Another Memorial Post -- with question
by robhic ini have a friend (jw) who has severe multiple sclerosis so bad that she is essentially confined to a bed.
now, she has one of those electric "chrstopher reeves-looking" wheelchairs but requires someone (usually her sons or brother -- not jw) to physically pick her up and put her in it.. she hasn't been to a memorial in a couple of years, since her condition got so bad.
she told me the other night that some of the congregation are gonna bring her to the one this wednesday the 12th.

Website for the Unbelievers
by robhic inthis is humorous but will very likely be taken badly by those with any religious fervor.
being this close to easter i thought it appropriate: http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/jesus.php .
anyone offended by blasphemy stay away!

I want to say...
by robhic ini have been reading this forum for a couple of years now and i know this point has been made before but i truly think it needs to be repeated.
i am not, nor ever was, a jw and only arrived here to acquaint myself with "jw-ism" because a friend had joined up.
i needed to study up on stuff so i'd be prepared to (try to) understand where she was coming from with all her new oddball dogmas.

Adam & Eve were ...... ALIENS!!
by robhic ini was spending my big new year's eve watching a twilight zone marathon last night on the sci-fi channel and one of the episodes was especially interesting.
it starts with an astronaut crashing on a (seemingly) deserted planet.
he gets in radio contact with his home base and is informed that they are about to have a global nuclear war and can't come to save him.

Interesting Book (Sorry if this is a double-post)
by robhic ini just bought this book -- "the end of faith" by sam harris -- and found myself agreeing with almost every paragraph.
it is about religion as a bad thing -- "religion, terror, and the future of reason" -- and would probably be more for the atheists than anyone still involved in a religion but it does make some good points.
it is about all religions, not jw but it includes all religions in its sights.
