Hey, since I'm imortal, I could wait for another civilisation to grow somewhere else and re-introduce the Speccy! he he he, just call me Clive :) Microdrives anyone? Only a 6 month wait :)
im always good, cos it wont be long before santa will be making his list and checking it twice.
I'm not keen on people knocking on my door wanting me to convert or whatever, if i wanted to do that i'll go find a church. But for someone to knock on your door with the 'the world is gonna end' thats very bad
Saying that i still remember in the early 90's once when some jehovas came round my folks house when i lived there. The two girls he was with were simply stunning. I was tempted to join then !
ha ha, the classic honey trap.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eschatology_of_Jehovah%27s_Witnesses
The fact that they've got it wrong so many times doesn't exactly inspire me with confidence this time around either.
Oh well, just about time for another cup of tea.
Flippin worked. Nearly 25 years on and i still remember that day. Parents were away on holiday, i had a huge hangover, mates staying in my folks house. Opened up the door (frickin 9am) ready to have a right go at whoever it was knocking at that time and these two gorgeous, i mean gorgeous girls were there with this typical jehova witnesses bloke.
I looked a complete state and probably was dribbling whilst i was looking at them as i was still half drunk, it was like a miracle ! I nearly was converted that second.
My ma then told him to leave or she'd phone the coppers (now that I think back it' probably just as well she didn't cos' she probably would have got took away instead of him :D).
Hare Krishnas on the other hand are no bother, they can take no for an answer, and they're usually polite and don't try and tell you that "You must shave you head apart from 1 little jedi braid, and dance down the main street in the city center wearing nothing but a curtain and chanting indecipherable mantras". So this is why Krishnas don't bother me (of course it would be better if they wouldn't knock on your door at all).
When my house was still a wreck, I was alone one morning doing some random piece of joinery. At the time, from the outside, the house looked as it had for years - i.e. just a normal house with people living in it, because we hadn't started working on the outside yet.
Quickest Jehovah's Witness meeting I've had. I opened the door (to a scene of destruction), myself covered in dirt, holding a hammer and the piece of wood I'd just been sawing. They offered me a leaflet and hastily departed.
My dad had a good one. They came to his door once.
"Do you want to be saved?" they asked.
"No." he replied.
They flapped a bit. I don't think they had anything in their script for someone who just says "no" to that question.
STOP RIGHT THERE??? HOW WAS I NOT TOLD THIS???
Anyway (as I reach for my coat), I'm lucky. I live in a flat that's above a shop (along with about another 19 flats - lovely open space on the flat roof), and the only way in is by someone buzzing them in or having the security dongle, so they can't get me! MWAHAHAHAHA!
the religious loonies come and knock on the door and Bernard is so lonely and bored that he invites them in, and tries to engage them in conversation about the bible. They're totally stumped and don't know what to say, cause they've never got past the door slamming phase before :lol:
We had a visit from them last week just as Emma was coming back from school - we had to threaten them with the police when we caught them trying to preach to her that her parents were sinners and that's why she has no legs. (This was after we told them we weren't intrested in joining for the upteenth time)
a bloke i once met said he did that for a laugh, brought them in listened to their spiel gave them tea etc. they came back everyday for two weeks hounding him.
funny though how they only seems to be christians who do it. (apart fom cults) no one has ever tried to convert me to judism, and the 3 or 4 times i've visited a mosque i haven't got so much as a leaflet inviting me to join.
christianity: the slag of modern religion.
I was thinking (and rather cruely) yes, your end of the system maybe comming very soon but (with a little luck ) not mine.
I think they were after some last minute redemption from a life of sin and debauchery. :lol:
They have given me two lovely pamphlets to read "The Watch Tower" and "Awake". I'm sure the Pasty could find all all sorts of hidden meanings in there.
Awake's lead story is about how the love of money and posessions is harmfull to ourselves and our children. There is a whole section about ungreatfull spoild teenagers who dont appreciate what they have.
Andrew.
So the editor is happy to let millions of children die because they need blood, but when its one of his, the rules change?
It just goes to show that they don't follow a religion, they follow a magazine editor.
*me gets ideas*
You're all going to die unless you buy ZX Shed! Only sinners download the pdf's!
[edit] And none of that following false religions - ZXF is the devil! [/edit]
is that true or just a TV thing?
i thought you could refuse to give a sample if asked, of course it doesn't look good for your case if you do.
Great point by Lee, theyre just total hypocrites. I'm not religious myself but the short period when i did look at religion i was disgusted with all the hypocrites in religion. You have christians making out people should send money to them (US) and then living a lavish lifestyle by conning people. Roman catholics covering up all this kiddie fiddler business, very bad. Cant stand any of it
Obviously they believe in a nasty, conniving vindictive god if they think that is true. Why would a kind god take a child's legs because of the actions of her parents? Perhaps their god is also the devil!
1. Why didn't the world end in 1975 like they predicted?
2. Ditto for 1914, 1915, 1920 & 1925.
3. Given that they got those dates wrong, why should you believe them when they still say the apocalypse is imminent?
4. Given that they believe that Jesus returned to Earth in 1914, how do they know you're not him?
5. Given that even meat which has been drained still contains traces of blood, how come they're not all vegetarians?
6. What happens to the 6 million or so JWs that can't go to heaven as there's only room for 144,000 there?
7. If the bible should be interpreted literally, is it still OK to kill adulterers, own slaves, etc. given the appropriate passages in Exodus?
That should keep them busy for a while. :)
What is does not say is of that 28,578,000 copies all but a few are actually read or even looked at for more than a moment.
It's religious spam!!
What a waste of tree's!! But I dont suppose they care about the environment, after all according to them the worlds going to end soon anyway.
Andrew.
Prime example of why I am an athiest.
Well you'd know. But then I suppose you only go as far as the gates, you don't get to see what goes on inside. :lol:
You know - that's actually used as a legitimate reason by some of the fundies over here as to why it's okay to rape the environment...
Andrew
Its okay to discuss religion when we slate it and have jokes, its not okay to discuss religion when people actually want to talk about the 'positives' of it ! ;)
I don't think it IS ok to discuss religion on these forums.
However, when people use children as a lever to force an opinion, I DO have an opinion on that and am allowed to air it, unless we all of a sudden live in a dictatorship. Assuming it has offended you, I apologise. However, I simply said I'm an athiest - as such, discussing religion would be a waste of time for me, since I do not need to defend any opinions or see the need to preach and force opinions on other people.
