  Singing out. . .

  2. friends

  were there any folks in your congregation that had really big voices, no pitch, and a tone-deaf ear?

  we had a whole family of them.

  i recall one night the wife was particularly off key--even going on past when the music stopped, getting off on the wrong line, etc.

  Still religeous?

  by John Doe in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'm curious how many here were witnesses.

  for those that were, what are your current religeous affiliations?

  i'm still evolving, but currently i consider myself to be a cross between an agnostic and a deist.

  Man's best friend.

  i'm sorry if i come across as being callous and hard folks, but i honestly believe we need to confront the uncomfortable if we are to prevent bad situations from happening.

  to console ourselves is ok as long as we're looking objectively at our situation and striving for improvement.

  care of animals is a major concern of mine, and in that light i thought i'd share with you one of my freshman essays.

  What are your goals in life that don't involve the WTS?

  by John Doe in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'm just curious.

  i know this is a wts discussion forum, but by some posts, it seems as if the wts never leaves some heads.

  also, a lot seems to be conspiracy theory.

  Would you change your past if you could?

  by John Doe in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i used to live with many regrets, thinking that i'd screwed up.

  recently, i've been thinking that regretting past actions is not constructive.

  sure, we should base our current actions by assessing the results of our former actions, but regretting decisions we've made is, in effect, yearning to change the person we are now or rejecting ourselves.
