  Lions eating straw....is this possible?

  by highdose in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i recall a jw telling me that.... "they" meaning scientists, had done study's on lions in zoo's and discovered that if they gave lions straw and grass to eat that the lions became very passive and no longer showed predator behavior??

  now they never explained who "they" were, or were these "study's" had been done or why based on these study's lions are not now fed grass etc

  has anyone else heard this for real?

  JW boyfriend, the sequel

  by SEL in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  almost a year ago i made a few posts here about how much effort i ought to put into getting a man i loved considerably out of the wt.

  by that point i had already put in a lot of effort and accumulated a nice collection of books on the wt, on cults, on bible chronology.

  then i finally gave up and decided to leave.. we kept in pretty regular touch until last fall, when i moved a neat twelve time zones away.

  this peaked in 1998...since then publisher numbers for unknown reasons dropped dramatically!!!!.

  They are working hard with no progress for over 10 years......in the 1970's - 1990's publishers would rise by 10,000 or more a year.

  Do you think the Tsunami will be used as a "sign" and bring in more emotionally destressed people?

  I agree Moshe they want a push-over.....but I'm suprised how much pressure was put on a man who was clearly emotionally fragile, by all THREE, Rutherford, Franz and Knorr......where is the love.

  Thanks Possible-san......hard to imagine "Apostates" in Japan...the ones I met at the International Convention were like Samurai/Kamakazi Witnesses! Very, very dedicated and diciplined.

  2. experiences

  i love music - of many different genres and from different times.. .

  i love to play guitar, not to any great standard and purely for my own pleasure, and there are many pieces that really move me.

  'don't think twice' by bob dylan from my early teens is one that has stayed with me for 40 years.. .

  Let's get this PERFECTION thing out into the open

  by Terry in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  perfection implies two things: a purpose and a tool for the purpose.. the fork, by itself, is neither perfect nor imperfect.. a fork is perfect for eating peas but imperfect for eating soup.

  the purpose and the tool must match.. people are not, of themselves, imperfect.

  they are suited for or not suited for particular purposes.. .
