Why? Does it... *gasp*... does it... actually exist?
THEN JESUS MUST BE REAL! AND HE MUST BE OUR SAVIOR!
Shit, i better get to church immediately!
so jesus regularly attended meetings for worship (they don't specify which kingdom hall) and may have been thinking about psalm 40:6-8 (in the new world translation i suppose).
7 jesus showed his keen interest in spiritual things by regularly attending meetings for.
worship.

i have noticed that quite a few people here swear and use profanity.
an elder once told me this is quite common in the congregations he has been in.
i was raised in so never allowed to swear and never got into the habit.
I found young j-dubs i knew swore more than regular kids.
when you were a jw, did you pray regularly with your spouse?
what about a "family study"?.
i was a pioneer and ministerial servant, but praying with somebody was always the most awkward, uncomfortable thing ever.
The last time that we had j-dub family over, around last christmas i think, inevitably a prayer was said before dinner. Throughout the prayer i kept my eyes open & ate my food. Then, when the prayer was finished i said: "Thanks for the food mum, it was you who cooked it afterall."
It's crazy when you think about it. Someone spends possibly hours cooking a dinner, only to be ignored whilst God to be thanked for it once it's ready. It makes me feel a bit sick thinking about it actually.

Snowbird, if you still believe in all that jesus stuff then you're no better than the witnesses & no brighter.
so i had to suffer through the ca last weekend, it was rough at 1st, i was actually sick to my stomach the night before, fortunately my little boy kept me occupied during the session and i got to walk around a lot.. the do cracked down on 'true christians' watching vampire movies aka....twilight.
i know this series is hugely popular with a lot of teens and 20somthings, even a young elder and his wife (mostly the wife) are really into them.. he said true christians just don't watch such things.
haha.

I'm so glad i don't go to these awful 'assemblies' anymore.
exposing all of the false prophet's!.
if one looks closely at the following two scriptures, they will see that paul is here telling us, that it is jesus who is appointed over god's house.
if you look even closer you will also see that paul is also telling us, that as a body, all the heavenly calling together constitute the house itself.
Innit.
i've always been told that i have a very good personality, that i'm humorous, etc.. one elder called me over and said that i was "smiling too much".
the other elders talked to the elder who counseled me and he came back to say that i should be like i was .
.
I was never counseled for anything, no one there gave a fuck about me.
**disclaimer** i'm an atheist.... atheism is not a faith, it is not a religion, it is not a belief system...what do atheist and believers have in common...nothing.
so why do atheist seem it necessary to argue, fight and debate believers.
what is to be gained, a new nonbeliever...i have never understood it.
Freydo, even consider that what is written in the bible might actually be uninsightful or just plain wrong?
okay here is my thread to discuss this.
i believe the bible is inspired by god and reliable.
many argue it's neither.
PSacramento, we're clever here, we see through lies, don't try it.
