mrs phizzy voted for the first time today !
we have been out for nearly a decade now, but this is the first time mrs phizzy has been persuaded to vote.. she was always afraid that jw's would see her, and then df her for it, i explained (again, we have been over this before) that they would not do so, and my son had a word in her ear too, which did the trick.. she came out of the polling station and said to me "i voted for someone called teresa may, who is she ?".
trying to wind me up, but i knew the wicked witch of westminster was not on our ballot sheet.
i havent voted for years--simply because where i live is true blue tory--whereas i'm a born-in labour oik---so no point.
but today--i voted. a protest tactical vote. still a waste of time--but at least i can justify saying i told you so in months to come.
hey uk folks, what's going with this story?
was it an unbelieving mate that attacked and elder or something?.
According to that news report "police are appealing for witnesses"
Yep.
i have been out for nearly 40 years now - baptized at 14 (although not to the org), but faded away.
but i am wondering about this:.
aside from the obvious power they wield, what's is in it for the gb?
i wonder if each of them privately know its all a load of bullsh1t---but darent breathe a word of it to any of the others !
hi folks, tight pants twinkle toes here - my first post.
i am the husband of the new poster finally left.
we both recently left, my wife after 43 years and 46 years for me.
hi Pants--welcome to the site...and the rest of your life!
the ryde , isle of wight, uk kingdom hall has been sold ( subject to contract ).
the asking price was £500,000.
one of the first quick builds in the uk.
the Ryde , isle of Wight, UK kingdom hall has been sold ( subject to contract ). the asking price was £500,000. one of the first quick builds in the UK. much needed at the time because of the growth of membership.
paid for by the sale of a previous smaller hall, contributions and donations. the sale money will go to the watchtower. the congregation members--far fewer than before---will have to share a hall with 2 other congregations.
surely proof of the wondrous contraction taking place.
had lunch with some friends during today's waste of time convention.
they spoke of the rumor floating around that the jws will move away from these big regional conventions and have them at assembly halls and tie them in to kingdom halls.. they seemed to believe it was a pretty reliable source.. i think it would be too good to be true but who knows?.
anyone else heard this rumor?.
last of the big conventions ?
last big one i endured was also the last big convention before armageddon.
wembley london UK--about 1969 ?
the nephilim account in genesis is utterly ridiculous when you consider that angels are sex-less beings and would therefore lack sex-drive and romantic attraction.
think of how difficult it is for humans with a sex drive to be sexually attracted to animals.
now take away that sex drive and it becomes literally impossible.

oh ?
i know this is a stupid question because the answer is obvious, but if a person was born a male and gets transgender surgery to turn into female will that person go to heaven as a male or female if they died saved?
i think they will go to heaven with the gender they were born with.
Heaven is as real as the unicorn, tooth fairy etc.
im a real unicorn
i have this single horn
i'm having some serious issues with my child, she is now 5 and her mother is teaching her all sorts of things regards god, jehovah is real, in heaven, pray if you're scared, etc.
the problem is the kid is scared of demons at night and also conflicted that i don't believe, she also figured out jehovah doesn't actually help her not to be scared.. i've tried explaining that i'm there for her, watching over at night.
i've tried introducing her to various churches and beliefs so she understands there is a difference in believes and she likes those churches better than kingdom hall.
its just another form of child abuse. my kids had all this 30+ years ago from their born in mother and her lunatic rutherfordite mother. and theres not a sodding thing i could do about it.
