Org Is RACIST! Towards Sisters Of COLOR In Particular--IMO!
by HiddlesWife ini'm sorry--i'm getting this very sensitive vibe that the org (mainly those at the top) don't have any respect--forget about love--for sisters of color.
i'm coming to this conclusion from a couple of videos on jw broadcasting about single sisters.. after watching this video: .

Rant away, you are preaching the truth. When I was a teenager I knew that I would never marry a witness. The attitude you speak about is straight from the old testament. While I am not a 'person of color' I agree completely.

There are a few current members here, but for the most part we are ex-JWs, some hurt by the religion; others with family in (like me). I am sure there will be a few to show up. We have quite a few atheists and agnostics here too.
Welcome.

Libraries still exist and you can even download digital for a few weeks.... They even take them back automatically. If you like older books they are often out of copyright and are download-able for free. Google is your friend!

Chicken soup with rice
Start brown rice cooking(takes about 55 minutes at my altitude.)
Add onion and seasonings, chop celery(one or two stalks) then add
Leftover chicken or chop raw chicken to bite size or simmer chicken pieces and de-bone.
After every thing is simmering I take 1/2 cup portions of frozen peas and nuke one minute to defrost, then add to each bowl. I hate how peas get soft especially in leftovers so that is my solution.

Knorr on 1914: "I don't know." - Mouthy Alert!
by compound complex indear mouthy and other denounced ones,.
you may find this double standard $%^@#@*&!
"in 1975, knorr made a remarkable and candid statement to the governing body, which confirmed his growing disillusionment until his death two years later: ["]'"there are some things i know --- i know that jehovah is god, that christ jesus is his son, that he gave his life as a ransom for us, that there is a resurrection.

SLEEP
by compound complex insleep shall come, perhaps not today,but soon, an eternal, blessed slumber.
that bids farewell to suffering that eventrue love, in no measure, can assuage.. why such anguish, borne upon once broadshoulders that now do sag, no longer able.
to withstand the weight of both our worlds?come, o sleep, on velvet wings of night..
