unbaptised, but Jesus DID. He got in the pharisees faces GOOD! And Jesus was the head of John and the rest of the Christian congregation which actually LEFT their religion to follow Jesus.

can a person become anointed before being baptised?

You JW's all have "goat gloat". Everyone who doesn't get baptized the second they hear your message is a "goat". You gloat over their coming deaths. What would happen if God killed all JW's for "lack of mercy"?
Coooooooeeeeeeeee, mcsemike! You da' MAN, chere! Every one of your "bombs" hit da nail on da head, but I just copied the last one to save on Simon's bandwidth.

i've been re-thinking about what to say when jw's come knockin'.
i've thought about what the scriptures say about jesus' words to the pharisees and think perhaps i might say, "i don't have any interest in the doctrines and writings of the scribes and pharisees of the wts.".
or maybe i could just say, "yall're just wts nazis and you look down on everyone else as if they were jews during wwii, so i'd prefer not to converse with you.".
"Why would a God of Love want to kill billions of his children?"
Twitch, I don't in any way mean to stick a pin in your balloon, chere....but I'm afraid they've got the standard analogical JW answer to that. It concerns finding a nest of vipers in your yard and killing off, yes, even the babies, because they're gonna grow up to be just like the parents. I know. It doesn't make sense to me, either. Humans aren't vipers....well, not all of 'em, anyway. AND....an omnipotent deity should be capable of changing personalities and ending faulty thinking.

hello my dearest friends.
so sorry that i have not been online much.
i have been quite busy lately!.
What should I reply with? "Mom, any info you will look up to give me will also be written by an imperfect man...so don't bother. I am SO POSITIVE that I am correct, that I am literally willing to bet my life on it.....literally"
Naaah, that'd just be pouring gasoline on their little fire, Schism. I totally think the "bomb's bomb" would be more affective.....and entertaining, to boot, chere!

Silver, those links you posted are outstanding and all "must-sees!" Thank you for posting them, chere!
Tell them you're Jewish and you don't talk to apostates. They have no rehashed scripts for talking to Jews, I know from experience.
Great advice, Moshe! I lurv your avatar, btw!

skywatchers eagerly awaiting saturday's total lunar eclipse say that the spectacle could be the "best in years".
the eclipse begins at 2018 gmt, with the moon totally immersed in the shadow of the earth between 2244 and 2358 gmt.
Also, the moon becomes FULL tonight. Gotta go trim my hair now!

Your additions, priceless! I think that would bomb the BOMB.
LMAO, Schism! I totally concur with jgnat! Your "asides" are a SCREAM!!! I'd drop da bomb's bomb, if it were me, chere.

well, i thought i'd start a fluff thread for once, so i'm posting here some of my favorite photos from my many trips over the years.
i hope you enjoy them and they inspire you to take awesome pictures on your own travels (or even your own backyard).
[edited to add...let's hope this formatting helps...jgnat].
Leolaia, you do good fluff, chere! I love the cherry blossoms. They remind me of when I lived in D.C. near the Potomac around cherry blossom time.
All the pics everyone posted are absolutely breathtaking! (sighs)

Schism, I lurv jgnat's idea on "dressed to kill." LOL! Also, you might include an email to 'em that you'll be pleased to have the opportunity to bring along many copies of the UN/NGO letter to pass out to the cong members while you're there.
There are none so blind as those who have their heads in the dark tunnel where the sun doesn't shine any true light.
Great letter, Schism. Yep, they're in denial.

darkness and light.. something and nothing.. heat and cold.. happiness and sadness.. love and hate.. which of the above are actually existing things and which are conceptual constructs?.
hint: this is a trick question.
but, go ahead and answer anyway.
Terry, my current mindset is bipolar and cannot be hacked. It is often irrational and out of control, ergo, I am a "fly-by-the-seat-of-my-pants" person.
But this is good shtuff, Terry. Did you get this from a study of critical thinking?
