jehovah trains--not jesus?.
his flock--not jesus?.

Something I find kinda interesting is that even though Jesus/Christ, the Faithful & Discrete Slave/slave class, and Jehovah are mentioned by name almost the same number of times in this article (about 18, 18, and 15 respectively), in the New Testament Jesus is mentioned many many times, the Faithful and Discrete Slave once, and Jehovah not at all...

while traveling down thru new england, i happened across one of the new district convention "invites".. how dumb can the watchtower society get?
for the moment, let's ignore the fact that they expect people to drop everything.
within a radius of one, two or even three hundred miles and attend an inner city convention over a weekend.
I can remember wondering, when I was still "in," who they thought would find their weird invitations and "public" talks appealling?...
Oh, that's right--"honest-hearted ones!"
So is this really just an attempt to bolster the JW notion that the masses of nice folks out there who don't find this at all appealing are just not honest-hearted enough and are truly worthy of destruction?
Isolationism made to look like an open invitation. That's how it seems to me.

and remind someone how glad you are they are here...(i'll start).
jw_researcher...this bud's for you.
All of those with a good sense of humour and a lot of patience!
I'll second that! and add
*all those who have shared their personal stories, helping others know they're not alone
*everyone who takes time to research and answer others' questions and debate relevent issues
*those who are careful not to add insult to injury
*the folks who keep us laughing
*those who are sometimes misunderstood but take time to explain themselves yet again
*those who challenge us to look at things from a different POV and maybe rattle our cages from time to time
love you alland am so grateful you take the time to interact...

okay, so it's burn in hell day.
although this is not really linked to this day specifically, i made an mp3 cd of music to play when we've got the fire pit going in the back yard.
however, it's quite fitting for listening to today.
