what is your favorite type of coffee drink?.
i don't know too much about all these different kinds.. how does steamed milk affect the flavor as opposed to cold cream?
or is it a 'temperature thing' that makes the difference?.
I buy their Breakfast Blend whole beans for my Automatic coffee maker and grind some up usually in the evening ,
set it to start up in the morning and wallah.
I've pretty much have been doing this for the last 7 or 8 years now.
Give it a try it is a mild roast, just right for the morning.
i am reading the presentation of the self in everyday life by erving goffman at the moment.
it sheds much light on the experience of 'performing' the role of being a jehovah's witnesses: how a witness will strictly adhere to watchtower standards when we are 'frontstage' with an audience either of peers or outsiders, and how they may relax those standards when they are 'backstage', not in a setting where their fidelity to the identity of 'jehovah's witness' is being scrutinized.. an interesting point it makes is that we can present our roles either with 'sincerity' if we believe in the performance as much as we would have the audience, or with 'cynicism' if we perform our role without believing in it, but expecting that the audience will.
but rather than being a neat spectrum from sincerity, through ambiguous sincerity, all the way to cynicism, goffman argues that a performer will tend to one extreme or the other: either believing utterly in the role he is presenting, or presenting it totally without conviction for the benefit of the audience only.
Pretentiously righteous at the Kingdom Hall , quite wordily and apathetic outside of it in their personal character
the only differance I found between them was some were capable of leaving the white sheet longer over themselves than others.
why is it that on jw discussion boards, anyone who brings up difficult issues or questions will soon be banned from the site, while sites like this one where debate and discussion are encouraged, we welcome believing jws with open arms?.
of course, most of us here know the answer to that!
but it is something to take note of, and to mention when you get a chance.. there was a recent post about a jw group on facebook.
The typical JWS is indoctrinated with fear to not question the authority of the JWS, to do so is said to be evil and apostate,
against gods organization that he lovingly provided .... bla ...bla
Fear is the out most controlling factor with JWS on any analytical thought or discussion regarding
the doctrines coming out of Brooklyn, thinking outside the box is strongly controlled and regulated,
also its considered being weak. Being in subjection to the GB is a sign of spiritual strength, worthy of praise.
The Gods in Brooklyn are very strong indeed and they're more than willing to show their strength at any given time.
So all heed the warning.

the 1963 book babylon the great has fallen: god's kingdom rules is now online:.
http://www.strictlygenteel.co.uk/babylon/babylontitles.html.
this book was the authoritative interpretation of revelation chapters 14 to 22 up until the revelation book came out.
Isn't amazing what some religious kooks with barely any kind of education will dream up and actuality put into print.
Yes the UN is such a disgusting evil empire
