Why do men only have good ideas during sex? Because they are plugged into a genius !
I rarely go here, don't know why. Thanks for the chuckle. I'll have to remember this one.

How many men does it take to open a beer?
by DanTheMan inhow many men does it take to open a beer?.
none, it should be opened when she brings it.. why is a laundromat a really bad place to pick up a woman?.
because a woman who can't even afford a washing machine will probably never be able to support you.. why do women have smaller feet than men?.

The hate on this site is a hate only love can know...
by logansrun init has often been said that the opposite of love is not hate, but indifference.
so, do you "hate" the watchtower society?
could this "hate" be a concealed love?

I also agree with jgnat. I do think sometimes it can be blurred when we have strong feelings for someone. But then you have to ask yourself, when you do have these flip-flop feelings towards someone, is it real love. Personally I don't think so. There's a big difference between justifiable anger or hatred for a deed done than the roller coaster ride of unbalanced feelings, emotion (I hate you, I love you). As an example I hate what the org stands for. I believe it's justifiable anger. It does'nt mean that I have deep seated love for this org. Hope my post makes sense.

Reading the bible but not applying it to your every day life is much like..
by azaria in...reading a recipe book but never actually trying the recipes.
i feel that in a way thats what ive sometimes done.
i do believe that the bible is a guide on how to live but too many of us think that all we need is the knowledge and were all set.

...reading a recipe book but never actually trying the recipes. I feel that in a way that’s what I’ve sometimes done. I do believe that the bible is a guide on how to live but too many of us think that all we need is the knowledge and we’re all set. Maybe it’s a fear of really living. I see people that are so imprisoned by their beliefs that they can’t truly live the way God wants us to, people who seem to know all the answers but don’t know how to give of themselves. I could be wrong but I don’t believe that God ever intended for us to take reading of the bible more seriously than living good lives, to truly love one another, not just to say the words, but to actually live it, by being there for one another. There’s been other things, but reading Crisis of Conscience also brought it home to me. Here you have men of self imposed authority who seem to know the rules but have forgotten the first and probably only rule; to have compassion for another human being.
I hope you get the gist of my post. I’ll blame the wording on the wine I had earlier.

Hi Puternut, First I want to say that I'm so glad for you that you have a relationship with your daughters again. Maybe someday the same will be true with your brother. In my case it's my mother that's in the clutches of this org. I hope and pray that she, and also the loved ones of people on this board will one day see the truth. Tot ziens

Hi Leeha, I havent't read all the responses so don't know if it's already been mentioned. There's always a possibility that it may be at your library. I'm borrowing CoC from the library. I had it for three weeks but I wasn't finished so yesterday I asked for a weeks extention.

bought ENEMIES by Rutheford today
by azaria inat an old book store.
not sure if i wasted my money or if i will find anything of any significance.
while skimming through it though i noticed how the catholic church is so demonized; how everything evil in this world is because of the catholic church.

at an old book store. Not sure if I wasted my money or if I will find anything of any significance. While skimming through it though I noticed how the Catholic Church is so demonized; how everything evil in this world is because of the Catholic Church. These lines caught my eye:
Fascism and Nazism mean one and the same thing and are the instrument of the Roman Catholic Hierarchy, the child of the Devil, to gain control of the earth by the Hierarchy and turn all people against God and his kingdom.
Amongst her instruments that she uses are ultraselfish men called "Jews", who look only for personal gain, and who therefore readily yield to and join with the Hierarchy in any unrighteous schemes
I'm still reading CoC.. I'm at chapter 11-Point of Decision. I honestly didn't realize how vile this org (Governing Body) is. I empathize with the average person who truly doesn't know what goes on. At times I thought, this can't be true, this is fiction. I'm not sure how much longer I can keep quiet. I want so badly to tell my mother what I know. I really feel for her. She hasn't said too much to me (since my dad passed away) I feel she's too scared of alienating me. I'm the only person she has besided the congregation. When I called her a few days ago she admitted that only one person in the congregation helps her. This is a person that my mother has an immense dislike for, how ironic. She mentioned how last Sunday they talked about uplifting each other and I casually mentioned how sometimes it's just talk and she agreed. I was really surprised that she would admit that. Sorry for rambling. During the summer I don’t come here as much because of work so I want to put everything in one post.

Observing the Sabbath
by azaria ina while ago my mother mentioned not observing the sabbath which surprised me.. ray franz also mentions it in his book coc.
one day while reading my bible i came across these verses.
hebrews 4:1 therefore, since the promise of entering his rest still stands, let us be careful that none of you be found to have fallen short of it.

It's About INVENTORY, Stupid!
by Farkel inin 1940, former zone servant harvey h. fink wrote that the wts was "set up by presumptous men whose interest in spite of their pretenses to the contray, is primarily selling books for revenue.." and that the wts demanded that books containing outdated doctrine would still "be sold to the people very definitely, because it wanted to get the revenue out of them in spite of the errors it willing admitted they contained.
strong words, indeed.
is the wts so currupt and greedy that they would knowlingly make their membership buy and sell books that contained admitted false prophecies and outdated doctrines?

I can't believe that the book is 678, 324 pages long! At the rate of 100 pages per day, 7 days a week, it would take about 17 years to read it. Did I calculate wrong? I didn't think any book could physically be that big to hold so many pages.
