  I need some friends...

  by lilyflor in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  being a born-in i don't have much friends, in or out of the org., add to that the fact that i have been a stay at home mom for the last 4 years has made it even harder to meet anyone.

  (i found out the truth about the wts shortly after deciding to stay home).

  if you would like to be a facebook friend, please pm me and i will send you my email address.

  since when did Jehovah become a common name?

  by lilyflor in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  growing up in the troof, my mom used to tell me that no one else in the universe had the name jehovah.

  i remember her even recounting an experience where a catholic couple wanted to name/baptize their son jehovah and the priest counselled against it.

  now i see all sorts of people with the name jehovah, on facebook, in the news and even in other languagues (the portuguese version jeova).

  hat tipping and rising when a woman leaves the table or enters a room......wt52 april 15 qfr.

  i dare say satan's ways are as mysterious as god's.

  (i now have to wonder if letting a woman on or off the elevator first is part of satan's schemes).
