  My most favorite commercial ever...

  by kittyeatzjdubs in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'm normally a somewhat cynical person and tend to be annoyed by commercials....but the first time i saw this commercial, i dropped what i was doing and had to watch it.

  then i had to get on the internet and find the extended version.

  i don't know if it's the music, the color, or just the beauty of it all combined, but this is the only commercial that can bring tears to my eyes everytime i watch it.. oh....and the song is ''heartbeats'' by jose gonzales.

  Try a few 'finger ' exercises of your own!!!

  by Gill in

  2. beliefs

  do you remember the talks about meeting attendance?.

  the meetings were likened to the five fingers of the hand.

  with these five fingers, a person was able to grip their spirituality, represented by the brother giving the talk holding his bible firmly and it would be a good sign of their spiritual strength therefore that they attended all five meetings.. however, if one meeting was missed, the grip on the bible/spirituality would be weaker.

  Over eating yes, smoking no...why?

  by Justice-One in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  why does the society hate smoking so much?

  because it is "defiling" the body?

  if that is the case, what about drinking coffee, or over-eating?

  hey, this is under jokes and humor, so don't get too offended.

  i just wanted to vent about how people say things incorrectly, such as pronouncing things wrong or saying phrases wrong.

  i'll start, and if you have any to add, please feel free.

  An Overdue Return

  by Roger in

  2. friends

  dear all,.

  hi, i'm roger, and it's been about two years since i posted on here, though i've kept an eye on the forum to keep up with the zeitgeist.

  i've been reading a lot recently, and have felt i'd like to add some points of my own, but when it's been so long i felt it difficult before making some kind of apology for my absence.

  Socially Stunted?...you betcha.

  by Lumptard in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  my apologies if this has been done to death, but i was just curious how many of you feel that you have been socially crippled as a result of your association with the jws?

  granted, this probably affects people who were raised as jws more than those who chose for themselves, but i just wanted to see if anyone else has had the same experience...also, how did you work through it if you were able to?

  What will they do when the blood ban has no meaning ?

  by A Paduan in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  people will invent ways of making blood, eventually, no doubt.

  they will probably have synthetic substitutes for the short term and be able to grow or clone it off our own dna or something before too long.

  so what will the org do for martyrs and publicity then ?
