i know of a congregation on the east coast that is having all bookstudies meet at the kingdom hall!
that's right--no bookstudies in private homes, at least for now.... has anyone else heard of this?
and what could be the reason?
I had the privilege of the book study at my house for 10 years... no one ever "clog my toilet", why? I took the toilet paper out, so that they had to wait and do it at home...ha ha. I got fed up of buying toilet paper for the group.
Some nice sister was so thankful of me having the book study at my house; she used to hide little presents after the study for me, oh the blessings!

im breaking a long absence to ask a question during this evening of soul-searching in what i believe to be the best place to ask it.
i dont know how many people are still here who remember me well, so first a 'hi and miss you guys' to those who are.. im wondering about therapy.
i always thought i had a pretty good handle on my life despite the upheaval of leaving the witnesses.
Hi Moxy
I'm having counselling for my stress and situation in life (its working), take the advice from proplog2, or go buy the book "A guide to Rational Living" ISBN 0-87980-042-9 by Albert Ellis and Robert Harper.
It cuts thru all the crap you have in your own belief system (life rules), and shows you how to get on with your life and happiness.
Do it now and dont suffer any longer with self induced mental pain
Take care

Ps everyone should have a look at Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy, (R.E.B.T.) it really makes sense

mother who poisoned sons is freed.
by natalie williams .
Yeh if this was the Father he would have been lock up for 20 years, women/mothers get off a lot lighter, she tried to kill her kids she should be punished greater, what right has she to try to kill her children?
I know as a father I am treated as a lesser person, the mother seems to get a better, more sympathetic treament then men do.
just my thoughts........
frogit who loves is children just as much as the mother does...........
.
i was standing at a pedestrian crossing when a mother with child said`wait for the green man to appear'.. as a green man is a pagan fertility symbol, should jws use pedestrian crossings.. this needs tob send to brooklyn as fast as possible as anyone weak jw might b stumbled seeing a brother using a pc.
When I take my boys down to the Woods (Sherwood Forest for us, yes of Robin Hood fame) for a walk, we always look for the "Green Man", if you look and stare long enough at the trees and bushes you will see the Green Man hiding in the woods......Give it a try next time you go down to the woods, but be careful not to frighten yourself!
Its just like looking at those curtains that your Grandmother had, if you look long enough, you see faces, kinda subliminal.

What the hell is "Restless Legs"?

No the whole world has gone faulty, its not just the WTs its the whole world..
I see a little child lost and crying, do I go and help, give the child a cuddle? No never, I would be accused as a pervert just for helping a lost and scared child.
Yes the WTs have done wrong, but this modern day world is so twisted..right is wrong wrong is right
Being normal is wrong just loving children is wrong, what a wicked world, and perverted world.
What ever happened to being kind to others?
frogit the one who wants to help and be normal

Twenty years ago my father touched my private parts, after I had had a Pooh..... he wiped my bottom (using Johnson bay wipes), he later washed my private part in the bath, I was just six years old........at the time he was an Elder...............
My mother used to kiss me on the face, and some time on my lips......... at the time she was a pioneer...........
My grandfather was an long time serving Elder giving talks at the circuit assembly........he loved to have me sit on his lap and give me lots of hugs........
I love my boys I love to kiss them..... I love to hold them squeeze them kiss them play with them. O our nice to play with them bathe them.........
What is wrong with this world? Just to be normal with children is wrong............
We can not be normal any more with children, the paedophiles have spoiled it all..............

this morning as i was waiting for my ride into work, i was looking at the trees in my neighborhood.
i don't know what kind of trees they are, but some look like steeples.
i remembered how we were taught that church steeples were like phallic symbols pointing up into jehovah's nose.
