  Cant take that away...

  by new hope and happiness in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  whilst ive lost my faith in god, what cant be taken away from me is the music, eg vince gill " go rest high on that mountain" .

  u2 " still havnt found what i am looking for".

  so how about a thread about our favourite spiritual songs that move us, if we are atheists....

  Another example of evolution before our very eyes!

  by cantleave in

  2. friends

  i read an interesting article in the awake in the scientist on-line magazine and i thought i would summarise it for the lovely people on jwn.

  this is a great example of what survival of the fittest really is and it provides evidence of evolution that can be observed in our own lifetimes.. creationists will say this is micro evolution and not macro evolution (or as an evolutionary biologist refer to it speciation).

  they will argue that that these are two different concepts, but the reality is that it is an accumulation of these small changes occurring in different populations that will eventually create a divergence resulting in a new species.. charles brown of the university of tulsa has been studying the social behaviour of cliff swallows for the past 31 years (good job armageddon didnt strike in 1975).

  2013 Drama: "Show Yourself Attentive"

  by breakfast of champions in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  this is the first of three "dramas" this dc, and i have to say, it was one of the weirdest dramas ever.

  i won't go through all the details.

  maybe someone else wants to throw in their 2c.. it starts out with two men standing on the "beach" talking, but it took me awhile to figure out what in the hell was going on.

  An old friend

  by pontoon in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  40+ yrs ago when i moved into this congregation's territory i became good friends with a brother in the congregation, about 20 yrs older than me and about mildest, most easy going person you could meet.

  he was just full of old fashion country style common sense, taught me a lot about country life, like heating with firewood, (yes, there is a lot to know about cutting and heating with wood), taught me how to skin and cut up deer, he would help anyone who needed help........., so about 30 yrs ago he was df'd.

  we would occasionally bump into each other, i would never not say hello, but him knowing i wasn't suppose to talk to him he would (and i) just move on.

  Hey Captain!

  There was a question box from 'readers' with the question:

  'Does the Governing body indorse independent Bible study groups?'

  don't you remember?

  I agree with you unstopableravens, this was supposed to be called "the truth". So many years wasted.

  This box will be thrown away ones the wastepaper collector arrives next time. Two volumes of "Insight" and a couple of Kingdom Ministry's will be added to it.

  Iamallcool, thanks for help with pasting the pictures!
