other people have ghosts and goblins and fairy godmothers.. jw's have demons.. demonized chairs, forks, pictures, pages from books, dolls, etc.
etc.. the most aggravating demon related thing my mother ever did was throw away my fantastic of collection of toys from around the world.
i was about 10 and joined something called the kid's explorer's club.
My half sister bought a huge house which she turned into a B&B, she made the ground floor into a flat for her oldest daughter to live in, the rest of the family moved into rooms above the B&B and then she rented her house out to a couple of witnesses, a nice little income coming in, but she got depressed around the same time, so she believed the B&B was demonised, sold it and moved herself and 5 kids back to her bungalow, ofcourse not much of an income anymore.
Crazy!
any interesting threats your parents would use on you.. my mom always said, remember there's an eye watchin' you.
and when i would say something about a brother or sister or the society or something offbeat in general.
she would say the she bears were going to eat me.. well she was close on the last one.
She was going to put me in a childrens home and then adopt new children.

Boiled egg and soldiers is boiled egg with toast cut into 3 strips, its usually a kids breakfast meal. Thanks for the tip about vitamin B, I will get some supplements.
has anyone else ever noticed this in the kh?
married couples don't seem to show any affection to each other.
however, when a couple is dating, they will hold hands.
I've never noticed this, but it can't be healthy getting to spend that little time together ( oh actually, it could have its benefits).

Boiled egg and soldiers, not very interesting but about all I can keep down with this morning sickness.
.
what would be the main reasons why the witnesses think that they alone have the truth?
.
I'll tell you why I thought so, for the second time round as a 16 year old.
The sister I studied with was very enthusiastic, she was a lovely person too and everyone else in the congregation seemed great too.
Instead of researching and questining I just believed, 5 minutes of her tales would leave me excited, praying frantically thanking Jehovah for what I had learned.
I was young and naive.
do you believe god used men to write his thoughts?
I really don't know.
Can I just ask you another question, I have always wondered about this but never really knew who to ask.
Is there any evidence that prophecies were written before the event? Or could they have been written afterwards and made out to be older than what they are?
telepathy is the direct transmission of thoughts and feelings from one person to another without the medium of the physical senses and it is a natural part of human life, and most likely the process through which also spirit beings including god communicate with humans though in their case they can transmit ideas and feelings more powerfully.
did you ever experience this process eg you suddenly begin to think intensely about a person and soon that person phones or turns up where you are.
this can happen often over time and it can't be due to coincidence.
Oh, another instance.
A few years ago I met my current partner, I didn't know him very well, had only spoken to him a couple of times but he was a friend of my younger brother.
I was at work one afternoon when I suddenly and for no reason decided to walk out and go home early, I should've been there till 10pm.
So I was sitting at home with my JW mum watching TV and someone knocked on the door, straight away I knew it was my brother and he had Gaz (my partner) with him.
I had no reason to know this, my brother rarely visited in the evening and Gaz had never visited before, but I knew it was them.

When I was really young, about 10, I was looking out of my bedroom window at a boy walking up my street, he had his back to me the whole time, then he just stopped, turned around and looked directly at my window, he must have sensed me watching, is this telepathy?
Also, many times I have gone to pick up my phone without thinking, and just as I touch it someone phones, this has happened with various people and too many times to be a coincidence.
Sometimes I'll be thinking about someone or something and my 3 year old daughter will then say their name or talk about the thing I'm thinking, this is with stuff that isn't obvious, its not like something around us has triggered us to think of someone.
would u let your daughter/son date a baptist boy/girl?
if no, why not?
When my children are old enough to date they can date whoever they want, I will encourage them not to go for anyone too rough but its their choice and nothing to do with me.
