  I have no issues with perfume per se. But, I understand and recognise this as an increasing ailment. How many years was it mentioned in KM before a CA. Ok I accept my previous post was harsh, but I was under the influence of 2/3 brandies, and I was having a silent rant about the emergence of a new breed of jw. Especially amongst the mid 20/30's. They have an air of arrogance about them. Maybe it's the increase of tv of shows like " the only way is essex, geordie wives and another one with Chelsea in the title". You might not be familiar with them. Popular amongst this age group in the UK. Present company excluded.

  Recently one such character who has no life experiences caused me to bury my head in my hands with embarrassment. My son-in-law, who is a 3x vet of the Afghan conflict asked him a question about cave paintings found in France believed to pre-date the WBTS's teachings regarding human history. His answer " lies, Satan's lies" I'm like wtf!.

  They would all fit on the isle of Wight?

  i remember once asking how the planet could possibly accommodate all the people who have ever lived?

  after the resurrection i mean.

  the answer i was told is that the gb had calculated that all the people who have ever lived could all fit on to the isle of wight?!.

  Petra your correct about point 2 on my post. I've realised what I've done and can't seem to edit. Can't find a source for born/died up to 1987. The other figures are from the interweb.

  purrpurr - When I was coming along in the mid-eighties It was put to me this way:

  1. World pop in 1987 could fit shoulder to shoulder on the Isle of Wight. It was just over 5 billion at the time.

  2. The amount of people who'd ever lived & died up to 1987 could fit shoulder to shoulder on Madagascar. The

  total - 108 billion ( 2 separate sources).

  I've never given it any thought till your post.

  hi... i am new and after nearly 20 years after being disassociated at 15 i would like to make contact with others who have similar difficulties.

  my mother was disfellowshipped shortly after my rebellion and had all ties with both her mother and brother cut and that remains the case.. just really hacked off with not being able to put things in the proper place in my life after all these years.

  for the record i don't know if i believe in god but am searching for some peace as i seem to self destruct on a regular basis.. any ideas anyone?.
