  What Can You Say to Jehovah's Witnesses Lame Excuses ?

  by flipper in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i noticed jg nat started a thread kind of similar, but dealing with elders .

  my wife helped me come up with this thread with some good ideas here.

  there are a few gems that witnesses use as excuses, phraseology they use to make excuses for their beliefs.

  They are imperfect men and they make mistakes?

  In the past my reply has been then why are they the only ones allowed to make mistakes. The catholic church has imperfect men that make mistakes, the baptist church has imperfect men that make mistakes, etc. Why not the same allowances for all imperfect men?

  One time someone said, "Well, that is true but they are the only imperfect men that use Jehovahs name." My reply, the bible didn't lay that as a criteria for being his chosen religion. Then, the circular reasoning comes out.

  My dad, Uninformed, was speaking to a witness a couple weeks ago and he was discussing with her why they were dfed. She said that he just took it too seriously. My parents just believed it too much. He told her that wasn't this our eternal life that we are dealing with and she said that it didn't really matter and that you can do what you want.

  There really isn't any reasoning with them.

  Momzcrazy had my favorite suggestion. Wearing somthing to bed that your husband likes is always nice and it makes you feel pretty to boot.

  I am a woman and my husband is always getting onto me becuase I run the car until nearly empty. I think it is just plumb lazy. You get going and don't want to stop until you have to.

  Accidentally Hit Animals with Cars ? A Problem in Rural areas-Experiences?

  so, hello folks.

  i have wanted to start this thread for sometime because i was curious if it has happened to any of you often.

  in the last 10 years or so it seemed that deer were attracted to my trucks like magnets .

  Once, when I was about 18, with a group of people out in service, I decided to play around like I was going to hit this squirrel and then the squirrel ran back and I ended up hitting it.

  I felt really terrible and everyone looked at me like I was a jerk. I really felt like one.

  The other day, my husband was driving down a curvy coutry road about dusk and a beaver ran out before he could do anything about it and he hit it. He felt real bad, we live in Texas and don't see many beavers out here.

  Also, about seven years ago, while driving in New Mexico at night, I hit a coyote. It was depressing. Nothing that we have ever hit has done any damage to our vehicles. The only good thing is that at least the animals were killed instantly.

  Way to go purps. I started weight watchers (again), right before thanks giving. Awful timing.

  Hope you are successful and lose all that you want. My goal is to lose so much weight that

  people say, "you are too skinny, you should eat more". Kind of doubt that will happen but it is fun to think about.

  Personally, I would like to sue the Society for my weight. It was all those years of pioneering, sitting in a car thinking I was better

  than everyone else, while drinking 140 ounces of Dr. Pepper a day, not to mention all the visits to Sonic, McDonalds,

  Donut shops, etc.

  Keep us posted. Maybe we could get a little competition going here on JWD?
