with all that is going on in recent years, where are their angels now.. when was the last time you heard about an angel helping one of jehoveh's witnesses in the field service from the society.their official web site has a lot to say about the angels and angelic involvement in the watchtower's affairs.. lately, they have been quiet about the angels.

a frog goes into a bank.....

by pudd in

"miss whack, i'd like to get a $30,000 loan to take a holiday.

Good one pudd !

Here's another...

A man rushes his dog to the Vet's...

A man runs into the vet's office carrying his dog, screaming for help. The vet rushes him back to an examination room and has him put his dog down on the examination table. The vet examines the still, limp body and after a few moments, tells the man that his dog, regrettably, is dead. The man, clearly agitated and not willing to accept this, demands a second opinion.

The vet goes into the back room and comes out with a cat and puts the cat down next to the dog's body. The cat sniffs the body, walks from head to tail, poking and sniffing the dog's body and finally looks at the vet and meows.

The vet looks at the man and says, "I'm sorry, but the cat thinks that your dog is dead, too."

Then a huge black retriever comes trotting out of the back room and looks over the body, runs three circles around it and barks then leaves the room.
The vet said yep, he thinks your dogs dead too.

The man, finally resigned to the diagnosis, thanks the vet and asks how much he owes. The vet answers, "$650."

"$650 to tell me my dog is dead?!" exclaims the man.

"Well," the vet replies, "I would only have charged you $50 for my initial diagnosis. The additional $600 was for the cat scan and the lab work."

Wildfire,

I know from what you've said, there are times when you must feel totally overwhelmed and without enough resources to rely on...then you feel helpless. You have had very tough times. Having to deal with this religion alone overwhelms some people. Dealing with an abusive husband overwhelms others. Raising 5 children with different needs, ages and personalities overwhelms a lot of good people. Dealing with a child that has mental illness AND no father AND the WT's unbalancing, confusing, heartbreaking influences on him...AND on you is extreme pressure.

On top of all that...taking care...good care of everyone else...you are suffering from depression.

When I remember and picture in my mind all you have accomplished, yes, a c c o m p l i s h e d I am very proud of you. Despite everything, YOU are still here, battling away. When you need help, you ask for it...you're doing it now. I am sure it was YOU that is getting your son into that clinical study. I think you are the heart and soul and power for your family. You are keeping them together as best you can. You are indespensible. You are needed.

Flyinghigh caught this first, something you said:

...sometimes nothing makes sense anymore.. i cant please everyone...i cant erase the horrible past my children went thru.....i knowthat..

Sometimes, when I overload my computer with too much 'stuff ' running, I get a "Resources Are Very Low" message. It tells me to "Shut Down" some programs to relieve the load on the CPU. If I don't, you know what'll happen -- CRASH !

Maybe you've taken on too much at one time. When your "Resources" are low, you need a rest, too. As much as you want to try and help everybody else, they are adults now. They need to find their own way, make their own mistakes and figure out solutions -- on their own. Just like you've done. You maybe taking on too much and others may be letting you. Something's got to change.

You are not a computer girl, you're flesh and blood. Your kids need to get over themselves and give you some help and rest. You need to take care of yourself now.

You've done your best for them. We are all proud of you girl !

"Friendship with the world"

by Schizm in

jw
friends

adulteresses, do you not know that the friendship with the world is enmity with god?

whoever, therefore, wants to be a friend of the world is constituting himself an enemy of god.--james 4:4. .

for you who may still believe in the the bible, how do you understand the above text?

Rabbit

Anuva, waiting for Schisms to answer questions to things he's brought up will take a really long time.

He would rather bring up odd-ball ideas about stuff, get everybody to try and answer logically, then when he gets backed into a corner, because he has no answer...he simply disappears.

Time after time...

Were you ever a victim of the "JW STARE"?

by doodle-v in

jw
friends

you know what i'm talking about... .

for instance, if you go to a meeting and haven't been there for ages.

your stand up during the song and suddenly what seems like the whole cong gets afflicted with the jw stare.

Rabbit

I've gotten the stare and the anti-stare, when I first started to be marked, with gossip.

Schisms, ever been had a Rabbit stare ? Because you won't answer questions that you started ?

Tell us about Lot and his daughters.

Do you like to get drunk???

by Confucious in

jw
friends

been going through a lot lately.

feeling the depression creeping in every once in awhile.

who here likes to pound back a few beers???

Rabbit

Every once in a while, it seems like the thing to do. I usually like to 'get mellow' once a week. But, drunk...? Only 4 or 5 times in my life have I ever done that...everytime I can point to the WT causing so much pain, for feeling "I just had to get drunk."

JW's and government

by Granny Linda in

jw
friends

my jw sister works for the postal service, wearing the uniform and driving one of their mail trucks.

not only do i think this is hypocritical given the jw stance on government, it pisses me off each time i go to the post office and read the stupid sign about postal employees and federal crimes blah blah blah - like, what makes them so much more important than any other working person.. anyhow this has been bugging me for some time and i'd really like to confront her one day about wearing a symbol of the government, but i doubt i'll ever have the chance.

gawd, i detest those phoney people.. gl.

Rabbit

That's always your complaint, you CLAIM people can't'don't want to discuss stuff with you. Well...here I am !

Discuss away. Let's finish one subject at a time:

Speaking of Lot...didja' ever figure out how to explain Lot's daughters, huh?

People are waiting...Schisms !

I won't shun you!
