FSM: Austrian authorities accept colander as religious headgear
by J. Hofer inhttp://translate.google.at/translate?js=n&prev=_t&hl=de&ie=utf-8&layout=2&eotf=1&sl=de&tl=en&u=http%3a%2f%2fderstandard.at%2f1308681039222%2foesterreichs-behoerden-nudelsieb-als-religioese-kopfbedeckung-in-fuehrerschein-genehmigt.
this is google-translated from german.... a "pastafarian" insisted in having his license picture shot with a colander on his head.
it's allowed (for muslims for example) to have ones head covered for legal documents if it is a religious practise.

"it may delay! but it will not be late!!"
by highdose inso declared a jw to me recently.
it was the begining of the classic jw guilt trip.
it was the answer in responce to me pointing out that she had spent her whole life as a jw wasting it away, telling scores of people over the years that armardegon was coming soon, telling her children they wouldn't make it to school because the new system would be here before then, seeing them grow, graduate and have children of their own, still the years tick on with no promised armargedon and slaughter of billions in sight?.

Taking back re-defined words
by onefootout ini was trying to think of all the words that wts re-defines to mold the thinking of anyone who will listen.. truth, or the truth.. i am going to try to use the word 'truth' in conversation in it's proper context, describing things that are actual truisms to try to get people to view the word not as describing the religion they belong to, but to things that are actually true.
emphasize that actual truisms never change.. generation.. this one takes some sublty because it has been latched onto by us doubters and could raise the forcefields.
example: so many of the people our parents or grandparents age of the 'greatest generation' that experienced ww2 have died.
