my good friend told me the bookstudy would be back on if petrol prices drop!!!!
of course this never effected those witnesses who were too poor to own a car....who crossed crocodile infested rivers...got malaria....attacked by bandits just to make it to the bookstudy....."daddy we lost little johnny in the river!
" {dad} - "is the new world translation still dry?
The book study has had the lowest attentance of all the meetings for a long time, and no matter what the WTS said about the importance of attending ALL the meetings, most of the Bro's are getting tired of so many meetings. It would be nice to keep the book study and remove the TMS/Service meeting, but that's not possible so the book study has to go to lower the burdan on the Bro's.
Thats my feelings...

I can't believe you guys could think so stupid !
we all have dreams - some of us see those dreams to fruition.. my constant dream/desire is to have a little bit of land in the country somewhere, with a cow (bell around her neck and all), some chickens running around, a veggie patch, a herb patch.
a safe home.
friends popping in.. a very simple dream..
My dream is to be surrounded by beautiful naked women....
while cruising the internet tonight i came across something from everybody's favorite watchtower whistle blower and i'm surprised that you all didn't tell me that everyone here really is one of jehovah's witnesses in disguise!.

Too much Hate. He is only distroying himself.
very often the society will write in their magazines that divorce and family breakdown are on the increase in the world.. in my congregation, there have rbeen two recent cases of adultery.
in both cases, the brothers were elders and their wives were regular pioneers.. from my observations and those of others on this forum it would seem that divorce and extramarital affairs are on the increase in the organization.. it's also true that we're all human and make mistakes - but if you're serving jehovah whole souled and putting him first, how is it these things happen?.
Yes it is on the increase, i would even say there is little difference now between the JW and "the world" in marriage problems..
why do men die first?
this is a question that has gone unanswered for centuries, but, now we know.
it requires a bit of explanation!!.

If you put a woman on a pedestal and try to protect her from the rat race ... you're a male chauvinist. If you stay home and do the housework ... you're a pansy. If you work too hard ... there's never any time for her. If you don't work enough ... you're a good-for-nothing bum. If she has a boring repetitive job with low pay ... this is exploitation. If you have a boring repetitive job with low pay ... you should get off your lazy behind and find something better. If you get a promotion ahead of her ... that is favouritism. If she gets a job ahead of you ... its equal opportunity.
If you mention how nice she looks ... its sexual harassment. If you keep quiet ... its male indifference. If you cry, you're a wimp. If you don't ... you're an insensitive bastard. If you make a decision without consulting her ... you're a chauvinist.
If she makes a decision without consulting you ... she's a liberated woman. If you ask her to do something she doesn't enjoy ... that's domination. If SHE asks you ... it's a favour. If you appreciate the female form and frilly underwear ... you're a pervert. If you don't ... you're gay.
If you like a woman to shave her legs and keep in shape ... you're sexist. If you don't ... you're unromantic. If you try to keep yourself in shape ... you're vain. If you don't ... you're a slob. If you buy her flowers ... you're after something. If you don't ... you're not thoughtful. If you're proud of your achievements ... you're full of yourself. If you don't ... you're not ambitious. If she has a headache . she's tired. If you have a headache ... you don't love her anymore.
Why do men die first ? Because they want to.
why is it that if the ac is on 71% it feels too cold, but if the heater is on 71% it's warm and toasty?.

Its one of the great mysteries of the universe, its rattled many great minds. Personally I don’t give a sh*t
I did know one that I could call a Jezebel. She was an elder' s wife and she really did manipulate them, so was not a nice woman. A real trouble maker, she used to consel everyone, tell them how and when to count their time, etc..etc......everyone was afraid of her, except me. She wasn't young and she even got the Elder to take off 10 years from her age on her Publisher Card, I noticed this was I was the secretary's assitant, and I corrected her card and wrote her true age. What a Cow !!!
whats the latest on the pioneer hours changing?
nothing seems to be happy on the jw world.
my elder friend thinks im wrong about this.
What’s the latest on the pioneer hours changing? Nothing seems to be happy on the JW world. My Elder friend thinks I’m wrong about this. And the new tract will be released in a few weeks. anyone have any real news???
Interesting to note is that I’ve heard other ‘brothers’ claim that they also heard that the pioneer hours are going to be lower, making me think that a lot of JW’s read these "apostate" websites.
i went to a buddhist retreat & spent a weekend meditating, learning to be quiet & practice the 'art' of being.
it's difficult to describe 'being', in a way it is total acceptance of all that is & is not in this very moment.
all in all it was a great experience & i'm going back again.
Sounds like a lot of Bull to me, but if it makes one happy, and your not hurting others then why not.
