  hi everyone!

  was there ever an issue as to whether you were / weren't allowed to wear shoes at a group book study in someones house , so everyone had to dump their shoes at the door?.

  I had a BS in my home and I never really thought of people taking their shoes off at the door. Sometimes, while people were coming in...I had my fuzzy slippers on! Does that count? haaa

  in nyc, there's a case of a little girl who was regularly beaten and "disciplined" y her stepfather with the mother's knowlege, explaining that here 8 (?

  ) year old daughter was at times "insolent and sneaky".

  eventually, the man tortured her to death.

  This makes me sick when I read about little children being beat, molested and totured. Just wait till the stepfather, Cesar Rodriguez and the mother Nixzaliz Santiago is sent to prison...the inside will have their way with them.

  The girl's stepfather, Cesar Rodriguez, accused of binding, beating and molesting her, was arraigned Thursday on charges of second-degree murder, sex abuse and child endangerment. Her mother, Nixzaliz Santiago, was arraigned on second-degree manslaughter and child endangerment charges.

  "My website has clear quotes that enable people to study their religion and learn more about it, but the Watchtower wants people to learn about it only on their own terms. My site has been getting 10,000 visitors a month, so you could say I have been more successful in informing people about Jehovah's Witnesses than I ever was when I went round knocking on people's doors."

  With his site having hits of 10,000 a month, the WBTS is worried that JW are looking up information privately and they will lose more followers.

  Just look at the amount of people on this site who come here and they have learned information or others post articles to read.

  If this was my situation, I would just lie about everthing. Tell him that you have been really busy. Use your job, overtime, working a 2nd job....make up some excuse.

  Let them know that you have been keeping up with your studies, even though you haven't been able to make the meetings.

  While on the phone with him, act like there is another incoming call or that you just got company. Thank him for his call, concern and say good-bye as quickly as you can.

  Water fasting is beneficial for body and spirit

  by greendawn in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  right now i am doing a water fast (just drinking water, no food), and for a few days more.

  surprisingly after 48 hours i am not feeling weak or cranky, instead i feel revitalised and relaxed, free from moods and disruptive emotions.

  some doctors say it's a great way to detoxify but it is more its ability of clarifying up the spirit that motivates me.

  I fast once a year...drinking just water. I started fasting about 4 years ago and my reason is to detox. My mother died of colon cancer and I started to do some research on the benefits of fasting. It gives your organs a mini vacation and it flushes out toxins that are trapped in your cells. ( such as Medications, chemicals in processed foods and stored fat )

  Since then, my sister has tried it and she told me that her sinus problems just disappeared.
