NC, Sounds like you had found a blessing this weekend. It's great with the teacher gives the students a break, eh?
D, It sounds like you had a great adventure this weekend. I'll add that to my bucket list.
i believe it was in paragraph 9, in the wt study.
it mentioned something like "developing a romantic relationship with an unbeliever".. our congregation has had so many bad relationships with couples in the faith.
so, that has inspired others to go outside of the org to find romance.

When the conductor got to this paragraph, no one would comment on it. Everyone knew how sensitive that was. The conductor made some excuse about timing and we moved over that one without any mention of the substance of the paragraph.
How was it at your meeting?
i wish i could scan it and get your thoughts.
it was a picture of a happy group of witnesses during a meeting for field service.
there was a. comment from a local high-horse-rider about a brother in the front row in the picture being disobedient.
No, no, no....you are all wrong. Check out the seats in the front row.....that's right, no body is sitting in those seats.
How many times does the Society have to tell you to sit in the front row. Geez what is wrong with us. Everyone in that picture is disobeying the direction. They are to be destroyed.......
1) on saturday's last talk by the do, he made a cool illustration.
he said "imagine my wife found a picture of another woman in my wallet.
and when she approaches my about it, i say 'oh, thats only because she reminds me of you.
Supposing your wife found a picture of George Washington in your wallet. What would you say? "Keep your theiving hands away from my wallet"
How do you think she would feel about that answer? Well, you really are idolizing money, aren't you?
just wanted to say you provide a unique voice on this forum.
i don't always agree with you, but i'd like you to stay here for as long as you can stand it.. .
-sab.
What the H#ll. What's all this talk about BOTR leaving? Did the X-Mormons give her a better offer?
well, we are on a roll.
.
i remember the brother that always had that same pair of pants with that grease spot in the same place.
EWZ: Euwwwwww that was disgusting
BOTR: At our place of work, we have a Scent free policy. Wish that applied to body odor.
WH: We all know someone like that. But, gotta show them lot's of love. Hope you hugged that person.
TS: You finally told them about me.,,,,,,just kidding, just kidding
65 year old self-professed jw man sentenced to 20-40 years state for abusing a young neighbor boy.
over a course of three years.
he actually read scriptures to the boy after each abuse session, which.
The story said that "Camara" was abused himself when he was younger. There is more story here, that makes me wonder.
Was he sexually abused by JW relatives, himself? Who knows. I know that JW's wouldn't encourage him to seek counselling, but he should have. There are many that don't seek counselling because of the shame, and unsettling experience this experience was in their life.
He was a MS...wow that is unsettling. Imagine how people looked up to him as an example. He gave talks in the KH and was held in high esteem over the simple microphone carriers. But, Jah had inspired his recommendation. Holy Spirit was present when he received that appointment. You wish. What insanity we allow in our faith.
This is so disgusting, and so shamefull.
happy thanksgivingwatchtower style!.
today i added a new article to my blog titled happy thanksgivingwatchtower style!
it is available at: http://marvinshilmer.blogspot.com/2011/11/happy-thanksgiving-watchtower-style.html.
Really?
Not this one, and maybe 90 % of the others.
Here are some other points to keep in mind. Turkeys don't like to celebrate Thanks-giving. In fact they would rather we would all go preaching on that day.

one of 80 territory maps used by jehovah's witnesses from a jackson heights kingdom hall to evangelize door to door.. jehovah's witnesses don't celebrate thanksgiving.
Now that missionary man, cheats on Thanks giving.
Welll, probably only one Elder takes the arrangement and a few people who are unemployed year round are out that day.
The rest that work, trust me, will be at home for a deserved rest.
I always felt sorry for Bethelites that had to work on a Statutory Holiday. The law states that you had to pay workers overtime for working a Stat holiday. You know what happens with those Bethelites, eh. Are the Bethelites ok with this? Not really. I know exactly how they feel about this.
my computer-support service has checked my computer because it's been rather "glitchy" lately, and the hard drive is failing.... so, i'll end up being cut-off from the board, for a while.... some of you have my personal phone number, if you need to get in touch.... **********************************************************************.
here's something else that's been bothering me.... we're going to fly out to see the in-laws soon - and i'm very uneasy about flying.... if something should happen to me, could you people please help find good homes for my animals???
they are all indoors animals, have been spayed/neutered, and are pretty good with dogs.... there are six cats - the seventh one, minx, will have to be "put down", as she is slowly dying of feline leukemia, and is far too "high-maintenance" for anyone else to care for.... but there's chomper - a neutered male, six-toed cat, somewhat feral but ferociously loyal to anyone who will be patient with him - and feed him wet food... he's a big, short-haired grey-and-black tabby... unfortunately, in the process of the hard-drive decay, my computer no longer recognizes my crappy printer, and so i can't load a pix of chomper... but he's a big cutie!!.
Take care Zid.
Hope to hear from you again,
QB
