I think about that every sunday at Mass, Jesus even allowed Judas to partake in his body and blood and the JW's wont even allow R&F???
Hummm
something has been bugging me for ages about the non-participation of r&f jws in the memorial meal (sounds like a mcdonalds deal) !.
i've just worked out what it is.... only the "anointed" can partake of the emblems.. but at the original meal, as instituted by jesus, no one was anointed.
the anointing came at pentecost, after he had died !.

after 4 years away from meetings and no contact with the cong i attended, yesterday i answered the door to find an elder at the door.
he was po in my cong but has been removed i had heard.
he said he was calling about the disaster fund and that the society wanted to update everyones details like phone numbers and contacts.
disaster fund = Beer Money
about 10am this morning i was following my roommate down the interstate (helping him move a few things) and all of a sudden, i had the worst pain i've ever felt in my belly.. the pain was between my nipples and the middle of my belly, but it was all around my body- even that section of my back hurt.
it felt like someone had tied a very tight band around my torso and was pulling it tighter and tighter.. after being in pain for only about 5 minutes, i had to pull over.
i jumped out of my car and ran over to the gaurd rail, thinking that perhaps i would vomit.
OK taking bets now on whats wrong with him
$10 says Appendix?
ha, ha, ha,
ever notice guys hate going to the Dr., I know I do, almost killed me once, my appendix exploded, I still thought it was just something I ate.
seriously Hope all is good and he just needed to let out a REALLY BIG FART!
could you think of anything that might put them over the edge?
'the new wild beast is Church's Fried Chicken'
I remember we were not allowed to eat Church's Chicken because it had the word "Church" ha ha ha how freaking stupid, humm makes me want to open a chain of Jehovah's Fried Chicken!! the bucket could be shaped like a watchtower. ha ha ha

I can think of maybe 3 people in my family that are on the fence, they do things that would be considered Worldly, but still at the end of the day always go back, I think if they really had to make a choice it would take a lot of doing to get them to leave but I still hope.
other members of my family if Jesus cam to them with 3 forms of ID, and a Notarized document that says Stay away from the JW's they will still need to check with the elders on that.
so my ex called a little while ago.
she said she was calling to check on me out of concern.
i've been to 2 meetings in a month.
Dealing with JWs is truly a unique experience. Enough to make you go looney!!!
You can say that again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
two of the ghost hunters asked a toy dragon to roar, and it did, 4 times!!!.
warlock .
did anyone see that one where they were staying in a hotel, and the blanket moved off the corner of the bed, like if someone was removing the covers? That one was pretty cool, I like to watch this show but my wife gets freaked out, there is another show that is pretty cool its A Haunting? I really like that one.
I don't care if anyone says that I am silly because I look for ghosts, like to go to Haunted places or believe in it, its just fun. Fear and Love only emotions to let you know your heart is beating.
my birthday is coming up in a month.
i'm 35 and i'm so depressed about turning 36. i've heard people really get down when they were turning 25, 30, and other ages but non of my birthday's bothered me this much until now.
turning 36 is so depressing and i think it's because here i am single again trying to now start my career, my credit, my whole life over.
Crumpy,
Well that makes you a Dirty Old Crumpy,
When I was in High School, there was a family in the Cong. The dad killed his family and himself, one of his daughters was going to be married to a friend of my sisters brother. Anyway I heard that his wife was leaving him and he had some money problems or something, any way he waited for each of them to come home and killed them with a knife and gun. It was amazing how much it was swept under the carpet and we were not allowed to talk about it.
This happend in the Lancaster/Palmdale CA, area, back in the early 90's does anyone remember this?
there seems to be now a lot of reports of jw's actually speaking to those of us who have left.
even to df'd and da'd ones.
i had a mail today from da'd jw saying he was in pc world when he saw a jw from his old congregation one who had ignored him times before.
I heard they don't have those Ration tickets anymore, I think I read that on this board, remember those stupid tickets, you use to buy them at your hall before an assembly, then use them to buy food, I think a Muffin egg was 4 tickets??
