anyone here read fantasy novels?
i know most of us have been away with the fairies, for real.
so i can understand if some give the genre a wide berth.
When I read the title of this thread I thought it would have to do with Chinese chicks frolicking naked through waterfalls or something.
Like I said Mungobaobab - '''ONCE'' is a good read - fairies AND sex, and ''NOBODY TRUE'', also by James Herbert - sex again, this time with stiffs (dead peeps) - so something for everyone
like most on this board, i know the story, have seen the un press release, ect.
but can someone comment on two questions for me?.
who caught them with their hands in the cookie jar?
<caps lock on for this one> YES, AT THE END OF THE DAY, WHAT DID GOD NEED A LIBRARY TICKET FOR? HOW DID THIS 'BENEFIT' HIS ORGANISATION? I'D LIKE TO KNOW WHAT HAS 10 YEARS OF ASSOCIATING WITH THE UN ACHIEVED? Sorry for shouting

ENglishman - prior to being on here I wasn't aware of the UN thing (maybe that's because I don't associate, I really don't know) - am wondering if the average British JW is in full possession of the facts?
.
in a previous topic i ask if anyone could sing a kingdom song off by heart.
how many by comparison can sing the first verse of a christmas carol??????.
I wouldn't know a KH song if I tripped over it - but I really love some Christmas carols - sung with more enthusiasm too.
someone on this site mentioned they got a km off ebay that praised those that sold all their belongings and preached.. does anyone know which km that was?.
interesting, when going through the society's cd-rom i noticed that the drama for the district convention in 1975 was about noah's ark and was something along the lines of "there's still time left!
" (i'm paraphrasing).. -dm
I sincerely hope that God compensates these TRUE believers and genuine people.
Bonnie - I understand why you held back about your doubts - I am now thinking that I have ONE chance to put what I know forward, and I don't want to blow it. Am waiting for right opportunity.

No one thought anything of it at the time as it was explianed that it would benefit the org with research
You mean that several thousand people just heard that and dismissed everything they'd ever heard / believed about the UN/Beast? Is there a special stupidity test to qualify to be a dub??
i have noticed timekeeping has got worse at meetings lately - always running over - some elders are very bad - but i notice it is always the publishers that get counseled not the elders and they are the worse culprits.
ministerial servants seem to be ok -the obviously want to progeress to elder and feel if they keep going over time they will not make elder.
i am told the worse person of all for timekeeping was freddie franz -anybody have personal experience of this?
I remember (from the platform, more than 20 years ago) the Congregation being 'criticised' (for want of a better word) for their general lateness. The 'brother' said that the excuse of ''forgetting the time'' would work both ways, and that this would mean that if you were late for one meeting, it makes sense that you'd be early for the next one.

since the WT withdrew their NGO status that the little "Watching the World" statements about the UN quit.
That's utterly disgusting - and sneaky - of COURSE the WTBTS was promoting the UN through its literature, but clandestinely, treating the 'flock' as stupid or ignorant (a quality well promoted).
What was their explanation for the sudden withdrawal in 2001? Nothing to do with being 'found out'? lol
this is a quote by ciro aulicino that was given in a talk oct 2001 i'd like to just share one thing, so, to let you know how much god loves you.
did you know he made over 250,000 flowers?
how, you say, well, what does flowers have to do with this?
I collect bottles of Port - so as long as it's still being produced, I am immortal (I'm sure I can adapt Ciro's 'crap' to accommodate that).
over the years i have become less of male chauvanist pig and much more chivalrous - my wife says she as a woman likes men to be men and hold doors open for her and stand up on an airport shuttle bus etc .
if there are no seats left.
to me the wtbts is very chauvanistic and not very chivalrous.
I did hear that a true gentleman is one who takes all the weight on his elbows - lolol
