A good case can be made for lying to a Judicial Committee, seeing as how they are unbiblical and all. Theocratic warfare against Enemies of scripture.

I make my avatars and designs to fit with any background. I totally despise the angelfire/myspace/website from hell concept of noisy clashing images.

Touch This
by bite me ini am sitting here trying to figure this all out.
i know this is a subject that has probably been discussed before in one way or another.
however, there is a slight touch on it as my mind is going a million miles a second.

I have explored this with my study conductor. Watchtower Jesus (I do not dignify their Jesus, Rightwing Jesus or any other Jesii by recognizing them to be the same person as Bible Jesus) was apparently intent on playing tricks on people to fool them into thinking he had a physical body, even though Jehovah vaporized it somehow. (with antimatter, perhaps?)
Then 18 centuries later Jehovah sent Watchtower Jesus to tell some invisible spirit beings that the FDS was channeling that all the materializations were just a Heavenly Jest and he was really a ghost the whole time, a truly Holy Ghost.
My study conductor looks at me like I am from another planet when I say things like this, but I point out I would have never thought this up from reading the Bible, it was at the helpful spiritual banquet that the FDS laid out that I swallowed this story. -

"Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses"...What is this???
by nomoreguilt ini was reading a reply post to the thread"noah and high altitude".

That is under the American law, you are not required to incorporate. :-)
Other countries and their laws may vary.
In practice, it is a prudent business strategy to form a corporation when more than an individual is operating an organization.
Despite WT claims, there is no scriptural requirement to incorporate. -

"Such entities or corporations are necessary to conform to local and national laws, as required by God’s Word. (Rom. 13:1)"
FAIL!
Forming a corporation is not a legal requirement for any religious or business enterprise. It is a partnership with a state for the purpose of obtaining privileges, including tax breaks and protection from liability for wrongdoing.
The so called Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses is likely a contrivance to protect other Watchtower assets from lawsuits against a congregation. You might question the organization being directed by spirits, but never doubt it is directed by lawyers.

When was Alaska added to US for Watchtower statistics?
by yesidid inin another thread we were reminded that the brooklyn head counters had recently added.
alaska to the us, instead on having its statistics separate in the yearbook.. could anyone tell us when this happened.
just wondering if this was the reason for the.

How coincidental, I was showing the Proclaimers book to the study conductor, and it has lots of pages of various WT real estate. The Alaska pic was a tightly cropped front door. I laughed, because I have been there. Majestic place. Not many people. Maybe 600,000 in the whole state. It is huge so they are spread out a lot.
I figured a proportionate JW population, a few thousand, so the headquarters was perhaps a tiny storefront and they did not want to show the whole building so they cropped it. -

My nightmare about the future
by Layla33 ini had a nightmare last night that was pretty vivid and i just wanted to record it, in case it might actually happen.
i am not saying it will, but i have had dreams in the past that have actually happened, which kind of scared me, and i have tested my "abilities" and i am mildly clairvoyant.
actually, as i have meditated more, i have been able to clearly tap into my senses.

It's just a dream.
A dream can stage your inner thoughts and impressions in a dramatic setting.
It is likely you sense that America is being strip mined and looted by interests that are not our friends. Some of their lackeys hold public office.
So in your dream you staged it as the "other" being Chinese. If you think of it in a figurative sense then it is very perceptive of you to see that. -
