So ashamed this morning........
by Frannie Banannie ini was at the grocery store, wheeling a cart about 1/4 full.
the desire to have some cigarettes was so overwhelming that i avoided my family members with me at the store, grabbed two packs of my favorite brand of cigarettes and hid them under the growing pile of items in my cart.. it was about that time that i woke up.
and very briefly, until i came to my senses, i felt that it was no use to even try if i was going to be so weak as to sabotage my own efforts to be strong..

MY SON WAS ATTACKED!
by Dansk inyesterday afternoon my older son, karl, who is studying musical production at brighton university, came round to see his family.
he had just been to see his pregnant girlfriend, who is staying with her mum and dad for a week.. karl is a wonderful boy; the type of son any parent would be proud of.
he is loving, considerate, respectful and has never once caused any trouble or been in any.

I would like to try and make it for one day, Saturday the 21st looks good on my calender. I live in Upstate New York, but would be willing to go on Saturday to check it out. Anyone have directions to this place coming from say Syracuse NY? I assume I would go down interstate 81 into PA somewhere. PM me.

The new breed of JWs are very weak. In the next 20 years this org is going to crack.
I agree Drew. I cant see this Org going another 50 yrs. I hope I live long enough to see it.

Just a side point on baptism. The WTS has written in many a WT and publication that Jesus is the "Model" to follow. So my question would be, Why do they allow children to get baptised? Most kids at a tender age of 6,8 or even 10 yrs old have NO idea of what they are getting into. Why in most states you cannot make any major decisions for yourself, you need parental permission. Is not marriage a major decision? Getting a drivers license? or buying liquor? Now if any youngster who ever walked the face of this planet was ever " ready " for baptism it was Jesus. How many 6,7 or 12 yr olds do you know of that can talk to Rabbi's or Priests as Jesus did at that tender age. Yet how old was he when he got baptised??? I do not recall in the scriptures any children getting baptised. I could be wrong though.
Just my 2 cents, The Claw.
