It's never too late for college! Never! Your post reminded me of something I saw the other night while in a local office store. I walk in and there is this brother I had known since I was 10, still mopping floors, Now, I'm disrespecting those in the janitorial work, but I remembered when this brother got married and immediately had kids and started working for a brother that owned a janitorial bussiness. He was a very smart guy. Shit, he could have had a phD by now....

It's a real damn shame some of these dubs have so much on their hands that they can copy this crap out of the literature and post it on the web. I always had a hard time understanding the organization Jesus supposedly works through has to constantly change things ("new light"). When I read the new testament,, I don't remember Jesus being so inconsistent..

What is Jehovah's Will Today?
by SexyTeen ini have a quick question: what is jehovah's will today and who is doing it?

ST, you seem to be focusing entirely too much on figuring out the unknown, instead on focusing right now on what's important to yourself and the rest of humanity. Use a little though and reason on what you think on your personal philosophy. Quit asking everybody else to form it for you...

What or who is the Faithful & Discreet Slave?
by SexyTeen ini know that most of you do not believe that the annointed remnant among jehovah's witnesses is the faithful & discreet slave.. so who is?
jesus did say that this slave (individual or class?
) would be feeding his sheep, so who is doing the job?

Jesus quit feeding his "faithfull and discreet slave class" when he died.

Now I'm just curious who else has died. This is the shit that gets to me the most. It makes me appreciate the bumper sticker, "Be nice to your kids, they may choose a nursing home" even more...

DIM, I stand corrected! And I'm sorry I ever brought up the whole "Onan" thing for Christ's sake!

It may not be in recent literature, but the majority of witnesses I knew equated Onanism with masturbation. Either which way, they said, you were "spilling your seed." Of course, you could argue against this due to the fact that they say self pleasure for women is wrong also. Plus birth control is a "matter of conscience". Hell, all I know is that if more JWs used birth control, the world would be a much better place....

To add a little variation of the Marx quote, "The witnesses have nothing to lose but their chains".
