What I Want For Christmas
by starfish422 inrobert ingersoll, 1833-1899: if i had the power to produce exactly what i want for next christmas, i would have all the kings and emperors resign and allow the people to govern themselves.. i would have all the nobility crop their titles and give their lands back to the people.
i would have the pope throw away his tiara, take off his sacred vestments, and admit that he is not acting for god - is not infallible - but is just an ordinary italian.
i would have all the cardinals, archbishops, bishops, priests and clergymen admit that they know nothing about theology, nothing about hell or heaven, nothing about the destiny of the human race, nothing about devils or ghosts, gods or angels.

When We Two Parted
by starfish422 inwhen we two parted in silence and tears, half broken-hearted to sever the years,.
pale grew thy cheek, and cold; colder thy kiss.
truly that hour foretold sorrow to this.. .

which issues...
by starfish422 inwithout having read all the responses, i'm going to post my own thoughts:.
1) i think people would be very interested to know about the door-to-door records which the j-dubs keep on them; as you mentioned in the text of your proposed flyer, expat.
2) i was discussing this with a friend yesterday (who has never been associated with the j-dubs) and we were talking about the invasive spirit of the entire organization; specifically, their views on "acceptable" sexual relations between a husband and wife...i told my friend that (last i read) oral sex was a disfellowshipping offence, and he said, "how would they monitor something like that?!
