I know a lot of Christians, not just JWs, don't feel comfortable celebrating Halloween. For me, it's just an excuse to have fun. Are there a lot of you out there who have fun on Halloween?

Why is it so hard for people to be kind ?
by oldflame inrecently i have noticed a difference in peoples attitude towards others.
i remember the day when others would open the door for you or smile when they look at you.
i remember the day when you were merging onto traffic and people would let you in.

I want to move where GaryBus lives!
I really want to get out of California when I retire. I want to live in a smaller, slower paced place that is pretty.

Physical attributes in men and women
by greendawn inthey say that in women (physical) looks are the most important factor for attracting a mate whereas for men it is other things eg personality, wealth, status, as if there are a lot more aspects to male existence.
.
so how would you choose (or did) choose a mate, eg was a woman's physical side of paramount importance or did you also weigh that seriously against character personality, culture, etc.

I want to ask you guys out there--over 40 years, if as you age--do you put less emphasis on looks? And also to you guys--I have put on a little weight although I carry it well, it makes me feel very self-conscious; how important is a woman's weight if she is attractive and takes good care of herself? Reason I am asking--I try to walk a mile every day, drink a lot of water, and eat pretty healthy, non smoker and all that--but I am fighting with the scale--is being a little overweight a turn-off? There is SO MUCH stress in the media, in magazines etc. for a woman to be thin.

In Home Elder Care
by love2Bworldly ini need help--i am researching the cost of live-in elder care-givers.
do any of you either get paid to do that for a living, or have parents that have live-in help?.
i need to know what the average cost is for an elderly person who is reasonably independent, to have a live-in person provide transportation to the doctor and basically provide general help to the household..

PROOF JESUS DIED ON A CROSS
by Mary inwarning: some might find the descriptions here disturbing.
even though there is overwhelming evidence that jesus died on a cross and not an upright state, the organization still stubbornly clings to this feeble idea, siting of course, the ridiculous notion that, because the cross was a 'pagan symbol', jesus couldn't have died on it.
as if the romans gave a damn that the cross was pagan.

love2Bworldly
Thanks for that info, definitely food for thought. I think the Society teaches the upright pole rather than the cross just so they can be different from other churches like so many of their bogus teachings.

But what if they're right............still the Truth?
by ScoobySnax inthis will probably apply to few here, but to me it'll always be that way.
it's the what if syndrome maybe, but it's always there.
i still think that as a core belief system the jw's have it right, even if their delivery isn't always right.

I'm sorry but NO WAY!!! After reading all the abuse cover-ups by the WBTS and elders etc. I would rather die at the big A than support a man-made organization that is responsible for ruining thousands of lives and families.
