Do you know any dubs that goes to Las Vegas for Vacation?

as we all know that las vegas is about gambling, but not everything is about gambling in las vegas, is there a way for the dubs to enjoy their vacation in las vegas without gambling?.

Entertainment capital of the world, Nascar races, the big rodeo once a year, Area 51 --- trying to think of what's not already been mentioned.

Vegas has more five star restaurants than any other place in the world along with famous chefs such as Wolfgang, Emeril, Bobby Faye --- many others who have leading (not 5 star) restaurants on strip and was rated no. 2 in the world for shopping following Rome. Heard there's some incredible room rates available on the strip these days and there's some unbelievable buffets (a/k/a stuff-its) and delis, bakeries, etc., in the hotels. Probably the best prices available on planet earth for real estate right now. Many people are picking up 2nd homes at rock bottom prices. used to have more morman wards than any other place in the world. cleveland clinic was considering opening in vegas.

and of course, i had some fun with them... an older, brunette woman who obviously dyes her hair and could stand to lose a bit of weight, and a slim blonde teenage girl - probably around 15 - 17.... i started out by asking them if they knew how old the bible was.... .

(and unfortunately, i think i demonstrated that i wouldn't make a very good "undercover" bible study prospect... .

but they didn't even know how old - young - the bible was!!.

OK ZID (CAN'T wait to be shot down here by you knowledgeable, history buffs) but you referenced to the two witnesses something that happened thousands of yrs. (or hundreds of yrs. before Christ) from some society's history based on someone trying to translate a bunch of rocks, whatever, and it happens to parallel accounts of Jesus (what a coincidence) and just how do you know it's true --- it cannot be proved as science or fact. it's still translation.

wish someone would address and counter your statements to the witnesses --- someone who BELIEVES in christianity. HELP!!!!!!

would appreciate the learned bible scholars (JW's or believers in God/Jesus) on board refuting/objecting to ZID's comments with the two witnesses at her door today. thanks

QUESTION re/Best of Topics

by LV101 in

jw
friends

is leolaia under best of topics or do i have to read thru all the posts referenced under her name which would be quite time consuming.

i can't find her name under the best of topics section.

thanks..

LV101

ahhh, thank you all. thought my computer skills were lacking when i couldn't find her on the Best of Topics and i was rushing thru some various posts and limited for time. in the meantime i'll use the google method and her posts under her name.

thanks, Zid, for your info off your post re/ the two witnesses at your door today. the younger witness is fortunate to have received the great info from you and referring me to leolaia's info -- can't wait to find it when i have time. i'd heard or read probably on this board about earlier gods paralleling jehovah/ YWHW and Jesus but never gave it much thought. looks like i have some serious reading ahead of me and it's one crazy, busy, summer.

Do You Have ABANDONMENT ISSUES?

by sizemik in

jw
friends

through being "kept busy", jw parents can become emotionally distanced from their children, thus creating abandonment issues which manifest themselves later in adult life.

have a read of the following article .

i have highlighted some critical comments which may be applicable to being raised as a jw.. have you been affected by abandonment issues?.

LV101

i think a human's biggest fears are abandonment and rejection. this is a great subject to start thread on. Yes, think i do have abandonment issues. narcissistic mother who was there but not really there --- not a mother in any sense of the word and refused to be a mother and would have ran away (which she did in later yrs.) if she'd had the opportunity. was so upset when giving birth to my younger sister she couldn't even take care of her. thank goodness i had grandmother i could run to.

some victims of abandonment put up with much abuse to prove they are lovable and pay heavily (financially, emotionally) to insure they can hang onto others and they won't run out on them. many are proving to themselves they can be lovingly mothered and become co-dependent.

yeah, i heard the same thing about the army and something to do with hurricane andrew/florida. i don't believe it.

bethelites have told me that every single thing they do is checked by 5 other forced laborers following behind them. they are still humans no matter they think they're slaving for a fantasy retirement package.

I SWEAR THAT'S WHEN I MOVE TO ANOTHER COUNTRY. amarillo is desperate. witnesses are the worse animals i've ever been around. hard to believe they are instructed to have all that fear of God. sorry, i'm sure i shouldn't be judging and i really should pay heed to that but i can't help it.
