so, i am getting ready to move across the state.
we bought a home there, and have taken a couple of loads over, with the main move being this next week.
i went over this last week cause i wanted to paint the kitchen and dining room before we moved in (a lot easier to do without grandkids and dogs under foot).. anyway... here i am painting away when there is a knock on the door.
Why shouldn't they be two-faced, though? Even the corporation(s) themselves have two sides. There is the religion - Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses, and there is the business - Watchtower Society of NY (or PA as the case may be).
They're two-faced from the top down.
I am over the doctrine,......I would rather learn how the business operates,.......
make decisions.
all the decisions that we make?
why make decisions at all?.
This lesson was a knock-off, of Steven Convey,.....they should just stick to their little bible examples.
hey folks,.
some people were asking about the replay of this so i figured i'd post a link for those who wanted to listen.. .

I am trying to find a way to download, the stream, so I can listen to it later,......are their podcast of the info?
Oh I get it,......the answer is in the "QUESTION" with makes the "QUESTION" ,null.
that's deep,
tell me what you enjoy (or miss) the most at district conventions that get (or got) you thru them.. i like seeing what people are wearing, especially the females with super high-heel "stripper" shoes.
but i dread getting beat up and ran over by jws trying to get "good seats"..
I miss the transition when you had to pay for tickets to get food, to when it was strictly donation driven
......Wow...how long did that last?
You are the only person in "bama" that I know.
So,... I like by default,....ha,ha,....jk
jay,
i think patti labelle is too much of a screamer when she "sings".. i don't think jerry seinfeld is all that funny.. i'm just not into george clooney.
he's way overrated!.
David Hasselhoff, was definitely over-rated in Night-rider,.....
But was such an Over-achiever while at BayWatch.
i know we are supposed to be politically correct but i don't always feel that this is warranted.. i do think that certain things might be generally true and could be viewed as stereotyping.
for example, if i see a young person driving a car very slowly, i might think that they are texting and driving (or else are asian).
now that might not have sounded proper, but i do think it's generally true, from my experience driving in the city.. if i see a "butchy" looking woman, i generally assume the woman is gay.
Can not wait to hear the responses as I sit back and enjoy my fried chicken and watermelon.
my wife stood before me with some items in front of her.
without a word, she emptied a large jar of mayonnaise and proceeded to fill the empty jar with rocks right to the top, rocks about 2" diameter, then asked me if the jar was full.
i agreed that it was.. she then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them in to the jar.
yep. That is one over-used example.
while watching the faith in action part 2 dvd, one thing i noticed was what i feel a clever distinction made by the wt.
at 7:15 a very bad actor plays rutherford announcing the name 'jehovahs witnesses'.
he says "the watchtower bible and tract society and the international bible students association are merely names of corporations... we are servants of jehovah god commisioned to do a work in his name".... i wonder if this is a subtle ploy to separate the corporation from the 'religion' in the minds of the rank and file?.
As I heard tooooooo often this Scripture is used an indication of the Importance of the "Work" of spreading the Gospel of JW's:
John14:12 - Most truly I say to YOU , He that exercises faith in me, that one also will do the works that I do;
and he will do works greater than these, because I am going my way to the Father
Interesting, how the GB can peg Christedom as being the world empire of false religion, however I am not at liberty to peg the WTBTS as the very corporation
that they use to further their interest as a extension of who they are and what they represent.
