with the watchtower study about helping 'lost sheep' return, i have been half expecting a visit.
i have mentally rehearsed how i should handle the situation, which is fairly tricky as i still have family in.
but no call yet.

But no call yet. I just don't think they are really bothered - they just give lip service to love and concern but in reality they just answer what is expected at the Watchtower study. They are no different from any other 'Sunday Christians'.
from the fabulous joni mitchell who sings and looks like an angel.
i am sure for many of us who placed our dreams with the watchtower's empty promises, it is the perfect anthem.. .

There can be no better anthem for X-witnesses ..... unless of course you can suggest a better one.

as i mentioned on another thread , it was very uncommon to ever get any commendation or recognition for any " good" accomplishments i ever did.
you know the jesus expression, " we are good for nothing slaves- what we have done is what we ought to have done.
" ridiculous.
No but I was raised by a Ministerial Servant and I must say that overall I had a great childhood. I became and elder myself and raise 4 kids in the 'truth' But I could see the whole thing starting to fall apart for kids. As a kid growing up I had lots of privileges and responsibilties but I saw nothing for my kids; general the organisation has no regard for young ones today - they certainly don't trust them.
I have encouraged by kids to go to University and get an education. That was one of the many reasons I decided to leave.
i just got back from seeing it and it is fantastic.
all i can say is go see it!.
it was so moving, kept me gripped for the whole time and now i wanna go to india.. also the leading lady, frieda pinto is beautiful..
We went to see it last week and really enjoyed it.
We have been to Mumbai 5 or 6 times, and we lived in India in the late 90's so have a feel for the location and the culture. A very clever put together story and the acting from the kids was outstanding. Finally, don't jump up to go when the credits start at the end or you'll miss the only Bollywood style song and dance routine at the end.
i was an advocate of the idea that a sea landing is beyond impossible for any pilot.
some years ago terrorists hijack a plane in africa and demand to be flown to australia.
the pilot runs out of fuel at the sychelles islands and ditches in the sea with most passengers dead or drowned.
Looks to me like the trick was to get it perfectly level at the point of impact. Perhaps it helped it was a river and not the sea.
i resent the implications that are attached to it by the organisation.on a spiritual sence it means nothing to me.. .
I am no longer a JW but I still regard myself as a spiritual person. I am not sure where that spirituality will lead me and I don't practice any religion at present.
I got baptised before the change of vows, I didn't regard my baptism as identifying me as one of JWs, so I regard my baptism of over 40 years ago as the start of my spiritual journey.
a very true and inspirational speech by steve jobs.
the things he speaks about is exactly what the gb don't want you to experience.. .

"Death clears out the old to make way for the new". How true - apart from the WTB&TS were the old are simply replaced by clones of themselves.
mine are.

I loved Tahiti - great place and great place.
Been to many of the World Heritage sites in India.
Jaisalmer in India, on the border with Pakistan is totally magically!
The Himalayas are breath taking.
There are just some great places in the world yet for us to find them - those are our dream destinations!
