New MS Windows messages

by PopeOfEruke in

in japan, the impersonal and unhelpful microsoft error messages have been replaced with haiku poetry messages.

haiku poetry has strict construction rules.. each poem has only 17 syllables; 5 syllables in the first, 7 in the second, 5 in the third.. they are used to communicate a timeless message, often achieving a wistful,yearning and powerful insight through extreme brevity.

here are 16 actual error messages from japan.. your file was so big.. it might be very useful.. but now it is gone.. the web site you seek.

Here are 16 actual error messages from Japan.

Your file was so big.
It might be very useful.
But now it is gone.

The Web site you seek
Cannot be located, but
Countless more exist.

Chaos reigns within.
Reflect, repent, and reboot.
Order shall return.

Program aborting:
Close all that you have worked on.
You ask far too much.

Windows NT crashed.
I am the Blue Screen of Death.
No one hears your screams.

Yesterday it worked.
Today it is not working.
Windows is like that.

First snow, then silence.
This thousand-dollar screen dies
So beautifully.

With searching comes loss
And the presence of absence:
"My Novel" not found.

The Tao that is seen
Is not the true Tao-until
You bring fresh toner.

Stay the patient course.
Of little worth is your ire.
The network is down.

A crash reduces
Your expensive computer
To a simple stone.

Three things are certain:
Death, taxes and lost data.
Guess which has occurred.

You step in the stream,
But the water has moved on.
This page is not here.

Out of memory.
We wish to hold the whole sky,
But we never will.

Having been erased,
The document you're seeking
Must now be retyped.

Serious error.
All shortcuts have disappeared.
Screen. Mind. Both are blank.

Isn't that better than "Your computer has performed an illegal operation?"

CO admits that evolution is true!

by PopeOfEruke in

i was having an argument, uhh, i mean discussion with my brother (elder and ex-co).

about all the changes in jw's teaching over the years.

the point i was.

PopeOfEruke

Bang,

you said

"Jehovah still approved their worship"
How do you figure that?

sorry, I meant to imply in their own mind, they think they had Jehovahs blessing. I was meaning it from their own perspective.

PopeOfEruke

I was having an argument, uhh, I mean discussion with my brother (Elder and ex-CO)
about all the changes in JW's teaching over the years. The point I was
trying to make was that it doesn't matter what the JW's teach because
it seems God accepts their worship anyway.

For example, when the JW's all believed that the generation of 1914
would not pass away before Armegeddon, they were all believing
in a falsehood. The GB got it wrong. But Jehovah still approved their
worship. Then when the new light comes out, the
new belief is now the "truth", it replaces the old belief,
and God STILL approves their worship.

So according to this belief, Gods approval on the JW religion is totally
independent of their current teachings. Jehovah approves them when they are
wrong, and when they are right.

My argument to him: "then why bother making an effort to study or read
the WT? Whether its right or wrong, you're OK!. Whats the point in study?"

My brothers response was that as humans we are unable to get ALL the truth
in one lump. Therefore Jehovah reveals the truth in small incremental changes
over a long period of time. And the small changes eventually will lead to
the full truth...

I thought "Hang on, small changes over a long period of time....??"

I said "You just described evolution....so Jehovah uses evolution
to build his organisation????"

And my brother said, "Well, YES, IT IS EVOLUTION!!!"

So afterwards I thought, If God uses the principles of evolution
with his spritual creation, obviously it means that evolution is an
invention of Jehovah and obviously he used it in the physical creation
as well.

SO dear JW's reading this, you are all evolutionists.

HOW DOES IT FEEL???????????????????

Eggs

by larc in

jw
friends

life here in our community has been tough lately, so i thought i would put up some fluff.

my question to you is: what is your favorite way to eat eggs?

now, my preference is hard boiled eggs in a salad, an egg salid sandwich, and the royalty of all egg meals - eggs benedict.

PopeOfEruke

Man to woman in bar "How do you like your eggs in the morning?"

Woman "Unfertilized...."

1975---- DID IT REALLY BOTHER YOU?

by minimus in

jw
friends

on the net you see many talk about 1975 and how it affected so many.

obviously, some left the organization when nothing happened in 1975. were you personally affected by 1975?

has the fixing of dates been a major reason for your disappointment with the witnesses?

PopeOfEruke

Sorry JW Ben but it don't work like that. If you support an organisation that is FULL of corruption and nefariousness, and you KNOW what the leadership is doing is wrong, then YOU share the blame.

If they have a Nuremburg trial for JW's, I afraid you will be judged along with the leaders, just like the Nazi supporters who got HANGED! "Oh but I was only following orders Judge!! Its not my fault!!'

You have 2 choices, stay and share the bloodguilt, or get out. There ain't no middle ground.
