did you have the above instead of xmas?.
we did as a family with about 16 going to it and giving gifts normally feb time.
now though we have been banned from going as we had xmas this year and you can't have both it would seem.
We would have fireworks after the 5th of Nov as we were not supposed to have Guy Fawkes day.
Guy Fawkes night IS 5th November ....and I have ALWAYS done it - English Tradition, and nobody got beheaded in the New Testament on Guy Fawkes night - so THERE YOU GO!!!!!!!!!!!

what if we all printed up some flyers advertising ..........seek the truth about the truth.go to jw.com for the answers to questions youv'e had or may have.read articles from the watchtower that the society hopes you will never find.. could we legaly put those on their windshields during a meeting?im sure we could do it at least once,and then if asked to leave comply with their wishes.its a well nown fact that out of 100 or 1000 or 100,000 that some will take the bait and check it out just due to human curiousity.. if we all started using the same informal preaching as them such as dropping flyers at laundry mats and phone booths and grociery stores etc you would think it would catch on.i havent counted all the members of this board and how many countries are represented but it sure looks like a lot to me.. what do you guys and gals think?..............ken
Tell you what - a good 'flier' could be posted during the Memorial next month - just need to produce a 'leaflet'' - I am willing to print off and distribute :)
with the latest insider news regarding the awake magazine going to a monthly publication, now would be a good time to examine a brief history of how jehovah has blessed the organization by simplifying it.
1993 paid for literature went to donation-based literature.
mid 1990s no food at assemblies and conventions.
I have yet to find a verse which says you have to report your hours
I have yet to find a 'verse' which says that a beard is not allowed - I know a 'sister' with facial hair that any man would be proud of - lol
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?
The funny thing to realize is this: Someone in authority at Bethel would have had to have had the thought, "Hey! Let's join the United Nations!" . . . . and then did it.
Of course - but didn't they KNOW about their OWN ''God-knows-how-many-years-preaching-AGAINST-the-UN'' teachings? Can you IMAGINE applying for the UN card at the same time printing crap to the subservient about its evil ways? I couldn't live with myself - how did they sleep soundly for 10 years?
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

<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??
