  Did doctrine matter to you? Does it matter to most dubs now?

  by nicolaou in

  minimus started a great thread a few days ago asking what was "it" that finally made you leave the "truth"?.

  the replies showed that, for the most part, it was the unloving, uncaring attitude displayed by most of the 'brothers & sisters' - elders particularly.

  some posters even made the point that this lack of love drove them out despite them harbouring fears that they might actually be leaving the truth.

  I think there are two types of JW's.

  The ones were doctine is really important. These are the ones that like to understand why the society writes the things it does.

  The other type just accept whatever doctrine they are fed. What's important to them is the social aspect of the religion.

  Cheers

  I don't really believe in a personal god anymore. I tend to think of god as some sort of force. Not really sure how to define it, but I definitely believe in the spiritual and I thing there is some link between the physical and the spiritual. I feel we all have that connection to the spiritual, but some are more attuned to it than others.

  Cheers

  Penny-pinching calendars!

  by metatron in

  take a good look at the new 2004 watchtower calendar and compare it with any other calendar you receive.. it's tiny ( old folks can barely read the print).

  it's only eight pages - with the months doubled up on each page.. .

  now, tell me how god is wonderfully expanding this organization, amidst frequent appeals for more contributions!.

  I always felt guilty about having a "worldly" calender in my bedroom instead of the societies one. I usually liked to have something that inspired me hanging on the wall. But the societies calendar was just boring and lame as hell. The later ones reminded me of christian or biblical artwork that catholics used to hang up in their houses.

  I usually had a LoTR or Star Trek calendar. Would have loved to have one with bikini clad girls but I think that was out of the question in my house.

  anyone owned one?

  sens is looking at one that has a "funny" transmission.

  i was talking to a friend who owns one here in oz, she also has had two in canada (she's a recent import) she said that compared to other cars, the autos are a bit different, probably because of the higher revving engine in the little sports car.

  I love these Mac vs Windows (vs Linux) threads!!

  I use both Mac OS X and Windows XP.

  I primarily use the Mac for music production. It's basically the hub of my studio. I have no problems with it. It's quite a powerful system. But I didn't really have a choice in the matter as the music production software I use ( Emagic Logic) only runs on Mac. So I was forced into using the Mac. Downsides of the mac is the price, moving around the desktop and finding files is not as quick as windows desktop and start bar.

  Jwbot point is right and very valid. If you just want to use graphic design apps. Then I say get Windows XP pro. Very stable, cheaper to get a good PC, and quality is just as good as the Mac.

  To be honost, their is alot of hype around Macs. They aren't really faster than Windows PC's. Personally I find working on a PC quicker than working on Macs. It all depends on how you like to work. Choose the one that fits your workflow.

  BTW don't listen to sens or bubba... linux is for geeks :D

  Cheers
