Unusual preaching method I spotted today..
by ackack inwhile waiting for a streetcar today, i noticed an unusal flier stuck to the side of a newspaper box.
why has love of neighbour grown cold?many people feel miserable with no solution.
in israel, jews and arabs live together, but often hate one another.

Forget my last post i'm not sorry at all. It annoys me that some "well wishers" can be so b****y ignorant how can you comment on something you have little or no experience with
"Jesus said that love would identify his true followers: "By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another." (Jn 13:35, ESV). Jehovah's Witnesses are, in fact, well known for helping their neighbours."
pity they're not so "well known" for helping their children i just came off reading a very old thread from here,
http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/12/49021/1.ashx
i cried when i read this it certainly sounded like a carbon copy of my life as a dub, now i'm just angry...angry at self rightious do gooders who skim the surface of the ocean and then think they know it's depths...& to think there are 60,000 odd cultists out there "bringing up" children in a similar way because the org tells them this is what God wants...
'Jehovah's Witnesses are a highly civilized people...you almost feel as hough you were in paradise, since the atmosphere is relaxed, peaceful and serene.'..."These Christians do not fight among themselves... they have love in their hearts
if Jehovah's Witnesses were the only ones living on earth...god help them

Worst impression of a non-JW ever!
You lot crack me up... youre all so funny. I realy enjoyed reading this thread i nearly wet myself reading this bit...
Oh, no! Please Jehovah, protect us from those horrible, evil, sons and daughters of adam and eve. You know the one's I mean. Those ones who have the audacity to think with their minds!
What shall we call this new insidious breed? I know! I know! "Mind Thinkers". Oh the sheer horror of it!
Cog (I just insulted my first troll. That was fun)
Sorry La Shawn but i checked out your other posts & you realy do sound like a jw. If you spend a bit of time here you will see wot many people have been through. The last thing we need is to be preached at .Wot i like about this site is the FREEDOM to be allowed to think & speak my mind & not be DICTATED as to wot to say & feel without thinking.

Like a good NZer, he sung his own praises and knighted himself. Probably after inventing the aeroplane, the pavlova and Yates seeds...
OK, ok, ok you win thats pretty funny
Dannevirke was founded by the Danes like most of the rest of da vorld, so i'm still not giving him any credit for being a true kiwi
You Ozzie's
Juni- i'd love to be able to travel the world but hey, if you can't do that you have to be able to make the most of where you are. There are so many NZ beautiful places most kiwi's haven't even seen before they travel overseas

My nieghbours kids saw some whales yesterday in Kaikoura
Great Did they go out on Whale watch if they did they're luck they got in yesterday as whale watch didn't run today apparently it was due to southerlies and rough water. There has been a Southern Wright and her calf hanging out in the bay (outside whale watch) for a couple of weeks now which have been attracting a large gathering
