**jsgoddess** , you’re riding on the coat-tails of someone far better at preparing a cogent argument. You’re the remora here, keep the peanut gallery commentary to a minimum if you don’t mind.

At the very least, proofread your posts. That makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

Are you reading them, or simply assuming the content based on a few choice keywords here and there?

Taking advice from you is like asking John Boehner how to get a realistic looking spray tan.

But the coattails are nice and velvety. I likes 'em.

\<snipped by me\>

I’ll say it - you’re (attempting to) create a pretty positive picture, and then claiming its true - its disingenuous at best, and ignorant at worst.

Your organization is full of deceit and hatred - you yourself attempt to hide this fact by saying ‘its them, not me’ or ‘we’re only human’ and all the other crap you spew.

If ‘satan’ is ruling this world, it is thru organizations such as yours - there are obvious lies in your publications - yet you espouse them as truths - you have lied on these boards in an attempt to ‘dodge’ when the facts are in front of you.

If Satan is the father of the lie - one of his bitches is the Watchtower.

I’m not going to say that jsgoddess is much smarter than the OP, but if they were knives in a drawer, she’d be a chef’s knife and the OP would be a spoon.

What the hell is going on here?

I mean, I can see the poster with the 2013 join date that is being pitted, but that poster isn’t the one talking complete rubbish. What gives?

(Just kidding, I don’t really care what gives, if I did I would have read more than two lines of the OP)

Well if there was a point to be made, and the recipient of the point says “huh?” - maybe try restating it, or accept that it wasn’t very important to begin with.

I don’t understand what she said. The sentence seemed to lack a few important pronouns or something.

You clearly have a reading comprehension problem - probably why you fit so well into the org since they spell it all out for you and don’t encourage reading other materials.

Next thing you know, someone will bring a fiddle to a spoon fight and then all of a sudden you have bluegrass.

Maybe you’re not used to reading something without someone to tell you what it means.

yeah - he needed to underline/highlight it and then read the question at the bottom that refers back to it to understand it.

Or maybe it needed a scriptural cite at the end (1 Tim 3:11)

I’m wondering how much farther into elementary-school territory this will delve.

Do I appear to be the type of person for whom reading is difficult?

I was trying to coax a meaningful honest response out of **CLee** , but got more of the same prejudiced, incorrect, willfully ignorant drivel, with no acknowledgement of anything I said.

So, as I expected might likely happen, this thread went down into “pile-on” land.

Have fun with it. There’s nothing for me here, so I’ll be off to abduct your grandparents and murder your children. Cuz, that’s what we do you see.

Hit Great Debates and Witness to a discerning, critical audience. Show us what you have, or is your spiel only fit for the chronically lonely and gullible?
