ( I have my point of view and grievances), but I dont really want to read someone elses slagging off about them either.
Up until now this site is the only time Ive spoken about being a JW and its affects on my life. -

Gifts- bribery or an act of love
by Kismet inoften i hear about guys who are in the proverbial doghouse with their girlfriend and/or spouse (though both at the same time is very messy and not recommended- lol).
9 of 10 times the discussion then revolves around how to get out of the doghouse.
flowers, candies, sparkling trinkets, trips etc are thrown out as the "accepted" way to gain forgiveness.

After reading all of the above I feel I must have the weirdest relationship of all. If either of us has a problem, we simply say 'Hey ....that really pisses me off when.....'and we talk about it and LISTEN to each others point of view, without sulking or going of in a huff. In the 12 years we have know each other I can HONESTLY say we have never raised our voices at each other...maybe at the kids ( joke), but we state our case and get everything out in the open. Neither of us has ever bought a gift for the other to suck up after a disagreement. Gifts after a fight sounds and looks like a big suck job to me, and anyone who lets themselves be bought off with a bunch of flowers deserves everything they get.
Harsh but true Im afraid. -

Zep!, Im suprised you forgot to mention the blonde girly that turns the letters on Wheel of Fortune. If there ever was an example of intelligent life it was staring us in the face all along. What is her name anyway?

Personally I dont have any great prob's with my family...I havent been to a meeting in around 6 years and dont exactly lead a JW lifestyle, so I guess Ive just disassociated myself. My family have the attitude that their hoping Ill come back to it all and treat me like normal, although the odd WT & A are left open at apropriate pages on the coffee table for my benefit. My husband on the other hand is 'D'ed and has been for about 10 years. His family have no contact and believe me there have been a lot of times when he's needed the emotional support that goes with a family and it hasnt been an option for him. It annoys me no end to see his family go out of their way for others in the congregation, yet there is nothing in the way of emotional support for him. Underneath it all he's still the person that they raised as a child, he just doesnt live his life the way they see correct and for this the punishment is isolation, disdain and rejection.
It just doesnt seem loving. I understand that they feel they have to protect the 'flock'....but why the family has to take part in all this too is beyond me. Its cruel and its not any wonder he's never made a move to go back to the truth. the fact that I cant get my head around it is the reason I stopped going also.
