Jehovah's Witnesses and their hypocritical entertainment choices.
by Scooby-Doo inthe couple that i studied with were major hypocrites when it came to their entertainment choices.
i remember the first time i was invited to their house for dinner, this was the first time that we just hung out socially, and they were playing music.
a song came on sung by a girl group that liked to pretend they were bisexuals (or lesbians, whatever) and i thought 'hey, maybe these witnesses are pretty relaxed and cool after all'.. boy was i wrong.

Am I the only one who felt sorry for adam and eve?
by Joliette inthe witnesses always blame everything on adam and eve (besides satan).

TV's best Series-ending episodes
by Nickolas inand now for something a little lighter.. i enjoy well made movies and television series, especially when they push the envelope, do something different.
there are currently two tv series i'm following closely (dexter and breaking bad), both of which have great promise for spectacular endings.. here are my biased rankings for a few television series that actually wrapped up with a final episode (out of 10).
m*a*s*h, "goodbye, farewell and amen" - february 28, 1983, after eleven seasons - 7/10 (series went on too long, got stale, ending was overdue).

Why did Jehovah preach the Good News to dead people?
by moshe init's one of those , aha!, moments that hits you right after you leave the kh.
if jehovah picked the wt society back in 1919 as his one true christian congregation and then asigned them and only the international bible students the big work of preaching the king and kingdom, at those famous,.
,uh-hum, everyone who heard the life saving message from rutherford's gang was going to be dead in a few years- everyone was going to the grave, not straight to the new system of things.

The Gentile Times Reconsidered
by Spade indisproving the date 1914 as a significant year in bible prophecy is of great importance to some (e.g.
carl o. jonsson).
along with the meticulous details of bible and secular chronology, broadening one's horizons when assessing exactly what this date represents when compared against the 6000 years of human history likewise has merit.

You too can live like the Judge
by TD infor only $2.99 you can own a yellow 1930's cadillac cabriolet, the envy of every rich playboy in hollywood at the time:.
of course at 1/64 scale, this one's a little small.
if you want something with a little more substance, i guess you're going to have to wrangle control of an entire religion and convince people to throw money at you....
