  So far I am...don't know how long though.

  I've meet with elders 3 times now. I've told them everything (almost everything, obviously). I suspect they will want to visit again.

  You see, we mutually missed about 2 weeks of meetings. Then we go for a week. Now we have mutually missed 9 in a row. Tonight we had a beer and went out on the town instead of meeting!
  
  I am afraid to ask...I am just going to enjoy it.

  What is the most objectionable thing you have heard off the platform?

  by restrangled in

  i know many have quoted ridiculous statements from the assemblies etc., i just wonder what irked you most off of the platform in your own kh.. the one that sticks out in my mind was when we had a guest speaker on a sunday for the public talk.

  i don't remember the theme but his main point was the starving people in africa did not need food.

  he stated they needed spiritual food and would opt for that over a meal because they realize they could eat in the new order and there was no need to send any donations directly.

  I posted this a while ago, but let me do it again.

  During the C.O.'s visit, he said, from the platform, that there was an area in Ohio where the brothers had not been able to preach because of the drug dealing, prostitution etc.

  He said the city got tired of it and decided to clean it up by getting "the blacks" out of the neighborhood.

  I thought "I can't believe he said that". I looked at one of the black sisters in our cong. and I'm thinking "I wonder what she's feeling".

  That is amazing. I think I would be tempted to gather my things and walk out right then.

  He was the only innocent and impressionable one left so I currupted him.

  Hmm..I'm in college...still innocent and impressionable. Should I be careful?

  You can spend 6 hours at any point in history, where and when would you go?

  you are only an invisible observer.

  you cannot interact with people or the surroundings at all and will remain unaffected by the experience.

  history will not notice you.. so, do you choose to be present 3 hours before and after the big bang!?

  Child baptism

  by 5thGeneration in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  why does the society encourages kids to get baptized?.

  1. it becomes a bragging right for the parents.. 2. it puts too much pressure on the kids.. 3. it is unscriptural as jesus astounded the jewish leaders at 12 years old and yet did not himself get baptized until another 18 years later.

  hard to believe that some 12 year old snot in the congregation has a deeper relationship and understanding with god than jesus did!.

  Never thought of it this way. Thanks.

  I've mentioned to others that Jesus didn't get baptized till he was 30 to others in the congo. Yet this fact is always minimized in favor of get baptized now! We had a 10 or 11 year old get baptized recently in our hall...the kid has no idea what the meaning of the questions he answered "yes" mean.
