i was raking my leaves when he came by- nice sunny day,too.
he had only 5 years in the org, so the discussion didn't go too well for him.
i told him i had already seen the tract - a friend showed it to me.

i was able to find another group of jw's doing the big tract this morning.
i found it hard to get the 50'ish something lady to stop and talk to me, she was in such a hurry to get her 50 tracts done for the day.
no bookbag, no bible- just a vinyl folder with tracts.
Right on Moshe.

i'll admit that for as far back as i can remember, i've picked up little crushes on celebrities.
i think one of my first crushes was on olivia newton-john after seeing her in grease at 5 years old and later in xanadu.. i've had crushes on:.
jennifer connelly (labrynth)gwyneth paltrow (hook briefly and later emma)cate blanchett (elizabeth, pushing tin)meredith salenger (the journey of natty gann, but especially, especially, in dream a little dream)kate beckingsale (much ado about nothing, cold comfort farm (not underworld, though she's smokin' in that.
Valarie Bertinelli ( from One day at a time ) She was and is still HOT !!!!!!

there is more the the story of russell and the pyramids than has been told.. russell came up with his chronology before he became interested in the great pyramid, and attempted to use the pyramid measurements to collaborate his chronology!.
he obtained the necessary internal "measurements" he required from a diagram of the pyramid included in the book by charles piazzi smyth!.
needless to say, the numbers obtained from such "measurements" were not accurate enough to be used in any prophetic calculations, so the source of these numbers was "obscured".. an attempt to indirectly "validate" the use of these numbers in russell's book, thy kingdom come was made by publishing within the book a kind letter written by charles smyth himself for the prepublication copy that was sent to him.. this was all an attempt to obscure the shaky foundation of the whole matter.. it was deliberately done, and shows that intellectual honesty was not a primary concern of charles t. russell.. now if he didn't actually write the pyramid chapter in his book, that might make matters different, although as the listed author he still had the responsibility of maintaining the accuracy and integrity of the contents of the book.. here is an interesting article about how the pyramid's measurements actually were changed when the 1910 edition of the thy kingdom come was published.. http://www.neirr.org/pyramidscheme.htm.
I just find it so fascinating, all the stuff I've learned about the Witnesses since I left!

i wish i got this book years ago.
ray franz is so loving and kind and he just is so strong i am to pg 100 now.
help me understand the mess that went on in ny i need to order the next book by him.
I read COC in a couple of days. "In Search of Christian Freedom" was very good as well. What made the difference for me was the Mexico/Malawi double standard. To date NO witness has been able to explain it. I had my PO say he was going to come over with the CO and talk about it. They NEVER showed up. My own sister said she would look into it. NEVER got back to me. A former elder said he would look into it. NEVER got back to me. And this was all before I DA'd myself. That's got to tell you something right there.

i consider myself to be an extremely tolerant person.
i'm one of those people that are extremely yielding, never get into confrontations and things of that sort.. i've been fading for about two months but instead of being smart like everyone else on the board and doing it gradually, i simply just dropped off the face of the earth (by witness standards) and just focused on school and work.. theres one elder that has been calling my family asking about my whereabouts, the times i'm home, my cell # and all the good stuff.
i wake up at 6:30 in the morning to the guy calling me, i dont bother picking up but he leaves a message.
Here's my blow up with a couple of die-hard elders. They got a little more than they bargained for :
