okay, i was sitting there just learning (this is my first college course toward my b.a.
), and all of the sudden the professor asks, "is anyone here a jehovahs witness?
" (this is a required religion course).
Hi Everbody:
Is it just me or does this bug others too? I hate to read threads that go off the screen. I have my monitor at max.size. Why does this happen??? I get dizzy trying to read them. I hope that there is someone out there who knows what I mean......sorry for being stupid......I didn't even read this thread.
LOL, dj
i was laughing at the thread talking about the blue smurfs, how demonic they were.
:) it made me remember other stupid phobias the witnesses had, and how easy rumours were to spead around.
one for instance, was the false rumour about proctor and gamble, and how their business emblem/ picture/ whatever you call it was demonic, and how it was the sign of the devil, and to stay away from anything to do with that company.
Hi......me again.....Does anyone know if these fears are documented in wt literature or rumours?? dj

Hey Chief,
Do you mean lecithin?? I hope not......it is found in chocolate as well as plenty of other foods. It is an emulsifier! It is found in the lining of every human cell and performs numerous roles in maintaing good health. It is also in ice cream and margarine, Pam cooking spray, ETC............. It is also in soybeans...BOO!!! love,dj
i've always known that i am a bit obsessive, but lately i've been starting to worry about it.
when i was taught jw stuff, i really got into it.
i know that most women are supposed to be able to think and do a million things at once.
LOL @ grits........oh and thanks for teaching me the correct spelling of brouhaha! too funny to see that word in writing. My husband went to bed w/o saying Goodnight...yikes ....I must be getting on his nerves.....or not on his nerves enough...I did pass him in the hallway.......He ordered pizza for dinner.lol...and he even gave Michael a bath!!!!!! What a guy!
Tomorrow I will not be home ...thank goodness....i am sooo addicted...this is not good.....love,dj
the wt.
of august 15, 2002 asks:"the violent and deadly gladatorial events of the roman empire have been compared to what modern spectator sports?
a recent exibit in the colosseum in rome, italy, suggested modern parallels by including video clips of bullfighting, professional boxing,auto and motorcycle races, and spectator fights at other modern sports events.early christians took to heart that jehovah does not love violence or violent ones,and neither should christians today.
Minimus,
i guess that pedophilia is not violent?
there has been so many in the news as of late - in the usa and the uk.
some of the poor girls were taken right from their beds.
do you think there is more of this happening, or that it is just being reported now?
Hello Mimily:
I hope your head is feeling better.
I heard on 2 different news channels that it has NOT increased, as a matter of fact.....there are less abductions this year than prior years....I forget the exact number but it was a significant drop. I believe that since the kidnapping of a wealthy Mormon child in Utah, the media has been covering more of these shameless acts. They stated that they do not want to give media attention only to the wealthy. I know that the media attention helped solve two cases in the US lately.
love, dj
i was raised on beautiful long island, new york.

Hi Island Woman,
I lived in Long Island....Farmingdale to be exact.....I was small though...now am in PA.
if god should send his son to 124 columbia heights would the watchtower recognize his authority over them?.
if jesus came again in the flesh, went to brooklyn healed the sick and performed other miracles but spoke out against the authoritarian rule of the governing body and the hypocrisy of others who work there would they accept correction?
if he said the governing body and all their immediate helpers were to step down because now he was to rule the watchtower and correct their wrongs, would they?.
Hello Island Woman,
I absolutely believe that they would not recognize him. I have many times wondered this exact question to myself. dj
