Quitting smoking (again)
by DanTheMan ini managed to stay off the bloody things for over 2 1/2 yrs but alas i fell off the wagon in september.
my plan is to ramp-down today by only having a cig every two hours or so, then cold turkey tomorrow.
i have a hard time holding myself to 'quit days' when i'm the only one who knows what day it is, hence i'm making it public so that i feel more accountable.

When You Were A JW Did You Prefer A Body of Elders or 1 Presiding Overseer?
by minimus inyears before the elder arrangement, there was only one presiding overseer or congregation servant.
he was thee man.
when i was growing up, we had 2 different men that held that position in the years i was in the hall.

Your past friends and associates in the truth - where are they now?
by truthseeker init'd be interesting to see what's happened to friends, associates and kingdom hall buddies since leaving the organisation.. .
a friend - someone you have a personal friendship with.
an associate - someone you hang out with in groups but have no personal relationship with.

What do you think about the Muratorian Canon?
by Awakened at Gilead inin doing research on this subject, i noticed that the society uses this fragment as a basis for the canon of the nt.
theevidenceofearlycatalogs.
a glance at the accompanying chart reveals that a number of fourth-century catalogs of the christian scriptures, dated prior to the above-mentioned council, agree exactly with our present canon, and some others omit only revelation.

Why are JW's afraid of dear old Ray?
by wobble inno active dub will read "crisis of conscience" by ray franz because it is "apostate".
now if it is truly apostate,in the sense of being scripturally wrong then the wt has had 20 years or more to expose it,same as if it is factually wrong.. if it is neither, then the wt has had 20 or so years to put their house in order,so reading it now,dubs should say "oh yea we've changed that,so no worries".
so why can't they read it now?.

When I joined the board earlier this year,
your threads were among the first,
if not the first, I read in the archives.
I even printed a few of them down.
(What does that say about me)
Write a book.
(Easy for me to say)
You always have made me think,
even when what you had to say was pure acid.
