Reniaa .... Theocratic school assignment... "use of effective and convincing argument - use of reason "...when
speaking you are to consider background and position of your audience so as not cause needless
offense ! How can you not see that if you in effect place at thorn under a horses saddle you cannot expect
a smooth ride home ? Your words flow out of you like a waterfall but you fail to use passion or understanding.
The talk of praying for people seems not to ring true to me... if compassion is not found in addressing us
then why should we expect it in any would-be prayer ? All I hear is judgement and condemnation !

I do not think it is a lie so no i'm not being a hypocrite, not in the same way OOTB is.
Actually I only know of one kind of hypocrite ....but I do not wish to judge you one way or the other
but think you would be best advised also to follow this same line of thought . If you keep pounding
your head on a cement wall how many other people ever see your point ?
R. is a master at deflection and redirection a good political trait but what about for religion ?

World Hopes for a 'less arrogant America'
by Sunnygal41 inworld hopes for a 'less arrogant america'william j. kole and matt moore, associated press writers william j. kole and matt moore, associated press writers 2 hrs 8 mins ago</form> ap a basketball scoreboard shows the date of tuesday's election at the site of an obama-biden rally at longview berlin the world was riveted by the election drama unfolding tuesday in the united states, inspired by barack obama or simply relieved that whoever wins the bush administration was coming to an end.. from berlin's brandenburg gate to the small town of obama, japan, the globe geared up to celebrate a fresh start for america.. in germany, where more than 200,000 flocked to see obama this summer as he moved to burnish his foreign policy credentials during a trip to the middle east and europe, the election dominated television ticker crawls, newspaper headlines and web sites.. hundreds of thousands prepared to party through the night to watch the outcome of an election having an impact far beyond america's shores.
among the more irreverent festivities planned in paris: a "goodbye george" party to bid farewell to bush.. "like many french people, i would like obama to win because it would really be a sign of change," said vanessa doubine, shopping tuesday on the champs-elysees.
"i deeply hope for america's image that it will be obama.".

revert to an isolationist stance
The world is so intertwined economically just look at the recent markets crash ! Is isolationism
even an option ? It is like two prisoners shackled together you have to co-operate to get anywhere ... like it or lump it !

So why ARE women allowed to speak at congregation meetings?
by easyreader1970 inthe apostle paul said that women should be silent in congregation meetings and not flap their traps.
if they need to talk about something, they can talk about it with their husband when they get home.
so why does the wbts pick and choose which verses they apply and which they do not?

The difference between preaching and teaching... that fine invisible line .
If you must manipulate things just to fulfill some scriptural obligation of what value is it ?
If for example you wear a paper napkin head-cover how great an Honor is truly shown ?

Interesting Local Needs Talk: Don't Invite Studies To "Our" Get Togethers
by minimus ini heard that the most recent local needs talk was regarding the evils of having non witnesses at "our" gatherings.
since there's nothing really for "us" to talk to "them" about, and since "their" conversation will not involve anything to do with "the truth", we should guard against "worldly" association.
it appears that the cult wants their members totally removed from anyone not a witness.

On the other hand it does rather belie the anti-cult claim that JWs love bomb people to convert them. This is the opposite of love bombing strategy: treat 'em mean in order to attract them into formal association I suppose
But the love-bombing only starts as you pass through the KH doorway threshold ! You don't reel in the fish til he's
hooked and tugging on the line ! ....... LOL ~~Cal
