Why is it everytime I turn around I am supposed to be paranoid?
by Schism ini know i know, i have too many worries...this is another one of them.. first, i was raised a jw and was told that we were about to go through the great tribulation, a time when men with guns would come to the house and force us out and cut off my 5 year old fingers for not saying the pledge of alleigance to the flag?
and then to be beaten to death with hammers for being a jw?
i grow up, and off and on for every little thing that happens, my jw family reminds me that any day now i could be tortured and killed.

Does anyone play the drums?
by Schism inwhile we are on the subject of singing and piano lessons, i figured i'd ask this question.. i play guitar (some piano), and sing, and i am desperately wanting to have and play the drums.
it's been on my mind for quite a while now, and it's almost like when i was 12 and had the "guitar fever" and i wouldn't shut up about it until my dad would get me one.
i'm starting to talk about drums every day.

Does anyone know about real estate (mom? dad?)
by Schism inyeah, i won't ask my real life parents this, so i am turning to my jwd parents for help, lol.. i have just caught wind that a 2 week long class will be opening up on a nearby campus.
once the class is over, the students will then be able to take a state test and get a realtor's license.
the course costs $700.. ok, so i need to get a job, otherwise we are going to starve to death.

August 15, 2006 "Do You Remember" Causes More ???s
by Schism inboredom got the best of me, and i took a glance at the "do you remember?
" on pg 30 of aug 15th watchtower 2006.. the question: "under the law, why did certain natural sexual functions make a person "unclean"?".
the answer: "the laws concerning uncleanness ascribed to seminal emissions, menstruation, and childbirth fostered good hygiene and a healthy lifestyle, stressed the sanctity of blood, and showed the need for atonement of sins.".

2006 Our planet's health checkup
by Schism indid anyone else watch this on national geographic last night?
it was a program with a bunch of experts recapping the good and the bad on earth this past year.. the bad news: there are too many humans, we are filthy, it's still getting hotter, we just can't learn to stop killing so many animals wastefully, polar bears are running out of food fast, china can't get enough shark fin soup, china is making more pollution now than ever, china needs a wake-up call about eating so many sharks and how it will destroy the ecosystem.. the good news: it can still be fixed, thousands of acres in different countries became national parks to preserve wildlife and forests, africa has become heavyhanded in their fight against poachers, chinese sports stars are swearing off shark fin soup to try to persuade others to follow, 70% of people (i don't know which people.
i'm guessing all of them) want to be more proactive about going green, and big comanies realise now that they will make more money by appealing to the public as being eco-friendly.
