  Dont get too excited, its just Blood cards but repackaged.
  
  They now have two types, one for those with an enduring guardian, and one for those who dont, also, there is more options for things you ill and will not have.

  Lab rats.

  it always bugged me the way the jws would explain the "universal question".

  it always sounded to me like if we were all in some sort of cruel experiment to just prove a point, that apparently he (jehovah) already knows the outcome not that it's important because he is all powerful and he can change the outcome to fit his desire.. what do you all think?.

  Hey V,
  
  IM still active and I sense a change, seriously......they have a WT that does not have any guilt trip about going to the elders for sin, the Reasoning book has always said this and when its printed in a WT, it has always had the little disclaimer that you have to confess to elders, it doesnt say it here.
  
  Billy, I did deserve a bit of a flogging, Its just the Nosferatu has been out for 12 years, and was never really in, so his comments wound me up, its easy to criticize!!
  
  Finally after all the talk in the writing Dept/ about losing guilt as motivation, it happens, encourage it.

  Nosferatu, i break my vow of silence to say that finally a watchtower points to the correct from of motivation, love.
  
  Especially regarding service to Jehovah, meeting attendance and confession.
  
  If you have missed the point, then I say boo hoo!!!
  
  I hope this org has realized where they have gone wrong and try to correct it, stay tuned!!
  
  Never before have they mentioned sin and not "commanded" one to confess to the elders, they only mention ones obligation to confess to Jehovah to me , thats progress.
  
  Nosferatu, get the point, a hair cut and a life.

  my incredibly sweet and intelligent girlfriend busted me on this site.

  i have talked to her about most of my issues with the wbts and told her about the site, but due to the very strong similarity between my conversations and my posts, she has cracked open the case like the little detective she is.

  i started telling her about a post i had put up tpday and how after quite a few months i have decided that religion is a piece of art and you cant argue over it, anyway half way through telling her she actually stopped me and said she had already read it along with all of my other posts.

  My incredibly sweet and intelligent girlfriend busted me on this site.
  
  I have talked to her about most of my issues with the WBTS and told her about the site, but due to the very strong similarity between my conversations and my posts, she has cracked open the case like the little detective she is.
  
  I started telling her about a post I had put up tpday and how after quite a few months I have decided that religion is a piece of art and you cant argue over it, anyway half way through telling her she actually stopped me and said she had already read it along with all of my other posts.
  
  And as a result I had a very entertaining bookstudy.
  
  Firstly, in a post ages ago, the thread asked for "JW buzz words you hope you will never hear again, I wrote: WE COME TOGETHER AS A GROUP OF YOUR PEOPLE..........(PRAYER)
  
  In the opening prayer....yep you guessed it, the Bro said that word for word!!! She gripped my hand tighter and started laughing.....I realized straight away she had seen that post.
  
  Then I was asked to read and she wrote on a piece of paper .......I dont mind as long as you dont role your eyes.....at the "R&F" and we were trying not to laugh through the first paragraph.
  
  That is such a JWD term!!!
  
  Anyway, all is good, she has seen me go through all sorts of thoughts and I have driven her mad with ideas and scandals and she takes it all very well.
  
  Im at a point now where I feel this site has given me a map but not and answers, I have looked at things from both points of view and will continue to do so however my time here is done.
  
  My post from earlier today summed it up, we have no proof that God exists, whether or not blood is allowable or not, whether the bible is accurate or even real, whether 1914 is accurate or anything, its all faith based.
  
  There are some sweet people here, some very clever people and some funny buggers that like to cause trouble and I wish you all the best.
  
  See you all in the new system!!!! ;-)

  I am slowly coming to the conclusion that any debate on the scriptures is a waste of time.
  
  Its like this, we all find a piece of furniture from IKEA and its all put together wrong.
  
  The instructions were impossible to read in the first place, but they were lost, then found in a wall, then lost again, then translated from a mysterious language, then argued over, people killed and were killed over, then we ll stand around with 45 different versions of how to put the furniture together correctly and wonder why we argue ( putting IKEA furniture together is a recipe for divorce at the best of times)
  
  I say wait for the designer of the furniture to come back and sort it out, until then just say its a piece of art.

  Key Findings – The Symantec Identity Survey
  - Australians typically have more than 10 online profiles or ‘virtual identities’
  - 20 percent of Australians believe that their online identities are closer to their ‘true self’, than their real-world identity (amongst Australian online ‘power users’ of social networking sites, dating sites, virtual worlds or gaming sites, this figure jumps to 40 percent)
  - 77 percent of Australians believe that people share more information about themselves online, than they do in the real world
  - The majority of Australians provide personal information in the public online domain that could put them at risk of online identity theft
  - The survey found that nine out of 10 Australians aged between 16 and 49 are Internet users

  Loved your comment Dagney, so true.
  
  They collect from the silenced to fight the silencers, just so they can convert more people to silence.
  
  Can someone represent that mathematically for me?
