Of course because we were spiritual brothers I was dumb enough not to sign any legal documents (big mistake!).
The moral of the story is always sign a contract. It's like practicing safe sex. Legal contracts are like theocratic condoms.

40Has a “brother” ever screwed you?
by noontide ini was always very cautious with worldly people but of course i trusted everyone in the congregation 100%.
i trusted someone from the congregation with a business deal and got raked over the coals.
its a long and frustrating story, suffice it to say it cost me a lot of anguish, time and money.

The JW theory is that puting the human mind into an altered state as is achieved during hypnosis will allow the demons to gain access to the mind to influence you. I don't understand this line of reasoning since everytime a person goes to sleep, their brain goes into a similar altered state. If the demons could gain access during hypnosis; then they could surely also gain access every time we take a nap.

Watchtower Evolution Fraud
by Amazing inthe watchtower society first published a book on evolution in the late 1960s or early 1970s, simply known as the evolution book.
it is a small hardbound book, the same in size at the old "truth" book.

If evolution is true, and man came from apes, why are there still apes?
No evolutionist has said that humans descended from apes. Homo sapiens and modern primates and apes are descendents of a common ancestor millions of years ago. Modern apes and homo sapiens are separate "branches" which have evolve separately from the same common "branch" which was merely an "ape-like" species. Here is a website which explains the basics of Darwinism as well as the branches of the evolutionary process: http://talkorigins.org

Not only does this experience show how Jehovah can
even use his animal creation to bring someone into the
Truth, but...So, the message to all apostates is that if your dog starts humping your leg; it means Johoover is telling you that you're screwed.

A couple more:
1) Several revisions are going to be made to the current song book. Several of the words will be changed, and can be found on Prince's latest album.
2) The Society is buliding a floating house in New Orleans for Noah and his family to live in when they are resurrected.

Did You Shun Someone?
by Country Girl inhow did you feel when you met the person in public that you were shunning?
what were you thinking as you were shunning the person?

Later, I felt like crap. I was born again, and started to realize what the life of Christ was, and itmade me feel bad for what I had done/said in my earlier life. I felt absolutely crappy.
It's strange how pretty much all of us feel this way. This seems to be the one area that pretty much everyone on this site is in agreement with. Regardless of religious beliefs, I don't think that there is anyone on this site that feels good about the shunning they did in the past. When I think about how I shunned certain relatives for several years, I feel terrible.

Why can't the headline be "Paris Hilton dies in tragic diving accident!"
by free2beme ini am so sick of this woman, and her fame for simply being born into a rich family.
i am just waiting for the day that we get to see her name in the obituary and not on the front of some magazine to say what a great thing she has done, when she found a lost dog.
i actually like the movie, "house of wax", as it does allow you to see some damage done to this woman.

If a dog knows where he should be
If a dog licks his crotch, isn't it a good example for us and our own grooming?
on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays, isn't it a good
example for us and our own meeting attendance?
