Do you prefer to sit on the pew in a church or on the regular Kingdom Hall seat?
by asilentone ini hate to sit on the pew.
i prefer to sit on the regular kingdom hall seat.
do you think it might be a good subtle reason for some people to convert their religion to jw?

Is this a serious question?
I love the pews in old cathedrals because they are often dimly lit, and have tall end panels next to which you can completely disappear. Brightly lit steel-tube seating is depressing to me, and reminds me of a waiting room or a reception area in a doctor's office. Then combine that with pastel blue suits, smelly perfume, perfectly groomed hair and spring bonnets, and I just don't want to live anymore.
By the way - the RC church I went to with my family, growing up, was originally a real church with pews, one of those relatively small post-war jobs made of brick with the unadorned white columns outside - you see them all over the East serving all sorts of different Christian faiths.
Then, about when I started high school, they needed to expand as the congregation had grown, so they purchased property across town and built a "parish center", complete with individual steel-tube seating, oak trim, nasty little eletric console organ; the works.
The moral of the story ... Same church - different seating. Capiche?

It completely depends on the person and their habits. It's exactly the same as whether or not to worry if someone is more than half an hour late without calling. Some people are like clockwork, and when they fail to do the usual thing then it's time to worry. Others are flaky as a good pie crust and you just have to know that they will never let you know when they are running late.
If you don't know the person yet, you can't proceed as if you did. For your own sake, assume they are flaky or something (like the battery thing) happened, until you see a pattern indicating otherwise.

Sounds like yet more doomsday talk.
But, for all zero of you who watched the documentary I posted in another thread several weeks ago (The Warning), Brooksley Born's point at the end is worth taking note of -- that, as long as we continue bowing to the Wall Street lobbyists, continuing to allow derivatives markets to run rampant with zero regulation or even visibility (which is still the case to this day!), we will see repeats of the meltdown of 2007, again and again and again. I believe that ... damn right I do.

Law of Attraction
by INTK injust wondering if it is okay to practice the law of attraction as per the book "the secret".
if you are committed to jehovah, would the law of attraction simply be something to improve your life but at the same time staying grounded with god.. is this to be avoided by brothers and sisters or is it okay if you do practice it knowing that jehovah did create the laws of the universe.
i can't find anything in any past watchtower or awake articles.

How do you all know what this "law of attraction" is? Or this book "the Secret"? Never heard of any of it - it sounds like something from an infomercial.

I am so digusted with that language. At least there's "The Office" to turn to for relief.
