there is probably so much money floating around the top eschilons of the JW's that it would scare the hell out of us common folk.

Self confidence and making money.
by greendawn inwhy do some people make a lot of money but others do not?
according to carol tuttle, an alternative psychotherapist, it all boils down to one's sense of self worth and personal confidence.

self confidence is the key to everything.
parents should concentrate all their energy in making sure their children are self confident.
we should spend all available time developing it in ourselves as well.
learn how to do things you are interested in doing. keep getting better at them. you will have self confidence.

Anyone feeling the Memorial pressure?
by atypical infor those who are fading, do you feel the pressure building as the memorial approaches?
family members who otherwise are busy with their own interests suddenly start paying more attention, dropping hints and holding their breath as it were.
then there are the invitations.

i think there is a flow of positive energy and of negative energy flowing through all living matter. i think the only way to send positive energy is to say something encouraging. so here goes.
it will get better. go out side and breathe and tilt your head so that the sun warms you.

Not many from 33-1919
by ajie inread a post yesterday where someone had the number of partakers in 1935 the cut off year,the number of partakers(annointed) was 52465 this dosnt leave many places for the people before the org was chosen in 1919.so the total number of places in heaven before 1935 was 91535.it seems that there cant of been many true followers in the 1902 years prior to their being chosen,in fact it works out there were only 48 annointed spaces per year.but suddenly from 1919 to 1935 a period of only 16 years we have an increase of holy ones to 3279 per year .this is so obviously rubbish,and how the hell did they no there were 91535 annointed before them,hope that all makes sense.

its totally ridiculous, 144,000 would get filled very very quickly in the first century. rev. said they would be first fruits. so first 144,000 christians would be the annointed. that number could have filled in 1 or 2 years of preaching.
insanity, blah.

you are a great story teller. they don't laugh at women, they think how frail they are and how glad they are men. he probably made hot passionate love to his wife that night you made him feel so manly.
no, its the obviously clueless gay men like me that they laugh at like when i drove 40 miles to my dealership because there was a funny smell coming from under the car and he reached under there and pulled out a piece of plastic that had got stuck. now HE laughed at me

The Bible - God's Word or Man's?
by SickofLies ini guess my basic goal here is to express to others and hopefully get more support in my efforts to tear down the two worst and most inaccurate books the society has published.
those being: life: how did it get here?
and the bible - god's word or man's?

Tremendous changes in a short time.....
by AK - Jeff ini mean if you think about it - and i might be off on the time a little - in the past 6 months we have heard of the following;elimination of the hard cover biblereducing of awake to monthly additionsdownsizing at bethel worldwideelimination of bethel elders.
there may be others that i forgot about.
but these are all very significant, and they are all happening at once, in a relative sense.those of us in the apostate circles may not realize just how the total impact might be on the flock.
