how do you feel about the current slump in the housing market and it's impact on the stock market?.

Hey DragonLady76 is that a picture of Samuel Heard of the GB posted on your profile?
They knew this was coming. The same thing happened in Japan in the late 80's and 90's when they loosened the standards for getting a loan. Giving money to people with bad credit is very risky. Ask any crack head.

so i've been thinking about many of the different things the wts has put into effect this year in keep their strong hold on the flock: .
- a new edition of the watchtower for jws only that uses all of their insider terminology.
- individuals who are disfelloshipped, dissassociated, or have ceased association with the congregation should not receive the current literature.
I think next they will completely eliminate the New Testament and return to Old Testament style stonings for all trangressors.
NL
in the past, the watchtower put forth real effort to defend its beliefs and accomplishments such as.
the new world translation.
now, with the latest km, they simply confirm that they have left the field:.
I agree. Hopefully those who do drift away do it for reasons of sanity, freedom, and for the society's lack concern about the masses intellectual well being.

has anyone checked out this site?
i saw it advertised and finally followed the link the other day.
it seems exactly what the wts is commenting on in the 9/07 km.. has anybody actually used or heard of a congregation using this resource?.
Wow. Pretty nice website. That will help meeting attendance in many places around the world.

i didn't get a chance to read all the threads regarding the german km.
i just got off the phone with a bethelite who has a copy of the english edition of the 9/07 km.
it is the exactly the same.. he states that the bethelites are clueless.
Thanks jgnat.

He states that the bethelites are clueless. It didn't ruffle any of their feathers. He was very troubled by the scope of the society's reach. However by and large just another day at bethel.
Hope the masses in the field understand what' s going on when they get theirs

got up at 5am, got the hubby up, we dressed and went to the surgery center (oh yeah i didn't tell ya'll that hubby was to go in for vein surgery this morning), hubby had surgery and we were out of there by 10am.
went and got some crutches for hubby, van started making funny noises and the battery light came on.
went to target to pick up some stuff for the kids, left there and car sounds worst.
Hang in there Josie

here is the best that i could do, but i think it gets the main points of the articles across.
i wouldn't bet my life on this translation, but i think it is good enough for our purposes.
question box.
If the masses continue to submit to this type of control and manipulation to hell with them. Like some one said earlier, be an adult and get out.
I am so glad I cut my loses and got the hell outta there with some of my sanity left.

it's only my third day here so, go easy on me.
lol.. seriously, my new doubts have made it harder and harder to go in service.
a few months ago, when a new month rolled around, i realized that i hadn't actually gone in service at all the previous month.
I used to only report what I actually got. Pioneering, young and stupid. Some months only reported 30. The elders were all over my ass. My visibility was great. I could have put 90 down, no one would have questioned my time. I was out more than anyone. Life would have been alot easier not having to chase down those numbers.
That all changed with my young rebellious wife. She showed me the light. Time is just a number. We still send in fake time for political reasons, although we don't go.
