  Old Goat, sorry to hear about your eye sight, thanks for posting your memories.

  I agree with you Terry about Russel. He does come accross as a gentle and sincere person. However, when you look at the treatment of his wife everything becomes clearer as to his true personality, the same with the court cases he was involved with as well as his financial structures.

  Any new partakers this year???

  by DATA-DOG in

  i just wondered if anyone was going to partake this year?

  when i learned ttatt, it became obvious that the wtbts was not god's organization.

  it became obvious that if the bible was true, the wtbts's teaching on the "anointed" were false.

  I like your point about this generation. It's over, it's gone. Making up a new and ridiculous meaning for the term generation changes nothing, 1914 cannot be true.

  It is going to be hard for the elderly to get their 15 mnnutes preaching in per month being surrounded only by JWs, maybe they could put a cart up at the front for the delivery guys.

  With only JWs being employed I wonder if they are allowed to do this with the anti discrimination laws.

  It never ceases to amaze me how many JWs can spend hours and hours out in the field service, most of the time getting nowhere, rather than focusing on their own family.

  all - so my wife told me she was going to the kh yesrterday.

  it has been a couple of months so i was a bit disappointed but i sucked it in.

  does any one know where the jah-jireh webs sites, the sites that deal with the jw retirement homes have gone?.

  i've been interested in them for a while, (with my age and that) but they've disappeared from the web!.

  does anyone know why they might have come of, been taken off, disappeared from the net.. the only reference i can find to them is a list of retirement homes with a religious bent.. thanks all!.

  "Jah-Jireh is registered for the care of Jehovah’s Witnesses only by those who are dedicated and baptised"

  I thought it was against Equal Employment Opportunities to discriminate and only allow JWs to be employed.

  That's a great video to motivate the young ones. The only problem is that they are encouraging them to save up their money to go on a holiday rather than preaching for the right reasons.

  Anybody have experience selling on Ebay or Amazon?

  by EndofMysteries in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  there are a few collectibles i am wanting to sell.

  my concern is that if i accept payment w/ credit card, etc, that i ship the item and they either open it (destroying the value), or just lie about not getting it, or any other thing to cause ebay/amazon to chargeback.

  i was wondering if anybody sells on them is there a protection for sellers and how often does that type of thing happen?
