  "...all these computers and digital gadgets are no good. They just fill your head with numbers and that can’t be good for you.”

  Sounds like he's been reading anti-Internet propaganda from the WTS.

  i remember these immunizations and the boosters when i was a kid; i also remember the terrible cough the next door neighbors little girl had.

  are your children's immunizations up to date?

  also yours, your family, the neighbors, anyone who will be around the baby?.

  A big THANK YOU to all of the anti-vaccine people out there.

  I'm just waiting for Small Pox to burn through the population again, killing countless thousands.

  Welcome to JWN Smurf!

  Keep reading and you'll learn a lot of interesting things.

  Everyone,

  To give Dances With Smurfs some "street cred", I've met this person a few times and this person is cool. I suspect that, as circumstances permit, Smurf will reveal more information.

  Smurf,

  Don't be shy to tell your stories... just filter out all of the names, places and other such details.

  When I heard that Betty White was going to be in it, I was every excited.

  Now that I've seen it I'm sad to say that it's just a Chick Flick Sitcom.

  for those that went to meeting what was the general response to this "new understanding" of "this generation"?

  at my hall i don't think anyone really got it or cared.

  >Could the reason for this be that the dubs are finally so shell shocked at all the changes to the 'generation' that their trust in the FDS/GB is rather fragile & no-one wants to talk about the changes?

  I suspect that most JWs do not really pay attention to what is said at the meetings or in the publications. I know I never really did. I would go to the meetings and just half-ass listen to what was said, counting down the time to when I could leave and go home.

  The problem is that too many stupid kids get degrees that have absolutely no job prospects. What the hell kind of job could one get with a "political science" degree?

  Avoid degrees like: Political Science, Literature, Liberal Arts, English (or any other language), History, etc...

  If you want to get a job, get a degree such as: Computer Science, Accounting, Economics, Medical, Engineering (designing machines, not driving trains), etc...

  Some borderline degrees are: Physics, Higher Math, etc.

  You can get a job with these types of degrees, but you will not get paid a lot. These are careers of passion, not money.

  If it was a prophecy, why were you not telling people about it in advance?

  If you could not give meaningful details in advance, then it was not a prophecy.

  > I kinda think of the illustration of the good samaritan. How it wasn't necessarily someone in his church,temple,synagogue or whatever that spurred him into action but just that he saw someone in need and was willing to help out.

  Yep... all of the priests and other holy people walked right past the man in need. It was the unbeliever who stopped and helped.

  Ironically, the bible supports the idea of rejecting organized religion.
