i think that the terrorists would have done better to fly those planes into wt branch offices.
there would be no need for the usa to go to war in iraq or afghanistan and they would have been hailed as heroes fo helping knock down an evil tower that casts a giant shadow of oppression, shame and fear.
maybe if any of the "goobering buddy" (ha i love that term) had survived the attacks they might have gone and molested osama and his little fruity indonesian pantyboys!
Tired:
Many here have banded together and accomplished much. You will never get 100% support in anything.
Extremist posts, despite your intentions, usually push away support rather than engender it.
Or perhaps people just don't agree with your ideas. That doesn't make them WT supporters.
this one is interesting .... http://www.thestar.com/news/ontario/article/423330.
a passsenger train carrying 234 people is stopped in northern ontario and quarantined after one person became ill and died.
ten others are hospitalized with flu-like symptoms.. hazmat and cbrne teams are on site.
Warlock:
I thought the same thing but if it was a conspiracy, they would have just said it was food poisoning and were just verifying that no-one else was ill.
But to seal off two cars and refuse to let anyone off is indicative it is something bigger. I still lean towards minute chemical or biological release.

FOLEYET, Ont. - Health authorities remain puzzled by an unfolding medical emergency aboard a Via Rail train that has left one woman dead and others seriously ill.
Up to 10 of the 264 passengers were showing flu-like symptoms and have been taken by ambulance to hospital in Timmins, Ont. None of the other passengers are being allowed off the train.
"We are still trying to determine the nature of the medical situation," Health Canada spokesman Alistair Sinclair said.
Via Rail spokeswoman Catherine Kaloutsky said the Vancouver-to-Toronto passenger train, now under quarantine in this northern Ontario town, was "stopped for medical reasons."
"VIA is in contact with all the appropriate authorities. We are taking all precautions to ensure the safety and comfort of passengers and crew on board."
Police, fire and ambulance officials are on the scene in full protective gear and two of the train cars have been sealed off pending assessments by public health experts.
Laurel Ostfield, a spokeswoman for the Ontario Ministry of Health, said two air ambulances have been deployed to the site, about 40 kilometres west of the town of Foleyet and about 350 kilometres north of Sudbury.
"They can provide help on site," Ostfield said in an interview from Toronto. "The are critical care paramedics so they have high training."
Ostfield added that emergency and public health units from other northern Ontario cities are also on hand, but stressed that authorities are still trying "to work out the details" before releasing any information to the public.
Transportation Safety Board spokeswoman Julie Leroux said the agency, which investigates a range of incidents in rail and other transportation modes, is "monitoring the situation," but that they have not yet been asked to investigate.
CN Rail reported the incident to police at 8:30 a.m., saying an as-yet unnamed female passenger had respiratory problems and that she showed no vital signs. Police say they believe the woman got on the train with a tour group from Jasper, Alta.
Dave Ethier, at the Northern Lights Restaurant in Foleyet, says the train is stopped at the end of the main street and the area around the train has been cordoned off.
"There's OPP (Ontario Provincial Police) and ambulances there," he reported. "They're not letting anybody in or out. The personnel that are involved are the only ones they're letting around there. They're not letting the public close to it."
Jane Armstrong has been watching the scene from her job at the Foleyet General Store on Main Street.
"I'm just up the street from it," she said, adding the road has been cordoned off.
"They've got some ribbons up and they're stopping the people from going near the train."
The train, No. 42, also known as the Canadian, left Vancouver on Tuesday and was scheduled to arrive in Toronto at 8 p.m. local time on Friday.
Other stops along the trip include: Sudbury Junction, Winnipeg, Saskatoon, Edmonton, Jasper and Kamloops, B.C.

HazMat and CBRNE teams are on site. It is limited to two cars on the train, which indicates likely a powder disbursal rather than airborne.

for the past few months i have found myself biting my tongue at what i have been observing with some participants on jwd.
please keep in mind i have been around since noah on these boards (circa 1997) and have watched several trends and people come and go over the years.. i am not seeking approval, support or anything other than expressing a personal observation.. every once in a while an egoist appears on the ex-jw boards.
more often than not a former elder who feels they continue to hold some sort of special wisdom that they must proclaim to the masses.
Cog:
You have a vast knowledge of many topics and most would do well to listen when you chose to give advice. I also have given advice to some on this and other exJW boards when it has been within my experience to do so.
The point of my post was about those who promote themselves as having answers, those seeking people to come to them for advice.
There is nothing wrong in people sharing their experiences and people learning valuable lessons from others mistakes/successes. But to place oneself as an amateur psychologist or life coach without credentials is fraudulent and people would be wise to give them a wide berth.

I am neither giving Pysch nor relationship advice. It is simply a caution.
I posted as Kismet before (June 2000 I believe was the sign up date) and was mod and participant on H20 for several years prior to Simon creating JWD.

Let see if we can pick out which innocents deserved to die more than the ones that did.
There are many serving at Brooklyn who were just as gullible as you yet you wish them dead. I find this kind of discussion so unpallatable. 9-11 was a huge tragedy. To try and turn it into some sort of potential religious vendetta against the Borg is disgusting in my opinion.
Human life is human life. I understand the anger against the GB but wishing what is posted here upon other humans simply due to a misguided belief is just wrong.
this may not be my dumbest moment, but i'm sure it ranks pretty high.
when i was a young kid, we had a swimming pool.
i used to swim just about every day after school.
dumbest thing?? hmmm

Every once in a while an egoist appears on the ex-jw boards. More often than not a former elder who feels they continue to hold some sort of special wisdom that they must proclaim to the masses. Some even going so far as to start threads encouraging people to come to them for advice. More often than not, these individuals are untrained and at best have read a few self help books or are watching Oprah and Dr Phil religiously. Some are motivated sincerely to help, others are just out to feed their own ego.
Regardless it is extremely dangerous to start dishing out advice, especially on emotional/psychological matters without formal training. Most professionals would refuse to give out some of the advice some have offered and for good reason.
I guess I just want to remind everyone that this is the Internet. This is not the best place for psychological or even relationship advice. Most here are just doing what we can to survive and eek out some happiness in this life. These boards can be great places to vent with people who have similar backgrounds.
Be careful of thsoe who portend or pretend to be all knowing sages. I hate to quote scripture but "Do not put trust in every inspried expression" does apply well.
If someone is giving advice regularly on the Internet, they are doing so knowing full well they cannot be held accountable for it. You have to live with the consequences. So despite the smooth words and good intentions, please be judicious in who, what and how you proceed on receiving advice from anyone on the net including the well intentioned here.
Uzzah
