  when they ask, "can i talk to you about god?

  " reply, "sure, what would you like to know?

  answer the door with a bloody knife and say, "i'm sorry, could you come back in a half hour?

  2. friends

  when i read the thread about trumans experience with the brothers making a call i thought: .

  why not feign amnesia?

  you answer the door and say you are not brother/sister so & so.

  Tell the schmelders you have multiple personality disorder, and that the 'hovah personality finally faded away, you have one less personality! Yay! The meds are working! Currently, the loner/terrorist/hates visitors personality is functioning.

  i am just going to have to start keeping my front door closed.

  today, i had it open, and there was no way to pretend i wasn't home when the two 'brothers' rang my door bell.

  actually, they had been by last saturday, too, but the door was closed that day, and i didn't answer it.

  But, the "old light" was true, right?

  My, how the "truth" changes.

  With all the changing of light, how the hell can even the most hardened or the most dumb of 'hovahs believe this crap?

  are you happier since you've found this place?

  if jwd were gone tomorrow, would you just look for another site to get involved with?

  my opinion of this board is that it is one of the best boards to learn current information from.

  There was a time when this site was theraputic for me. I could rant and rave and say the F word. I could enjoy reading arguements between Alan F and YouBlow, Farkel and the Gomer du jour. I could enjoy posts by JanH, Amazing, Maximus, Kent, and Norm. That time has past. Goodbye cold, cruel world. TR

  Should "Apostates" Shudder?

  by Oroborus21 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was reviewing the study articles in the may 15, 2003 watchtower.. the first article: "christ speaks to the congregations" is rather hard hitting against (so-called) apostasy and sectarianism.

  the conclusion of paragraph 6 says:.

  "to maintain the purity of jehovah's worship and to protect the congregation, therefore, they (true christians) do not extend the hand of fellowship to unrepentant apostates.".

  Sometimes I shudder when I see roadkill, or when I urinate. So, I guess we should shudder. TR

  The Essential Rumi

  by nilfun in

  2. friends

  a few months ago i purchased a collection of books called mystical classics of the world.

  i am now reading the fourth in the series, the essential rumi (there are six books altogether: tao te ching, the bhagavad-gita, bardo thodol or the tibetian book of the dead, the essential rumi, the essential kabbalah, and the way of a pilgrim).

  a man in prison is sent a prayer rug by his friend.

  A man in prison is sent a prayer rug by his friend. What
  he had wanted, of course, was a file or a crowbar or a key!
  But he began using the rug, doing five-times prayer before
  dawn, at noon, mid-afternoon, after sunset, and before sleep.
  Bowing, sitting up, bowing again, he notices an odd pattern
  in the weave of the rug, just at the qibla , the point, where
  his head touches. He studies and meditates on the pattern,
  gradually discovering that it is a diagram of the lock that
  confines him in his cell and how it works. He's able to
  escape. Anything you do every day can open into the deepest
  spiritual place, which is freedom.

  Hey! I'm a locksmith, and I'm gonna tell ya right now that it cain't happen!

  The Dixie Chicks

  by Stan Conroy in

  2. scandals

  i don't understand the logic of boycotting the dixie chicks because of the comments the singer made about being ashamed that bush is from texas.

  it doesn't make sense to me.

  keep in mind that i'm just a canadian, so maybe i'm just not tuned in to the american way of thinking.

  Simon,

  What if you liked the dixie Chicks and then they said, "We're practicing pedophiles." Would you still support them? Listen to their music?

  2. experiences

  what's a kingdom song you can remember singing that gives you the creeps now?

  mine is "move ahead" i think that was the title, anyway it has so much rhetoric... but the tune is so darn catchy.... darn.... in my opinion, those songs are the perfect example of mind control.

  move ahead.. move ahead ... blah blah blah blah blah .

  1. From house to house, from door to door,
  hovah’s disease we spread.
  From town to town, from farm to farm,
  hovah’s sheep are bled.
  This good news that God’s Kingdom drools,
  As the GB geezers foretold,
  Is being preached throughout the earth
  By 'hovahs young and old.
  
  2. From house to house, from door to door,
  you look like a freakin ho.
  It comes to those who choose to call
  Upon hovah’s name you blow.
  But how can they call on the name
  Of One they do not know?
  So to their houses and their doors
  The sacred name is "Mo".
  
  3. Of course, it’s not at ev’ry door
  We find a hearing ear;
  At times there is a scolding tongue
  And those we hate are queers.
  ’Twas just the same in Jesus’ day;
  Not all would hear his word.
  He said his sheep would hear his voice;
  Hence, we smell like turds.
  
  4. Then let us go from door to door
  To spread the Kingdom news.
  And to be sheep or to be goats,
  We’ll let the people get screwed.
  At least we’ll name hovah’s name,
  His glorious truth beware.
  And as we go from door to door,
  We’ll find his sheep are square.

  Hi Ken.

  I've got to get to the east coast someday. The incredible early history of our country.

  Glad you enjoyed your visit.
