  If all the world were JWs....

  in my former indoctrinated state, i used to yearn for a time when all the world would be jws.

  but hang on minute, let's just think about what the world would be like if everyone was a jw,.

  first of all, no higher education, so no medical advances, no scientific research, no modern day medicine, infectious disease rife, no doctors, no engineers, so no modern day comforts.

  one elder years ago told me his take on that, he strongly reasoned that god is not wasteful, and for no reason will anything on earth be immediately destroyed, as in those war like photos they print up.

  as eveyone will still need a system of money, and still need housing and transprotation and such. only humans will die....

  he claimed it will take 1000 years to bring the earth back to its clean condition, by eliminating the 'bad' that mankind has done to it.

  Now lets reason on that...

  everyone dies whos not a jw at armageddon.......

  WHO IS GOING TO OPORATE everything?

  THE BANKING SYSTEM, THE ELECTRIC AND PLANTS, THE FARMS? THE TRAINS THE SHIPS TO DELIVER dam caps.

  [good gravy, watching the show on the discovery channel, called soemthing like, earth without man, shows how fast the planet would change without man to maintain things.]

  when not a jw was told that they should go to college? oh wait, trade schools, theyll save the day..lol

  To destroy everything immediately mean sure death for most of the few jws on the planet. lol

  and anyway , were supposed to get a new earth, lol and a new heavens, hmm, why a new heaven? whats wrong with it??

  I have too much crap!! How to declutter/dehoard.....

  some areas of our home are very nice, tidy, clean.

  and other rooms are just junk and clutter and clothes and papers.... omg.

  and now that we are getting older, we realize that we face a time of transition -- and this is hard to cope with too, as we believed the lie that we would never get old, etc.

  Ive read someplace that how we keep our homes reflects our lifestyle or mindset,

  so if your home is cluttered so is your mind or daily life. hmm.
  

  so if your disorganized, you might be a scatter brain? lol

  ok , so thats my mom, lol she can never find anything.
