Its a great display of how great humanity can be. More heroes in the world than disgusting cowards with no respect for life. Great work to all involved in rescue and help etc.

Tribute to London Emergency Services
by diamondblue1974 in.
i have watched with sheer amazement all day the work of the emergency services; their sheer dedication and professionalism and skill will no doubt prevent & reduce the further prospect of fatalities....i think they deserve a huge round of applause...if ever i have had opportunity to be patriotic it is now.... what do you think?.

Could the European Union be the new "king Of the North" ready to do battle with "Opec" the new king of the south? And what I liked about "relegion falling" was that only the JWs would stand out and be noticed, even when all else is banned. Hello guys, what muslims are'nt devout? Hindu's are just going to give it all away? And as for the pope, well I'm just glad, that such loyal, humble, and worthy people are going to live forever in paradise.

Recycling: Not for True Christains
by jeanniebeanz inso, i'm sitting here sorting out my recycling since tomorrow is trash day, and i remembered something that happened years ago that gave me a chuckle.. it was a sunday botchtower study and the topic was things that we should be doing to prepare for life in the new system.
even as a child, i didn't answer from the magazine and they never knew just what i was going to say; they would usually not let me hold the mic myself just for that reason... .
i had been learning about recycling to preserve our natural resources in school (6th grade, i was 10) and had my comment ready to go:.

I now know what it feels like.
by Es inhey all i used to read posts where people have found out they have lost loved ones and were never told about it nor the funeral.
last week my mum called me up and said "by the way sister such and such passed away last week the memorial was yesterday"!!!!
i used to be close to this sister and for those from australia might even had known her or heard of her sister isabelle sewell married to ted sewell, they have been living in bethel for over 10 years now.

Their understanding of death is almost a denial that it exists. "They are only sleeping, soon to awake" So why should anyone get too upset, let alone tell "non believers" of such tragic events. Just make sure you dont let it stop you grieving for someone you'll miss. All the best.

Is College now wrong for Jehovah's Witnesses again?
by booker-t ini have been out of the jw's for many years now but i still have devout jw's family members.
and i am attending college now at 40 yrs old working on my ba degree.
i was so happy a few years ago when my jw mom told me that the wt is slacking off on telling jw's teenagers that college is bad and it is ok to attend college and universities.

A big problem for JW's in the UK?
by Jim Dee infrom the sky news web site - 23.06.05giving the cold shoulderdoorstep salesmen who cold-call are to be targeted with the launch of a new scheme banning them from certain areas.
residents who feel harassed by their tactics will work with police to create no-entry zones for them under a plan by the trading standards institute.. .
the no-go zones could cover anything from a street to an entire estate and will also help combat so-called "distraction burglaries", which have been linked to cold-calling.. persistent doorstep sellers would then be reported to the authorities for follow-up action.. ron gainsford, chief executive of the institute, said: "people are sick and tired of uninvited doorstep callers.

If in any way this may be bought to apply to their "preaching" work, it would only convince them that the end is now closer than ever. They will fire up with "zeal" and be ready for the barrage of abuse, and all with a smile on their face.

Women ??? Are they moving up ???
by run dont walk inatteneded a catholic wedding on the weekend, it was strange, but nice, i don't know much of the catholic beliefs, talk was about an hour including hymns and songs and prayers, overall i thought it was well done.. one thing that caught my attention, the pastor giving the talk stepped down several times, and sat off to the side, as some women, read scriptures and talked to the audience (they were not nuns, all dressed as you would to go to a wedding), i was pleasantly surprised, i mean they had the whole stage and talked quite effectively, the pastor was very humble and praised the women for the job they did.
are times changing in the religions ????.
we all know this would never happen at the kingom hall.

I think there is a money spinner here for theWTBTS. Since sisters have to wear a "head covering" if no brother is present to say a prayer in a group, why not broaden there scope of service if they wear the patented " Sister Head Garment", or the SHG. The SHG can come in a leather look deluxe model, or conventional porper model. Of course no sale is actually involved but the "recommened voluntry donation" price could be extremly profitable.

Not sure of any new, dates, but "when they cry peace and security", oops i mean, " when you hear reports of these things", no thats not the one i was thinking of its:"As a thief in the night no one knows the day or the hour". Hang on i m sure i forgort "when the good news is peached in all the earth then the end will come", you know what with the sky turning"blood red" and the "sun and the moon, not giving light any more" I m pretty sure all bases are covered for at least another 100 years or so. By the way what the sequence of events again?
