More Than You "MAY" Know
by QUANTUM ini thought that maybe some may want to see another side of the argument of god verses secularism / evolution verses creationism.
im not interested in the fact that many have lost their religious fervor and become atheists or invented their own belief system, or still accept the bible but with a different twist.
my intention is to make as strong of an argument as i can for the existence of a particular god, who i believe we all once knew and may be privileged to know again.

Ahh, D8TA, good points but you obviously forgot that in the book of "Its on TV so it must be true ch 12:1-3" it clearly states
1 Woe to those Leprachauns and those proclaiming leprachauns, for in the middle days, not the last days you will suffer the fate of those in the days of the beginning. Your Count Chocula will turn you milk [and false religion] sour and brown and the criminal will walk away with the cookie crisp. 2 Sugar Bear will go CooKoo for Coco Puffs [and babalyon the great will fall] and the God[s] of the earth will rejoice at the coming of the Golden age of Cap'n Crunch [and not the imitation Cap'n Crunch known as Mr. T Cereal]. 3 Beware of mocking the screen names of others, for [Jehovah] is angry and his hand is still outstreatched [from back in 607 BCE when his hand was first outstreatched] and [he] will prove to keep his cereal crispy, sending the soggies to the everlasting [cutting off]. *

NEARLY 17 YEAR OLD BOY IS MINISTERIAL SERVANT
by minimus inthings must be getting pretty desperate.
i just heard some wonderful news of another boy being appointed a ministerial servant.
the comment was that even though he is young, he is very mature.another person, speaking of a different boy being appointed said that he had the added advantage of being home schooled and that really helped him to mature.

All a MS is a gopher in the KH. They are just guys who do the stuff Elders are too busy to do, take attendance, keep track of lit, run mics and sound, mow lawns and stuff like that. A 17 year old can do it, because he has a lot of time on his hands. People think they are at a position of authority just because they have a title, like MS and it makes me laugh. Thats why I'm glad I never was a MS.
Here is another laughable experience:
A child (12) i know just recently got baptized. He knows a sister who used to baby sit for him, who is 21 now and married. The brother tried to counsel her about some silly thing that "has been said" "that just didn't look right". She just laughed and patted him on the head. The brother got a little angry and said "I am a brother now, you should listen to me" Everyone laughed at him because he was outa his mind. The scary thing is he didn't come up with this idea by himself, he just assumed from his enviornment that he has headship over any female, because he is a baptized brother. I heard his mom can't conduct their home study anymore because he is now the spiritual head of the family, even though his mom has been pioneering for 15+ years! (Dad is an "unbeliever") Any info on that?
Oh yeah, she better stock up on napkins, she'll need one everytime she prays at home now ;)

If you could be/could have been...
by Kingpawn in.
the person can be living or dead, the same sex gender as you or the opposite, real or a character from a movie, play, book, etc.
i think i'd go with sherlock holmes (attention to detail and analytical ability) or captain nemo (freedom to explore).. incidentally sherlock holmes is based on a real person.

has anyone had the privilage of taking a CO out to lunch or even having him go to one of you bible studies? This was a load of crap. Ppl had to sign up to take him out to lunch, some would actually get upset that his week was already booked up so they had to wait another 6 months for him to come by to be able to buy him some food. For some reason, I never liked COs. I always like the fact that JWs say that their elders are not supposed to be held in high regard, but that all gets blown out of the water with COs, DO, and ppl from bethel. I guess its just human nature to put people above us if they have more power and authority, err I mean privilages (SP??)

Ralph: I bent my wookie
The episode where Bart is accused of stealing from the collection plate at church and he is hiding out in the treehouse. He makes a statement that everyone is out to get him or something like that and just then an old guy pokes his head up in the window and says "Thief" Cracks me up all the time.

I lost my father a while ago, back in 93 but it is still painful. My wife lost her mother a couple of years ago and it brought back lots of painful memories. Its hard to deal with. I know everyone tells you it gets better over time and I got angry when they would tell me that. I didn't want it to get better! I just wanted my dad back. Why should I feel better about losing someone so close to me? But the world does go on, and eventually you will find your place in it. It helps to think about him a lot, also to find someone in your life to fill the gap. Not a replacement or anything, because nobody can replace what you lost. Just someone to be there for you when that person was there for you. I had a problem with this in sports in HS. My dad always encouraged me and went to all the games (coached sometimes) i was in. After he died, I stopped playing because nobody would go and see me. I would have loved for someone to be there for me for things like that.
Well, enough of my sad story. We are all here for you if you need to chat and stuff.

Speaking of notes at conventions, assemblies and meetings...
Does anyone else have/had notebooks that were full of incriminating notes that if anyone found you would wish you were dead?
My wife and I have a couple of books where we rip into everyone in the Cong, Its funny to read, perhaps i'll post some up if there is any interest.
