Pyramid Scheme,
This prize-act's real name is indeed Ray Comfort, that I know for a fact.
He hails originally from Christchurch, New Zealand, and is evidence that the religious lunatic fringe element is not limited to the JWs!

What did you do with your books?
by mamamo ini was in an used bookstore this weekend and saw a new world translation and some other society publications.
this made me think, what did others do with their books?
i gave mine to my mother, 22 years ago.

It gave me intense satisfaction to dispose of all of mine with a box of matches, and a few litres of kerosene!

jgnat,
When you list the GDP of the "Wealthy and Internet Savvy" group of countries, presumably you are referring to the average , andper capita GDP of that group? According to the most recent estimates, Ukraine's per capita GDP for the year 2011 was USD$7200 - considerably different from the figure of $36 396 that you quote (unless their economy grew by some unbelievable amount in the last 12 months!)

Born in, Convert or 1975er?
by Think About It indoes a person's involvement in the jw religion usually fall into one of these 3 categories?.
a) born in.
b) convert.
-
-
Bungi Bill
None of those three categories describes my background.
I would class myself as "raised in" rather than "born in", given that my parents weren't JWs when I was born. In fact, they never did become JWs: - I was introduced to it at eleven years of age, by a grandmother who had commenced a "Bible Study" with the witnesses several years before.
Furthermore, the term "convert" is hardly relevant in my case, as I was not a church member prior to my involvement with the witnesses.
Also, my grandmother began "studying" with the JWs about the same time as the All Scriptures Inspired book was released, which specifically warned against any speculation regarding the 6000th anniversary of human creation. I don't therefore class myself as a 1975er, either.
Sorry to disagree!
Bill.

7:30 ESDT on 22 December down in this part of the world, and everything so far looks much the same as it did yesterday.
So much so, that I might even take a peek outside the bomb shelter that we built in anticipation of this event!

This side of the International Dateline, nothing much has changed (yet!) that I can see:
- and we are already now well into the morning of Saturday, 22 December.
I am writing this, of course, from deep down inside the bomb shelter that we built just in case the Mayans had it right!
