  What is the purpose of life?

  by fearnotruth22 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  things were different when you were active in the org.

  meetings, talks, service, assemblies, elders meetings, congrgational duties, busy with the hope of a reward of living forever and serving god with eternity in view.

  all of your efforts and goals related to being a jw, your thinking, your views, your life, your future all revolved aroung the org.. with all that aside, what are you doing now?

  what the hell is the big deal about the circuit overseer's visit?

  why does everyone have to drag their bible students and in active friends and family members to the meeting during that week?.

  it is so lame and hypocritical.

  2. friends

  my finace recently started work at a wage which will take me years to reach even though our qualifications will be about the same.

  many women have claimed that the glass ceiling exists and that women are paid less for the same jobs that men do.. what reasons explain this in your mind?

  is it because women might have children?

  i attended a notorious congregation as a child, the infamous winter gardens congregation!

  my cousin and his best friend, both named joe, were elders, my cousin was the po and the other joe was a total loser suck up who wanted to be just like my cousin, joe.

  what was even funnier, as i get off point a bit, is that "suck up" joe's wife, cathy, did everything she could do to get her pudgy lil self to dress, look, walk, and talk like my cousin joe's wife, clementine.
