wow....i just saw the video that was linked in another thread on this baord and i don't know how to explain it. i'm not a believer in intelligent alien life forms or UFOs but seeing that video makes me wonder. i'd like to hear a logical explanation b/c i don't have one. by the way this was in the middle of the day. i have seen many satelites move accross the night sky but i have never seen one in the middle of the day.

i'm going to the wedding of my second cousin who is a fader, never babptised, and he is marrying a wordly girl. all his family are JWs (his mother is my mom's aunt) as well as most of the family on my mom's side (well her aunt's and uncles, most of the kids are not JWs). so this makes for an intersting weekend...me and my wordly GF along w/ most of my second cousins, also worldy, vs my family, grandmother and my mom's uncles and aunts. all of the brides quests and family are worldy so this should make for an interesting weekend.

If it means you left the religion because you observed the repeated drunkenness of elders, unmarried pioneers having sex and constant wild partying, and elders cheating others in business, all blatantly and hypocritically condoned, then yes, I was stumbled.
HA!!! that kind of behavior is what kept me in so long. i was attracted to this sort in the KH as i was always partying and drinking even underage.
i don't htink i was ever stumbled but there were def. people i didn't like...mostly the self righteous people. i don't know if i stumbled anyone but i probably did b/c i definately had the "i don't give a fuck" attitude.

How Many Of You "Bumped" Your Field Service Hours?
by EvilForce inhow many of you bumped up your field service hours so you could keep the elders off your back?
our congo had a 10 hour "soft" target for guys.
however, if you didn't meet the 10 hours you got your "privledges" reduced or revoked.

damn i almost forgot about this. my dad's rule was that if someone asked you "why are you so dressed up" or "what are you doing" and you could answer "i'm in field service" then you could be counting your time. so for me my time started when i left the house and stopped when i got back home. on top of that i would add an hour or two on my report at the ened of the month. i was reporting 10-15 hours a month when i was probaby getting 4 at the most. i never felt bad about it and my dad actually encouraged it.

One of the most important books I have read
by jaffacake inuntil about 4 years ago i could count on two hands the number of books i had read, i have never been a reader, i got enough of that at work!
i have read a lot since then, but for me personally, the most influential ones (you remember where you were when you first read them, and had to go back to them) were:
the bible

does Keith Ward, in his book, teach that the bible is the inspired word of god and the only collection of true holy writings? or does it take the view of the bible as a collection of ancient writings that have no application for today?
