The brother who gave the public talk on Sunday said
that people who are not Jehovah's Witnesses are
blinded by Satan. That sure made me feel special.
When new ones get baptized, then they must have
been blinded by Satan before they became JW's.
I wonder what unblinded them? If it was God then
why not unblind millions of more people? JW's like
to think how special that they are and how every one
else is under Satan's control. He also mentioned the
danger of singing or humming Christmas songs now
that we are nearing the Christmas season.

they are the only spiders known to be vegetarian..
all religions involve a measure of fantasy.
we all need some fantasy and seek it out in movies, novels, video games or other forms of entertainment.
danger arises when fantasy dominates our lives and pushes practical matters out of the way.. when the watchtower was 'young' as an organization, it attracted a large number of people who were accustomed to hard work and dealing with the practical challenges of economic depression and war.
you might be a jehovah's witness if you have never.
blown out birthday candles.. you might be a jehovah's witness if when you think.
about your summer vacation you think of the swimming.
You might be a Jehovah's Witness if you have never
blown out birthday candles.
You might be a Jehovah's Witness if when you think
about your summer vacation you think of the swimming
pool at the hotel where you will stay for the District Assembly.
You might be a Jehovah's Witness if you never played on
basketball, football, or soccer teams while you were in school.
You might be a Jehovah's Witness if you don't know what
a pine tree smells like in your house in December.
You might be a Jehovah's Witness if you have never been
to a R rated movie at a theater.
You might be a Jehovah's Witness if you have more suits
or dresses in you closset than casual dress clothes.
You might be a Jehovah's Witness if you quit a good paying
job because your employer required you to work overtime
on meeting nights.
You might be a Jehovah's Witness if when your were a child
you never got to watch cartoons on TV on Saturday mornings.
You might be a Jehovah's Witness if you would never ever
own a two door car.
You might be a Jehovah's Witness if you did not go to your
high school prom's.
You might be a Jehovah's Witness if you were offered a
college scholarship but turned it down.
All of the above just make me Sour Grapes!
this really happened?
cos really take the money and don't say, "put it in the contribution box?
" did you put it in there hand or in a card that they opened later?.
I usally folded up a $50 bill and gave the green handshake.
I also had numerous parts on the circuit assembly.

jw's make armegeddon sound so sterile with statements like:.
"when god brings an end to this old system.
" "when jehovah.
ATJ,
You are so right about the "us versus them." JW's also do not have a very deep thought
process mechanism since all of their thinking is done for them, from what to wear and
what to eat, to what is permisable in the bedroom with husbands and wifes.
They think that God is going to wack 99.9% of the earths population and then at
last Paradise. One little problem, what is going to happen to all of the dead bodies?
Not counting JW children, each JW adult will get to bury about 2,000 dead people.
And then we have the problem of cleaning up all of the destruction that is so
well illustrated in the Watchtower mags without electricty. What happens when
we get tired of siphoning gas out of the gas stations storage tanks and we run
out of fuel. Get the picks and shovels out and go at it. I can hardly wait.

Moshe,
I like your thought process. God can read ones heart condition to see who
will get wacked at the GT but can't see which memebers are having sex
with minors in the congregation.
This is why I am just Sour Grapes
jw's make armegeddon sound so sterile with statements like:.
"when god brings an end to this old system.
" "when jehovah.
JW's make Armegeddon sound so sterile with statements like:
"When God brings an end to this old system." "When Jehovah
intervenes in mankinds affairs." "At the conclusion of this system
of things.", etc, etc, etc.
Why not just say: When Jehovah slaughters every man, women, and
child who is not a Jehovah Witness. When God destroys 99.9% of
the worlds population. When God kills everyone who does not believe
in Watchtower doctrine even though they babies, children, or have
never even talked to a Jehovah's Witness.
Why don't they just tell the truth?

could it be that the proximity of 2014 is at the heart of it?.
i have no contact with jw's - except on this board - but my wife does at times with her family.
imminent is the cry of the sky for the jw's it seems.. i recall the years leading up to 1975 with a lot of that sort of thing.
We are in the last seconds of the last minutes of the last hours of the last days of the last
weeks of the last months.
