I think Plymouth Brethren must come quite high up the list.

And here is their version of JWD: http://peebs.net/
They even have their own slang! peeb = dub
thought it might be interesting to put a perspective on things.
while many here have had terrible experiences at the hands of jw's and the wtbts, are there religions that you know of which are any worse?
for example, jw's might disfellowship a member who became known as a thief, but they don't chop off your hand.

i am not sure how many of you folks know about canadian, singer / songwriter: jeff healey.. he's one of the most talented persons to come out of toronto and make it on the international stage.. we lost a good one yesterday.

What sad news. I saw Jeff Healey play here in the UK in the mid '90s. A truly talented musician. It is a such a shame that cancer has robbed another family of a son, husband and father.
here's an excerpt from a news article posted today:.
http://www.nbc11.com/news/15427504/detail.html.
the petaluma woman who won last week's super lotto plus jackpot isn't completely sure what she and her family will do with the $80 million prize.. "we dont want to get carried away, because were humble people, but im taking all my family out to dinner," said the woman, who chooses to remain anonymous.
There are lots of reasons why a lottery winner would choose to remain anonymous. Membership of a religious group that bans gambling (JWs aren't the only ones) is way down the list. In the real world, JWs aren't quite as important as they (and some exJWs) think they are.
a friend of mine sent me the following... gave me a laugh...and a few surprises.
in the 1400's a law was set forth in england that a man was allowed to beat his wife with a stick no thicker than his thumb.
hence we have 'the rule of thumb' .
I hope you soon feel better coffee_black.
Here's one for you:
Porkchops take more calories to chew and digest than they contain, so you actually burn more calories than you gain; and they contain more Vitamin C than lemons!
I hope that made you smile a little.
who ever said "white people haven't got any soul?
" well, he/she must not have heard humble pie with steve mariott at the front.

My JW ex-husband was in the same class as Rick Astley at high school. Claim to fame!!
lived through one of the biggest earthquakes in 25 years last night.
5.2 on the rickter scale.
anyone else feel it?.
That is what I like about England. When something big happens, it is always f#ck all to worry about….
LOL! That is so true!
Anyway, I missed all the fun. All I felt at 1am was my two year old smiting me with his teddy.

Many years ago in Scotland , a new game was invented. It was ruled 'Gentlemen Only...Ladies Forbidden'...and thus the word GOLF entered into the English language.
Or not.

as i browse guys profiles on online dating sites, i occasionally run across references to "needy women" eg.
"needy women stay away".
at what point does a chick become needy?
It means "when I get bored, disappear!"
