  VG,

  I think most are agreeing with you; I certainly am. My point is contextually two young women partaking is violating Borg 'rules.' But I'm a strong proponent of violating all of their dumbass controllling rules. I'm with these young women. But I'm also an atheist and don't really care about this weird tradition. I do care about the decent people left inside the hive.

  A farce elder here

  by His Excellency in

  2. experiences

  just to share a little about me:.

  i was recently appointed an elder, about 6 months ago now, and that is exactly two years after my awakenning, but funny that the appointment came also about 2 years after i had completely lost all faith in god and had been leading a full time anti-jw life .

  makes you wonder the role of the holy spirit in the entire nomination or appointment process.. .

  Welcome. I'm with the others; I couldn't fake it. It's a shame you can't be like the Star Trek episode where The Enterprise discovers a wrecked Borg scout ship with a single survivor: a young Borg drone.

  La Forge and Data devised a method to use the captive Borg to destroy the Collective: a geometric formula that is unsolvable, which they plan to show to Hugh (they gave the Borg a name) for analysis. (The theory is that if Hugh views the formula and then returns to the collective, it will spread throughout every drone in the entire race and act like a computer virus - causing a catastrophic system failure, essentially wiping out the Borg species.)

  Glad your'e here, Hugh.

  Rub - agree. Pistoff - delusonal in the sense of all things Borgian and knowing (one would assume since they are indicated to be pioneers) the 'rules.' Not delusional from an external non-Borgian perspective I would agree.

  Since they are pioneers, it wouldn't seem that their partaking would be based on rebellious feelings toward the Borg, even given their ages. Pioneering is a royal pain in the ass, and anyone going that route wouldn't typically fit the rebel. I would lean with Witness on this one; they are likely very close to one another, probably emotionally immature and completely full of themselves with their 'spirituality'. A bit delusional. Kinda like the GB. But they seriously aren't playing by the rules. Good for them! I like these young women!!!

  interesting article about how the mormos have embraced the internet for proselytizing.

  Authorities say the suspect – a man in his 70s who was not identified – was taken into custody outside the Valley Park elementary school. The FBI says it is assisting in the investigation. The suspect fired at people using a shotgun, Overland Park police said, and there is no indication that he knew his victims. Authorities are investigating the possibility that the shootings were a hate crime and said the suspect was not known to police until today.

  Prologos, excellent point and exactly what I was thinking when I read this year old post. They are the wolves and those they seek to bring into a JC or mark or remove are the sheep who have been skinned and thrown about. They can cloak it the other way all they wish but it will not change the reaiity of what they are doing - which is following the Borg's leadership from the Death Star (ok I know I'm combining metahphors from two different sci-fi series, but it fits). I was an elder and by the time I was finished with the Borg, that is exactly how I viewed things. We were the wolves.

  Yes I saw it. Good movie, but it could have been better. You are right about categorizing people to further control them being a bit like the Borg.
