so true, ADCMS, many people overlook what they said. They would murder if only the pesky government allowed it ( coming soon to America, Sharia law, the jws prayer answered).

Being limited by the laws of the worldly nation in which we live and also by the laws of God through Jesus Christ, we can take action against apostates only to a certain extent, that is, consistent with both sets of laws. The law of the land and God’s law through Christ forbid us to kill apostates"

George Harrison's last interview on VH1 1997 I find his views interesting but can't totally incorporate it really as my view is solidly Christian. I thought he was the most interesting Beatle. I found his views very comforting.

The attack on his life and his death 2 yrs later were beyond the pale.

I see Julian apparently got dissed again at the Grammy's. What is left of the Beatles was there, even that witch Yoko was there. She as up dancing to a tune. Next to her is Sean and he is good looking, lots of hair. I wondered why they are disowning Juliann.

I have seen some pics of Julian of late and he is balding. None of us know what John would have looked like at 50 so not sure whose side of family he gets that from. He looked a bit puffy in the face. I just can't imagine why they wanted to kick him out of the family. Even Paul , who I understood always had a close relationship with him , did not invite him to his wedding. Obvious snub.

I'd just turned 13 when the Beatles appeared on Ed Sullivan show. I still laugh at how stern Sullivan was. The audience must behave,no excessive screaming and acting crazy. I wish I could find that clip of him chastising all of the girls for screaming so much.

My parents barely let me watch the show and made snide remarks during it- they were stupid looking, "you call that music?" , they looked liked f*gs, they were from Satan and surely the end in near. I could not scream too much or they would have turned it off.

It was too late, we were all smitten. I chose my Beatle like this- Paul was too pretty, John was too smart, George was the quiet one and I almost picked him but in the end, it was Ringo I picked. ( " ... let the drummer tell your heart what to do.." ( r&r dreams come through, ML)

I got to listen to them on the radio and even that was monitored.

It really was a British invasion and we loved them all. In the end I found I really liked the Stones best ( more sheer rock and roll) but the Beatles White album brought me back to them.

George's death was more painful for me than John's. I had ceased to like John due to his nasty rotten attitude toward his son Julian. George was the most interesting one in the group , I felt. Who knew pretty Paul would be the family man and stay happily married and have a bunch of kids? In the end Paul turned out to be the responsible one in the group.

I guess we will never forget the Beatles , it was a moment in time. I am 13 again and in love with Ringo when I remember it all.

Should I Tell a Witness that I Am an Apostate?

by Band on the Run in

i sometimes join discussion groups.

the witnesses do get mentioned.

i try to make it humorous but some bitterness seeps through.

I have noticed that if you are an X anything and post on an X board, most assume you have an Axe to grind. However, it could be a sure fire way to get rid of her by telling her you are an apostate. She may run like the wind.

I once got into this on another board and up popped several others who either had an positive experience with jws or a relative . It can go either way depending on so many factors. Easier to say nothing but not always possible.

Planting seeds of thought with my JW doctor

by Faithful Witness in

i have hesitated to post anything about my recent encounters with our jw doctor, because i don't really want anyone to insult her or me, for continuing to rely on her for medical care.

our family doctor is a jehovah's witness.

we were referred to her by our former bs conductor.

If they ever suggest the new system is the cure for everything, run don't walk to a "worldly " doctor. I am not making this up. Also as in everything else, when you hire jws or work for them it is hard to say you are not happy with their services. Frequently you not only don't get the service you paid for and you lose a friend and may end up talking to an JC. Also you may think it is all confidential, but in the past jws medical folks have compromised others privacy . I would never see a doc who was fanatical about any religion. Basically, if I walk into their office and see Bibles or other religious objects all over the place I - RUN out the door. I would suggest you consider this too. The office staff at some docs office will spread "news" of your current medical conditions around. I know you are thinking " NO F"ing way ", but Yes it has happened and continues. they are just sneakier now.
