Yea there was a story about the time back in 2004 when the gb was supposed to be at a hotel on the beach in Banda Aceh but a reservation mix up kept them tsumami safe and they were suppose to be in on the train to Sendai Japan but they got sick from sushi the night before and missed the tsunami and of course the story of the two brothers who refused to pioneer to get a job at the fukushima power plant. The saga of the traveling gb mr. magoo men. Stories the circuit overseers tell around campfires.

That's the first time I heard that story you would think if it was true it would have been all over the place. many CO's have lost touch with reality.

Does the necktie have a pagan origin?
by Cirkeline ini wonder if some of you know the origin of the necktie?
i have sometimes heard people saying it's a fallos-symbol, but is there a valid background for this?.

If you think sitting in a parked car staring into space is a good use of your time
If you knock on a door and someone invites you in and you notice they are the ultimate hoarder and you go in crawling over stacks of magazines papers whatever and hope that a cockroach doesn't crawl into your bag
if you act like you enjoy being with people that you really don't like at all

Brother Sidekick and his wife came to our house today. This ones for Moshe
by garyneal inwow, two days after my conversation with brother hero that brother sidekick shows up with his wife at our apartment.
i am not sure what he wanted but he shows me a newspaper article that suggests that jesus was in jail for the last supper and calculates his death at 33 c.e.. i honestly dont know what he was trying to get at but he and his wife started talking about the memorial.
he said that just like what the newspaper article said, the jews no longer use the old calendar.

i don't think they really mark you as long as you're not a baptized witness. They ignore alot of stuff as long as they think they can still snag you. Once you sign on the dotted line the rules change no more questioning and less and less personal attention. You mentioned the blood issue on another thread well their in trouble trying to make sense out their position which keeps changing and when we were last in several years ago most Jw's I knew were totally confused over what was the right thing to do.

Whose woods these are I think I know
His house is in the village though
He will not see me stopping here
to watch his woods fill up with snow
My little horse must think it queer
to stop without a farmhouse near
between the woods and frozen lake
the coldest evening of the year
he gives his harness bells a shake
to ask if there is some mistake
the only other sounds the sweep
of easy wind and downy flake
The woods are lovely dark and deep but I have promises to keep
and miles to go before I sleep and miles to go before I sleep

Forgiving. Surely a limit even for Christians?
by punkofnice inok. so i admit i'm stumped.
i left the jws and became christian and have been going through bouts of atheism, agnostisism and back.
that isn't something i want to delve into right now.. i remember seeing on the tv how a couple had their daughter murdered and they said that as christians they forgave the killer.. eh?.

So what i wonder about is if it's so good for us to be forgiving why is it always okay for god to slaughter and punish for all sorts of so called sins especially killing us for questioning the morality of it's action.

I don't like genocide
by nancy drew inthe other day i was thinking again about what was at the core of my feelings about the wtbs and i realized that i don't feel right about anything that requires genocide for it to exist.
when i think about the "paradise earth" relying on the death of 7 billion humans or the hebrew scripture loaded with extermination orders for anyone who got in the way i feel a wave of unhappiness.
during the time i was in the org i kept thinking surely at the end of the 1000 years happiness won't exist on the backs of 99% of humanity.

During the time I was in the org I kept thinking surely at the end of the 1000 years happiness won't exist on the backs of 99% of humanity. Another thing if you have the capability to just put people to sleep why kill them so horribly for who's benefit is it to terrorize the survivors so they will obey you and who's to say the entity is really going to provide a "paradise earth" what if it pulls a new lighter and says the joke's on you. Now that I have you're attention and you're terrified of me I'll let you know what I really want.
I don't know the real answers but I do know genocide doesn't feel right.
