yep there are such places.
the entire congregation does not go out door to door as such.
i know of such places in spain where there are congs made up of english speaking dubs who don't go out in the typical ministry.
Brilliant - where do I sign up 
No ministry as such, plus I'll fake ME and then have no real work to do because of low energy, plus I'll get State Benefit. Hmmm..... I'll spend my *well hours* helping the elderly in the congregation, having spiritual chats and cake.
Quite like the sound of that lifestyle.
Bye!
i read crisis of c, now what?
actually doesn't have to be about the dubs - i think i may over-load on dub-doom if i read anymore witness business.
anyone recommend something else.
when i left the religion, i walked away and did not get df'ed or da myself.
in doing so, my wife left the religion at the same time.
in our life we have been very nonwitness in our life.
I am in this position as well and happy to be so. This is means that my one contact in *the truth* will still talk with me and in that way I get to see him still. He is a good and reasonable chap and I know that he wavers on many points that the society teaches, so in my own small way, I like to think I help keep his feet on the ground about spiritual matters.
He also suffers from depression and without my support, I know he would be in a right state!
So for me, I'm happy to be in the shadows.
which parts of blood are dubs allowed?.
or should i ask which bit isn't allow?
isn't there only one ingredient they aren't allowed now?.
Just don't worry about it .... its not even an issue anymore and does get incredibly boring.
There is nothing sacred about blood as a substance. The society is twisted in its views.
There are far more important issues to tackle. I think the blood debate is stale. It is a matter of personal choice. Full stop !
stop the rush to war
most americans agree that iraqs longtime dictator, saddam hussein, is a sadistic thug.
despite this, white house calls for a massive, preemptive invasion of iraq are dangerously misguided, and not in tune with americans current priorities.

Graphic design & general artwork - something I dropped for a few years when studying and preaching.
Music - rediscovering sounds that I banned myself from hearing .... fool that I was.
Video gaming - exploring digital entertainment (another hobby I dropped like a hot potato) .... Mario Sunshine, I await thee
wow... i was stunned when i saw this.
if you're a unreal tournament fan, you'll love ut2003!
early demo!.
i came across this clip from an assembly where a co 'reasons' with the audience on whether christians should wear beards 'in this time of the end'.
while not containing any reasoning at all it could also be concluded from this clip that the wbts doesn't like you to wear sandals either.
oh, and jesus was a cross dresser.
Placing importance upon outward appearance over the inner heart condition is their problem, not Gods. Its an example of petty control that makes no sense at all.
Anyway, I've got a beard and I have a pair of sandals in the cupboard. Mind you, the local kids down my street did shout after me one day - "LOOK ITS JEEZUS" - Very embarrassing!!
i am in need of direction ..... where do i find a decent archive of samples on the net?
i am looking for guitar chops, and brass sections to leach, in .wav format.. any ideas ?.
i have been browsing around, but have unearthed very little of quality.
that latest insert is an insult to freedom of speech between humans.. proverbs 12:11. gideon - holy bible.
he who works his land will have abundant food, but he who chases fantasies lacks judgement.. now apply that to mindless jws who follow every law that the faithful & discreet slave issue.
rules that have morphed and changed shape through the years, rules that could be described as fantasy ( collins dictionary: imagination or fancy; esp., wild, visionary fancy ).. are they suggesting that their own flock lack judgement ?
