there is a disturbing trend in my area that desperately needs attention from headquarters.
congregations are getting together for picnics, parties, "fun nights", etc.
this shocking disregard for theocratic order reached a head recently when what should have been termed a "get together" was flagrantly referred to as "the congregation picnic"!!!
Then about 5 years ago (around here, US West Coast) more parties just for the sake of having a party started happening. Has anyone else noticed a similar trend?
Yeah...our congregation would organize a couple a year over the past 7 years, I'd say because that's all I've known of the witnesses is 7 years. They still do occassionally and there are smaller gatherings on a book study-size level as well.
Such senseless mascot on mascot violence.
Funny, tho.
i bought some for my husbands lunch.
they are in snack size....so i don't have to handle them.
well, problem is hubby doesn't want them at work cause it will give him "dorito breath".
that's actually not a bad idea. my wife does that at her office.

My wife and I find that the best solution to the dilemma of yummy Doritos vs. noxious breath is to eat them together. That way we somehow don't notice the other's breath as much.
Of course, we can't invite company over for a day or two....
My favorite snack that I can't put down are those fudge striped shortbread cookies. I'll eat about 16 in one sitting while reading a book...dipping them in milk, of course. And then I look at the recommended serving of 2 cookies and that they are like 500 calories for 1 serving.
I'd like to hear more comments on this transcript, if anyone is game.
I'm particularly enthralled by these KM QB topics. Things like these give me hope that my wife and some of our friends will see the light and leave the cult.
i hope it worked.
my intent with the title of this thread was to attract both believers and non-believers.
whenever a thread appears promoting the wonders of jesus, it will inevitably develop into a back and forth discussion ad nauseam.. i was born into a family that believed there was a god, he had a son jesus and his word was the bible.
Robin Hood Saves. Bollocks!
Nuh uh...Walmart Saves!

Jesus is the answer? What was the question?

Naw, I just came to leave a smart-alec comment.
But seriously, reading comments on this forum has probably influenced me towards non-belief if anything. I'm seeing things in a much larger context than I used to. I was raised Pentecostal. Then I had a brief spell of disillusionment followed by almost becoming an athiest. Then I converted to JW-dom as a kind of "last resort" only to finally see what the truth about the "truth" really was a few years later. Now I'm heading toward a comfortable "I don't really care what I believe at this point as long as I live well, contribute to others' happiness, and do no harm to anyone" mindset. The existance of God is taking a back seat at the moment while I explore subjects such as psychology, non-western religious worldviews, and my own deep inner musings.
Hope that contribution helps your curiosity.
