  the governing body is preparing to take a major hit.

  this recent watchtower shows it.

  not the new understandings, but the article on marriage.

  What stands out to me is the picture is showing a relatively young/vibrant age group...no older ones. I think that is on purpose to appeal to a younger crowd and to show what "hip" organization it is. (NOT! Same boring, tedious, destructive message.) I don't think it's a fair or accurate picture of a congregation.

  Nice try WT.

  Many Member Just Want to Believe

  by OnTheWayOut in

  if you are/were an active jw, you are now here on jwn so, for whatever your reasons, you woke up to some degree- hopefully a great degree.

  so what i am saying may not apply to you.. i know that if i had not already left, i would have stormed out on the day they studied "overlapping generation.

  " i am quite confident i couldn't have stayed for such an obvious switcharoo just to make the end seem imminent and try to explain how wts was wrong, but not entirely wrong in the past.. but i had to wonder how that change (or others) didn't cause most jw's to walk out.

  That's about it. They want it to be true...talking snakes or golden tablets...it's magic and a fairy tale they want to be true.

  Funeral for an atheist

  by Stealth in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  99% of all funerals that i have attended have been the wt version, where they preach about the resurrection into paradise and say little about the person who passed other than they were loyal to jah.

  the other 1% catholic for grandparents.. now that i consider myself an atheist, i got to wondering what do atheists plan for when they die?.

  if you are a non-believer what are your plans for when you die?

  I will donate my corpse to science. I had a cousin who was an oncologist who convinced me of this.

  Then I hope my family and friends have a party with my favorite food and they laugh and tell lots of stories.

  Your favourite dog breed ...?

  by LoveUniHateExams in

  1. social

  in an earlier thread, i mentioned that i wasn't a particularly doggy person but that my parents got a husky last year that i've come to regard as a kind of brother.. huskies superficially resemble wolves and for me it's been fun to compare and contrast husky and wolf behaviour.

  huskies howl but rarely bark, and seem to have a strong prey drive and a strong pack instinct - a nod to their wild cousins.

  this is why i love huskies, i think.. do you have a favourite dog breed and why?.

  I love love love boxers. So smart and so communicative!

  My best friend has a cane corso, an Italian mastiff. He is interesting...a bit aloof, but always on call as a guard dog. I like Rotts also.

  small dogs, love the personality of dachshunds.

  Speaking of weird, I've been wearing a fragance I bought from a gift shop in Oregon. I don't remember who makes it, but it's aroma is "Tabac." It's pretty earthy and I mix it with musk some days. It's sort of earthy and I like it for some reason.
