Gumby,
If a person gives up a "belief system," what difference does it really make? You stll having a hard day at work?
Mr. KIM
how do you now understand the world... and your place in it?.
i personally believe in evolution... and also a "higher power"... it seems more and more people are drifting away from organized religion, but they are then left searching for meaning and purpose..... going to college/university and studying a normal curriculum, one is exposed to philosophy, the socrates and platos of history, who in many ways started widespread discussion on such topics as above.
some sort of philosophy has to be studied i believe, just so one can understand the history of man, from that point in time and how we came to christianity in the first place.. however, it is a very personal matter, as we must all find our own answers.. i believe it is natural for people to be drawn to ponderings of purpose and god, and there are many ways to seek connection to that souce.

As long as a group of humans DON'T control what you believe and if you will NOT allow other humans to dictate to you the "cans" and the "Cant's," everyone should do fine with a good moral upbringing and basic guidance.
I'll stop and won't go any farther on the subject.......
Mr. KIM
.
were the french partisans, who resisted the german occupation of france in ww2, terrorists?.
yes or no.. stan
I guess the government already answered the question for us!
.
john geoghan, the central figure in the catholic church child molestation investigation, was killed in prison today!.
sorry, no link, but is all over the news.
Justice served.......................
the october 1 watchtower 2001 features articles on training children "properly" and dealing with a "prodigal child.
the latest inside u.s. figures reveal that 86% of jw children leave the fold, with some 29% who eventually come back for reasons of family ties, most never "reaching out.
" that means over half leave permanently.
Lots of good information! More proof that "The Truth" does not practice what they preach.
Hypocrisy rules!
Mr. Kim
this is hilarious!
i am so surprised that the society has counsel on learning the klingon language.
*** g95 12/8 p. 8 a look at todays science fiction ***.
We gotta learn Borg from the WTB&TS. We should be able to learn Klingon. Fair is fair ..........
Shouldn't the Borg-Org remove the rafter from their own eye first?
Mr. KIM
up high on my list has to be when a jw co-worker named john fitzgerald tore into me one morning (when i was coming in late for work) for grabbing a quick piece of cake from the lunch room.
turns out, someone in this small little office had brought in the remainder of their birthday cake for folks at work to finish up eating.
john was older than i and a ministerial servant (ooh) and felt it his responsibility to keep me on the straight and narrow.
So much to say and show. The deeper thoughts and secrets of members and how a special fake presentation is put on each meeting, field service and the cliques where true bullshit and hypocrisy rules!
Mr. KIM
Good Luck on the interview!

Remember, don't tell them you are a JW! No matter what.
Don’t forget about the theocratic war strategy. In reality, because of this “strategy” and other mitigating factors, Jehovah’s Witnesses are considered ineligible for many job opportunities (from knowledgeable employers) which require a history of trust, emotional stability, rational & analytical thinking.
Mr. KIM
some individuals truly enjoy being jehovah's witnesses.
i think about those that would have liked to be in acting.
well, having a part in a demonstration in the service meeting or giving a talk in the theocratic ministry school gives one the opportunity to act, be melodramatic, show a little comedic talent,etc.
Please, anybody, show me the PROOF that JWs are the "TRUE" religion. If I or you look at the various "works", deeds and the "behind the scene" actions of the Governing Body and the various elders spread throughout the land, a very different truth or reality is revealed. If I or you look at the FACTS available on many topics concerning the Jehovah's Witnesses, our eyes become opened and our heart will once again rejoice as we start to become free of enslavement to the teachings and doctrine of men.
And finally, if almighty God would allow you to see for a few brief seconds into the hearts of those that promote falsehoods and those that have caused the pain and suffering in the WTB&TS, you too will see the fire that burns for the truth that has been polluted by the pride and arrogance of man that lusts for power and control instead of true brotherhood and love for all of Mankind. Yes, you will see the truth that is on it's way.
Judgment Soon, ....time is all there is left........
Mr. KIM
out of their own mouths (well, web-site actually): .
jehovah's witnesses avoid making rules and regulations beyond those provided in the scriptures, and they do not follow traditions that contradict bible teachings.
emphasis is placed on personal application of bible principles and the value of a sound, bible-based conscience.matthew 15:9; 2 corinthians 1:24.. just thought you'd like to know!
Jehovah's Witnesses avoid making rules and regulations beyond those provided in the Scriptures, and they do not follow traditions that contradict Bible teachings.
My response is: BULLSHIT !
at the appointed time........SOON.........
Mr. KIM
