NAME JUST ONE thing....ONE THING...revealed by God....

by Terry in

somebody is always insisting they have an invisible and mysterious source of divine information and selling it like hotcakes and syrup.

but, why are you still buying?

when will you ever learn that this is a scam among many scams.

ICBehindtheCurtain

Terry thank you for this post, it really is very interesting! I am with Mary, in that I do believe in a Creative force of some sort, which started everything, put it in motion. I do not however believe in the bible god, after researching the bible with an open mind, the once cherished notion of inerrancy and revelation just falls apart. I don't believe that there is a almighty God who is directing and monitoring all activities here on earth (look at the crap that goes on), or that he needs our worship, I think we are here to live this experience and make with it what we will, I try to focus on the positive as much as I can, enjoy this experience and leave this earth in a better way than I found it. There are things we will never know, but I choose to use my own reasoning to dictate what I will and will not believe, but that's just me!

WHY the JWD SITE IS VITALLY IMPORTANT!!

by Seeker4 in

jw
friends

this discussion board is vitally important now, and will become even more important in the coming years.

lots of reasons, but here's just one from my own experience: .

for many years i was a super zealous, firm believing jw.

ICBehindtheCurtain

I also agree that this site is extremely important!! When I started opening my eyes, I first found e-watchman's site, it helped me to begin questioning the Borg...but I didn't stop there, before long I found JWD and although it was scary in the beginning, I kept lurking and reading and researching....and eventually the blinders came off! I don't post as much anymore but always check up on what's going on here and have referred quite a few that are now lurkers and some members on here....soooo it really is a valuable tool to help these poor people open their eyes and join the real world, THANK YOU ALL!!!!!!!

Love,

This is great!!! thanks for posting it Dansk. Imagine how many Billions will be lost by the big pharmaceutical companies if stem cells solve these health issues for people, no more organ rejection drugs, diabetes drugs and all the organizations that exist around all the major diseases like Cancer, heart disease etc. that's the reason Bush and his cronies don't want stem cell research!

Assembly Hall shakedown - Columbia SC

by sir82 in

jw
friends

from someone who attended:.

there was a big elders meeting in columbia sc on saturday june 9.. around 240 congregations, 2000+ elders.. the society wants to build a brand new assembly hall in columbia, sc, to handle the huge influx of jws moving to the us southeast from up north.. they expect to have it done in 34 months (finished by april 2010).

total cost estimated to be approximately $8 - 9 million.. they want to have the whole thing paid for by the time the building is done - no long term loans.. they "strongly suggested" that each of the 240 congregations commit to supporting "their share" of the expense.

ICBehindtheCurtain

The organization has also agreed to meet here in 2008 and 2009, he said, and tentatively agreed to hold their sessions here from 2010 through 2013. The number of sessions may swell to four annually, Purvis quoted congregation officials as saying.

Good one Danny, I guess the BS about the end being so close is just BS, since they have this place booked till 2013, what, weren't they saying last year with all the different campaigns that the end was imminent and now this? I think I will email this to some people. Thanks for sharing Danny!

Isn't God Awesome?

ICBehindtheCurtain

Perry, thank you for sharing that, it was very inspiring! We all live in this world yet, each one sees differently, some choose focus on what is ugly and negative, and yes sometimes those things are inescapable, BUT when there is an opportunity to see the grandness and beauty of this world we should take it in and live that moment, this way when life is not so pretty we can close our eyes and relive the beauty and gather ourselves and keep going!

Thank you for sharing,

our dear mouthy is really having a tough time right now and needs our support and/or prayers.

as some of you may know, she's already lost 3 of her children in death and the other one to the borg.

in the last couple of days, she's had to worry about her 2 year old great-granddaughter being in the hospital with an illness and yesterday, her daughter had a suspicious mole removed from her back and was told there is a lump in her breast which has to be biopsied.

(((((((((((((Grace))))))))))))))) I hope everything turns out well, you are in our thoughts,
