  Please, sisters -- one sheet only.

  a newssource today quotes singer sheryl crow, an anti-global warming (which i applaud) activist, "i propose a limitation be put on how many squares of toilet paper can be used in any one sitting.

  now, i dont want to rob any law-abiding american of his or her god-given rights, but i think we are an industrious enough people that we can make it work with only one square per restroom visit, except, of course, on those pesky occasions where 2 to 3 could be required.".

  not being a woman i don't know about that -- i have my doubts.

  Taking predictions for the 2007 memorial partakers!!

  i'm doing this well in advance so that all the wonderful people on jwd can look back later and see just how close they were to the actual number!

  (it is possible the wts might stop publishing the partaker numbers) in a few days, i will duly record the link to this thread for future reference.. remember that there were 8524 partakers in 2005 and 8758 partakers in 2006, an increase of 234 partakers.

  so how many remnant will partake in 2007??.

  anybody remember the 8 day 1969 international convention.

  i was at the braves stadium in atlanta all 8 days with a sunburn and then wet clothes after the rain storms.

  if you were there (not necessarily in atlanta) do you remember anything about it?

  I have never been an elder, but I would say at least one hour or so. I am sure the ex elders can have better answers than me. I was reproved(not disfellowshipped) long time ago. I think it was about an hour meeting.

  Would I be df’d if…?

  well, let me fill you in on a few things first.

  i have stopped all jw activity since a few months and as mentioned in other posts, i am being stalked by every elder and car group looking to stretch their service time.

  when they come i just ignore them by not answering the door (or the phone when they call).. today they came (for the 3rd time in 3 days) and when i went outside a few hours later my neighbor was out front of his house and after some small talk, he informed me that i had some dressed up people come to my door.

  when i became a jw and started getting serious about it, i discovered that i should throw all my medals and trophies out.

  it was such a long time ago and i don't remember why now.

  could someone explain to me why i had to do that?

  Am I the Only One?

  by hybridous in

  i have a hard time accepting and believing that this whole wt 'phenonemon' is, and has always been, an end unto itself.. i can't help but suspect that this publishing company, masquerading as a religion, is still a front for something - or someone else.. i don't have any substantial empirical evidence, just a whole lot of anecdotal evidence that just happens to fit the hypothesis that there are deeper levels to this whole ridiculousness.

  fundamentalist islam seems to be able to control and exert influence in it's followers to the point of suicide attacks.

  i submit that the influence of the jw religion upon it's followers is analogous, if not completely identical (at this time).

  If your neighbor tells any JW that you do not want to be JW anymore, then they might disassociate you from the congregation. Just a thought.
