  are we sure this is talking about a four-legged beast here.. if it were, god would not demand the death penalty for a dumb animal.

  with no reasoning power that was raped.

  Finding homes for the former 'bethelites' and 'special pioneers'

  since the liberal government has been elected in canada, it seems that people are looking to the future with a little more optimism and hope.

  it is only human nature that with change, we would think that the change would be for the better.

  the courts have ruled, in canada, that it is unconstitutional to deny the homeless the right to sleep in parks.

  What I Hate About Halloween....

  by konceptual99 in

  ....is that it has totally wiped away the distinct celebration of november 5th and bonfire night.

  fireworks and bonfires are still ubiquitous this time of year but it's just merged in with halloween which, whilst always being celebrated, was not as promoted and so overwhelming as it is now.. bring back the guy!.

  i used to love the run up to bonfire night --as a kid. such fun with bangers----stuffing them up car exhausts---posting them into letter boxes. tying them to rockets and firing them at other gangs. dropping them fizzing into muddy puddles.

  happy days --lol

  a number of years ago when i was still active, our service group was having a coffee break with the visiting circuit overseer.

  during the conversation he mentioned that the "society" was now being run like a business.

  being raised in the "truth" i thought that rather odd (and my eyes began to be opened!

  going back 50 years to my late teens--i was a regular pio and a servant then------i was in a working class congregation--most of the men had jobs--but low incomes--and several mouths to feed.

  the donated income was very low----mainly due to the "jehovah will provide " attitude---meaning someone else will stump up.

  Disfellowshipped at a funeral

  by Yogapants in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  recently at a funeral for an active jw, death was sudden and tragic.

  was surprised that that one of the disfellowshipped children of the deceased was comforted by the jw's at the funeral.

  i would say the majority hugged and said a few short words to the disfellowshipped child on the recieving line to comfort the family.
