  Why, why, why do they say that it is Jesus? as if anyone knows what he may have looked like.

  That image could have been, let say em.....Lucifer or Noah or Buda or I don't know, but it's a load of crap http://www.crapmachine.com/

  Remember when assemblies were fun?

  by Aphrodite in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i just remembered when i was a kid and we would go to the assembly, it was fun because we got to buy new clothes and put extra effort into looking good.

  when we would get there you could save your seats and even save some for your friends, then go off looking for them.. i used to love our circuit assembly because of the food.

  it was at the assembly hall and there was a big kitchen, some of my favourite brothers worked in that kitchen, sometimes i was allowed to go in and help.

  What They Tell a CO

  by WalkTall in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  did it ever bother any of you that you and your family were talked about to the co during the elders meeting with him?

  and for those who have been elders, my question is: how much do they tell him?

  for some reason, it has always bothered me that this man, who is a complete stranger really, is informed of family or personal situations through the lense of elder's opinions.

  1. Vancouver 2. Vienna 3. Melbourne 4. Toronto 5. Calgary 6. Helsinki 7. Sydney 8. Perth 9. Adelaide 10. Auckland.

  Depends on which site one goes to.

  28 April 2009: While Zurich, Switzerland’s largest city and the country’s financial capital, is no longer number one, three Swiss cities make it into the top 10 of 'best' cities in the world. According to new research, Vienna, Austria’s capital, is now the city most people would like to call their home. Geneva retains its position in third place, while Vancouver and Auckland are now joint fourth in the rankings of best cities in the world, a survey prepared by Mercer Consulting. Overall, European cities continue to dominate the top locations in this year’s survey, with German cities particularly well represented among the top 50. Düsseldorf, Munich and Frankfurt are all among the top 10 best cities.

  I am biased, but Brisbane is great.

  some of you may recognize me from jwr and jws where i am the only resident "jezebel".

  my mother decided we were to become witnesses when i was 3 years old.

  my father disagreed, they divorced.. the "friends" set her up with a "nice new brother" and they married that same year.

  God the Great Watcher With Hurt Feelings, Rage, Jealousy and Everything Human

  by frankiespeakin in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the idea of a god that made everything, knows everything, and has feelings and opinions about everything seems a bit preposterous and based on a pile of assumptions which are extremely anthropomorphic in nature.. needless to say the biblical deity resembles a human with megalomania, or a human with an inflated ego.

  he demands love from his worshippers with nothing less than to love him with ones whole heart and soul.

  based to a large part on godly fear and terror, for the consequences of not loving him are,, ah well,,punishment of some sort depending on which brand of religion or interpretation one subscribes to.
