When I was four I wanted a fuzzy wuzzy bear soap.
It was soap, shaped like a bear, that grew hair as you used it. When you used it completely up, there was a prize in the center. I watched the TV commercials rapturously (is that a word?)
I never got one, but once played at a friends house that had one, I kept washing my hands over and over while I was there. It was the only time i ever got to actually see that soap and it did not disapoint, I loved that hairy soap!
Now for some reason, nobody wants hair in their soap, go fugure

New simplified Watchtower
by alanv inbeginning with the july 15th 2011 edition of the watchtower, the society are producing a simplified version of the study copy.. this is apparantly for the many people whose first language is not english, and yet they live in a predominantly englsih speaking county.. the normal study edition will still be produced but it looks like the cong.
will be able to ask for a supply of the simplified version each month.. this simplified version can be downloaded from the watchtower site.. http://www.jw.org/index.html.

There is not a JW in any hall that will be using the simple version at the watchtower study.
They may give it to their kids, but no adult or semi-adult JW will ever just sit their with the dummy version for all to see.
Maybe its a ploy to make JWs feel more like scholars, like they really understand the "deeper things" cause they read the "smart" version.

in the 4% of brain that is being used,
KJW, the idea that we only use 10% or less of our brains is a falacy. I know the JWs (and others) have been saying it for years, but it is not true, it is an urban legend.
Believing and promoting urban legends decreases your crediblity.

CoCo, JWN's Renaissance Man, Polymathic Person, Homo Universalis
by snowbird inone of his first online stories that he recalled last week in order to cheer me up a bit:.
the garden bench.
despite the dreariness of yet another so commonplace a day, the old man's spirit soared above and beyond the cruel confines that his frail body imposed upon him.

80% Accept Blood Transfusion
by Marvin Shilmer in80% accept blood transfusion.
i added a new article on my blog citing a 1995 medical study finding something interesting about blood transfusion and young folks among jehovahs witnesses.
the study shows that at least 80% (5 out of 6) accept allogeneic red blood cell transfusions or else their witness parents accept it on their behalf and without need of court-order.

It is my unerstanding that not all GB members voted for the blood ban, it won by just one vote.
So that means several GB members beleive transfusions are A-OK.
Do you think those GB member obstain when their life is at risk?
Doubt it

Did I handle this okay?
by headisspinning ini finished 'crisis of conscience'... i am just reeling.
if any one book has changed my life, then this one is definitely it.
it's incredible really - two weeks ago i was so confused and disturbed and felt like my whole life had been turned on it's end but that book made such a difference for me.

"I have forgiven you both and understand things better now. Some make horrible mistakes before the truth and some after but all of it is from trauma. Im not going to start talking to you until you get back but please dont wait. Time is very short now. Get yourselves back where you belong. Please hurry. Need all of you there with us. love Mum"
I like your reply, however, I would have started with saying that you forgive her (if you do) for what she has done.
But thats just me, JWs hate it when your condescending right back at em.
