That Havenco sight is great!!! I can't believe nobody thought of that sooner.
On the flip side, if you need to have a host for that kind of stuff a Slovak Republik (.sk) domain will be safe for you too.
i was searching for a site that hosted kingdom ministry scans but to no avail.
does anyone know of such a site?.
if not, i am willing to scan kingdom ministries as they come (i also have a backlog of several years worth) if anyone is willing to put them on a website?.

if there is a god, why would god want/need worship from you?.
the only people who want to be worshipped or adored by the world tend to be mad dictators and film star etc.its a quality i've always hated the desire to have strangers love you even though they don't know you personnally, and i tend not to like people who look up to celebrities etc who they don't know.. so why would a god want your worship?
Ok, look, I can probably answer this question better than anyone here because, well, god is my dad and I've been around him a bit more than all of you have.
Plain and simple, he doesn't want or need people to worship him. Some humans came up with that idea so that they could get power over other humans. In fact, people who spend a bunch of time doing their thing to praise us just kind of piss us off. For some reason they think that suffering or going without for us somehow makes them more holy than the people out there who are actually going out and enjoying all the great things in the world and trying to make it a better place. You all have a lot of really great things to see, hear, taste, smell, feel, and experience. Make as much as you can from it all and really enjoy it. That's how we know you're truly appreciative, not by how much you turn all that stuff away.
dear dr. laura,.
thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding god's law.
i have learned a great deal from you, and i try to share that knowledge with as many people as i can.
Not only that but the only scripture they have to argue against tatoos is old testament as well. What's really odd is right after that scripture saying don't get tatoos is the one that says don't shave your beard. Funny how they will pay attention to the points that only serve them.
Sorry, I know that was off topic but just something that has always bugged the living crap out of me since hearing that someone was bad association because he has a beard and tatoos and show the scripture saying tatoos are bad.
i think i may have a potential problem on my hand.
over the last year or so, i've been attempting to go the slow fade route with the jw religion.
for the most part i've succeded, as my significant decrease in jw related activities has been greeted only by brief "pep talks" by my parents at worse.
Lie. Lie. Lie. Those bastards have absolutely no authority over you unless you give it to them. They're always going on about how they can lie for "theocratic warfare" so why can't you? Unless you have a small child your highest priority is yourself, not them, not the WBTS. Do what YOU need to do make life easiest for YOU. If need be I also liked the stop bathing option.
As for the whole period bit, I know a certain mortal (not me of course) who when in high school would attempt to get out of classes all the time by saying HE (as in a male, person with a weenie) was either having menstral cramps or his ovaries hurt. Amazing thing was every once in a while the teachers would actually cut him some slack or at least let him go down to the nurse's office (well, that's where he said he was going anyway, naughty boy that he was usually heading off with a member of the opposite sex to better understand her opposite parts).
most of you know about the story of the ms who ratted on wildturkey and me for smoking at the club, he smoked one of my cigs and was there with his girlfriend (he is married).
well, i ran into him last night at the club and confronted him,, i asked him why he told on us, i just wanted to know, he said he didnt know why, he just felt pressured..i asked if he told on himself he said no!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i wanted to slap him right there.
Ok, you want revenge but want to wait a little bit? You should wait, as other people have said, revenge is a dish best served cold. Wait until around Christmas. Place an ad in the newspaper. Say you're a mulching company and need some material for the coming spring. Say you'll pay top dollar if people will bring you their old Christmas trees. They should bring them to your house, preferably at an inconvenient time. Of course, say you're whoever you're trying to nail. Not only do they have a bunch of Christmas tress piling up in the front yard but they have angry people wanting money to help pay the Christmas bills. The results are humorous beyond belief!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh yeah, tell the rat MS's wife about his girlfriend. I've seen firsthand what happens when you do something like that to someone. Its not pretty.
did man go to the moon?.
just watched an amazing programme that claimed the moon landings were faked.i was supprised at how compeling the evidence against a moon landing was.anyone know more about the subject?.
if it is true that this didn't happen it raises a whole lot of questions about how trust worthy our governments are.
Totally amazing. People take a "Maybe we did, maybe we didn't" stance when it comes to something like landing on the moon. Something where there are boatloads of proof people doubt if it really happened or not because they think it was faked. Yet when it comes to something like if a simple screen shot could be altered people will scream bloody murder when you even suggest it could be done at all. Something three decades later, that's much simpler, with much more advanced technology.
Sometimes people really amaze me.

I don't see anything wrong with jacking the price on items. Hey, you paid a certain price for something which makes the original guy happy because he got what he wanted for them. Not only that but the people who bought them are happy because they paid what they deemed a fair price for something that was convenient for them to get. Its not that much different than the convenience store on the corner charging more for a box of cereal than the grocery further down the street. I've always said that any given item is worth whatever amount of money people are willing to pay for it. The guy's making an honest buck so why knock that?

While I agree that stuff like this is horrible what did they really expect? Some idiots go into an area that they know won't be hospitable to them and start going around to people's houses in an attempt to push something off on people that they know are violently opposed to. Sure, I think its bad that it happened but you really can't be too suprised about it.

Yeah, I didn't actually write any of those parables from back in the day. If you'll notice, all those books about me were written long after I died. All of my stupid apostles were always trying to out do each other so they thought they'd write some hokey stories and attribute them to me. Those guys lied like crazy. Jeez, they never even mentioned all the ladies I used to get back then.

There was once a crazy man who was very angry and had a gun that wished to use. He told himself that the next person that comes to his door will be shot dead. Being as he lived out in the middle of nowhere he could get away with it and no one would ever know what happened to the people that got shot. Of course, the next people to show up were some JW's. He looked out the door and saw some people with bibles so he decided to talk to them before he shot them. He talked to them and decided that he wouldn't shoot them. A few years later he had started taking medication and his homocidal tendancies had subsided. The two JW's who showed up at his door got married and had some children. Since they were good little JW's they didn't want their children to be influenced by bad association and home schooled their children but instead of learning how to read they learned how to haul tomatoes. One day while one of the children were hauling tomatoes he saw a sign about how there was work being done on the road and to detour around it but since he had spent so much time learning about tomatoes and not how to read he couldn't tell what that sign said and he didn't take the detour. Things went badly and he ended up striking and killing many people including the man that decided not to shoot his parents.
The moral of the story is you should always shoot all JW's on sight.
The other moral of the story is not all stories with morals are even half way logical.
