WoMD ... so where are they?
by Simon innow, the war is over, the weapons were not used and of course have not been found.. how threatening could they be if they did not even use them when being invaded by a massive force (of the countries they hate)?!
perhaps, as many suspect, they didn't use them because they didn't have them?.
now we're being told that we'll have to be patient and give them time to find them.

Disco Sucks!
by professor indoes anyone remember how the society joined the "disco sucks" movement of the late 70's?
i remember reading in the mags about how disco was created by homos and that it has an "immoral beat" (whatever that means!
) it was also mentioned not to go see "saturday night fever" because someone gets a blowjob in the movie.. in our congregation, we had a special meeting about disco because people would request disco songs at our once-a-month jw skating party at the local skating rink.

Selective Banning
by Elsewhere ini hate to see people get banned or silenced - even the people who are causing trouble.
when it comes to regulations, i could almost be described as libertarian.
because of this i would like to make a proposal - instead of leaving the banning power in the hands of a central authority, i propose that banning be placed in the hands of the individual.

Going where the "Need is Great"
by OUTLAW inlets go back in time,back to the late 60`s early 70`s..armagedon is coming and the wbts wants it`s members to sell every thing they got and preach in areas where there are few or no dubs..where did the people you know go?..my parents packed up their belongings and went to..the friggin bible belt of b.c..lol!
a good wind storm would knock a few christians out of trees there were so many..a bloody church on every street corner,and every one of them had the truth..so why the bible belt?..there were`nt many dubs there at the time,but most importantly property was cheap.a smart dub could make a killing at real estate,and they did..more money than you could shake a dead donkey at,lol!....my bud`s dad also went where the need was great.the dumb-ass religion broke his family up,his wife being a none believer and all.so where did my buds anointed dad go?..hawaii,lol!
where else would you go to rough it out till armagedon?
