i know there are some here that deep down inside themselves,,, they know this is true,,,,, but can't seem to be brave enough,,, ,,to say it.. .
this jeho myth has got you afraid to think anything negative about jeho-bubba.
heres the idea:
Frankie,
I am not afraid to think anything I want to think. I am not afraid of you either. I am afraid you may have missed a dose or two, though. What I believe is between me and my God. If I want to call Him Sam, I will. If I want to call Him Yahweh, that's my thing.
It is one thing to point out the lies and frauds of a religious organization, however, it is quite another to bait another person in order to get them to hate like you hate.
Kind Regards
anyone in the san diego area planning on attending the 2004 district convention at qualcom stadium?
does anyone go and picket and pass out flyers or pamphlets anymore?
(i remember the stir and excitement of hearing how the attendants had just caught some apostates handing out fake watchtowers inside the convention, and threw them out!
Good advice. It's just that I feel compelled to do something.
Where should I stand with this placard . . . ?
Corvin
but do we see anything today like a ?disgusting thing?
(revelation 17:11) it will yet turn out to be a ?thing that causes desolation.?
and the ten horns that you saw, and the wild beast, these will hate the harlot and will make her devastated and naked, and will eat up her fleshy parts .
I think you have composed a brilliant and beautiful letter, and I intend to use it, if I may. It is straight forward, honest and humble. I wish you lots of success.
What do you have to lose? Well, it might seem like everything, however, in my case, when I am forced into a corner and I am threatened with being abondoned, something in me cries out, "BRING IT ON!" If there is so much love in the org by its members, if my friends and family have so much love for "THE TRUTH" then let them hear "THE TRUTH" and love it. The org has always prided itself on refraining from tickling the ears of those who hear their message, therefore, let the chips fall where they may.
They must answer for their lies and deception.

Frankie, you need to give some supportive detail to what you are asserting. You sound like a loose bowel cannon.
If I were God, due to the total shi@@y ways of mankind all throughout history, I would have made the earth like a freakin' Echa-sketch. People are going to come along and mess with what you have beautifully drawn and screw it up . . . like men have done since the beginning. If I were God, Jehovah, I would be shakin that damn Echa-sketch clean by now . . . and maybe several times over.
There is a number for people like you to call to voice complaints about God directly, and here it is: 1-800-BITE-ME

heres the idea:
Well, dirt-guppy farmer, you are talking to many who always did believe in God, still do believe in God, and always will believe in God. As for his name . . . ? Well, that is matter of debate. Jehovah, Yahweh, YHWH, whatever . . . but yeah some do believe in Him and not everyone thinks he is myth. No matter what you think of the org, I would not be too quick to mock God himself, just incase his name really is Jehovah.

ok, this is kind of lame, but if i keep one person from wasting their money.... those of you who don't know about this, there is such a thing as a 'electric cat box' that scoops itself.
it's not that i'm lazy, but i have 3 cats, and i take pride in keeping cat smell down to zero or close to it.
most people actually comment when they come into my house, that they are amazed they can't smell a cat box.
We were getting ready to purchase one. Thanks for the tip.
ok, i had a thought the other day, and since that is a relatively rare event, i thought i would share it.. .
remember the moonies and their mass weddings?
i don't know enough about them to know just what the point was, or the rationale for something like this.
Here, here! skully!
Instead, you have scads of JW teenagers rushing into marriage with partners who don't even have each other's best interests at heart
That is really the number one cause of divorce: going into a marriage asking yourself, "what am I getting out of this?", instead of, "what can I contribute?"
I once read that the greatest definition of love is: "Having the best interests of another at heart (especially spiritually) before you own."
Good comment skully!

the march 1, 2004 wt, p9 pp6 states:"the only reasonable conclusion, then, is that jesus was referring to a group of chiristians as "the faithful and discreet slave.
" can there be such a thing as a composite slave?
seven hundred years before christ, jehovah referred to the entire nation of israel as "my witnesses" and "my servant whom i have chosen.
OK, fine, but get a load of this: http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/12/68474/1071833/post.ashx
wt 5/15/97 page 19"The
Generation . . . to Come"15
The anointed remnant has been eager to train other sheep for increased responsibilities. Psalm 71:18 says: "Even until old age and gray-headedness, O God, do not leave me, until I may tell about your arm to the generation, to all those who are to come, about your mightiness." Commenting on this verse, the December 15, 1948, Watchtower pointed out that the congregation of anointed Christians had certainly reached old age. It went on to say that the anointed happily "look forward in the light of Bible prophecy and see a new generation." To whom particularly is this referring? The Watchtower said: "Jesus spoke of them as his ?other sheep.?" ?The generation to come? refers to humans who will live under the new earthly administration governed by the Kingdom of the heavens.16
The Bible does not clearly say when all anointed Christians will leave their brothers of this ?generation to come? and go on to be glorified along with Jesus Christ. But these anointed ones are confident that the time for this is approaching. The events foretold in Jesus? great prophecy about "the time of the end" have been coming to pass since 1914, showing that the destruction of this world is near. (Daniel 12:4; Matthew 24:3-14; Mark 13:4-20; Luke 21:7-24) Soon, Jehovah will usher in a new world in which ?the generation to come? will ?inherit the kingdom [the earthly realm] prepared for them from the founding of the world.? (Matthew 25:34) They are thrilled to anticipate the restoration of Paradise and the raising of millions of dead ones from Hades. (Revelation 20:13) Will anointed ones be there to welcome back these resurrected ones? Back in 1925, the May 1 Watch Tower said: "We should not arbitrarily say what God will or will not do. . . . [But] we are led to the conclusion that the members of the Church [anointed Christians] will be glorified before the resurrection of the ancient worthies [faithful pre-Christian witnesses]." Similarly discussing whether some of the anointed would be on hand to welcome back the resurrected ones, the September 1, 1989, Watchtower said: "This would not be necessary."17
True, we do not know what will happen in the case of each anointed Christian. But the presence of Moses and Elijah with Jesus in the transfiguration vision indicates that resurrected anointed Christians are expected to be with Jesus when he comes in glory to "recompense each one according to his behavior" as his judgment is rendered and executed. Further, we remember Jesus? promise that anointed Christians who ?conquer? will share with him in ?shepherding the nations with an iron rod? at Armageddon. When Jesus comes in glory, they will sit with him "judging the twelve tribes of Israel." With Jesus, they will ?crush Satan under their feet.??Matthew 16:27?17:9; 19:28; Revelation 2:26, 27; 16:14, 16; Romans 16:20; Genesis 3:15; Psalm 2:9; 2 Thessalonians 1:9, 10.18
In keeping with his administration of things, Jehovah is progressively moving "to gather all things together again in the Christ." As far as "the things in the heavens" are concerned, his purpose approaches completion. The uniting of Jesus with all the 144,000 in heaven for "the marriage of the Lamb" is near. Hence, more and more longtime, mature brothers of the other sheep, representing "the things on the earth," have had delegated to them weightier responsibilities in support of their anointed brothers. What exciting times we live in! How thrilling to see Jehovah?s purpose moving on to its fulfillment! (Ephesians 1:9, 10; 3:10-12; Revelation 14:1; 19:7, 9) And how the other sheep rejoice to support their anointed brothers as both groups serve together as "one flock" under "one shepherd" in subjection to the King, Jesus Christ, and to the glory of the great Universal Sovereign, Jehovah God!?John 10:16; Philippians 2:9-11.
I think that is a status change, no?
Corvin
