  in my spiritual journey, which includes trying to decide if i still believe in god anymore or not i am beginning to question if god listened to my prayers or even answered them.

  i think i had a track record of praying more when i needed something.

  terrible i know.

  want to say YES dieing to say YES but its been so long since i prayed & as i remember it i have to say i dont think so

  is that a lack of faith? its one of the things that guts me the most, it is very ambiguous....

  Been to London today!!!

  i haven't been to london in about 15 years.

  i decided to take my kids for their first outing to see the sights.

  i remember as a kid going with my mom and nan, we actually went inside the houses of parliament, went in the house of lords, up downing st, but now with the terrorist threats obviously all thats changed.. there is a definate difference in the security aspect of it, but not enough to take the shine off the experience.. we saw the changing of the guard at buckingham palace, the band playing were the ghurka regiment, something i have never seen before.

  Breastfeeding not allowed.

  by The Scotsman in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  shocker at the group last week..... i was at the group last week (1st in about 4 weeks) and the conductor (the p.o.

  ) takes a sister aside and tells her that she was not allowed to breastfeed her baby before or after the book study because "someone" found it awkward.. hmm, i wonder if it was him that found it awkward.. anyway the twist in the story is that the group meets at her house.

  the sisters husband was far from happy but is to reserved to do anything about it.

  what have jws got against beards ?

  by looloo in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  and it really used to annoy me that jesus and john the baptist both had such neat and well trimmed beards in the watchtower literature , how unlikley would that be in reality ?

  also they never wore a suit so why do "true christians "have to wear one , is all about appearences by any chance and giving a false impression ?

  its not so much that they dont want brothers to have beards, its the fear that some sisters might take it up!!

  lets face it we have all seen a bit of face fuzz on the ODD sister.... ( any one got a Bic)

  Watchtower Question from readers= Slams hunting??? Why???

  by Witness 007 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  even though the bible does not condemn hunting watch them push their personal opinion and trun it into watchtower law.. watchtower dec 1 2007 p.31 "how should christians view hunting?

  } "the bible does not condemn hunting or fishing.." {great leave it there..no need to push personal thoughts on brothers, right?

  } ".....the apostles who were fisherman were likely gratified by a good catch.

  please have a look at the white horse on page 91 of rev climax book(the horse that jesus is riding).

  this horse is what a horse should look like.

  (don't look at it too long or you may be tempted) now look at the same white horse on page 23 of the feb 15th 2008 wt.

  is this allowed?

  i am being ignored by my neighbours and have been gingerly waved to by an elder.

  now i haven't heard anything from anyone but is it possible to be disfellowshipped without my knowing?

  i would say it may because you have not been to the meeting in some time

  you know jws get a 6th sense about theses things.

  i get funny looks in the street from time to time, they just dont want to know if there's a problem.

  in case it puts them in a uncomfortable position, its just there way of puting there heads in the sand..
