Indigenous Flora / Fauna / Witnesses
by Englishman inback in the 1800's, some smart fella decided that it would be nice to add the american grey squirrel to the uk's indigenous population of red squirrels.
the american grey decimated the uk red by booting it out of it's natural habitat, so that it can now only breed freely on a few off-shore places such as the isle of wight.. poor red squirrel: .
in the 1800's, some uk wise guy decided that it would be nice for the americans to enjoy the delights of our own flying, screeching rodent, the starling, and released 24 pairs in new york city.

The Bible Is Whatever You Want It to Be.
by Englishman ini don't read the bible very much.
i don't call god 'jehovah', either.. you know why, of course, both the bible and 'jehovah' make me think of the wtbts.
that, folks, is a very unpleasant memory, so if satan is living in brooklyn, he's succeeded in pushing me away from the good book.

Faith
by Jackyboy ini was a regular christian before a jehovah's witness person came knocking on my door.
i did not know what a jehovah's witness was when i met her.. she's a very nice person, and brings her 14 year old daughter everytime.
she says i should not watch tv, and should not listen to music, and should not play video games, because they will corrupt me, because they are what devil has created.. my friend told me that they are extremests and he is very worried about me being in contact with jehovah witness people (as you can see, i'm not too sure of how to address them either).

by ISP inever been called an apostate?
other such name or label?
well you should know why and how such names are used and why they are used purposefully by the wts.. awake june 22 ,2000 page 6. some people insult those who disagree with them by questioning character or motives instead of focusing on the facts.

God created monkeys in his image.
by ballistic indid you know that our dna is 96% identical to that of our nearest primates?.
does this mean god created monkeys 96% in his image?.
but seriously, this has a lot to say about evolution.... why would god create us based on the genes of monkeys, especially if, as the witnesses declare, we were designed to live forever and monkeys were not?.

RU British? No! I'm English!
by Englishman ingambler brought up an interesting point earlier re an english couple getting snotty because someone asked them if they were from australia.. it's a fact that guessing at someones accent is a risky business, especially if you get it wrong.
i had a canadian friend who was always being mistaken for an american, and boy did he ever get pissy about it.. same with new zealanders, i don't mix 'em up with aussie's because i have kiwi pals and am tuned into to the softer intonations.
my wife has a swiss friend who hates being mistaken for being from germany or austria and makes no bones about letting you know it.. i used to laugh at what i considered to be over-sensitivity, until someone suggested that i came from yorkshire.
