  sometime this week.

  my parents are getting a lot of heat from the congregation, and tension in my house was already super high.

  i know it's inevitable.

  Step 1. Don't panic.

  Try to relax.

  Lay down and think.

  Sounds like you're under 18.

  Don.

  Very nicely done video.

  I checked your first post, which used the phrase "angry apostate."

  It looks to me that your "anger" is being channeled purposefully.

  More power to you.

  Elders attempted to catch me out

  hey all,.

  i had two elders just "drop in" yesterday...walked around the back of my house and all....rude....i happened to be home, and opened the door.... one is doing spring cleaning at his house, and so in general chit chat, they spoke of how we all dont need to keep the bound volumes or older mags anymore, as everything we need is on the website or cd rom.... i just casually said, "yes, but its nice to have the originals so we can see the original wording and info".

  one of them snapped his neck spinning so quick, frothed at the mouth and said "what do you mean changes?...nothing changes!!".

  Was it not announced at your halls, that the reader of the WT and the BS (yeah, I know ...) to check the CURRENT online edition of the book and WT. There was a WT study which had a changed paragraph between its printing and the study about 7 months ago.

  Blood, Fractions Policy and Milk Products compared

  by Not Feeling It in

  this is my first post on the new site so here goes.... .

  i was reading the post a while back from "v" on blood policy and fractions where it was compared to a ham sandwich.

  this was a good illustration, but i thought it lacking a bit in that the components exist on their own as food items rather than derivatives.

  For Blondie.

  I'm a fairly well-read longtime born-in.

  Do you recall anything about leukocytes in cow milk?

  "The WTS iS not run by the GB. Thry are mascots. Would anyone want Anthony Morris or Lett running their business. after they booted Franz and Milton G, the show has been run by the corporations. Of course these letters come from the "governing body" but it's not their ideas."

  This is one of the more logical statements on this site.

  GB were "traveling overseers" who have been granted a true traveler's ultimate lifestyle - a lifetime of weekly travel around the globe.

  Shaving: Wet or Electric?

  2. friends

  something i ponder about now and again.

  i don't shave that much, maybe twice a week so it's not even a big deal, but i saw someone at the health club using an electric shaver and that got me pondering all over again.. .

  i've been using mach iii recently and fairly happy with that.

  A literature servant was latino.

  When he was passing out badges, I asked him to do the quote.

  Over his head. (Love that movie.)

  The dumest thing an elder ever said to me..

  by new hope and happiness in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  conversation with an elder...i said " did you watch due south yesterday" and he said " ive got far more important things to do".

  i mean that comment of his got me to thinking and wondering, and made me see he was missing out on living..and i think that comment was the straw that broke this boys faith, and started my i dont want to be a witness anymore.

  kind of wierd how a simple question opened my eyes.. and now as i write this i am watching " the rebel" a 1950s western series, and its great and its even better my 9 year old is watching with me..and there is nothing more important than being happy.. .
