I was also taught that. I was always afraid I might think of a challenge and then Satan would read my mind and he would get me. Trying not to think about it made me think about it and the cycle would repeat. I was told about a boy who challenged Satan and all the WT books in his house flew out the front door into the lawn. I was scared sh$!$less.

We may have interbred with Neanderthals earlier than previously thought.
by cappytan init is now thought that we have been interbreeding with neanderthals as early as 100,000 years ago.. http://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-35595661.
craziest thing i just realized: some women still breed with neanderthals up to this day.
rihanna and chris brown anyone?.

Perhaps volunteer labor doesn't have as many rights and expenses in Germany?
Perhaps they are preparing to lose charity status.

Based on your last post I,would ask are you considered a spiritual JW man? If not that may be why they are so shy. If you are they may just be nervous and not want to lead you on. You know, no dating, only courtship. -

My wife was shy and inexperienced about real life. It was a tough adjustment for a bethelite and a regular pioneer to have to make it on their own.
If you look carefully you can find a hard working, kind, supportive witness girl or woman - just don't ever leave the witnesses.

Good luck STA. Definitely continue to take care of your physical and mental health. Your wife won't like going alone and the questions and looks she'll get but hopefully the congregation and your wife will get used to it pretty quickly. -

It seems that the LDC would have to coordinate with each congregation that makes a purchase request to be sure they have the right information as far as mounting requirements, wiring and other stuff. Sounds like more work for the LDC and more profit for the WTS.
