Jehovah will "bring to ruin those ruining the earth"
by teel inrevelations 11:18. this was a stumbling block for me (shame on me eh).
when we were studying the revelations book, the elder took his time to elaborate on how wicked this world is, and went on and on about the ecological disasters our world is facing, and how those wicked people only care about the money while they destroy the earth.. now, although i live in a middle-road developing country (romania), the people here by no means are ecological friendly.
those wicked people who are destroying the earth, are not some special class of people isolated in their ivory tower with elaborate plans to harm any living, but it is us.

Deleting private records
by teel ini just had a weird thought.
in my country there's a law (i think some similar exists in most countries) that any organization, society, entity can only keep record of private nature about a person / entity if he/she/it gives its explicit consent to do so, and that consent can be revoked at any time by the person.
so whenever i participate in a product related raffle for example, there is always a legalese text asking whether i give my consent that the data given by me to be stored by the company and used for further promotional offers - agreeing is not necessary for the participation in the raffle.

Debator, or any JW apologists, please give me your oppinion re: mind control
by teel ini happened to surf on the "cult checklist" page on wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/cult_checklist where i found the well-known robert lifton's list, with small explanations in parenthesis.
please explain what do you think which of these doesn't apply to jw's and why.
or alternatively, if it all fits, why do you think it's still fine?

"Spiritual conversation"? What is that?
by teel inyou surely remember that there were numerous exhortations to talk about spiritual things, especially in kh.
i never quite understood what that's supposed to mean.
(which is probably why i talked so little in the kh i guess).

Anything new re: copyright?
by teel ini am mostly interrested about countries where the copyright was not really enforced for jws so far - i mean here in romania as long as i was a jw we didn't really got any 'advice' about copying software and such, so everyone was pirating.
however in the last few months i have met several jws (technically i am still a jw, so they talk to me) who were looking to buy software.
since i work in a related field, they kept asking my advice.

Feeling that God will smite you down if you look at babes with no clothes? Try 'bubbling'!
by teel incheck out this thread, i laughed so hard.
the thread creator is probably not really mormon, still, i can imagine some religious folks to actually accept this technique.. http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=127185813.
