Im discussing things online with people and I keep forgetting that they havent' always had the GB and that there was a time that it was just a President or whatever.
When did that change?

At the same time, the group has the highest rate of people leaving, according to Pew. Only 37% of those raised in their faith identify with it as adults.

Apparently there is also some sort of a gay pride thing going on down there.
I'm sure the traffic is going to be insane.

this afternoon the song music box dancer came on the radio and i was instantly transported back to 1978 when my best jw friend got married.. this was "their" song ,, they are now divorced and one of them left the religion and is remarried.. another song that makes my skin crawl from a jw standpoint is mambo # 5.. there was an elder from my old hall, j. renfroe who always was telling the young people what music was acceptable for them to listen to.. and this guy was just so opinionated regarding everything.. so one time at a wedding this song comes on and he starts dancing almost uncontrollably.
it was agony to watch, and i ( and many others felt embarrassed for him because of how he was dancing and how his self rightous opinions seemed to be thrown to the wind this evening.. any other examples of music that became tainted from a jw experience ?.

I got to pp 3 or so of the article re capitalizing Governing Body and a thought came to mind....
A JW will go on and on about how the word Trinity is NOT found in the Bible.
Well, yah, neither is Governing Body, and yet following them around like puppy dogs is the only way a person gets saved.
from jw.org, here is the new definition of the generation from the april 15, 2010 watchtower.. .
article: holy spirits role in the outworking of jehovahs purpose.
13 third, holy spirit is at work in bringing bible.

it seems the watchtower leaders believe that if you were to think about leaving the organization (and listen to "apostates") that you must have a place to go in return.
they feel you must have something, if you were to not accept the organization.
you need hope and belief in something.
Starbucks with a good book.
that is the question.. the turkey that is.
i've brined for 2 years now, but am not sure if i want to do that this year.
anyone else brine their birds?.
LOL
I didn't realize that this could get so many replies. I love the replies. Lots of information available.
I am going to brine it. Which means I need to get thine booty to the grocery store tomorrow for bird buying, not to mention everything else.
So the next step is to give a good look at these brining recipes and go from there.
3 days til Bird Day!
