scholar,.
back on october 7, you said:i will respond to your response to the historical blunder made by franz and jonsson as alleged by me in a couple of days.. .
(the post was http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/12/59355/901501/post.ashx#901501 the thread was wts chronology(oslo hypothesis) from vicar;trinity college fellow,cambridge.).
Scholar,
I know academic BS when I see it. I wrote a ton of it when I was in school. And you keep bringing it up! Why do you punish yourself? Why not surrender, or just DROP IT! You've LOST! Admit it!
Latin phrases and a pretentious signature do not a scholar make.
Send me a check for fifteen thousand dollars and I'll send you an honorary degree in religious studies...

My ex JW friend Leonie, from Australia says that Aussies think President Bush is retarded. The thing is: a lot Americans think the same thing. We don't blame you at all. Besides, it's hard to take a man whose father bought him a major league baseball team, The Texas Rangers seriously. And how is it he won this election anyway? Makes some of wonder if his father bought him the presidency, too. Probably not, but the doubt is there and it makes it hard to take the guy seriously.
Let's not go there in this thread, okay?

thread topics like "how to mess up the society"...."what dirty tricks would you pull on the watchtower" and "the society is about to go down the tubes!
" don't impress me.
honesty and forthrightness.
Humor is good, a tool to help us realize that what the WT denounces as blasphemy is actually good for human liberation. The sarcasm is the actual act of human beings getting up off their knees and mocking those who still pray to the bricks in Brooklyn.
As for being an effective tool - that's not the purpose, as I see it, of this site. There are much more serious sites for people to learn the truth about the troof. Here, they can learn to speak freely and see what others have to say about their circumstances. This is a kind of "second stage" site where the escaping dubs can begin to form new relationships as they prepare to leave the borg.

Hope the dissent spreads.
As much as I really really hate the stand the peace protestors in my own country are taking - I'm glad they are there and are sticking it to the man, letting Bush know that he can't do EVERYTHING and that he isn't the Roman Emperor.

i've heard stories of people finding a way to get their publisher card back... is it possible?
if so, how can i get mine back?
i want to know what those pricks have written in there.
We should break in to Bethel and steal our JC files. Does anybody know where in Brooklyn they keep those files?

ahh ... roundabouts They are probably as bad for North American visitors as your four-way stops are for us
You have no idea. When my family lived in Sheffield and my father tried to figure out roundabouts with all five of us in a Pugeot, I routinely saw the face of death - kind of like Iron Maiden's Eddie, waving a Union Jack and bearing down on me with 89,000 pounds of mad cows in the back...
'twas insanity. But I am very pleased that you had a good time and got a good impression of my country.

sorry if this is a sad question, but i know of 3 jw's that have suicided.
i haven't known any personally, but i was wondered if you know any or know of any jw's that have suiced?
and do you know the reason why?
told me now since she is assuming there will be committee meetings and a disfellowship, not to go and play my suicidal mind games on all of them and if I am going to do it, do it right, get a gun and blow my head off or slit my wrists, but make sure I really do that job and be done with it and not hassle them.
Um, sns? I just want to say the complete OPPOSITE of what that #### said to you. Under no circumstances is suicide an option for you, understand? Okay, then.
The best revenge on betrayers is to live a happy life and make sure they find out about it.

I get angry when I hear of people abusing the weak. My heroic ideal is the mythical King Arthur, where might defends right, works to help the weak and the sick. when something crosses that, I get furious, ready to kill.
The emotion that most people call anger is only the initial stage of my calculated fury. Then I relax, let the adrenalin stop flowing, and then I ASSESS the SITUATION and work out how to best accomplish my goal. Sometimes I let it go, because the joy of vengeance might only cheapen my eventual victory. But sometimes I plot how BEST to acheive the most NEGATIVE state for my enemy that I can conceive of. Ergo, when I think of my former sketch comedy troupe and how they betrayed me and slandered my wife and called me all kinds of horrible things... the best way to acheive vengeance is to build ANOTHER sketch comedy team and then become the professionals that I want to be and then rub it in their face about how they dropped out just when we could have been famous. Like the Beatles first drummer, eh?

broadband has just been made available in my area and i want to sign up for it(dial-up is driving me mad....), but i don't know which broadband isp is the best one to use.
i can get a good deal with aol, but i've been warned against using them.
i would have used freeserve, but i've got a dial up connection with them now and its real real bad.
I have a notebook that I drag down to the local cafe and plug in to their wireless network. High speed, no commitments, and fairly painless to use.

Yes, that is absolutely a genuine kingdom song.
I cant' believe the pomposity of the lyrics - that God's Kingdom rules!!! Ha ha ha! I can't believe they still believe that!
