  Death, is death our only destiny?

  by Blueblades in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  soon after we arrive on this earth, we become aware of the most fundamental fact of our existence, that we won't be here very long.

  an average life span lasts less than 30,000 days.

  we sleep a third of that time, so the days we experience number less than 20,000. we may try, but we can't ever completely deny our mortality.

  Why not just leave religion alone altogether?

  by dawg in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was wondering why many of you turn to to other religions after being freed from the foolishness of the jw's?

  after i relieved myself of the burden of the foolish witnesses, i was able to understand god in my own fashion and i've never felt better.

  many religions pratice mind control similar to the wittnesses so why not free yourselves from all of them?

  How do you spell "Innoculated"? Extrapolating from a misserable experiance with one member of the opposite sex that all are worthless is pretty thin logic, but then, it happens all the time. Most divorcees say they'll never marry again, but statistics betray them. carmel

  Unbled meat.

  by DJK in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  what is the (or your) definition of unbled meat as described in 1 samuel 14:32-35 where saul fed his army unbled meat.

  i would assume that his army did not travel with a herd of sheep and the meat they ate would be from the wild.. i am a hunter and when i harvest a deer, i do not hang it and cut the throat.

  i have already dressed (disemboweled) the deer and that includes removing the heart from the inside which allows a total bloodletting.. there are jdubs who hunt and it is quite obvious to game officials who they are because they will check in deer with the throat cut.

  My mother used to cook hamburger until it was nealy black to "cook the blood out". In reality, the blood wasn't cooked out, it changed color to a grey instead of red. Still blood, just in a cooked form. How silly! carmel

  I'm confused- Does it mean that I stumble someone if I drink Coffee?

  by Verona in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was reading the post from truth seeker on the april 15 wt.

  i went a little farther in the article and noticed the q& a indicating that some in the congregation may choose to abstain from cafeine.. this kind of reminds me of the hotdog incident, back in the 60's when we wouldn't be allowed to eat a hotdog because it offended some brothers and sisters with weaker consciences (they believed that hot dog weiners had blood in them).

  so we became closet hotdog eaters for awhile.

  I remember in Jr. high when I turned out for basketball and was so clumbsy I stumbled over the painted lines on the court. Anyone "stumbled" by the behavior of others is too spiritually clumbsy to be of concern. Like dead wood, fit for the fire! wow, I coined a new use for "spiritual".... goofus

  If you're not being simply rhetorical, you might try sending for Hatcher's monogram. <www.minimalism.juxta.com>
