The Borg is like a termite mount
by OlderTom inever noticed how the borg is like a termite mount?.
you got your worker termites slaving away for the good of the colony.. the only one with any importance is the queen.
(the board of directors).

To YoungerTom
by OlderTom inhi tom.
just read the dicussion created/started by your earlier post.. i can see you are going to fit right in.. isn't it refreshing to have a stimulating and lively discussion without any threat of disfellowshipping for disagreeing with the official teachings of the borg.
(the queen in brookly).

The eventuality of man is the same as animals
by OlderTom inwas it ezicle who said the eventuality of man is the same as for the animal, as one dies so does the other.
or something like that.. man has to die because he sinned, that's the price one has to pay.
what sins have animals committed?

Does the Watchtower break up famelies?
by OlderTom inmy word it does.. when i started studying with the witlesses all of my family and inlaws deserted me for following a stupit cult.
my wife divorced me and my children won't talk to me.. that's ok because according to jdubs that proves it's the truth.. as i progressed in "the truth(tm)" all my friends started to abandon me because i was always going to those booring meetings.. when i found someone i liked in "the truth" and started associating with her, some of my witness friends tried to break up the friendship.. ie break up another family before it even starts.. after i married her without getting the elder permission, some of my jdub friends tried to df me, to show how much they loved me.. when they failed to df me some of my witless friends decided to shun me anyway even though the elders pronounced us no guilty.. i should have sued the bastards for slander.
today i'd just give him (the instigator) a good hiding.

Would you slam the door in his face?
by OlderTom inif a man knocked on your door and introduced himself as jesus christ son of jehovah, would you ask him in and feed him or would you slam the door in his face and call the cops?.
if your daughter came home pregnant and claimed it was an imaculate conception, would you believe her?.
why do you believe in the other virgin birth?.

Would keep going to the boring meetings?
by OlderTom inif the society said tomorrow.. " sorry folks we made a mistake there is going to be no new system at the end of life you just die and go to your grave and that's it.
" would you keep going to those booring meetings or would you live life to the full?.

When did Jehovah change his mind
by OlderTom inin the old testament (hebrew scriptures for jdubs) solomon, david abraham and many others who jehovah considered as friends and he used them for various jobs and he blessed them.. now these friends of jehovah had many wifes and also conubines, some even had children with these and jehovah approved.. jesus comes along and he is gods son and according to jdubs in subjection to god the father, equal to god the father for other christians.. what gives jesus the right to overrule his father and say anyone who divorces exept for reasons of adultry and marries another is a fornicator and will get dfed?.
jdubs go a bit further and allow divorce if the ex is likely to endager a jdubs spirituality but the consider remarrieng the crime.. q can jesus overrule his father ?
q why, when did god change his mind?
