Your sister sounds like me in my teens. I was a "skater kid" for a 3 or 4 years and I only listened to punk such as NOFX, Rancid, Pennywise etc. Eventually, through stuff like Zeppelin, Floyd and other classic bands I got into Anthrax(thrash) Metallica, Megadeth, Iron Maiden. These are the essentials to any person who is a metal fan. I do like alot of things other than metal but it is usually my prefernce.

Here's a basic list of cool metal song to check out:

Megadeth: Tornado of Souls, Holy Wars, Peace Sells

Iron Maiden: Hallowed be thy Name, Seventh Son of a Seventh Son

Anthrax: Caught in a mosh, antisocial

I too started playing guitar when I was about 13 and was in a band composed of all inactive witnesses. I left it a few months ago. We played at bars, local music festivals. No elders ever said anything to us about it. It wouldn't have mattered if they did. The only thing they ever did mention to our drummer was all the drinking we did. We have a local brewery and we have a kergerator in our practice spot which usually has 2 different kinds of beer in it. Nothing was ever done to any of us, just said they heard it was a problem. No problems here!

No worries. I'm really not the type who corrects people and says, "Oh that's not metal. That's more hardcore with a twist of thrash and screamo." I really could care lesss for genre classification. I sometimes jab people who say that bands like papa roach are metal just to mess with them and make myself LOOK smart.

i always wondered why jw's were always so afraid of ouija(pronounced as "wee-yaw" not "wee-gee") boards.

does anyone have any speculation about who started these jw myths?.

anyone who has actually tried the board and would like to give their opinions are welcome.

My mother(JW) also tried burning one my older brother had. It also would not catch fire.

Upcoming Study with a Bethel Brother

by PSacramento in

so, after a lengthy discussion with my mom on friday, she asked me ( again) to have a study with a bethel brother because the question i ask are too "above" her knowledge and she feels that only a well trained bethel brother can show me the "truth".. i voiced to her my issue:.

i love my mother, father and sister that are jw's and the last thing i want is to lose them, we had already drifted apart because of their new found faith ( my mom was first, about 8 years ago, then my older sister and just recently, last july 4th, my dad), i told her that if i have these study with a bethel brother i will, most likely, sya thing and state sources that may get me brnaded as an "apostate", i asked her, to be honest and truthful with me and to tell me that, if i get branded that and they are told, suggest to them, to stop dealing with me, would they?.

she said that no organization tells her who to deal with, even more so in regards to family.. i was not convinced, nevertheless i agreed and this wednesday will have my first study with him, first topic the mwt, my issue with certain translations ( such as romans 10:13, colossians and so forth) and the name "jehovha".. .

Ask about 2 John 11-13 with regards to "greetings". This is the scripture the WT uses to justify never even saying "hello" to a DF'd person. The NWT renders 2 different greek words, with different meanings, as the same word in English.

The Watchtower 1988 May 15 p.27 says: "John here used khai´ro, which was a greeting like "good day" or "hello." (Acts 15:23; Matthew 28:9) He did not use aAspa´zoAmai (as in verse 13), which means "to enfold in the arms, thus to greet, to welcome" and may have implied a very warm greeting, even with an embrace. (Luke 10:4; 11:43; Acts 20:1, 37; 1 Thessalonians 5:26) So the direction at 2 John 11 could well mean not to say even "hello" to such ones."

This WT has it backwards. Khai'ro actually means "to enfold in the arms, thus to greet...".
