  Suitable careers for JW children to aim for!

  by Gill in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the october the 1st watchtower has interesting views on the education of jw children.. page 30, in which one jw explains how he ended up in ft service says:.

  'we did not associate with our school mates but only with those in the congregation who had good spiritual habits.'.

  interesting as this shows judgmentalism and criticism 'even' in the jw congregation.. then on page 31 it explains how parents must offer their children, as early as possible, proper guidance in their choice of school subjects and vocation goals.. 'rather than choose academic subjects that are geared toward a university education, parents and children need to consider courses that are useful in pursuing a theocratic career.'.

  I think Sara Annie hit the nail on the head when she said that college develops critical thinking skills. Sitting in one of my classes awhile back one of my prof's said the exact same thing. He said that we could all go and read the text book and teach ourselves the course and the only reason he was there was to help us develop our critical thinking skills.

  one of my bad habits is cracking my neck and spine.

  so many times when i'm tense i move my head from side to side and hear a loud series of cracks in my neck and the tension just melts away.

  same with my spine, i can twist my body a certain way and feel and hear my lower spine crack.

  what songs do you listen to over and over again and never get tired of.

  here's my list.. if you tolerate this - manic street preachers.

  I'm just browsing through all my mp3's and alot of the 'grunge' music still sounds as good now as it did 10+ years ago

  Screaming Trees : "all i know" and "nearly lost you"

  Candlebox: "10,000 Horses" and "far behind"

  Soundgarden: "the day i tried to live" and "fell on black days"

  I'm hoping the second coming of Kurt Cobain makes his arrival in the next decade
