  did anyone here claim to be of the anointed and partook of the emblems at memorial when you were still a witness???

  if so, was there really a force telling you, you were special and would go to heaven?

  or was it more so overjoy at how spritual you though you were?

  debator Ray never denied that he made a profit from his books, I can respect his honesty . Can the wbts also claim to have never engaged in financial fraud? Careful please be honest

  Hi Wiser 2 Thessalonians 3:14 If anyone does not obey our instruction in this letter, take special note of him. Do not associate with him, in order that he may feel ashamed. This is from the NIV what is Paul saying here? Hi sharah Jesus told his apostles to wipe their feet from the dust of those that didn't believe. The apostles told us the following about unbelievers. 2 Corinthians 6:14 Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness?

  Interesting debator you use these two scriptures to justify not associating with unbelievers, yet you frequently engage in debate/ associate with us on this board. Rather hypocritical of you !!!

  Interesting experience on SL...JeHOvah's Witness and I have an encounter

  i go to a women's discussion group on sl, second life, which is a virtual community where you do all sorts of things, including entertainment, discussion groups, media, and just socializing through the use of animated avatars which can be quite realistically human or whatever you want them to be, really, aliens, elves, dragons, vampires, etc.. anyway, a woman there brought to the discussion a situation where she had her real life husband wants to divorce her for a witness woman he had met..and get this...she had come to his door after the couple separated and offered him a bible study, and apparently instead, it turned into a romance and then, according to the woman, her husband and this woman are hitting the sheets.

  (you're not supposed to call on the opposite sex alone, and do doubt this is one reason...too many lonely witness women who'd jump on the first piece of dude they meet!

  lol).

  I work at the closest hospital to Bethel and have seen the ambulance many times. Interesting side point one of the Dr,s who agreed to to bloodless surgury, on a witness from bethel ,was actually sued for post surgical complications. He vowed never to agree to treat another witness .

  i'm sure topics like this have already come up but they tend to get hilarious with the absolute absurdity that goes on in the kh.

  i was once counseled for not shaving after two days.

  i was also counseled by a sister for eating lucky charms cereal.

  very interesting since nowhere in the dictionary is the scum described as what the co contended it was. Perhaps he was just afflicted with a dirty mind.

  Main Entry: 1 scum Pronunciation: \ ' sk?m\ Function: noun Etymology: Middle English, from Middle Dutch schum; akin to Old High German scum foam Date: 14th century

  1 a: extraneous matter or impurities risen to or formed on the surface of a liquid often as a foul filmy covering — compare pond scum 2 b: the scoria of metals in a molten state :drossc: a slimy film on a solid or gelatinous object
  2 a:refuseb: a low, vile, or worthless person or group of people

  — scum·my \ ' sk?-me\ adjective

  1 Boy, Boy

  2 Boy, Girl

  3 Girl, Boy

  4 Girl, Girl <-- this is the only case that is excluded

  there is a problem with your logic gl , 2 and 3 are equal solutions hence 1 there are only two possible solutions, this makes it a 50 % chance of it being 2 boys

  as far as proving statutory rape all that need be required is a dna match with the `18 yr old boy friend and the baby. proving abuse will be much more difficult,

  Here is a link in case you want to sign the guest book Raymond Victor Franz Born in Kentucky on May 8, 1922 Departed on Jun. 2, 2010 and resided in Winston, GA.

  On June 2nd, Raymond V. Franz (88) passed away peacefully due to the effects of a fall and subsequent brain hemorrhage suffered on May 30, 2010. Ray is survived by his wife, Cynthia. A minister, missionary and Biblical scholar for over 70 years, Ray is the author of a number of books including CRISIS OF CONSCIENCE and IN SEARCH OF CHRISTIAN FREEDOM. Ray and Cynthia served as Jehovah's Witness publishers, then missionaries in the Caribbean and at the Watchtower Society's Worldwide Headquarters for over 20 years. Ray was appointed to numerous positions within the organization including serving on the Board of the Governing Body, the ruling group within the organization. Ray was involved in writing countless articles, tracts and books within the organization including The Aid to Bible Understanding (Aid Book). While researching Bible facts, Ray and the research committee recognized that numerous organization doctrines conflicted with scripture. In 1980, Ray took a final stand on Biblical Issues and separated from the organization. For the past 30 years Ray has lived his life peacefully dedicating himself as a husband and friend with the purpose of helping countless people to a fuller appreciation of God and the Bible. He will be dearly missed.

  be very careful they will claim that this line constitutes your intent to disassociate

  My spirituality is between me and my heavenly Father . I wish to be left alone and allowed to seek that journey on my own .
