  A special person recently sent me pink roses coupled with pink carnations, with pink and white baby's breath, topped off with a big pink bow!

  Just lovely.

  a couple of years ago during the km meeting the day of the memorial was announced, location and time.

  the announcement was followed by a km article review re: the memorial (question & answer).

  my daughter was 5 at that time and had been dozing off & on.

  Why Are You Upset with the Society?

  by larc in

  2. friends

  i just don't get why all of you are so upset with the watchtower bible and tract society.

  now, they did make few mistakes, even though they are god's channel of communication.

  well, stuff happens.

  I would not be nearly so upset if we were allowed to just walk away. To announce that we no longer wish to be a part of this organization and to go on our merry way, with the blessings and well wishes of all in the congregation. To be able to maintain my friendships and not be shunned by my family.

  If that were the case I believe I might even drop in to the Kingdom Hall from time to time.

  WT Speaks Out On Apostasy

  by stevieb1 in

  the following quote is taken from the september 15, 2002 edition of the watchtower, p.16-18:.

  "in the first century, such individuals as hymanaeus, alexander, and philetus, were advocating ideas that did not fit "the pattern of healthful words.

  " (1 timothy 1:18-20; 2 timothy 2:16,17) how could the early christians avoid being led astray by apostates?

  Sometimes they have used the media to spread distorted information or even outright lies about the methods and motives of Jehovah's Witnesses................"

  Jehovah's Witnesses are not shrinking violets when it comes to using the courts to protect their rights. If they were certain

  that the media was spreading distorted information or outright lies, wild horses could not hold them back from suing. However, isn't

  it interesting that no lawsuits have been initiated or are pending?

  Hi Trot,

  I got the same email.

  What an absolute scam.

  First my name and address, then, dare I say, my bank account umber so that he can put the funds in.

  I wonder how many suckers fall for this?

  Hi Nordic,

  I too was born in the "truth".

  I sold all my old watchtower literature on ebay. One man's trash is another man's treasure.

  Welcome to the forum.

  court ruling again places jehovah's witnesses as 'patriotic citizens' by shawn francis peters

  last updated: july 20, 2002

  the u.s. supreme court ruled last month that an ohio village could not require religious proselytizers and political canvassers to obtain a municipal permit before they took to the streets.. in an 8-1 decision, in the case of watchtower bible and tract society vs. village of stratton, the high court held that applying the village's licensing ordinance to such activities violated constitutional protections of free speech.. the most curious aspect of the supreme court's ruling in stratton was a brief concurring opinion authored by justice antonin scalia.

  I am sure that the public relations firm they hired to get this story printed just got a raise!

  What pisses you off about elders wives?

  by bay64me in

  .

  the elders wife that really pisses me off, is the one that would boastfully announce that jehovah had provided her husband with a part-time teaching job, emphasising that his employment was "on the line" each year....but thanks to jehovah,(in other words) we are so fucking loyal and do many hours in field service and things that nobody could possibly know about ( but i'm letting you know indirectly) so my husband has an income to assist us in our pioneer service!
