yea but that still doesn't change the fact that
they're kim oyhus' ideas and not yours -
funny how you "overlooked" crediting the idea to it's author
author is an interesting word to understand if you like trying to

there is a fallacy of logic that is so common that few people realize that it is, indeed, a fallacy of logic: the fallacy by appeal to nature.. one argument against homosexuality goes something like this:.
the natural use of the reproductive organs is obviously to make children.
using these organs in a way that cannot produce children is unnatural and thus ethically wrong.. .

Dear JanH, a quick question: is this yet another theory of "yours" plagiarised from the thesis of Kim Oyhus?
no, this ain't no advertisement, since the auction is long over.... * http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/ebayisapi.dll?viewitem&item=1129186088.
just wanted to illustrate the value some collectors put on the old watchtower stuff, and that it is wise to hang onto it and if someone wants to 'pay through the teeth' to acquire it, well and good, because that way it is preserved, and not gone and forgotten, but rather the watchtower's rich heritage lives on and the litter-chewer & sundry memorabilia is on someone's shelf or in their display cabinet for anyone to see in case there's a future challenge that such never existed.. who in their right mind would pay over $13 bucks for a little worm-eaten tea bag??
a krazy kult kollector, that's who!.
i've got an engraved drinking mug which had been given to judge rutherford as a xmas present - the inscription reads - to dear judge rutherford - merry christmas and a happy new year - lots of warm christian love - from the bethel family.
would i be able to sell it tallyman?
consider the exit doors for the governing body.. we know that there was no authoritative governing body before 1976, so i will limit the scope of this thought to the time since then.
how do members leave the governing body?.
exit door number one: death; taken by most.. exit door number two: disgrace; taken by a couple.. exit door number three: triumph; taken by raymond franz.. has it ever been the case where a governing body member has left because of senility?
The Governing Body Manual - what a freakout skimmer ag.
having had a week away from home, i'm astonished at the way some posters have started to behave.
this site seems suddenly to be full of vitriol.. now i don't pretend to be every one's favourite pussy cat, and i will always be as outspoken as i choose to be, but i do not attack people personally, i only attack what they believe if i am convinced that their beliefs are anti-social or detrimental.
i don't attack the person propagating that belief.
and the mice came out to play englishman ag.

newbies, you will know him as bad ass.
miss your sarcam dude.
darkclouds did nic just hand you the can opener? (see his erotica post) ag.
ps. last we heard bad ass had been tarred, feathered and run out of town on a rail - for no less than first degree juvenile mole-est-a -shun wihin the confines of the chat room -
lived up to a low reputation.
i want to share a perspective, with everyone that comes here to read, for i feel it will take some of us in a new direction.
perhaps it will allow for some creative thinking and interesting discussion or maybe it simply wont go anywhere.
it does not really matter either way, for there are subjects which can only be speculated on and thoughts which can only be shared.
ps. your bible thoughts - it seems to me like everything is cool with the bible if you just dont blow it out of proportion - it's the story of a history of a particular people/culture - israel - isreals relationship or form of worship of IT'S "god" and then with a few added other events tacked on - like for example - the appearance & disappearance and re-appearence of an odd messiah here or there - it teaches you some lessons about life and how to have a relationship with isreals particular "god"/s - if you want to - just like the holybooks of lot of other faiths do - except you worship their particular "god" according to their particular description of how thats done - and so on - around the world - more or less
what if you allow for the possibility that maybe these books weren't written by god in the sense of what most people would expect a book written by god would be - or should be
what if a book written by god could be fallible? what if it was no more inspired than that of an inspired poet? -
what if a book written by a god didn't have to be believable? ag.

just got off the marijuana thread and now i think i'm seeing double - cool rave clouds - i dug it - i remember you talking about the political aspect before but i think i'm starting to see what you are getting at - which is something i hadn't thought about too much - it was interesting the way you put your idea across - well what i'm talking about is the same idea but on a much smaller level - much more of a microcosm - trying to sort the political shit out of a small group of people - maybe even as small as - two? - there's usually some kind of politics going down - personal agenda - in all it's variety of shades - getting past that - and not caring about that difference - the difference between yourself and another individual - i suppose that's where i am - my thoughts kind of are - amongst other seriously out there places - far too profane to mention on a christian bulletin board - - (this is my alfred hitchcock style of writing in case you hadn't noticed) ag.
to wendy & prisca,.

lonewolf - a brief interuption to your conversation with those whome you're adressing down this thread - but i really enjoyed reading that post - thanks. ag
