  What do you think the JWs will be doing on the 4th of July?

  tomorrow i plan on sleeping in late and then go to a cookout.

  during a day where it seems that most people will be in the yards cooking on the grill, i wonder if more jws will go out in service; and if offered a hotdog will they accept it?.

  What's your take on "stumbling"...

  by Frequent_Fader_Miles in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  the phrase "cause for stumbling" often left me bewildered.

  tell you what to do counsel you and impose their own opinions on you.

  maybe i did something in the past that "stumbled" someone, but aren't we all able to make our own decisions when it comes to conduct and choices ... at least we should be, especially if it isn't regarding something inherently wrong.

  I was told that if you stumble someone you could be held "blood guilty". That would be unforgiveable.

  Actually, what's unforgiveable is instilling this type of fear into people.

  the end of may my daughter and i were walking an overgrown path to the river, going to take pictures of each other in the wild roses, when we saw this--right at the edge of the path:.

  "mommy, look," she said.

  "oh no," i thought.

  which celebrity death....?

  by nowisee in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  just heard about the death of joel siegel, the entertainment critic for abc, and found myself, surprisingly, in tears.

  maybe it was because he had such a young son and made plans to let him know how much he was loved, long before he died.

  maybe because i have watched him for so many years.

  We use plastic just because they come in handy for a variety of reasons in my house.

  Reading all or your responses makes me feel as though we should just carry our groceries home in an apron or skirt or something. OMG, we're damned if we do or don't. You'd think if the big chain grocery companies were just a wee bit concerned about our environment, they would provide their customers with maybe 5 free cloth bags per customer card just to get started. Then offer more bags at cost. Come on....they're made of recycled material anyway. How much could they cost. It's for the environment. Oh, I forgot. The almighty dollar is much more important.

  i'm really intrigued by that fact that i may know some of you and yet not know that i know you.

  i just want to know how many people from canada are here.

  if you don't mind and don't care about posting your province (cause i'm too timid to) we could all get an idea of just how many canucks are really out there.

  Thanks for providing us with this blast from the past. These demos never change. Just different people in a different setting using the same old stupid script.

  Just one question. How is divine education going to fund a retirement savings plan?
