Are we equal...?
by DannyBear inwhen an employer resorts to comments like 'who sign's your check?
' or 'are you biting the hand that feed's you?
', it is normally due to some perceived or overt violation of loyalty, or simply to shut the employee up regarding the subject matter at hand.. i don't like the tactic, because it is rarely used in a one on one situaltion, but generally in the ear shot of other's, to squelch the matter.

Nothing has changed
by Norm inhaving read some of the posts in the military tribunal thread make me wonder about the perspective of the american population in general.
it seems to be more egocentric then ever.

Jehovah has real smart bombs
by Norm inin brooklyn they praised jehovahs smart bomb capability many years ago.
*** w55 7/15 436-7 war from heaven brings peace to earth ***.
men can spray a field with chemicals that kill weeds but spare crops; too bad they cannot spray cities with bombs that blow the bad to bits but leave the innocent intact.. 11 the battle of armageddon is righteous and in harmony with jehovahs attributes of justice, power, wisdom and love.

"Wait On Jehovah"
by silentlambs inwait on jehovah, is an interesting terminology.
it is used basically to stop an action from taking place.
