So I'm walking through town on my lunch break and someone placed a tract with me.
by Theocratic Sedition init wasn't a jw though.
in fact, i didn't even know what it was until i got back to the office.
last friday, i was in a hurry to get to the verizon store and didn't have time to chit-chat.

Is it hypocritical for JWs to sue over religious discrimination on the job, or school, etc.?
by Theocratic Sedition inat the meetings, in the literature, even the social enviroment mandated upon a born-in, it's constantly reinforced that "we're no part of the world.
" considering jesus and paul's example, they didn't instigate legal proceedings, but were forced to be the subject of such due to the opposition they recieved.
matter fact, jesus didn't even bother defending himself, while paul only defended himself based upon his roman citizenship and the rights afforded him, not to mention the importance he placed up spearheading missionary work.. that said, where's the scriptural precedence for litigation when a jw feels he/she's been treated unfairly on the job over matters like needing vacation time to attend a convention, or holiday participation?

Would you agree that when JW's say they have The Truth, really they just have "an artificial limb?"
by Theocratic Sedition ini was reading arthur schopenhauer and came across this gem as follows,.
"truth that has been merely learned adheres to us like an artificial limb, a false tooth, a waxen nose, or at best like one made out of anothers flesh; truth which is acquired by thinking for oneself is like a natural member: it alone really belongs to us.
here we touch upon the difference between the thinking man and the mere man of learning.

MSNBC review of the movie, "Flight" confuses Evangelicals for Jehovah's Witnesses. Gotta love it.
by Theocratic Sedition ini was trying to make up my mind what i was going to do this past afternoon when i remembered seeing the preview for flight yesterday while getting some lunch in a sports bar.
so i figured i'd check the reviews out first and they seemed generally favorable.
an alchoholic flight captain played by denzel washington, sounds good to me.
