..... with my 7-year-old son!
last night, while i was still brushing my teeth, he crawled into my bed and laid his head on my pillow.
i jokingly told him that he wasn't supposed to be on my side of the bed and that he had to move.
When my son was 5, he was still really in his shell. His Dad and I took him to the park after buying him some softball gear, and we were trying to help him learn to swing at the ball and hit it. He wasn't hitting it too much, and I just adore him so much, so I was worried that he would get too discouraged or even upset. Somehow he sensed my anguish for his comfort, and said quietly, "It's okay, Mom."
He was comforting me! What a wise little son.

Very cute, Reboot!
Oh, Gadget!
i was looking back and a month ago there was a topic about e-watchman and who he was and why he would expose the wt with one side of his mouth and encourage loyalty with the other side.
i wonder if these might be the reasons.... 1. he himself claims to be of the anointed and truly believes he is helping to expose the "evil slave" amongst jehovah's people.. 2. by encouraging loyalty to the wt he doesn't scare away the numberous active witnesses who read his columns and send in questions.
they read and stay in the congregations.
From one of his articles, in fact the first one I ever read after discovering his site, I believe that is exactly where he's coming from. And he's never boring!
That was so funny, and kind of cute, asking the other posters here not to flame you to a crisp. LOL. Very good.
i believe they are "cultlike" but i don't think they are a "cult"........and you?
Any group that is not ALLOWED to have differing views, not PERMITTED to speak to other members about different beliefs they may have developed, any group that is required to REPORT another member who has uttered dissenting beliefs, any group that almost literally hunts down members and carries on INVESTIGATIONS of possible lack of belief on their part, then threatens and ultimately punishes any member, sometimes for life, for daring to not agree with them, yes, I call that group a cult.
Congratulations, Jeff - sounds wonderful. You'll be ready, I expect, the moment you first hold the baby.
wt literature, how important is it?
now they have the ability to just upload the current issues on their web site and the individuals could just download then in pdf format and print them out and then underline the answers to all questions asked in red pencil.
no need to print millions.

Thanks, Amazing, for all that you're doing for so many, and at great cost to yourself I'm sure. I do hope you take care of yourself! We definitely need you around for a long time yet!
