  2. friends

  so who have you met who is famous or slightly famous and under what circumstances?

  (for the benefit of cross atlantic variations in celebrity - attach a pic and/or explanation of who that celeb is) .

  or have you never met anyone even slightly famous but have aspirations to do so!

  A bit reluctant

  by saki2fifty in

  2. friends

  i'm a bit reluctant in writing this post, for i dont feel i should be here.

  even a bit nervous... .

  i've never officially dedicated myself to jehovah, but i was brought up in the truth, very strong, and at times when getting older, there were lulls in my attendance... yet to this day i still attend.

  # 5 of resolution at DC

  we utterly refuse to become involved with futile interfaith movements .

  as well as social programs and schemes ( nonfutile ones are ok?

  designed to perpetuate a system that god has condemned as a failure.

  No Resurrection For Disfellowshipped?

  by ThomasCovenant in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  sorry if this has been covered already.. 1) what is the written policy about disfellowshipped ones having a resurrection?.

  2) what if the disfellowshipped one is d'd for apostasy?.

  reason i ask is an ex elder who was disfellowshipped for apostasy is very ill and may very likely die soon.

  I came home to find my wife crying over THAT article.

  i came home today to find my wife crying whilst reading the 'when a loved one leaves jehovah' article.

  its been a good few months now and i can appreciate how she feels.

  but it just irritates me how my disagreeing with this religion has such a catastrophic effect on our everyday lives.

  My first blood donation

  by sass_my_frass in

  ... has been scheduled.

  i've been to the clinic to watch mr frass donate, and it was pretty confronting.

  still i've realised that if i'm happy with taking blood, i should be happy to give it too, so i'm going to become a donor.

  i've been a member of the site for a month, but have been reading the posts for a lot longer, however this is my first post.

  i was raised a j-dub by my mother (my father wasn't religious) with my sister and brother.

  i was pretty much convinced by my dub friends, bible study conductor, and mother that i should get baptized when i was 15 and decided to go for it.

  I-75 London Kentucky-pick up the mags

  by Junction-Guy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  if you ever travel i-75 through london kentucky, stop off at the shell station at exit 38. on the back side of the building beside the payphones there is a brochure rack for truckers, there are always watchtowers and awakes laying around.

  i hit the jackpot on saturday when i was traveling north to dayton, i found a total of 8 different watchtower and awakes, i promptly removed them all.

  this has been a tradition for me for the past few years.
