  ROFL @ Wuz.

  FTR, Jesus of Nazareth's remarks were directed to married Jewish males.

  Others can take them to heart, though.

  Peter in Babylon? - 1 Peter 5:13

  by Bobcat in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  for any looking over the wt study article for 3-30-2014, paragraph 9 refers to peter spending time in babylon.

  the paragraph speaks of peter living in babylon as if it were a well established fact.

  in fact, the only evidence for this idea is 1 peter 5:13.. see here for a writeup that analyzes 1 peter 5:13 and whether "babylon" really means the city of babylon.

  That's really all there is to it.

  Points of view which we can accept or reject.

  I like that.

  so as not to hijack logcon's thread about crazy things jw's have said to householders, i'd like to start one about just plain old odd jw's.. for example, i knew this dear, dear senior brother who would carry a small bag of peanuts in one pocket of his suit coat and a small plastic bag of brown sugar in the other.. during that time, we would stay out all day long because the territory was extensive.. can't you just picture that precious soul alternately tossing a few peanuts/crumbs of sugar into his mouth as he schlepped from house to trailer, from trailer to house?.

  the householders would usually offer us water, lemonade, kool-aid, or soda pops, so no problem with finding something to quench our thirsts.. those were the days!.

  [warning: this post contains spoilers!].

  i've been reading hawthorne's the scarlet letter.

  it is really quite an interesting read for us ex- and soon-to-be-ex-jws, especially if you or a loved one has ever been dealt with judicially by the elders.. i love the way hawthorne portrays the main characters:.

  Eccentric seems like a much kinder word than plain old weird.

  However, someone pointed out that eccentric is reserved for rich folk, so, weird is fine by me.
