Texas Circuit Assemblies HELP!
by 4mylove inwell, i thought i had dodged the bullet this year, but the almighty sis in law apparently called my hubby to invite him to the assemble again this year.
he'd gotten an invite earlier this summer.. i had ironically just gotten of the phone with the mom in law, just to check in and see how everyone was doing.
sounds like i was involved in a power play.

Is there somewhere to look up where assemblies are being held. When I asked him when this one was, he said it was sometime this summer. I'm confused because I guess I didn't realize they went on all year. Do these go according to regions (east TX)? I thought I was done worrying about this crap for the year.
This year has actually been pretty tame when it comes to the whole JW issue. But of course lots of birthdays and holidays are right around the corner so the knots in the belly will start again,
One day this will all sleep a little longer.....

I hate District Convention time
by digderidoo ini had to pick my daughter up from my mothers yesterday after going to the district convention.
i hate having to listen to how my mother has bumped into so and so and they've been asking about me.. she bumped into some of my ex's family who stopped and chatted.
so two faced all of them.. it kind of gets my back up and i can feel anger coming up when i hear people who i used to respect asking after me, then if i were to walk past them in the street i know most of them would try to avoid me.. to top it all my mother has been dropping hints as to whether i will go with her.

I was pretty suprised that they didn't ask this year. Actually an old elder hubby used to know was the one asking this year. Sneaky bastards....

Big Love!!
by 4mylove indoes anyone here watch it?
the hubby and i watch it every sunday night.
it's interesting to see the similarities between mormons and jw's.. i noticed that they too have a tie to the east coast due to their prophet.. they are also a fairly new religion, 160 years i believe.. they also recieved a "divine" message from a human prophet.. do witnesses have places like the mormons due where you can visit their founders past life?

I can reject the emblems from the comfort of my sofa, thank you kindly.
by Nathan Natas insoon jehovah's witnesses will begin their annual ritual of inviting members of the public to participate with them in the rejection of the emblems representing the body and blood of the sacrificial "lamb of god," jesus christ.. the justification they offer for this bizarre practice is that only those who anticipate heavenly life should partake of these emblems.
since the vast majority of jehovah's witnesses believe their future is earthbound, most of the attendees at the memorial pass the wine and unleavened bread along without so much as a sip or a nibble, and the emcee of the event makes every effort to discourage participation by the unworthy.. witnesses say that the new testament is a message intended, not for mankind in general, but specifically for those spirit-begotten future heaven dwellers.
if that is the case, then jesus' admonition to "keep doing this in remembrance of me" is also directed at the anointed, not at the general hoi polloi who aspire to a terrestrial eternity.. like most of jehovah's witnesses, i reject the emblems, but i reject them because i'm an atheist, and i doubt that the biblical sacrificial jesus really existed.. i find that it is much more convenient for me to reject the emblems from the comfort of my sofa while watching the parables of fellow atheist seth macfarlane as revealed by the cartoon show family guy on my tv.. paradoxically enough, i can do this while consuming a pizza and a nice chianti, and i don't have to worry about who else has spread their germs on the cup i'm drinking from.. .

They shun family,
They believe they are superior to anyone that is not of their faith,
They fell or the words of a "prophet" and believe their words more than even the bible,
They believe the end is near, but then again what religion doesn't,
Just trivial stuff. I think the doctrines are very different, but the small stuff, similar.

Do Witnesses have places like the Mormons due where you can visit their founders past life? Or do they sway from that due to the controversy?
I found it so funny when Bill Paxtons character got into it with the other guy in the room. I was just waiting for one of the kids to jump on the bed!!!
