  The ever present pocket book. And bottle bottom glasses...she was a peach! Bye Estelle!

  Not to mention the ever-present handbag (even if she was going to the bathroom).

  Golden Girls would have never been the same without her. So sorry she's gone.

  Mind Control Jewels from N.Y. Special Assembly Day - PMed to me by Newbie

  by flipper in

  i was pmed this excerpt from the final talk by r. clark at the new york special assembly day by a newbie whom i will keep anonymous for confidentiality purposes.

  it is full of spin control, and damage control which shows how nervous the watchtower society is getting about " negative talk ", " independent thinking", and " internet use " by the rank and file jehovah's witness members.

  title of the talk : .

  The faithful and discreet slave does extensive research on every article

  Whaaaaat??????

  Then why don't they gladly cite their references? I can't ever remember seeing any of those. What about all those quotations taken out of context? Did he mention any of that?

  Marry only in the lord - I have personal experience with this one. While we were dating, I tried to convince my husband that we were unevenly yoked. When he told me he didn't worship Baal, I did not have a rebuttal.

  Oh, well don't get me started on this misinterpretation!

  Anyone who reads and understands English would plainly see that 1 Corinthians 7:39 was specifically addressed to widows!

  If not, then why would the Apostle Paul write at 1 Corinthians 7:25 .... "Now about virgins: I have no command from the Lord, but I give a judgment as one who by the Lord's mercy is trustworthy."

  we went to a viewing and funeral for a 5 year old little girl that died of cancer tonight.

  it was in their family church.

  it made me think about the witness funeral's i've gone to in the past.

  I've been to many JW funerals over the years, and the bodies were viewed at the KH. Most also had a second viewing at the burial site.

  I love the way they have the native family in paradise dressed in the WTBTS version of appropriate native (influenced) clothing.

  Yep ... those goodies should be on the catwalk!

  I never understood why a birthday celebration is considered as idolatry, but fawning over the Circuit Overseer isn't.

  when i got home from work this evening there was an awake in my door.

  as i skim thru it, i notice a comment on page 29 under from our readers, "what does the future hold for christianity.

  ss from the u.s. wrote that he/she believes that the jw's just love to tear down other religions, yet .

  We recognize that "all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God"(Romans 3:23.)

  With that in mind, we expend ourselves and our resources devoting much time to calling at homes to share bible truths, including the wonderful hope the Bible contains.

  Is it just me, or does the first part have absolutely no relation to the second? How does calling at homes with bible truths address the fact that all have sinned?

  Doesn't surprise me either ... anything can happen with fraternal twins.
