Well, I (unfortunately) do not know any women personally who have "evolved" in this manner.

Mulan, we should thank Simon each day..... prophetically pictured, he is God* to this board, and Angaharad pictures his wife-like organization.
*In Exodus 4:16, Moses is spoken of as being "God" to Aaron. So I figure Simon can be "God" to this board.

QUALIFIED ELDERS---WHERE ARE THEY?
by minimus inlately, more and more elders are either resigning or being deleted.
a few elders have been known to be "good elders", brothers that really did care about the flock more than the organization.
some that are presently elders are having their own crisis of conscience.most elders that i have come to know are quite simply, not that bright.

I served with some who I thought really did care and were pretty down to earth guys.

Honda vs. Oldsmoble
by Larry inbelieve it or not i've purchased two cars (oldsmobile) through the borg connection - the circuit leasing group.
admittedly both cars were pretty reliable and pretty maintenance free.
the first car i brought from them i had to pick it up at bethel, a brother was driving it up from texas.

Consumer Reports always praises the Accord, and the reliablity of most Honda vehicles is reportedly well above par.
As for Olds, a dead brand name now that GM has announced that they plan to eliminate that line.

Paganism is ok when we say it is
by zenpunk inwe all probably know already that jws don't celebrate christmas, labeling it a pagan holiday and telling its whole sordid history to anyone who'll listen.
however, i found out that wedding rings are pagan in origin.
the jws know it but they include the exchange of rings during the wedding ceremony, explaining that rings are exchanged as an outward symbol to everyone that this couple is married, thus justifying the pagan origin of the whole thing.

Good point zen - for example, in a recent article about the weddings, the Awake! said that rice-throwing was out, and this has been announced at jw weddings, though ostensibly at times because birds evidently consume the rice and suffer ill effects. And yet, yes, wedding rings are seen as a personal choice. I'm not sure of any other examples - maybe that of wedding anniversaries, though I don't think they have any pagan ties.
