Why did you pick the name you have now
by label licker injust wondering if your name describes what you saw, how you were treated when you were "in" or now "out", maybe your personality, ect.... i'm label licker and the why i picked this name was because of all the licking up one side of elders and down the other to either be an elder or ministerial servant.
one time i was standing right in front of this brother who wasn't made an ms yet and he totally ignored me and talked right over my head speaking really loud trying to catch the co's attention.. got sick of watching the poor elderly sitting all alone or standing against the wall like a wall flower with noone to talk to and yet all these label lickers would take turns picking up the elders elderly parents and take them shopping and do their groceries at least four times a week while out in service, yet, there was noone there to take a meal to a sister who just got out of the hospital with a heart attack.
when i had shown up at her apartment with a meal she asked if i could wash her private and change her bandages.

JEHOVAH NEEDS YOUR MONEY FOR 2014!!!!!!!!
by DATA-DOG inhas anyone else recieved the letter from the gb about international conventions in 2014?
according to the letter the missionarys/order of full time servants desperately need to get to the conventions in their homeland.
so to accomplish this, jehovah needs 15 cents per publisher, per congregation for some months ( sorry i can't remember the exact length of time ).

JW booth in Flea Market @ St. Augustine Florida
by Pterist inmy wife and i took the grand kids to a flea market in st. augustine, florida today 1/19.
after sucking down some hot dogs on a bright sunny cold day, i came across a jw booth set up with the latest mags and books, offering free bible studies.
i decided not to confront them, and spoil such a nice day, however, i will be forearmed with printed material if we go back again.. shalom.

I saw a similar booth at the San Jose airport a while back. I stopped by and asked them how they could prove to me that Jesus selected them in the spring of 1919 as the only true religion. They looked at each other, shrugged and then asked "where did you hear that?"
I told them I have an aunt in the movement and she told me.
The man and woman said "Well your aunt is obviously confused and is mistaken."
"So when was your organization picked by Jesus as the only true one?" I queried back.
Their reply was "Well it was a slow and carefully planned process that cannot be nailed to a specific time or date."
Since my flight was about to board I thanked them and said I would look into it further.
It is so amazing to me that JW's either do not know about 1919 or are too embarassed or unsure to explain it. It seems to me that such a selection by Jesus should a monumental date in the history of the Society and they should be well equipped to explain it. After all, it's not everyday that Jesus stops by and says "Well done slave!, I now appoint you over all my belongings."
Apparently the only belongings they received were 3 robe garments and 2 pairs of sandals.
