i finally removed my md card from my wallet yesterday.. although we were encouraged to create a new card annually, i had an internal hesitation, and a lack of enthusiam for it, as well as the meaningless cards for my kids.. the card that was pulled from my wallet was dated 1994. i obviously had some unconscious, if not conscious, problems with the borg, maybe with the 1995 generations bs.. did others stop updating their cards long before exiting?.

Kairos - you're the same as me, then.
Weird, isn't it?
(You wasted another 14 years, I wasted another 20 - bloody depressing)
seeing various/changing laws on the same action, some may feel truth is relative, and there is no such thing as right and wrong.. yet a closer look at beneath the details would show that truth is not relative, and everyone knows what is right and wrong.. driving in the night by putting the head-light off is wrong, but right when country is in war with another country.
behind both the conflicting laws, the truth is same: safety and welfare of the people.
this is true of notion about what is right and wrong:.
To me, truth is absolute,
I have a mathematical, logical mind.
2 + 3 = 5.
That is truth.
The universe functions on precise math.

This is a chart of the Canadian statements for the past 5 years.
You can see the spike in 2010, a modest increase in 2011, but then plummets in 2012 and 2013.
Unless they're moving the cash to the Caymans, those are big drops.

interesting.
using the technique of "cornering" people.
Anthony Anderson told this story on Jimmy Kimmel a few nights ago.
Pretty weird.
as you all know i am just going thru the motions.
well today during the brain washing session.
one stupid elder made the comment of.....an i quote "the jw.org website is the most visited website in the world!
A model family's was interviewed - part of their daily routine is checking AT LEAST once a day, each member in a family of 5.
During the meetings I would be on the site an average of 10 times.
Hits are different than visits.
Visits are different than unique visits.
the watchtower says:.
true christians keep clear of false worship, rejecting false religious teachings.
this means that we avoid exposure to religious programs on radio and television as well as religious literature that promotes lies about god and his word.
There is unlimited "cherry-picking" by the WTS.
That is, they will reference a "worldly" source to bolster a particular point of view. But they will use that same source for so many other topics that are taught.
i am a big fan of the group 30 seconds to mars, and whats amazing is many of their songs seem to have a anti cult theme like "huricane" "up in the air" and others.
so after i watched a video of the song huricane, so i could see the lyrics i googled to see if they, the lead singer jared leto and his brother shannon, were former jw's and yes they were.
crazy small world!!!!.
Great song.
