TS-
Well as a whole the entire circuit has been dwindleing. My wife and I got the ax in Nov. another couple got it in Jan. Other halls attendance is down, I personally think it is a trend (at least in upstate NY) We just find it amusing, such an outin-rush of people. A neighboring KH elder was excited that they are getting 40 'new' publishers bring their total to just over 100. New? they are transplants not new. They tell them selves anything to feel better.

the watchtower society it is still gods organization.
eyes that cannot see, ears that cannot hearmy friend knows of the watchtowers involvement with .
Don't forget the mindset when sex is involved. It shall only be discussed in JC meetings and all questions are for the enjoyment of the men that sit as their judges.

Also, this was just extensively remodeled two years ago, and a lot of local donations were taken in to help pay for it (I'm sure they all will get their money back). Later, Jim
i wish to remove myself from the tms.
i can't stand it any longer.
i am never out in service (i still turn in "informal" time) i still attend the meetings.
A few years back a kid of an old friend of ours got out of it by 'blowing chunk' during the middle of his talk, claimed nerves and never got back on stage.
i wanted to get your thoughts on the claim that pharaoh's drowned army was discovered.
the claim comes from ron wyatt.
he seems to have a cult following and some critics to his claims.
A quick look at arkdiscovery home page shows how they are not interested in the evidence so much as their own message.
snow in malibu yesterday.
.
this morning i had to scrape the ice off my windshield and back window.. on the way to work i saw many a frozen front lawn and most cars were covered with ice like mine.. all on the outskirts of los angeles.. it must be "global warming".. warlock.
I am surprised that nobody here has picked up on the FACT that the average global temp has an inverse relationship with the number of pirates in existence. Since the early 1800’s their numbers have decreased and the temp has gone up.
greetings friends
i have once heard the christian watchtower society described as the borg, (a reference to the work of the late gene roddenberry) and my good friend who is still hopelessly trapped in a new form of lies (more christendom crap) is now professing something similar in this new "christ preaching" stuff.
why not return to the true jewish roots of the bible if one is going to actually be a bible student?
As I see it that would take the emphasis off them (WTBTS) and remove them from the center stage of authority.
i have two.
"please god protect me from your people".
"if you love something let go.......if it doesn't come back, hunt in down and kill it" .
Animals - It's what's for dinner
we are all aware that major occurances are happening in this earth and the heavens that are causing scientist, biologist, epidemologist are all in a quandry as to why a large chunck of ice seperated from the canadian artic ice shelf the size of which is the equal of eleven thousand football fields.
beyond belief.. what a great concern for mankind and the earth.
the global warming, the ozone layer enlarging asteroids, and whatever else they can think of is definetly destroying our planet or at least changing the global warming.
Amen Amazing, the human race is along for the ride. We can prevent localized problems created from industrialization (pollution), however to think that we can change the global climate is simply naïve. We live in a cyclical world, climates change, populations rise and fall (both human and otherwise; i.e. black plaque-humans down, fleas up). These events correct themselves as defined by nature. As far as natural disasters, with higher population concentration any event will lead to higher property damage and death, a cyclic cycle.
the witnesses came to my complex today, this time it was two very good looking women.
i walked up to them and calmly said that this is the second warning that they were trespassing on my property and that no jehovah's witnesses are aloud on this property knocking on doors.
i have a tenant who is a jw and this is fine with me and they are aloud to come and visit her but i do not allow them to bother my tenants as they all prefer they stay away anyways.
Check out the ruling for WTBTS v Village of Stratton
http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/cgi-bin/getcase.pl?court=US&navby=case&vol=000&invol=00-1737#section4
Chief Justice Rehnquist, dissenting. Last paragraph in his opinion.
"As the Court recognizes, any homeowner may place a "No Solicitation" sign on his or her property, and it is a crime to violate that sign"
Give them a copy of this and it should end the knockin'
Then call the cops.
