  the elders frown upon chewing gum at the kingdom hall and we have had a locals needs part where it was mentioned.

  is/was chewing gum at your hall a no-no?

  YUP! Attendants would be on the look out and tap people on the shoulder and tell them to spit or swallow. Something about it being the long lost 11th commandment. and of course, big no-no at the assemblies.

  Looks like I'm selling my XBOX to put $$ towards a 360. The system looks awesome. But I recommend springing for the $400 model. It comes with the hard drive, wireless controllers and the hi-def cable. well worth it. Can't wait for HALO3!!

  Negative JW's

  by pc in

  it's funny to me to notice, for the most part jw's are such negative people.

  when i speak with my dad or brother who are staunch jw's the glass is always half empty.

  everything is depressing.

  Negative?....let's explore, we live on a Earth ruled by Satan, everyone will be killed when the end comes (even people we like), who knows when the end will come, have a sucky job with little or no money because they never went to college, have to go to 5 meetings a week, have to wake up early on weekends to knock on stranger's doors, ....I don't see any reasons to be negative!!

  S-77 disfellowshipping form

  by IT Support in

  in a post a couple of months ago, i copied a scan of the form a judicial committee uses to notify the society that someone has been disfellowshipped or disassociated.

  this form was issued in july 2001.

  has this form been revised since then?

  I like the very last line on the form...." DO NOT KEEP A COPY OF THIS FORM"

  Sounds like someones a little afraid of legal actions!

  Odrade, Mormons use the label "apostate" as well. But the Mormons almost perfectly parallel the JW's, it's almost uncanny.

  It would be interesting to hear from any current elders out there what is going on with this. Nowadays elders are getting younger and younger, I even know of a CO in his mid-30's. So any actions against internet sites that contain info like that would not surprise me at all. Not solely due to ages but to the levels of control and trying to keep control.

  Profits profits profits

  by wanderlustguy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in business profit isn't a dollar amount at least not the way most people view it.

  profitability is based on percentage of revenue and not how much money is in the bank.

  yes, one has a lot to do with another however it is all percentages.. of course i'm talking about oil comanies, because they are being questioned about their profits.

  And a little more on oil profits. One very important concept the media does not mention is the bulk of where the profits came from. It came from what's called "inventory profit." Oil companies keep a massive amount of crude oil in stock for future manufacturing. Over the past few months oil price per barrel spiked, a couple times. This affected the worth of the inventories making them of more value which translates into........profit on the books.

  if any of you feel like praying and having your prayers heard and answered, feel free to send a prayer to me at [email protected].

  i hear all prayers, and answer all prayers.

  i will try to fulfill those within my powers, but i will be honest with you homo sapiens and say that i will not be able to fulfill all of them.
