If your friend doesn’t mind downloading large PDF’s this site is above suspicion :
The publications have to be searched for using key words, but there are plenty there.

What would be your favorite job if you could do anything.?
by new hope and happiness inon the basis that most of us realise the w.t wasnt really the best " job" or way to spend our days, it would be fun to find out what people would really have liked to have done with there lifes and if this is still possible.
or maybe its not even a very realistic ambition just a dream.
in my dreams i stay at home all day and make a living from being a professional artist.maybe i need a phycholgist?.

one reason for the dumbing down of the org
by Magnum ina lot of us have said that theres been a dumbing down in jw land.
its just not like it used to be especially a few decades ago.
it seems to me that if jw are right and the end of the world is near, the spiritual food should get tastier and more nourishing as time goes on, but it's getting more and more bland and less nourishing.

LOL, the less the Borg prints, the less they can get wrong- because even their basic doctrines are wrong. A case in point: the 1963 BTG book was full of maps of Babylon, and Freddy traced its history back to the mythical Tower of Babel; and the mythical Nimrod- but he had the wrong city entirely! The BTG of Revelation was of course Rome, as any Bible scholar even back in the 60's knew. The whole book was just a waste of time.

Mad Freddy sure could write! I wonder how many people went to sleep while reading his books? But lol, it makes no difference without him- as long as people attend meetings, do FS and donate money, it doesn't matter what the content of the books & mags is. Dumbing down means less time needed to write the guff, less paper wasted making the literature, and as long as the information is non-specific, there is no danger of people using the Net to check any of the 'facts' or quotes. Its the same pigfood served up again & again anyway, so what does it matter how dumb it is?

Thread Envy
by snowbird intranshuman mentioned that someone on the board suffers from thread envy.. are you jealous of other posters who just seem to be able to generate responses to their threads?.
lol..

LOL, you crack me up snowbird! I don't worry too much about replies to my threads; but it's nice to get at least half a dozen, so I know that what is important to me is important to others too- and that I'm not a total weirdo, lol. But we are all different, and have different interests, so sometimes we just have to be unpopular.

A god made of pure energy would succumb to the 2nd law of thermodynamics, and burn out in the end. That's probably what happened, and why no-one's seen god for a while, lol.

Books that changed your life-
by new hope and happiness ini am not much of a reader as i have two many distractions, but i fancy a challenging read, so please list any book that has changed your entire world view on everything.
i remember as a teenager buying at a yard sale, norman vincent peales " the power of positive thinking" and at the time that had a big impact on me.
but i am a little bit more in to " realistic positive thinking" now..

Maybe 3 books influenced me:
Living In Sin? by John Shelby Spong
The Big Book (A.A.)
The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins
The Misery of Christianity by Joachim Kahl
LOL, a strange mix, but it marks my path to atheism, I guess.

The Egyptians worshipped a god that was pure energy- the sun god Aten- this is a hymn written about him by Pharaoh Akhenaten:
You shine out in beauty on the horizon of heaven,
O living disc, the beginning of life.
When you have appeared on the eastern horizon,
you have filled every land with your perfection.
When you set on the western horizon,
the earth lies in darkness as in death.
The earth lies in silence,
for the one who created it has gone to rest on his horizon.
Then the earth becomes bright: you have arisen on the horizon.
As solar disc, you shine by day.
Men awaken and stand on their feet.
Their arms are bent in worship, because you appear. The whole land goes to work.
All beasts are satisfied with their pasture, the trees and plants become green.
The birds flutter in their nests,
raising their wings in worship before your spirit. The ships sail upstream and down.
The fish in the river dart before your face. You make the seed grow in women,
make fluid into mankind.
How manifold are your works!
They are hidden from the face of man,
0 sole God, apart from whom there is no other. You have made people for yourself,
the Lord of all of them,
wearying himself with them,
the Lord of the whole land, rising for them. You are in my heart...It is believed to be the inspiration for Psalms 104...
...so its true- there is nothing new under the sun... lol
