And God knows, if the scandals keep airing as they have, there's gonna be a mass exodus to here that will make Moses a boy scout!

Is There Anything Left To Say?
by JH insince nearly 3 years, this site exists.
do you think that every possible topic has been covered?
do you have a hard time finding new topics to talk about, or is it easy for you to think about a new topic every day?.

AWAKE Says We Shouldn't Judge Apostates!
by minimus inthe february 8, 2003 awake has an article entitled:"is there an unforgivable sin".notice the good news for apostates or those who once associated.
"some people who were once faithful christians have purposely drawn away from god, perhaps because of bitterness, pride, or greed, and are now apostate fighters against god's spirit.
they willfully oppose what the spirit is clearly accomplishing.

Precisely. The PRBS Machine (Public Relations Bull-shitting Machine) is truly at work again, spinning lies, innuendoes and half-truths.
God will judge alright, and he'll start right with the people who claim to be his name sake and claim to doing His will!
Calling ex-JWs "apostates" is just another form of slander for which they must answer for.

Elders want letter from my daughter!
by reubenfine inbackground: my unbaptized daughter married an unbaptized young man when they were both 18 years old.
it didn't work out and 2 years later they divorced.. now it's 6 years later, (after the divorce), and my daughter never got baptized.
her ex-husband did and is engaged to another dub.

By holding out on the letter, it will frustrate the attempts at the dub-ex to get married at the hall, because of the WTS decree of "Scriptural" divorce. This term is a farce, of course, because it's based on a judicial committee judgement, rather than any scriptural evidence or decrees. Place it under file "BP" for so-called "Bible Principles" that they always harp about.
By doing (or, in this case, not doing) this, maybe they will marry outside the hall, snub the elders, leave the troof and come to their senses on these Pharisaical legalistic reasonings.

Asshole: by Dennis Leary
Folks, I'd like to sing a song about the American Dream. About me. About you. The way our American hearts beat down in the bottom of our chests. About the special
feeling we get in the cockles of our hearts, maybe below the cockles, maybe in the sub-cockle area. Maybe in the liver. Maybe in the kidneys. Maybe even in the colon,
we don't know.
I'm just a regular Joe with a regular job
I'm your average white suburbanite slob
I like football and porno and books about war
I've got an average house with a nic hardwood floor
My wife and my job, my kids and my car
My feet on my table, and a cuban cigar
But sometimes that just ain't enough to keep a man like me interested
(Oh no) No Way (Uh-uh)
No, I've gotta go out and have fun
At someone else's expense
(Oh yeah) Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
I drive really slow in the ultrafast lane
While people behind me are going insane
I'm an asshole (He's an asshole, what an asshole)
I'm an asshole (He's an asshole, such an asshole)
I use public toilets and piss on the seat
I walk around in the summertime saying, "How about this heat?"
I'm an asshole (He's an asshole, what an asshole)
I'm an asshole (He's the world's biggest asshole)
Sometimes I park in handicapped spaces
While handicapped people make handicapped faces
I'm an asshole (He's an asshole, what an asshole)
I'm an asshole (He's a real fucking asshole)
Maybe I shouldn't be singing this song
Ranting and raving and carrying on
Maybe they're right when they tell me I'm wrong
Naaaah!
I'm an asshole (He's an asshole, what an asshole)
I'm an asshole (He's the world's biggest asshole)
[Spoken]
You know what I'm gonna do? I'm gonna get myself a 1967 Cadillac El Dorado convertible, hot pink with whaleskin hub caps and all leather cow interior and big brown
baby seal eyes for headlights, yeah! And I'm gonna drive around in that baby at 115mph getting one mile per gallon, sucking down quarter pounder cheese burgers from
McDonald's in the old-fashioned non-biodegradable styrofoam containers and when I'm done sucking down those grease ball burgers, I'm gonna wipe my mouth with the
American flag and then I'm gonna toss the styrofoam container right out the side and there ain't a God damned thing anybody can do about it. YOu know why? Because
we got the bombs, that's why.
[Spoken]
Two words. Nuclear fucking weapons, okay?! Russia, Germany, Romania - they can have all the Democracy they want. They can have a big democracy cake-walk
right through the middle of Tiananmen square and it won't make a lick of difference because we've got the bombs, okay?! John Wayne's not dead - he's frozen. And as
soon as we find the cure for cancer we're gonna thaw out the duke and he's gonna be pretty pissed off. You know why? Have you ever taken a cold shower? Well
multiple that by 15-million times, that's how pissed off the Duke's gonna be. I'm gonna get the Duke and John Cassavetes...
(Hey)
and Lee Marvin
(Hey)
and Sam Pekinpah
(Hey)
And a case of Whiskey and drive down to Texas...
(Hey, you know you really are an asshole)
Why don't you just shut-up and sing the song pal!
I'm an asshole (He's an asshole, what an asshole)
I'm an asshole (He's the world's biggest asshole)
A-S-S-H-O-L-E Everybody! A-S-S-H-O-L-E

Arf Arf Arf Arf Arf Arf Arf

Welcome to Canadian air!
Over the next couple of weeks, much of North America is supposed to get frigid temps with likely overnight freeze warnings in North to Central Florida, too. In S. Ont., here, the snow's come off the lake pretty good in the last week, but we were green for New year's! Wacky weather for sure. Places like Chicago (and Minnesota likely) are gonna see minus-numbers, or even minus-teens. Brrrr.

I'm not gonna put views or words in anyone's mouth, but 20 million people weekly listen to people like Rush Limbaugh all afternoon, sometimes he's right, but mostly he makes me sick... It's often all too tempting to categorize left vs. right, Republican vs. Democrat, ad nauseum. I like to keep my views sharing the principles of all parties, mixed in with some of my own. Using terms like "left coast", for example, can prove to be generalizing and inflammatory. Many Californians abhor Gray Davis. That doesn't make all Californians valley girls or Berkeley "peace-niks". Those were comparatively small enclaves of political opinion.
I do appreciate all the views and opinions expressed in this thread. TH with the pepper spray, Yizuman's observations which I changed my mind on, and the others...well done, as far as I'm concerned.

Look, there are better ways to handle family dogs...here's what I would do.
Shut the door...
Call an animal handler specialist to take control of the dogs, then search the car afterwards
.
Yeah, point well taken. Obviously, dealing with animals should be part of an officer's intensive training.

As much as I despise litigiousness, I definitely see the need for the courts to be involved here. What bugs me, is that the molesters can case other joints, so to speak, out in "service", looking for more victims. It will be hard, however, fighting the unpaid WTS volunteer lawyers with equivalent paid ones, and the WTS is excellent in finding snakes who can slither through any argument and flummox multiple judges. Afterall, it's "theocratic warfare!"
This quote was there: The oppressive organization does not represent historical, Biblical Christianity in any way.
Spiritual terrorists, is more like it. On the contrary, they represent the Pharisees and the Saducees, who were by definition anti-Christian. (or anti-Christs, if you take it that far.) Legalism at its finest. -

That's what cops have to deal with too, now he's a target with his name and number posted all over the place, and believe me, he's living it down second by tenth of second. That's sad, too. It's all sad.
