I am with FF, I cannot. I don't think it is something you can learn.
Snowbird, do you think it is something you were born with or learned?

Can You "Read" People?
by minimus inmisery wrote on a thread how those of us who were born into the jw religion were taught how to read people.
we learn how to look for their weaknesses, their joys, what seems to be troubling them, what their yard looks like, etc.. do you have this ability, in all honesty?
i am told that i have that ability and it freaks people out sometimes (in a good way).

JWs Come Home...do they need to try this approach?
by maninthemiddle init looks like the catholics are trying to bring lost members home.
would this approach work with jws?
i can think of some it may work on, but not me or most.. is this more useful to those that simply don't attend anymore, or those that have converted?.

do they only count you if you are not inactive? Just because the congregation still has your records, you are not counted in the 7 mil, right?

I think you are saying of the about 7 mil claimed to be "publishers" there are many more who identify as JW?
That makes sense, I have met people who were disfellowshipped and still believed the doctrine, I have also met people who got reinstated just to be with family, they still identified and JWs. I think they could be included in the "potential" count.

by TD inin the jw world, is there a difference between christmas lights and chile lights?.
chile lights are the same damn idea, but they are used as a party decoration all year long.

Blondie, I met at least one CO who wouldn't mind, as long as it was a Green Bay flag,
and I have known ones to have Georgia paraphernalia on their cars all the time. However college football is big in the south, I just wish college was big too.

Do you mean as in strings of lights that look like Chili Peppers?
Can't speak for this one scpecifically, however I have known several JWs that had white lights decorating their patios and their ficus trees all year, but I think all of them turned them off in December.
I guess that is becuse they only have one meaning that time of year, and suddenly become pagan, but all the paganinity disapears in January?

i was interestd in what else might have been said and i found this:.

So question for you all, since we know that there wasn't a global flood, what does that mean for Peter and Paul, and even Jesus when they speak about the flood?
Were they talking about the local flooding that there is evidence for? Did they believe it was global?
