  Nothing new just the official story. Doesn't say in what way he "mattered" to America apart from being a popular preacher - big whoop. Where ever would America be today without "CT" and the JW religion lol.

  i know this is kind of trivial but i don’t want to partake in something that might have connections with something that jehovah disapproves of.

  i checked the watchtower library and i didn’t find anything on gingerbread man cookies.. .

  good lord...how incredibly stupid and helpless are jdubs getting?

  Jws certainly have their priorities right.

  JW to do list:

  Must shun Tom, Bill and Mary today

  JW to not do list :

  Must not eat cookies shaped like men that taste like ginger

  If it's any consolation for feeling weird about it governments from around the world have spent a lot of time, effort and money looking for evidence of alien life.

  Oh yeah they are concerned about gingerbread being pagan but that's only the half of it with these babies. Isn't it about time we all admit the term "ginger" bread "man" is racist and sexist.

  Now, just in case any of you think I'm being serious LOLLOLLOL!!!

  hahaha, i’m so “brazen”, lol.

  but we’ve had the jws be pretty active in our territory recently, and i got to say this to them on two separate occasions, to three different borgites, lol!

  (it was a glorious moment for me, haha!).

  You would think they are the first people in history to create a website and videos by the way they bang on about it.

  Atheists for Jehovah

  by slimboyfat in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  there are hundreds or thousands of websites on jehovah's witnesses with all sorts of slants, but i have never come across any specifically for atheist jehovah's witnesses.

  has anyone ever seen a site for atheist witnesses?

  i think it would be a great idea, and we could call it atheists for jehovah, as a counterpart to the atheists for jesus.

  Atheists for Jehovah is sort of what JWs are.

  They don't "believe in God, religion or the bible" they only believe in one thing - the borg LOL.

  Have an evening sleep ritual something to signal to your brain it's time to start winding down.

  Avoid devices and screens after a certain hour.

  Don't eat too late.

  Avoid caffeine late in the day.

  Avoid alcohol at bedtime as it may help you fall asleep but cause to wake a few hours later and getting back to sleep wil be more difficult than if you had none. Also will cause rebound anxiety.

  Read something boring and comforting at bedtime - fiction is good for this.

  Focus on breathing inhale for 7 hold for 5 exhale for eight - repeat.

  You are not your thoughts.
