I see. Ok, but only if they're blonde with blue eyes, the kind that Leni Riefenstahl made those really great films about. Any ideas about uniforms for our patriotic youths?

Is it time to demollish the welfare state in the UK
by Gill init's an unfortunate fact that the uk is gradually slip sliding away in the ranks of great achieving countries.. our tennis players aspire to greatness but slip at the last, and often first hurdle.
our national health service though catering to all, is no where near the quality it should be.
i can vouch for that fact from last weekends experience, having to call an emergency doctor out to see my son, he missed totally what was wrong with him.

So I say we euthanize everyone at 62.
My, god you're generous. I was thinking 50.
mtbatoon, I agree in principle about the public holiday display, but couldn't we just have a couple of well embalmed stiffs? Or maybe use animatronics. Or perhaps age the underserving poor through radiation exposure at the local power station where they work unprotected... yes. I think I'm onto something there.

Homosexuality What the Bible Really Says...
by EvilForce into all my very patient friends out there thank for your support here.
over many threads i have argued and posted on what various indivdual versus in the bible say.
to put it all together i decided to create it's own topic thread so it could be referred back to in the future.

To put it briefly: I'd say that trying to enrol the Bible as a whole into a defense of gay rights is desperate -- some Bible texts are clearly homophobic, just as some Bible texts are mysoginist, racist or ;antisemitic. Putting the different texts into perspective and appreciating their nuances is much more liberating in the long run.
Very true, Narkissos.
I have had to do some research very recently because my parents decided to finally corner me on the whole "gay thing". Since they are active JW's I have to battle them on their turf so to speak. They won't listen to "doctors" or "mental professionals" so I have to use the tool they will listen to.
EF, what was the outcome with your parents?

CoreThis isn't the story of tij, he posted that when he first arrived on this site. You should go back and read it before you start making judgements. This post is about his letter to the GB. An adulterous elder is not automatically dfed, which you should know having been an elder. Four years ago the Presiding Overseer of the congregation I was in had a brief affair with the Service Overseer's pioneer wife and neither of them were dfed, but reproved.
tij's downfall was possibly because he was a popular, slightly maverick elder (yes, I know him), hence the quick chop.

JW women focused on appearance!
by Sirona init really gets on my nerves.. jw women used to be always focused, as their number one thing, on appearance.
they could be crap at the rest of the jw stuff, but if they turned up at the meeting dressed nice, thin, long hair, looking nice, all was forgiven.
of course it was because of the misogyny (sp?

There is a lot of focus on appearance I agree, but
It seems that the JW ideal is a slim, figureless girl with long hair, who never asks questions.
if that's the ideal they have a long way to go because there were a lot of full figured opinionated women in the KHs round here. Fortunately, that's how I like them, big and sassy.
