  an elderly sister passed away recently.

  family came to her memorial service from all over the country.

  some of them, including grown-up, disfellowshipped children of hers, also came.

  in my area, a lot of the young jws, especially girls are getting breast implants, nose jobs, chin implants.

  asian jws girls get eyelid surgery, and one girl even got her legs lengthen 5 inches making her about five feet nine inches tall the male jws are getting hair transplants and nose jobs.

  and nobody in the congregation says a word, including elders.

  Seriously though, what SHOULD one say to a sister who suddenly appears with big boobs?

  Isn't the correct answer...Nothing?

  In your opinion: What would a teacher of the English language say about the way Anthony Morris III speaks?

  by LogCon in

  2. bible

  considering the language, wording and grammar of anthony morris iii, if a teacher on the english language, at a prestigious university were to analyze anthony's public speaking, what comments and conclusions would they come to?

  i say public speaking, because i would assume that an individual would be more careful with their words when spoken in public, than in private.

  serious comments would be appreciated, however, i realize that outlaw and a few others are probably on a page of their own.. .

  I think my biggest problem with Morris is his arrogance. He is just a holier-than-though, self-righteous, pompous ass.

  i have exchanged posts with a number of you in the short time that i've been a member of this most excellent forum.. as i initially posted, i have aspergers syndrome.

  in my case it is both severe and mild.

  it is mild in that unless you talked to me for some time you would only think me a little odd.

  Interesting that you feel this in your head. I think I feel feelings in my chest mostly, come to think about it.

  What are you gonna do when the existence of god is disproved?

  by Doltologist in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  in 1897, j.j. thomson discovered the electron.

  this was the first constituent part of the atom which, for 2,000 years, was thought to be indivisible.

  today, we know of 18 elemental particles following the recent discovery of the higgs boson, the so-called god particle.. back in 1897, most people believed in god because there weren't even any theories as to how the universe came into being.

  Wozza, do you really only behave because you're afraid of God being angry and punishing you?

  Or do you behave and do the right thing because it's the right thing to do?

  Doltologist, you still can't speak of disbelief in God in polite circles in most of the US.

  You can't talk about politics either because that's boiled down to a religious belief in your political persuasion which is often, like cults, not to be disturbed with pesky facts.
