i have no clue whether this is intended for "other programs" aired by "other bbc affiliates", but it would seem to be worth 5 minutes for everyone to take the time to fill out a request that "suffer the little chidren" be aired on bbcamerica.

Thanks!! I would be really happy if I got to see this in the States.

Whati means to be JW

i couldn't resist - some people are so pompous!

!- just had to post this message that i read on another board.....um....complete with my additions shown in red.

* to serve and worship our creator, the only true god, jehovah, is the ultimate honour, more valuable and precious than all the money and possessions, status, etc in the world.

You said it perfectly Redhorse Woman! That sounds just like my old congregation. When I was a regular pioneer all the sisters just complained about how sick they were and fell asleep in the car. People hated working with me because I would make everyone walk (plus - you called on a lot less houses that way, when you parked the car and walked for miles!)

the simpsons is one of the few shows i can watch over and over never get bored with.

I like the episode where Homer got the blue crayon taken out of his head so he becomes smart. The best part is where he has proven via physics that there is no God and shows the sheet of paper to Ned Flanders. Ned looks it over, says Homer's right and then burns the paper saying "we can't let this little secret get out".

Michael Jackson (Full of $%@#)

by out4good3 in

vent on.

i can't possibly be the only one feeling this way.. here's a self-professed maybe ex jw pedophile whose made upwards to a billion dollars selling records now using the race card.

michael jackson...using the race card.. could it be sour grapes because the album he spent 50 million producing was a complete and utter flop?

zenpunk

MJ isn't even black anymore - have you seen photos of him lately (is it really true he has some sort of disease - or is it just plastic surgery addiction)? Anyway, when the fame is over, people should just retire with their millions and shut up.

Wow! I guess you can tell I don't know a word of Italian! I still think some of them are far-fetched, but others, especially that goat's head from - I think it's the old family book - that's pretty scary!

I think the pic is a little far-fetched (or I'm just not seeing something). I like this walking monk though!

jw marriages age differences

of 3 that straightaway spring to mind:.

dg (m) 64 e (f) 27. bm (m) 49 d (f) 18. pl (m) 43 e (f) 18.

2 of the above were also 'arranged' marriages, do you know of any other instances of extremes in jw marriage age ranges?

zenpunk

I know of quite a few instances where barely-18 year-old girls were married to JWs in their 40s. When I was 19 I guess my parents were getting desparate because they set me up with this guy in his late thirties who lived at the Patterson, NY complex. He was even divorced already. Anyway, my parents took me to meet him for pizza at the nearby pizza parlour. Deep down, I was really pissed-off about it. I took one look at this guy and thought to myself, "YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING"! I told my parents I never wanted to meet that creepy guy again! (Needless to say he was incredibly interested in this young piece of flesh). Years later, my parents had the nerve to tell me that they had run into him at an assembly and that he had gotten married - like I missed my chance or something!

Also - why does the guy have to be older. When I get to be 40 - I want to get myself a hot 20-year old! Yeah! !
