Dour faces

by AK - Jeff in

i took today off work due to a family reunion.

at around 0845 i found myself in the local mickeydee's for a coffee.

while sitting there almost ready to go, in walks a tall, very unhappy looking man, followed by his son [i assume] of about 12. the man was dressed like jw's sans the jacket - the boy in a full suit.. what struck me was the absolute look of unhappiness on both faces.

sad, too, is the fact that the boy is being groomed , and is probably already considered, "exemplary" in the congregation. How I despise that word!

16:7-11.. *** scriptures inspired p. 82 par.

(a) how did jehoshaphat and judah receive direction?

what about josiah, did he always follow direction?.

thanks for your thoughts, Blondie. Many of the same ones occurred to me while I prepared for the meeting today. Keep up the good work and I enjoy the way your brain power puts things to words.

all of that word trivia just blows me away. I was just complaining to my wife yesterday about the fruit/fruitages big deal. Why so word-picky? It's Pharisaical. She said that the reason I don't appreciate the refinement is because I'm not a "spiritual person."

Off to a JW "Gathering"

by treadnh2o in

i have not been to a meeting this year.

yet i was invited to a witness "gathering" through my wife and kids.. i really don't want to go.. however, if my reason for not going is because of someones religion, i am really no different than they are.. guess i need to go based on principal.. i won't change my mind, but am interested in your take on this situation.. .

I always made it a point to spend time with non-believing husbands and all that ilk. First of all, I myself have always been more comfortable with ones who don't feel that they have to say the right things. Secondly, I like to put them at ease.

wt march 1 2009 page 3. the ancient babylonians,for example, believed that human affairs are influenced by the stars and their movements.. should `are' be `were'?.
