Are you a lonely JW this xmas day? read on...
by highdose inthis is a post for all those jw lurkers out there who were once like me but probably think they are all alone and that noone else is going through what they are.... xmas day as a lonely jw is a real bitch!
what happens is: you spend the whole day alone, knowing that all those jw familys in your area are all together today having a great time!
if you have a family thats not jw then they are also all together having a great time... but you can't join in.... so you sit there watching tv, all the xmas films coming on... showing familys together on xmas day.... but wait a second!

"The idea springs from a conflation of Adonis and Tammuz/Dumuzi found in 19th century comparative religion, particularly Frazer's The Golden Bough. It was Adonis who according toPseudo-Apollodorus (Bibliotheca, 3.14.4) was born in the "tenth month", which some have interpreted as meaning December, but in context it is the tenth month after his mother became pregnant."
Well that may be , but according to what I've read Tammuz springs from a union of Semaramis(the branch bearer)
and the resurrected(into the sun - hence SUNday) NIMROD who impregnated her via his rays of the sun.
Sound familiar? Isaiah 11:1 - [ The Branch From Jesse ]

"The reason for discarding all human organizations, and not reforming the least objectionable one and calling out of all others into it, now, is shown by our Lord's treatment of the various Jewish sects in the harvest or close of their dispensation; for then, as now, all were rejected, and the "Israelites indeed" were called out of all, into freedom, and taught the will and plan of God by various chosen vessels of God's own selection."

I know Christmas is "wrong", but for god's sakes, what's so "wrong" about New Near's day?
by african GB Member inthis time of the year is the most stressful for jw's(especially progressive jws) as they have to explain to non-jws why they don't celebrate christmas and new year's days.. i can understand the religious implications of christmas day, but what about new years?
what is so wrong about looking forward to new beginings?
was new year celebration also started by "christendom/ babylon the great"?

Report: Elin Wants Full Custody, Half of Everything Tiger Has
First, some good news for Tiger Woods: no new mistresses came forward this weekend so the list unofficially stands at 14. And John Daly has even offered his counsel.
Now the bad news: Tiger's mother is apparently "angry and disappointed" by her son's behavior. And rumors persist that Elin Nordegren will seek to divorce Woods, probably sometime after the holidays.
Via the New York Post:
"She wants 100 percent divorce, 100 percent custody of the children, and half of everything. And she won't be changing her mind," a confidant of the Swedish stunner told the British tab[loid News of the World]. The hard-line stance stems from Woods' refusal to seek help for his twin addictions to sex and pills, the paper reported. ... -

In Consequence of Culture
The Case in Favor of a
Hebrew-influenced
New Testament Translation
by David Ison"After Messiah’s resurrection and ascension, a new rubric began to form. Messengers, bearing good tidings, went forth into all nations, proclaiming the terms of a renewed Covenant and taught their doctrines with fire fresh from the Spirit. Over time, the Church emerged, consumed with relentless zeal in pursuing its vision of the Great Commission. It now promulgated on its own authority new ordinances, designed to demarcate, and even to coronate before the world, its nascent solemn epiphanies. So a new generation of teaching quickly ensued, propelled into the mainstream by pastors, leaders, and teachers who had little or no understanding or familiarity with the Hebrew Masoretic texts. An unprecedented notion was heralded by the Church: that a “New” covenant had been introduced and the former had passed away (Heb 8:6-13).
Then, as if to say these precious Hebrew texts which had so long served the people of God were in exigent need of revision, the Church cast into the annals of history its record of the various councils and committees, which at their end conferred to all the world a kind of canon nouveaux of sacred text. Its Greek inspired selections were now regarded as equal to or of even greater authority than the Masoretic.............Those who are not Jewish will not understand how completely unthinkable it is to place a letter of correspondence into the same category as the scripture....."http://shma-israel.org/articles/In_Consequence_Shma_2007_09_08.pdf

Pre-busted
by Heartbreaker ini mean, i can only imagine that's what i am.
i read a post here on my phone, and wish could remember who it was, to give credit, but i can not.
it was about the slow fade or some such, and the merits to just getting out, or doing it slowly.

D A - All the way. It takes their power away.
Also makes them wonder if you're right - then they're wrong.
I think it makes you somewhat legendary too, instead of just a victim.

"New Order", "New World Order" systematically removed from WTS
by EndofMysteries inhas anyone else caught on to this?
i remember as a kid, 80's, it was called the "new system", then late 80's, early 90's, changed to new world order.
it's interesting that governments, conspiracy theories, news, etc, are all calling the one world government, the new world order.

It's part of the UN/NGO doublespeak role that they play in the literature to promote the UN and the NWO,
Intentionally denying the reality and calling people crazy who say otherwise. They're experts at it.
Now you see it. Now you don't.
