  Are YOU Basically The Same Person Now As When You Were A Witness?

  they say "the truth" changes people from nasty, wicked people to meek, honest hearted "ones".

  now that you're out of "the truth", are you back to your old ways??

  did "the truth" ever really change you??

  I am a better person, I am involved with helping my community people in my town like me now. My wife is President of local united organized organization in our area.{This group brings all groups like the local Chambers of Commerces and committees like parks and recreations etc... together under one united direction}

  I like the fact I am not juggmental and my time is spent with my family that is still young and we do things together now not draging their asses to the Hall.

  Much better person, I like who I am.

  Islam bashed by Witnesses

  by Fleshybirdfodder in

  i was listening to talk radio the other day and they were discussing the muslims who were taken off an american airlines flight (i believe that was the airline) because they were praying publicly prior to the flight.

  one of the individuals, an imam, who was on the flight was being interviewed and in the defense of what he called "moderate islam" proclaimed there is a movement against islam, and specifically mentioned jehovah's witnesses handing out a flyer where they directly misquote the koran to implicate all muslims in 9/11.

  is this in the new "the end of false religion is near" tract?

  Many of the Leaders of the BORG are now leaning strongly that the whole Muslin world is now the King of the North replacing Russia. I listened to a talk by one of the Governing body I believe it was Daniel Sydlik but not for sure where he said the Society is watching with great interest as to whom the King will be, then he said right now they are thinking that the combined Muslim World is becoming more and more aggressive and they were watching with great exspectation to see if they are now that King.

  I was listening to the tape with my mom and dad, mom was thrilled, dad and I could not believe what we were hearing. Muslim's King of the North? B.S. we told mom, but as usual the Governing Body member said it so she looks at every Magazine with expectation of seeing it in print.

  i'm trying to remember the process for giving a talk.

  i remember getting a slip with a topic on it, but what else was on that slip?

  did it tell you what scriptures you should cite, or what book the talk was based on?

  I use to give at least one part a week I could give a talk without even looking at the information before arriving at the hall. I had the gift and everyone loved my talks. If someone was not there I substituted This was a matter of pride for me because my dad was the worst speaker and put everyone to sleep. I loved hour talks they were the funnest and always got to eat out for nothing after the meeting. I miss giving talk but nothing else.

  No I was hoping someone here had copied on of the articles. The Society announced the change to the worlds press long before they told the Congregation at the Assembly that summer. I knew about it from a News paper article and told many about the change. I was almost tarred and feathered because of this. Then at the summer Assembly it was announced and I got my told of so. I had all the information at one time but some one came in to my house while I was out and took all information about the local congregation Elder body dealing I had a journal and information I was compiling about the BORG. My wife did not take it so I am sure the BORG ELDERS took it.

  Last night when I mentioned this change to a BORG member he said prove it but it had not better come from an apostate site. I had all that information and it pisses me off someone stole it.

  The Science of Belief

  by LittleToe in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  time and again the refrain is heard that belief and science are mutually exclusive, that belief somehow corrupts good science, that belief is not empirical.

  i'd like to throw another slant on that, if i may.. belief is an inherent part of the human psyche.

  the desire to know more about our environment and how it all works is also an inherent part of our psyche.

  Belief is fine to the Believer but is foolish to the non believer. Exsample the Dooms Day Cult that thought the Aliens were going to take them up in a ship with the arival of a comet. Two people that were part of this Cult were interviewed on a News program. They were brain washed so completely even at the time of the interview, Both was ashamed they did not have the faith to die with the others that day. The interviewer asked why? The man ex-cult member said becasue of all the proof they were correct is why.

  Faith trumps proof everytime.

  Here in Northern Idaho this hunting season I know eight different people on different days claim they saw a light that hovered a few hundred feet above the tree tops night and day. At times it would slowly maneuver down the Mt but always return to the same spot up the Mt. People around hear have been going up there to see the light they say it changes color at times. It has some of the Indians around here scared of bad spirits and they are now refusing to go near the Mt.

  Jimbob and I have been talking about going up there to see the light. Some of the hunters have taken photos of the light but I have not seen them. If we go we will take photos if it is there.
