  upon arriving i ran into lots of old friends and really enjoyed seeing everyone and visiting.

  they dont know that im currently struggling with doubts about the organization and they think that im the same old zealous brother.

  i couldnt help but feel a sence of guilt visiting with them about our current number of publishers and how many we had pioneering ect.

  A side benefit to exiting the borg

  my wife and i made the fade in the past year or so - a side benefit is now beginning to become apparent.

  our adult daughter, who was somewhat estranged due to being df'd has come back into our lives.

  [we never did completely shun her, as we never agreed fully with that, but it was always strained because we were under the guilt trip].

  Ah - silly me. I suppose, on the plus side, it's a bonus that the Society have been blessed with so many talented songwriters then!

  KM in 1974 praising people for selling all their stuff and pioneering?

  by ithinkisee in

  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

  The evidence is clear that Jehovah has used and is continuing to use his one organization, with "the faithful and discreet slave" taking the lead.

  I hope I'm not speaking out of turn, but logic tells me that Jehovah CANNOT be using this Organisation, as to mislead so many would be a Sin.

  anyone who uses satalite tv to get information is shunned because they could be getting information from Satan. And therefore misled.

  WOW - Satan has his own TV station?

  a shameless spin-off of http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/85172/1.ashx.

  he's the one who couldn't keep his pants zipped (except when it came to diana).

  so why all this vitriol against camilla?

  Nope stillajwexelder - Monarchs have a choice (Queen Victoria's name was Alexandrina Victoria) and Charles Philip Arthur George has chosen to be King George and not King Charles (well, that's what he said in an interview a few years ago).
