i have not yet read this book, but it should be interesting:.
"the better angels of our nature: why violence has declined", steven pinker.. the publicity blurb states:.
"believe it or not, today we may be living in the most peaceful moment in our species' existence.
It just went on my "Priority. must read" list.

i've just finished reading two (imo) great books:.
"a history of christianity - the first three thousand years", by diarmaid macculloch.
"misquoting jesus", by bart ehrman.
They just went on my " Must read ", list!! Thanks.
i heard from a reliable source that a one-day assembly in arizona last weekend had a "cost" to the publishers of $17,000.. predictably, the elders were nice enough to obligate the attendees to a $6,000 donation to wt before the assembly "costs" (i.e.
"rent/extortion) were even met.
$11,000 rent plus $6000 in extra "donations".
$17000 in Arizona? That's ridiculous by California standards even. How many of them attended? Jumping greenbacks! What did the rent? A Republican convention? That's a years salary for quite a portion of Ari's. population.
Here's my two bits . Four for your exotics.

"Keep calm and be a Jehovah's witness", especialy if you get caught engaging in pedophilia. Jehovah will protect you.
" Keep calm and be a Jehovah's witness," especially when the WBTS has gyped you of all your wealth/property. Jehovah will give it all back to you thousand fold just like he did the poor sucker Job!
" Keep calm and be a Jehovah's witness", when you are terminally ill and need a blood transfusion- but don't take it. Die instead, and Jehovah will transfuse health into you - after resurrection!
" Keeep calm and be a Jehovah's witness", even though you know it's all cultic BS. Or you will "no longer be a Jehovah's witness!"
Keep calm and be a Jehovah's witness", because you have an IQ of 5.And can't tell whether your logic is from your ass, or a braying pack of asanine ass*****! The GB and it's minions.

the month started of quietly then all of a sudden news his the uk about a former jw elder who molested and raped woman and girls.
then just after as the dust started to settle news out of dallas texas where a complaint was filed alleging elders and a circuit overseer molested and abused six or more victim's.
before this news even had a chance to resinate threw the ears of those hearing it another complaint was filed in the state of connecticut of four more alleged victims.
100 years later, in the month of October, the dung hits the ceiling. The irony of of poetic justice or the poetic justification of irony? !!
hi all, especially the scholars amongst you ;)a .
i was listening to richard dawkin's talk at lynchburg va and he was tlaking about how horrible the god of the old testament was- and he mentioned this: .
that when jeptha's daughter came out (and jeptha had promised god he'd sacrifice the first thing out of his house) that he had to sacrifice her as a burnt offering.
Marked. Thanks.
when i was a hyperactive kid, i used to like boxing, and of course muhammad ali.
he was a great athlete, with a one-of-a-kind style who made a stand for his beliefs.. now that i'm older, i admire athletes that are quieter and get on with the job in hand - joe frazier, for example.. i'd like to put american racial politics and ali's tragic current condition to one side and focus on the following:.
how good a fighter was ali?.
