Has anyone seen it?
Very funny. Warning the title of this Showtime production is a volgar word for those who are easily offended. But for those who want a good laugh and lack virgin ears it is really pretty good. Candy for those critical thinking skills.

What Do The English & Australians Think Of Americans On This Board???
by minimus init seems to me that this board's force comes mainly from our english and aussie friends.
i've read comments that some have gotten annoyed that the society and gb seem to only stress the "american" english in their style of writing.
i'm just curious as to what you think of your american brethren.

Aztec stop referring to the men you meet in the bar at 2am as the "average American."
And everyone knows that Brits, Canadians, and Ozzies can hold thier liquor far better than an American.

Why God Won't Go Away: Brain Science and the Biology of Belief
Andrew Newberg, Eugene D'Aquili, Vince RauseMandy you are good enough as you are. Believe in yourself. One thing that we alway worry about is has GAWD forgivin us for our sins. Well, I don't know that I have forgiven him. I suppose no one is perfect so I can forgive him for his sins if he can forgive me. Have you ever thought that we are Gods hands and Gods eyes and Gods ears.......God/Christ/Allah/...Is inside of you and all around you. It is not in a building of wood or stone. (I read that somewhere)

How Do YOU Help New Ones and Lurkers Here at JWD???
by minimus ini think we all share an obligation to help "newbies" and "lurkers" on this forum.one way i try to help is by asking questions that they might be more inclined to think about while in their position.
do you post here with these new ones and lurkers in mind or do you primarily post to share association with friends that you already have?

I think the worst way to turn off people is to "sound like a bitter apostate".
Stop talking about me Minimus
For anyone anywhere in life where things just arn't what they used to be.
For those who want to learn to talk to a JW about things but keep running into wall
This book was the most moving for my personal family
(Seeing double)
I just recommend (plead) that people get all the information if they want to know if they are right. It is an very different thing when they need to be right. Read read read; I like to see people succeed in life. I love happy people. They are the best to be around.

Help! Spouse thinks JW religion the most logical
by bittersweet inmy husband and i were discussing what makes some people become jw's last night.
i was saying that if i hadn't grown up in it, i would have never been drawn to it at all.
i'm not a very spiritual person.

Bittersweet,
Your question/thread will always be the underlying of all my questions here too. How the hell do you logicaly debate a subject that only has one acceptable outcome; They are right and the world is wrong. It could never be that the world is right and they are wrong. And even if the world is right for now someday; God will still distroy this system and put them in charge because their Bible says it's gona be so because they say so.
I have soundly put down arguments put before me again and again. I have finally submitted to the fact that they can put out more propaganda than anyone could counter. If anyone wants to believe it then they will. And it's their right to.
I think all doubting dubs should just debate Farkel. 10 minutes with him should be all it takes to strip things to the real truth of it all. Also, I never read the books on cults and countercults until it was too late. I read them after my relationships with the Jehovah Witnesses was just pushed to far. I wish I had given myself all the information I needed to understand that my kindness was not helping the matter and that my debating and arguing with them was making the matter worse. (I have a habit of not not debating until its to late) And I so did things the wrong way. (I still do but I am trying to be better, softer, and more understanding)
My opinion is that "The Truth" has become the "Big White Whale" of that religion. And logic has nothing to do with it. Ahab thought that he was quite logical.

Mandy it might be worth your time to take some college classes on the philosophy of religion.
Also there is the book "Why won't God go away?" I haven't read it yet but it will twist your question in a whole new way.
There is a difference between Christian values and Christian doctrine/dogmas. But that's a whole different thing.
Truth is you are good enough for God. But you have to accept it.

The Best Reason for freeing Iraq!!
by ThiChi iniraqi prostitutes back on the streets after saddam
baghdad, april 29 (reuters) - um jenan used to wear gold jewellery, tight jeans and see-through blouses to attract vip clients to her apartment in baghdad -- until the masked men in black packed her into a minibus and drove her away.
when they laid out her body in front of her home the next day, she was dressed in loose-fitting sweat pants and a t-shirt.

ThiChi,
You really should know better than to try to jest with pathologically jealous people.

Has anyone ever been told this story:
Everyone had finally made it into heaven and there was a great celibration going on. But Jesus just stood at the gates looking out upon the horizion. And I asked him, "lord what are you doing?" And with a tear in his eyes he replied "I'm waiting for Judus."
If one goes we all go. If one does not go then none of us will. To me, it is that simple.
When someone tells you that you are not good enough for God please, just shrug it off. That person is an idiot.
