  Only J.w's will survive the big A

  by toddy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  my question is,if it is true that only j.w's will survive then surely everybody on the planet should at least get the option of becoming a witness,but there are people living in remote parts of the world who rarely come into contact with civilisation,im pretty sure there are still small tribes of people living in some rainforest who haven't even been discovered yet,where do theses people fit in,do they just perish like the rest of us?.

  sorry if this is a daft question,been on the guinness all night!

  Does anyone get scared?

  by aud8 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  does anyone who has left the organisation ever get scared at current world events and what they seem to be leading to?

  more and more the governments are getting fed up with religion, there is now more than even a call "for" peace rather than "of" peace and security.

  bin laden and his extremist religious views would give rise to the thought that governments will in the future be intent on eradicating religion altogether due to the trouble it causes.

  This caught my eye.

  Hitler no doubt killed thousands of sweet old Jewish ladies. Stalin starved millions of Ukranian peasants. Why do you assume that YOU are so special? Jehovah's pre-recorded judgments are that this system meet up with it's day of justice.

  Nope, I don't think I am special at all. With you catagorizing him with Hitler and Stalin, apparently, neither is Jehovah.

  Let's have some honest answers

  ok all you ex's, be honest.

  do you ever have that little voice pop in your head and say "what if - just what if they're right?".

  it happens to me on occasion and i've been totally out for years.

  I did think "what if they are right?" for many years. Now, mind you, my family had been officially inactive since I was 10. Those images of death and destruction are powerful to a kid. I carried those images well into my 20's.

  Then, as time passed, I realized that it's all BULL. When I began to actually think about some of the teachings with a reasoned and dispassionate view, how absurd it all seemed to me.

  I mean, come on!! One is toast because they celebrate their birthdays? Celebrate X-mas? Don't do enough hours out in service? Associate with someone who doesn't share one's view? Wear a beard?

  What kind of nonsense is that?

  As for right now. My views have been further illuminated by all the hard work from many of the posters here. So, any doubts that might have still had a hint of smoke smoldering, have been thoroughly extinguished.

  The WWII Vets and Me

  by COMF in

  on the way from seatac airport to my son's hometown, we decided to stop for dinner at a golden corral restaurant in maryville.

  the place was packed and had a waiting line, and it turned out they were providing free meals to all veterans or currently active military.

  there were quite a number of guys wearing their vfw hats or similar identification, and many more who were not, but were easily identified by age as probable wwii vets.. we sat among them and ate happily, and i took time to study the crowd.

  What a wonderful thing you did. Good for you, talking to those older vets. Your experience warmed my heart.

  I am assuming you are serious, right?

  Well, I do believe that over use of profanity can be detrimental to ones effectiveness in being taken seriously. The message is lost or deemed less worthy because the expressor of such language is assumed to be of less intelligence.

  I hope I'm offending anyone

  I assure you, Sir, you have not offended me in the least.

  That being said

  The rebel in me breaks free to exclaim:

  Cuss to live, live to cuss!

  With utmost respect and humility,

  I am,

  i was at work tonight and we were joking around and talking about old shows we used to watch while growing up.

  i thought it would be fun if we wrote a line from a show and see if we could guess what show it came from.

  my name is lenny, and if i ain't got it, there isn't any.

  Why Not Render Your Gender?

  by Englishman in

  2. friends

  ever been in a situation where you start to feel a certain affinity with a poster?.

  i have, quite recently i began to take particular notice of one posters writings, and i thought to myself - 'that fella has got his head screwed on!'.

  a week or so later said "fella" made a reference to her husband!

  LOL E-man!

  I have read a few posts where I thought the girl was a guy and the guy was a girl. Then I get straighten out, pronto, when he or she refers to his wife or her husband. Perhaps, Simon could put a little box in our profiles that lets the reader know if we are male or female. One could check male or female. However, don't leave it blank for us to fill in. I can just see it now! Q. Sex? A. Yes! Please!
