  These are hilarious! You guys are way more quick-witted than me! I remember most of these mags first time round so seeing them like this is really funny.

  Well done to all!

  I've just checked Aug and Sep Awake. No black girl on p12 of either but on p26 of both.
  I'd love to help but don't have a scanner. Sorry!

  Resoltions at the cong

  by Iwonder17 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so last night, our cong asked us to pass a resolution.. what i noticed was, the elder reads the resoltion and then asks for everyone in favor, while he is looking down.. all of the dubs just raise their hands, and before even looking up, th elder says, ok, we'll approve this and send it off.. what a joke !!

  why even bother.

  just make the rules and tell them people, don't give them the illusion that they have a say in the matter.

  What is YOUR bible of choice?

  by gloobster in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  although i'm pretty much an atheist, i still like reading the bible.

  it's an amazing literary masterwork to say the least.. my question is, after discovering that the new world translation of the wts was poorly translated and altered in ways designed to support their various peculiar doctrines (see john 1:1, etc.

  ), what bible translation are you all the most fond of?.

  I like the "Children's Living Bible". Its got very interesting footnotes such as the mention of blood being in relation to animals in Acts and the fact that the number of the beast is 616 not 666 (anyone see the episode of QI that mentioned that?).

  It modernizes things so its not a direct translation. Instead of x talents of gold it gives a dollar amount and instead of saying "You son of a good for nothing maiden" it says "You son of a bitch"!

  My First Post!!!

  after a year of reading all of your experiences and expressions i decided it was time for me to start sharing some of mine.

  hopefully they can benefit others, like many of yours have benefited me!

  being raised in the wtbts, the jehovahs witness docrine and culture really was the prism from which all of my experiences and understanding of life originated.

  Welcome!

  So what was the story about the smurfs being demonic? When we were kids, we didn't have many channels so we watched the Smurfs on S4C, a welsh channel! So that was pretty freaky coz we hadnt a clue what they were saying! :D
