  Rectum circles who park in handicap parking

  by buffalosrfree in

  i just went to the store a few hours ago, some store but does have 4 places for handicap people to park in, well of course when i get there four assholes young people were parked in all four places, and when i had to walk by the them gave them a good piece of my mind.

  and they of course got mad (4 guys waiting on their bitches i guess) and told me to "f" myself, when another older man hollered at them they of course told him the same thing, and then a store employee was out there gathering carts and he told them to leave the handicap parking they told him the same thing.

  well upon exiting the store there was a local policeman who had driven up (that upholds my belief in god) and was giving all four of the assholes a ticket for parkintg in handicap parking, i made sure i told him about how they acted and what they told me.

  Ever tried going through a parking lot with 3 kids? Who refuse to stay with you and you don't have enough hands to keep them out of the traffic?

  The first time they get run over, they will stop running out in front of cars.

  Seriously, this could happen no matter where you park in the parking lot. And who has three kids that young? Either teach your kids how to behave out in public or leave them home.

  Ever driven through a parking lot where little kids appear out of nowhere right in front of your car?

  No, but I know enough to slow down when I see people up ahead.

  Having parking for moms with these little kids is simply a safety issue. I'd rather roll in my wheelchair than drive over a kid

  Again, they could get hit anywhere. Its not a safety issue, its pandering to parents. Gotta keep those consumers and their consumer kids happy.

  Heck, when I was a kid, we got left in the car while mom and dad went in to get the groceries. Course that was the good old days. We didnt have seat belts, never heard of car seats for kids. Its a wonder we survived.

  How do you defend your god's inaction?

  by AlmostAtheist in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this is a question for those that believe in a god or gods, particularly those described as "all knowing" or "almighty".. how do you defend to yourself that your god has not in any modern situation saved his people from anything?.

  people of all faiths are regularly killed by various natural elements.

  of course, if you knew such a thing was going to befall a person and you could do something to protect them, you would.

  Ok I have read 4 pages and I most interested in LT's answer to this question, since I have been trying to figure out his 'take' on religion for quite a while now..

  Dude, why do you keep ducking and dodging what is a very simple question. Let's narrow it down: an earthquake just killed over 20,000 people in Pakistan this week. Do you believe that a deity exists that has the power to prevent a tragedy like this? If so, why didn't he?????

  If the answer is "well he could, but he does what he wants and we are far too puny to begin to understand his ways," then my next question is, what the hell good is a god like this???? If he has the ability to save human lives from needless death, and yet he chooses/is unable to/is too busy/just doesnt give a rip/ not to do so, then what does believing in him accomplish?

  I think the whole thing is getting out of line. Parking spots for mothers with young children, parking for Seniors!!!!

  Ok, handicapped/disabled/physically challenged/PC buzzword of the week/ I can see. Seniors... ok but then again, they are retired, they got no where they have to be, they can walk. Mommys? No way. What possible reason should there be for them to get the choice spot? LET THEM WALK. It will give them time to reconsider their (often ill-thought) decision to reproduce.

  Why is it everybody thinks they're 'special' nowadays?? It ain't gonna kill anyone to walk a few extra feet to the store entrance. How do you think people got around before cars?

  Did Noahs Ark drift about aimlessly in the Great Flood?

  by EliJah in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  no where does it mention that noah traveled around the world in his big boat.

  in fact, is says that the ark was floating "high above the earth".

  also, what does matthew mean about "just like in the days of noah?

  Trying to explain how Noah's Ark and the Flood happened is like trying to figure out how Santa can get to every kids house in one night.

  How many of us were aware that the bylaws require that each cong. hold" General Annual Meetings" for the election of officers, their names and titles and the annual statement is signed by a duly authorized officer thereof.

  Here is the enigma :Are persons who are "appointed", by an outside corporation into positions of administration within the Cong. and call themselves ELDERS ,committing a crime by posing themselves off to the Pennsylvania Department of State,as being duly authorized officers of the JW Cong? Being that the Cong,have not voted them in as Cong. President, Secretary and Treasurer,for which latter officers, Pennsylvania Law requires a Congregational VOTE?

  A further Enigma :Is the Watch Tower Society committing a crime by instructing its "appointees", its Elders ,to assume to themselves the titles such as President,Secretary and Treasurer of the incorporated JW Cong.,when those such Elders have not been lawfully voted in by the incorporated Cong.Membership? But by Elder vote only?

  In closeing, on a lighter note can you recall being notified by the Secretary to attend the G.A.M.for the election of officers in accordance with the law ?

  Uhm, every congregation I have been in has conducted their "Annual Corporation Meeting". Its held once a year, announced ahead of time, usually held immediately following the School and Service meeting. At each meeting, from one to three corporate officers are elected. All active members of the congregation that are present vote, not just elders. They usually are elders or ministerial servants, and of course the vote is unanimous.

  I have to wonder if some of you ever really paid attention to what went on at the Kingdom Hall, this is a total non-issue.

  Stargate SG-1 The Ori

  by blondie in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  has anybody been watching this season's shows with the new menace, the ori?.

  daniel and vala have been saved from the fanatical ori followers, but because their savior is an ori priest and they're still trapped in "borrowed" bodies in a distant galaxy they're not exactly home-free.

  instead, the priest transports them to the ori's holy realm of celestis, where daniel begins to uncover the secrets of the mysterious gods.. .

  There is no need to DF you, you have DA'd yourself with that letter.

  Horefully though, it will cause any readers to stop and think about where their children are and who they are with.

  Most of my favorites have already been mentioned...Asimov...the Dune series, Clarke has some excellent works(Childhood's End, 2001), some not so great(Rama, 3001). I also enjoyed Julian May's Pliocene/Galactic Milieu series.

  No one has mentioned David Brin, the Uplift series is awesome. Larry Niven, Jerry Pournelle... Another newer writer is Peter Hamilton, look for his Reality Dysfunction/Neutronium Alchemist/Naked God series(not sure what the correct name for the whole series is). I also recently started reading Stephen Baxter, a great hard SF writer in the Clarke tradition.

  Movies: Wrath of Khan never gets old, original SW trilogy. anyone remember Silent Running?

  Television series Star Trek(of course) TOS, TNG, DS9. I watched Voyager and Enterprise more out of Pavlovian response to the Trek name than anything else. Babylon 5 was entertaining, sometimes incredible, sometimes dreadful. Stargate SG-1 is entertaining in a guilty pleasure kind of way, starting to get a little past its sell date, although Ben Browder is at least some fresh blood. The new Battlestar Galactica is one of the best SF shows ever: no time travel, no transporters, no holodecks, no technobabble. 3-dimensional characters. I expect it to be cancelled at any moment.
