  Bee Population

  by onlycurious in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  has anyone heard about the new scare about the decline in the bee population?.

  i guess the bees are not returning to the queen bee and they are dying.

  trying to figure out why this is happening but if it doesn't turn around, all of us will be 'starving' in 4 years.

  Gas prices soon to pass $4.00 mark

  by free2beme in

  2. friends

  i remember last year, a lot of blame against the republican congress for doing nothing to stop big oil companies from raising prices.

  democrats are in office now, and no one seems to be saying anything.

  why are the democrats not being the night and shinning armor about gas prices?.

  i read most of the posts on here and i was just trying to get an understanding on certain topics.

  i read some peoples material and why they dont believe in the jw faith.

  i understand that some people left the jw faith and some people on here may never have been jws or believed in it, so i understand why you post and give info back and forth, but i have trouble understanding some of the disfellowshipped ones on here.

  Zeroday, I had been an elder before. The interesting part of this story is, I grew up with one of these elders, interesting isn't it? I'm glad it happened, I got to see their true colors. One of the interesting things about golf is, you move on !!!!!!

  BR. I understand your position. My last disfellowshipping was based on two elders not believing that I was repentant !!!!! They knew me better than I knew myself, well, that was it for me. It was also 'it' for my wife at the time. For elders to speak on my behalf, determing that I wasn't repentant, good-bye folks !!!!! I don't nor do I need a laundry list to leave the org.
  Every case is different.

  It's still not late. If you have extra cash it would be a smart thing to do. Start in small quanities. The best.

  Amazing how we cannot understand women whom we can see, and yet, understand God whom we cannot see ! I make it a practice to extract the positive out of negative experiences.

  Answer to your question, I did. My wife passed away a year today. We would have been married 44 years. We knew each other since childhood, 60 years. No regrets.

  Zeroday, I'm playing THEIR game and making the most of it !!!! I've played competitive sports all my life even when I was a JW. It's understanding the game that is fun even it's monopoly.
