Welcome to the board gtwriter99
A baker's dozen.....Matt. 16:6.
ok so i just remembered something this morning that made me laugh really hard and it happened about 12 years ago:.
my family were in the field service one saturday morning.. my little brother did nothing if not piss my dad off as much as possible, not sure if it was on purpose or just a personality clash, but anyway.. i'm pretty sure little bro would not get out at a door and was also possibly doing something mischevious, i.e.
drawing funny yet inappropriate comics to entertain himself and his sisters.. so my dad demands that my bro get out.
GGBG,
Funny story....I'll have to call my kids and ask them if I was ever like your dad.
The funiest thing that happened while I was still going out "in service" was when we were picking up an over-righteous sister at her house. The porch had a coating of black ice....she slipped and her dress went up over her head. My kids always called her Sister Bloomers after that.
question to those of you out there who have managed to stay happily married (since i can't seem to pick the right partner)--.
how important is intimacy to your relationship?
i had a boyfriend that i had wonderful fireworks in the bedroom and i was madly in love with him.
It all depends on the amount of value each partner assigns to their sexual incounters with each other. A lasting marriage is made up of many different parts sex being just one aspect. Many couples stay together even after numerous devasating events in their lives together. Some fall apart over the most trival reasons.If good sex alone makes for a lasting marriage...well IMO that's a marriage between sex organs and not real people who truly love each other.

my care had an interesting conversion with 2 male jws.. they said that world peace(or should that be armageddon?
) will happen any second soon, so they were desperately knocking on people doors to convert them!.
At the assembly this Saturday the first speaker kept repeating, "The end of this system is very VERY close at hand." It's like screaming FIRE!! in a crowded building. Scream it out enough times and door to doorers will believe it....and actually smell the smoke.
i just finished talking to my uncle for the first tim in quite a while.
he's a long time elder and in charge of setting up all of the local circuit assys.
and partially in charge of da., so he knows a lot of bro's.
(Welcome to the board tyron) back to the question;
Can't believe the elders haven't discussed the UN thing among themselves. Haven't heard of a letter from NY, but I'm sure one was sent to "advise" the BOE how to deal with the question if it comes up. Wouldn't doubt some are sweeping it under the rug by denying to know anything about it.

of jehovah's witnesses, chances are that is some-.
Well put Richard. You can't find that kind of genuine concern within the organization.
i've been thinking about the above question a lot lately!
i see so many so-called religious people being hypocritical to the religion they profess to have faith in.
they may say "hey, i'm only human", as if this excuses their behaviour.
I personally am not afraid of death, I think most people who become religious are.
i recently had a well meaning friend give the po a letter concerning me.
it was all about an incident i like to call "the picture heard around the world".
it got me to thinking about the possibilty of someone sending the elders a letter without signing their name to it.
I recently had a well meaning friend give the PO a letter concerning me. It was all about an incident I like to call "the picture heard around the world". It got me to thinking about the possibilty of someone sending the elders a letter without signing their name to it. Perhaps with the intention of "getting back" at another or being "concerned" after witnessing something. I know elders love investigations to break their boring routine. Not sure if they need a face to go with a letter before proceeding.
Has anyone heard or been stung by such letters?
i am new here and have been "lurking" for several months.
the discussions have helped me tremendously to break free from the society.
i want to thank you all for your help and heartfelt posts.
Welcome Kitten Wiskers and everyone else who have recently arrived from the WTS train to nowhere.
I've been so busy I missed you all at the "Now I can Be Happy Station."
in somalia, gunmen shot to death an italian nun, who worked in a hospital which serves mothers and children.
this came only hours after a leading cleric condemned pope benedict for his remarks on islam and violence.
some think there may be a connection.
Take the religion aspect out of it and what you get is a 65 year old woman SHOT IN THE BACK 4 times. Real tough guys aren't they.
