Haven't actually sifted through all of this, but why must we be Israel's keeper? Why haven't we gotten up in the face of the British over Ireland in the last hundred years? Or any other of a number of situations. And since when does cowboy aggression help diplomacy?

Why are we telling Iran they can't have nukes?
by mavie inwatching the democratic debates i was struck how every candidate, save dennis kucinich, pledged to prevent iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon.
iran is a sovereign state, diplomacy which ends in 'you can't have this, but we can' will not work.
what would happen if another country told us we couldn't have nukes?

I've had enough of truth twisting maggots.
Whew! Gregor! Glad to hear it. So it's safe to assume this means you wouldn't listen to Rush or watch Fox News?

WOW!! When I was 17, I got caught climbing out of my window in the middle of the night to hang out with a group of other witness kids who had escaped their bedrooms. He was one of them (he would have been 19 at the time I think). This is actually the "he" referred to in the elders question "Did he touch your breasts?" He didn't.
I think I'll take a shower now.

LEAST RELIGIOUS COUNTRIES
by sspo inleast religious countriesposted aug 23rd 2007 12:15pm by iva skoch.
when you travel to europe, don't be surprised to find that many europeans don't believe in god.
i have even witnessed some alcohol-infused conversations between americans and europeans that almost ended in fistfights over his/her existence.

You can be Disfellowshiped for being too FAT!!!!!
by Witness 007 inwatch 74 p.167 "by disobediently overindulging in food and making a glutton of himself, he fails to show love for jehovah god...is food a big thing in his life?
if in the presents of others, does he selfishly ignore thier needs and take far more then his share?
is he grossly overweight but shows no restraint at all as to food, habitually gorging himself?

When I was about 14, I got baptized. At the next meeting, (what the heck were they called? Ministry school?) they had everyone who had been baptized at the last assembly come up on stage. There were probably 8 of us. I had never joined the MS, and never been on stage, because I got ill at the very thought of it, could hardly manage the door to door hell once in a while. Anyway, they began to go down the line asking everyone what made them decide to get bptzd. I swear, I thought I was going to pass out as they got closer and closer to me. I finally thought of a one line answer, which the girl just in front of me promptly said! I just started to laugh and giggle, and wish I were dead. At last they moved on to the next victim in line. My stomach turns right now, just thinking about it. Some sister came up to me after the meeting, and said "I was so moved that you were crying! It made me cry too!"
I do however own several maps.

by RisingEagle inok, here's the deal.
several years ago my brother-in-law (who is also a reformed jw fader) helped us move back to oklahoma.
while we were taking apart furniture prior to the move we were using my drill and 75 foot extension cord.
