i saw this comment on another thread, and felt it deserved some highlighting: "many americans don't care a whole lot about what is going on in other countries unless it affects them.

but this applies to people in most countries as well.

"out of site, out of mind" is a very human thing.

jan,

I did address what he said or tried to say. I explained his bullshit way of posting and his excessive American bashing.

Here's a clue for both of you. I am not in the CIA and neither is the majority of Americans. The majority of Americas did not give guns to drug lords or American hating
people like Kent and Bin Laden. Believe it or not, we do not hold daily votes on what the CIA should or should not do.

Do either one of you have control over your countries secret little government departments? Do either one of you take the blame for stupid ass things they may or may not do? I don't think Kent has killed a single whale but since he likes to group each and every American into a pile of blood thirsty gun toting morons I just thought I'd call him a whale killer.

Get a clue boys, not every American has control over what the government does, just as you two have no control over yours. So stop grouping all of us into one pile of idiots to fit your personal insecurities. I have done business through the years with many Europeans and in my opinion they are as arrogant as they accuse us of being.

Bashing people of any race, religion, creed or nationality is as stupid as stupid can get and shows complete insecurity in yourself and your own kind. I have just grown sick of Kent's continual attacks on Americans. I am not going to swap insults with him, I have more intelligent things to do in my life than play into his childish insecurities. That goes for all his little puppets also.

Norwegian Whaling Threatens Endangered Species
In the first week of May, almost 30 Norwegian whaling vessels set out for the annual hunt of Minke whales in the North Atlantic ocean.

On 17 January, the government of Norway announced that it would approve the export of whale meat and blubber under certain conditions. Hundreds of tons of minke whale products, often packed in cartons labeled in Japanese, are waiting in warehouses in Norway.

When whale meat is shipped from country to country, it is not only the whales that die. Whale meat is a high value commodity and international trade provides the cover for pirate whalers who catch all species regardless of how rare they are.

If Norway resumes export in minke whales, not only will it provide a cover for pirate whalers to hunt threatened whale species all over the world, but it will generate huge pressure from the whalers to be allowed to kill more whales so they can make more money. Norway's chief whaling scientist has suggested that the quota could be increased from 500 a year to 3,000 a year and the whalers are already demanding that they be allowed to hunt additional species.

Kent buddy, you completely misunderstood me. I gave you a complement before I said you were idiot, I call it the Kent complement/bash technique.

You see my bohemian boozecicle pal, I have been reading your posts for about six months now and I see this highly pseudo intellect pattern that has become quite apparent in all your posts. It's kind of like yoyo mentality. You toss a slight complement out then you yank it back in with your typical American bashing. Then if anyone says anything about it you get on your little soap box and jump up and down crying "you misunderstood me, you misunderstood me"!!!

Let me give you an example:
Kent has an exJW web site that really goes after the JW's so he must be pretty intelligent even though he is a bigoted booze drenched slob.
Now, you can come back at me and call me ignorant, arrogant and uniformed and then I can come back and say "you misunderstood me! I said you had an exJW web site, that's a good thing".

Unlike some who think you are exempt from having to practice common curtesy and a little compassion because you have a JW web site I try see you in a whole picture scenario. If someone doesn't agree with your half complement half insult way of trying to make a point you immediately revert to your school boy tantrum throwing and start calling everyone ignorant and uninformed. Well pal, I'm here to tell ya, you could sure pass for the official spokes person for the ignorant and uninformed.

Why don't you try and find a new punch line, the one you have been using for the past several months is getting a little old? But I think your a great guy and I wish I lived in Norway, even though they still kill the majority of whales on the planet. But I like Norway, it's great little insignificant country. The people are so smart, just ask them, they'll tell you so. They are the biggest contributors to world peace and they feed all the hungry nations and their army and navy keep the world safe from all the big bad nasty hump back whales swimming in the ocean. Thank you Norway, since you have been on the job not one single American has been killed by a hump back whale in over twenty years!

Why don't you say what you really mean without trying to hide behind a lame ass attempt to disguisee it with a worthless pseudo complement hidden in mid sentence? You don't like Americans, have the balls to admit it straight up, and BTW, most of us don't like you either.

Kent, you don't know shit about me or any other American so blow it out your web site pal.

Kent,

As usual your jealousy of Americans is showing like a pubescent boner. Your generalizations of our national intelligence level continues to make you look like the little boy that has to put others down to make yourself look good. What a shame, someone like yourself who has shown both a high level of intelligence and a low level of class might want to check out the transparency of your own walls before you start throwing stones.

Its easy to observe the faults of others when you yourself are invisible.

Conmgratualtions. Being that I work as a nurse, I'm very happy to hear that you've quit smoking.>>

Dear Dung,

Being that I am not working for the first time after thirty some odd years because of the fucked up economy I'm glad I quit smoking too. I find that if you take advantage of stress and add more stress to your existing stress the level of stress becomes so stressful that the original amount of stress that you were stressing about is diminished by the additional stress that overrides the original stress. You almost get to the point where you are in a euphoric level of stress that lifts you to a point of a stress overdose. It's kind of like snorting pure lime Kool-Aid, it's quite a rush.

The trick to quitting smoking is to go completely out of your mind. I, being a logical person, have taken advantage of my temporary state of uncertainty and have chosen to push the edge of the envelope. I have always said that when this or that happens in a positive note that I would quit smoking. I have promised my kids so this time I have to do it. So I decided instead of waiting for positive things to happen I'll just take advantage of a state of total shit and quit in the middle of it. So far it's working.

Now I know why Ozzy Osborne bit the heads off of chickens.

Think, I believe you, I really do. I knew once I left for a while everyone would start acting like a cute little furry animals from a Mother Goose story. Iv been wonderful, for the second time in my life I have touched the bottom of the pool, but I know if I keep my hopes up and put a smile on my face everything should start coming up roses. I love life's roller coaster, it builds character and makes me appreciate the simpler things in life, like breathing.

As far as trusting you, well,.... of course I do. I trust everyone, some just a little more then others. I just quit smoking after 17 years, I want to torture butterflies and use new born kittens for fire place logs.

How have you been?

How do you deal with these Witness people?

please forgive my language in this post but i'm at my wits end and pissed as hell.

my name is kevin and my partner who was a poster on this board was jonjonsimons.

today jons dad showed up at our house.

Kevin,

Maybe this will help you understand a little. The JW mindset is built around more of "what" a person is as opposed to "who" a person is.
To them you are a gay man who did sinful things with their son. That is all they see, that is all they want to understand. The also looked at Jon that way, "what" he was is, gay, sinful, disobedient, exJW, and their son, in that order. They do not care about "who" Jon was as you and most of us on the board do but more of "what" Jon was. The whole religion sees other people as "what's" and not "who's". They do not have the mental freedom to understand the concept of "who." You can tell them many of the wonderful things Jon has said and done and it will not effect them at all. The "what" of Jon is a wall they will never be able to look over. That is the reason they come for Jon's things, it is "what" he owned they are interested in. It is "what" they can poses of his and "what" they feel defaults back to them because of "what" they are in relation to his life.

In the JW existence it is, and always will be the "what" when it comes to how they view other people. "What" position does someone have in the local congregation. "What" have they done to show "what" kind of JW they are. "What" have they done that is good, "what" have they done that is bad. It's never "who" they are. Are they kind, thoughtful, caring, forgiving, loving, intelligent, funny or any other thing that describes "who" a person is, is not a question the often ask.

Jon's dad will never care "who" you are Kevin, he will only see the "what." Trying to show him or tell him anything beyond what he wants to see is futile. It is how they think, it is who they are. Even when it comes to their god, its "what" he is and "what" he will do. They care very little about who god is or could be, just as long as they have their "what's" in order.

My personal opinion of what you should do if Jon's dad shows up again, you should moon him! I think Jon would get a kick out of that.

Take care pal,

Dave

my name is kevin and i am jon's partner.

jon gave me his password a few weeks ago and asked me to post to the board if something happened to him.

as some of you know jon had been undergoing cancer treatment since the end of july.

Kevin,

Jon was a good man and cracked me up all the time. Yes, he told me about the "if you weren't straight" thing and I did take it as a complement. He knew it cracked me up. Jon and I did talk about his novel and his desire to write a screen play. I would be honored to have it Kevin.

Jon was very special and words on a discussion board cannot begin to explain the kindness he had for other people. I could say more but I have a hard time dealing with death. I am not one who express himself well at times like this.

Thank you so much for posting here Kevin, it means a lot to many people here.
