  Music of the 60's ... Peace Love and Understanding

  by Finkelstein in

  1. social
  2. entertainment

  retrospectively looking back at some the music that was being produced during .

  the 60's, 70's and even in the 1950's there really was a lot of good music without the.

  entailing commercial visual hype that so apparent in popular music today.. this was of course pre music videos, the music had to stand on its own to create its own public appeal.. whats some of the music that you fondly remember all you baby boomers ?

  exjw's of a certain age will remember randy's site well.

  freeminds was instrumental in waking me up along with ray franz's books.

  if net soup and armageddon okies mean nothing to you you're probably under 30.. whatever caused randy to post what he did recently is something i can only guess at but it won't be what i remember him for.. randy, i wish you well and thank you for all you've done over the years .

  The Amazing Teeth of the Great White Shark

  by LoveUniHateExams in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  great white sharks are able to subdue and eat almost anything they come across, thanks to their amazing teeth.

  consider: the great white shark (carcharodon carcharias) needs to catch and process food in order to survive.

  its teeth are remarkable, being arranged in rows and rows that move forward, like a conveyor belt, so that these animals always have a full set of functioning teeth at any one time.. furthermore, the shape of this shark's teeth changes throughout its life.

  my husband and i recently moved back to our hometown so we are back on the radar for the elders.

  we have been happily inactive the last few years.

  the other day a brother, who was once friends with my husband, and a substitute circuit overseer stopped in my husband's work for a shepherding visit if they still call it that.

  i did not realize at the time I was df what was going on only when I got a copy of the flock book from memory one instruction was don't have a judicial meeting unless your convinced the bro is guilty or words to that effect and that was my experience what they wanted was for me to accept their judgement and not defend my actions another section said not to attempt reproof Elder Les Holden did, got egg on his face with my reply I was then quickly sent out the room 5 minutes later called back in to be told I was DF and my wife to be publicly reproved then this GLORIOUS bastard PRINCE counselled my wife not to have anything to do with me of a spiritual nature setting in motion for her the fear of not simply spiritual endangerment but absolute later when giving council to my 10 year old son he offered to help him with any future talks because as he told him he no longer had a father THANKS LES you did me a favour Cause this experience led me to the ttat after 30 years of remaining loyal despite all the red flags

  JWs Harass their old members

  by StephaneLaliberte in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  while i am presently under training, i was looking at the definition of harassment in the work place according to the ontario (canada) government and found that, among the listed items, some of these could very well apply to the jws!.

  preventing a person from expressing himself or herself: yelling at the person; threatening; constantly interrupting that person; prohibiting the person from speaking to others.. making rude, degrading or offensive remarks.. discrediting the person by spreading malicious gossip or rumours, ridiculing him/her, humiliating him/her, calling into question his/her convictions or his/her private life, shouting abuse at him/her.. isolating the person by no longer talking to him or her, denying or ignoring his or her presence, distancing him or her from others.. destabilizing the person by making fun of his or her beliefs, values, political and/or religious choices, and mocking his or her weak points..

  I was called a bastard by one of my carers later she apologized I said don't be sorry you paid me a compliment cause you see me as a real person not simply a job that needs to be done we're good friends now steph if I may call you that the title of your thread could be considered harrasement of JW'S PUT a do in front of it pose it as a question rather than a statement of fact that can simply be dismissed as biased criticism or persecution OR excused GB member Jackson style well we're not as bad as the Catholics

  You know it's the Truth, because it attracts crazy people.

  by schnell in

  2. friends

  i wish i was kidding, but i have heard this idea suggested lately as a defense of the wts.

  this is god's organization, even though it attracts crazy people, and because it attracts crazy people.

  "unlettered and ordinary," et cetera.. i don't get it.

  WHEN I was a JW I was dogmatic and had all the answers re what I absolutely knew was true now I find the more I've learnt the less I know Confused by what i just said check out the thoughts expressed in a song I can fully relate to called Both sides now in keeping with the theme Who defines crazy? and how can I know if they are crazy or not?

  Beards - September 2016 Watchtower

  by Listener in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the issue of whether beards are acceptable or not is addressed in the september 2016 watchtower - well sort of.

  it is as clear as mud as to whether they are allowed in places like australia, usa and britain.. 17. what are some factors that may affect whether a brother wears a beard?17 what about the propriety of brothers wearing a beard?

  the mosaic law required men to wear a beard.

  When questioned about my wearing a beard I simply asked them a question have you ever tried to shave when you have acne rarther than be condemned by the Elders I had their sympathy no I did not have acne but not one of them thought to ask me that AT the time they also questioned my habit of leaving the hall and standing out the back during the meeting usually had company another bro to talk to my question ever tried sitting for a long time when you have piles hameroids not sure of spelling soon after this one of the Elders came up beside me after a meeting and simply whispered vasalene what says I you know says he your sitting problem ya gotta love them they mean well but O so gullable
