  So a sixteen year old girl (legal age) who has been socialized into thinking that marriage to a far older man with multiple wives is just fine, will one day soon be perfectly legal. While some may see freedom of expression in an alternative lifestyle, others will see a deceived littel girl throwing away a bright future.

  Is this situation anyworse than the same one minus the multiple wives? Any girl that is socialized into throwing away a bright future, no matter how legal, is unfortunate.

  Hope that your recent marriage isn't the first of many! (kidding)

  edited to add: these topics - gay and polyganous marriage - really have been done to death on this board.

  Hi To Be

  You've already had a lot of good advice. I'd also recommend just not bothering to think about any of it for a while. Take 6 months off any self analysis. Armageddon won't be here tomorrow and old age won't catch you over the summer either. If your family have slacked off being Witnesses and you haven't been to a meeting for a year then switch the Witness static off.

  Try just being you. We're all here for you. You've got the rest of your life to answer those questions.

  over on the weekend poll thread, something interesting (to me!!!

  ) has come up, the matter of dubs serving on juries.

  check out the comments of blondie, mulan and myself on this thread: http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/71933/1.ashx.

  Well, the annual European war is over for another year

  yes, every year we do battle ... with song !

  while it's supposed to be 'the best song' that wins it has degenerated into farce a bit - for as long as anyone can rememeber: .

  greece and cyprus give each other top marks.

  While being thrilled at the leather, fur and whips from Ukraine I was most disappointed with Albania's entry. The preview video

  http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio2/eurovision/2004/contestants/index.shtml

  shows the most hilarious dancing I've seen at eurovison, involving what I can only describe as a pony trot across the stage. It was sadly changed for the final.

  The French stilt dancer was erm... a curiousity.

  sunday night..................it's on again!.

  every year my family keeps tradition and we watch hours of hilariously bad/not so bad european pop music.

  from remote places like estonia to malta and germany, it's on for young and old.. we usually invite fellow esc fans/friends and we consume good wine, watch the show and have a fun night.. abba launched into their career by winning eurovision in 1974 with 'waterloo'.. here is the web site.......................enjoy.

  on another tread this point came up.

  scotsman posted a comment about a certain poster being gay, and i do not know or care if this is true or not, and in conflict over the fear of dying at armageddon for this "sin".

  do any of you fear the big a because of your lifestyle?

  From time to time my mum asks how I will feel when Armageddon occurs. After telling her that it wont, I add that if the Witnesses are right about that then they're right about death and so I'd have nothing to fear. She doesn't like that sort of reasoning for some reason.
