thought i would share this chat with you from the watchtower comments channel.. message from biblestudentsteve:.
nice production.
very slick.
But in reality, just the same fault-finding drivel that's been going on for 100 years.
Sooo, for 100 years now, faults that you admit are there have not been corrected.
Definition of crazy: Doing the same thing over and over expecting different results.
i hate the top of this page pop up slogan; "secrets of pedophilia in an american religion.
" here's why.. a female workmate works next to my desk we have worked together for 2 years, we get along well.
one work mate was fired for looking at porno in a public area.
But still, if you're at work, you shouldn't be goofing off here anyway. Save it for when you get home.
Lunch and break is your own time to do what you want.

I know exactly what you mean.
When I open this site at work I immediately scroll down to get the ads off the screen.
I also have a Jdub that sits about 10 feet diagonally behind me and he likes to snoop and see what I'm looking at.
Prick! Oh well.
i thought in this hounding season we could have a little list of comebacks to jdub invitations to the memorial.. kinda like a reasoning book witnessing tool in reverse.. i thought of one just today;.
when the dub inevitably says this is the one thing we are commanded to do in the bible;.
you might respond with; really could you please show me from the bible where it says we are to observe .
I will probably be invited on Sunday when I see some dub relatives.
Conversation might go something like this;
dub "Hi moo I'd like to give you this invitation to the memorial on and at blah blah blah."
moo "Are you sure you want me to come ?"
dub "Of course we would love to see you there.
moo "Ok, just warning you that I will not reject Jesus, I will be partaking of the free gift of salvation offered by Jesus."
dub ""

this morning i had a 40 min phone conversation with my ex husband because i spoke with my 15 year old son on wednesday about the inaccuracies of the jw belief system he has been raised with by his dad.
obviously ex husband is not happy about this.
the one thing he kept saying is that even if it is wrong it is not a bad way to live your life............what would you say to this?.
even if it is wrong it is not a bad way to live your life............what would you say to this?
Paul said if it is wrong then they are to be pitied most of all men.

other christians partaking of the emblems, and btw do you have partakers at your congregation so that I could
observe them doing so.
Please add more
i just found out my 67 year old elder/dad has been there too, with his sister who used to live up that way.
it is freaky-deaky weird/scary.
why the hey would jesus pick a weirdo group that thinks pagan egyptian pyramids (who used to enslave and torture gods people) could give the answer to his second coming....pathetic...................oompa
Haven't been there yet. I was thinking of taking a little trip out there it's about a 4 hour drive for me.
I'd like to get some pictures of me and the wife standing next to it,maybe send them to relatives to show them our little trip.
When I showed my mom the pictures of the pyramid off the internet she vehemetly denied them.
Big brother elder however, confirmed that the pictures were real.
Suddenly, it didn't matter about the pyramid, "that's in the past. Why do you always bring up the past"?
What else is there to do out there, if I go for a long weekend?
lorri macgregor: "canada gags the gospel"http://sharpens.blogspot.com/2008/02/lorri-macgregor-canada-gags-gospel.html.
lorri macgregor, co-founder along with her husband keith of macgregor ministries a christian counter-cult apologetics organization in british columbia, canada, will address the theme: "canada gags the gospel.
" the canadian government will not allow any critiques of other religions.
So, when does the Watchtower lose its charitable status ?
i'm curious.
has anyone been taken out of their parents and/or relatives 'will' because of leaving the jw's?

Yes, only by a thread.
My uncle is giving everything to the b0rg hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Makes me think of Sammy Hagar - Buying my way into heaven.
this afternoon i attended the ca, pioneer / pioneer / pioneer / pioneer, everything else you might need to do in life is not important.
focus on the new system, and making disciples !
and near the end of the session, the district overseer made a quick but noted comment.
Welcome LL,
Work all week then off to waste your weekend sitting inside a building, meeeemories.
The start of the realization of what your involved in, looking around seeing the blank distant stares on peoples faces.
