I understand that the light dims when he comes into a room, there's the sound of distant chanting and the smell of death, his eyes glow with an eerie green light and fluorescent liquid drips from his fangs. Strong men have been known to faint at the sight of him.

how many of you have armed themselves?
by buffalosrfree ini recently bought a high powered rifle and am presently buying a pistol for back-up.
i have a cross bow, a compound bow, and several swords and knives, in fact i have been collecting knives for some time and have learned how to use them in defending myself and in taking the initiative in learning to defend myself.
i am quite versed in using both the croww bow and the compound bow, it seems the goverment doesn't want to defend us and just wants to unarm us.

For home defense the best thing you can do is buy a dog that barks and back it up with a shotgun, number four buck is the answer. So advise my police friends, who also say if they come past the dog don't even hesitate.

What Happens When A Bethelite Questions the Governing Body
by VM44 ini found this personal experience at the freeminds website.
it shows that if a bethel worker asks too many questions they will be asked to leave!.
so if anyone here is currently working at bethel and wants to leave before their time is up, just start asking questions!

The Cuban medical system is so great that people are sailing out of Miami in small leaking boats and on homemade rafts so they can get to Havana and enjoy the wonders of Castros paradise.

I've had health care under both systems, including surgery, and I'll take the US system. Anyone that thinks ordinary Cubans get good medical care is a benighted fool. I know Cubans, ex-Cubans, and people with relatives in Cuba and the whole "wonderful healthcare" deal is a propaganda fairy tale.

A lot of COs end up making 60-70,000 dollars a year, which is not bad considering what they do.

JW and Home Schooling WHY, WHY, WHY????????
by Wordly Andre ini just heard that my nephew will not be attending high school, instead will be doing home schooling, why do jws pressure their kids into home schooling?
i really do love my nephew he is a bright kid, i think he would do really great in high school, and hopefully attend college, but i was informed yesterday that he will not be going to high school because its not safe, and besides he made the decision not to go.
i am sorry but he should go, i know what they got planned for him, home school and full time service, this is the time of his life where he needs to concentrate on his education, he will end up just like his mother, who also never attended high school, seems that when your totally lost into the society, covering all aspects of your life, that leaves you socially inept, depressed, and have a distorted view of the world.

The home schooling thing seems to have a geographic component, some areas are very gung ho on the idea and others don't do it at all. The Org's position on home schooling is actually pretty negative because the home schoolers are missing out on the opportunity to preach to their own "special field." My personal opinion is the most Witness parents that want to home school do it simply because they do not want to deal with the issues associated with public schooling. The best home schooling I've seen, with one exception, was mediocre. The exception had a father with a doctorate and a mother with a teaching certificate.

College Station was a lot better. You were lucky, I got there just before 9:00 the first day and I had to walk 15, 20 minutes through the damn weeds and got to enjoy the fertilizer being spread on the practice field as I walked by. The Parking poeple were grossly incompetent, the Attendents were a complete joke. All in all it was about the worst managed DC I've ever attended.
I understand the problem in College Station was they couldn't come to terms with the hotels. The University was fine and had a great relationship going with the Witnesses.
Couple of observations. I've never seen so many people talking on or otherwise messing with their cell phones during the sessions, and I've never seen so many people not applauding or doing a very desultory job of it. -

"At Heb 12 Paul was concerned the congregation would get tired over the passing years and not be at all of their meetings."
My question is how many meetings did they have? You'd think if it was such a burning issue with Paul he'd have given some details. Like the COs, "not one, not two, not three, not four meetings brothers, but five meetings a week" routine
