  Words for the Day; please share

  greetings, word lovers:.

  in my job, i work with words and wrangle them into shape, well, in a manner of speaking.

  one word might be mistaken for another, a word with either a similar or identical sound.

  you have got to read this article http://thoughtcatalog.com/shahida-arabi/2016/06/20-diversion-tactics-highly-manipulative-narcissists-sociopaths-and-psychopaths-use-to-silence-you/.

  it is long but when you read this you will understand the gb and others in charge of the watchtower society.

  i'm sure all of us have known people in our own lives that fit in one of the descriptions.

  Striking Out On My Own

  by Saethydd in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  those of you who know my story are aware that i'm currently disfellowshipped and living with my parents.

  up until now, my plan has been to be reinstated and then fade, but recently my plans have changed.

  in a conversation with my mother a few days ago and she made it clear that she would not be okay with me getting reinstated with the purpose of going inactive.

  my spouse and i have faded 4+ years ago.

  we know the jw rumor mill has gotten back to our family that we no longer attend.

  most of our family is out of state.

  My last meeting was 13 years ago; I'm not DF or DA; my JW sister and my JW daughter have never shunned me.

  As I've mentioned before, it just doesn't happen here.

  Proverbs 27:2 Don't call attention to yourself; let others do that for you. The Message Bible

  I often wondered why WT wouldn't take the advice of the proverbialist.

  Would make me cringe to read or hear their boasting.

  WTWizard is on point with his description of them.

  uc berkeley administrators canceled a scheduled speech by right-wing pundit ann coulter, saying they can’t protect participants from rioting if it goes ahead.

  now i am no ann coulter fan (although the sjw police on here will accuse me of being a fan shortly after posting this), but i am a fan of free speech!

  Circumcision....Perfect Adam....Uncircumcised....1st century Christians...circumcision ont required

  by blondie in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i know this has been discussed many times, but i was watching a news story about female genital mutilation (not female circumcision) and segued mentally into why the hassle about male babies having to be circumcised, christians especially.

  even the wts flipflops on this...... if adam, the first perfect man, not under the jewish law code, was given a foreskin by god as an aspect of his physical perfection, why then do so many "christian" people have their boy babies circumcised?.

  if a health issue....why did god create the perfect man, adam, with a foreskin?.

  I recall an article (can't remember if WT or AW) in which the writer explained that he and wife decided against circumcising their premature baby.

  One thought that stands out starkly is the fact that they were going to instruct him very carefully in matters of hygiene.

  My JW sister referenced that article when she also chose not to have her preemie circumcised.

  Memories ...
