just curious - it seems like there are quite a few ex-elders around the site....how many are you?
i enjoy reading stories from the inside...
i wasnt an elder.. i didnt have the requirements.... ( a penis)
LMAO!!! hahahahaha! May I ask, what do elders do? And as previous elders did you guys notice and tried to cover up any errors or disfellowshipped anyone? and would you ever let a woman do a speech or play a role in a drama act? Evanescence
"Don't worry Simon i'll be back! under a different name and e-mail address MHA HA HA HA HA!!!!!"
Or
"I'll be re-incarnated into Simons new password be very very afraid!"
Na dunno if that sounds like minimus or not

Hello everyone!
It's my birthday today!!! woohoo! yay i'm finally 15!!!!!!
Evanescence
so, i was thinkin, and got hit with a good idea.
everyone whos been here for more than a week has posters that they love, and posters that they loathe.
some make laugh, some make us cry, and some drive us right up the wall.... so to honor that, i think we should have some sort of jwd award session... (should simon approve).
I like the idea but we goo be careful of "labling" or offending other posters. Like if one was titled "most off the topic poster" they might get a bit upset. I think more positive and funny would be good but no negatives that would get people upset.

ok, i usually dont give presents but this chick sang to me at school on my bday.
so i think i'll just sing for her.
now i have 2 ideas: .
Number 2!!!
Evanescence
haha, are they desperate for sex or a relationship?
because if it is like that, hell i see something here.
today, when i was out in field service, this chick kept playing with my hair all day, then at the restaurant she was feeling up all over me.
Women in the jw religion probebly feel repressed I don't know if this is true or not, but women don't really have a great position.
So the poor girl probebly was in need for 'pleasure'
I dunno really just a thought

ok i'm back!!
looking over the past few days, i see the esteemed farks has appeared out of the mists of time and readan_connor too and........ well ain't it nice to know that old friends are still 'there'.. so how's it been for you?
need a smile?.
maybe some other form of expressing your faith. arts, singing, having fun, etc.
You'll be surprised artwork can sometimes mean more than a thousand words.
Also music expresses so much! the meaningful lyrics the melody the tune! music expresses so much if done by a good artist. (otherwise it could be pain to the ears lol)

Yes getting good speakers would help!
If you have a person who doesn't speak loudly, clearly and with emphasism things can get quite boring! and please no robotic voices!!!!!!
A person Mumbling the words or speaking in a flat tone for a long time is soooooooooooooooooooo boring!
Honestly yes get women to prepare the meetings women like me! I'll add a bit of interest like movies (related to the topic of speech) slide shows! music! looots of music!!!!! oh and a lot of plays and drama! even live bands!!! yay! Maybe even poetry or mini activities! ya know add a bit more lively energy to it all! and an Intuishin (arr can't spell!) ya know a break half way through the meeting so people can get some fresh air and stretch their legs (it would really benefit the children) give them something to look forward to!

7. Allow the sisters to give the talks.
WHAAAAT??????
women weren't allowed to talk!
If I was ever a speaker I would yak and yak and yak and yak and yak........ lol! I love public speaking!
I'm annoyed! I wanted to march over to the kingdom hall and give them a speech all right! trust me I can talk for the whole 2 and a half hours If I wanted to!
Evanescence *Give me coffee with a load of sugar/red bull/ V or red soft drink and I'll talk twice as long!*
correct me if i am wrong but was the prodigal son required to prove he was repentant before he was accepted back into the family?
My interpretation of the Prodical son is,
It shows that when you sin God is willing to forgive and will welcome you with open arms. He is also glad when one is lost but now he/she is found! So whenever we turn away from god, like the son did to his father, God is willing to forgive. They had a party that night when the son returned.
So its simply a parable on God's forgiveness the parable of the 99 sheep and the 1 sheep that strayed away has a similar meaning to this parable.
I don't quite understand the Watchtowers interpretation...
