  someone who works at a college locally, pointed out to me that one of their scholar students was stocking shelves at a dollar store.. with this recession, are you finding that higher learning is wasting time?

  .

  i know that it's necessary to become a dr. or a lawyer, but, with the shortage of work, even teachers are working as secretarys.. what do you think?.

  This is a person, with a Business Administration graduate degree. Not sure about the relocation thing. It could be the small town that they live in. Perhaps family ties.

  But, this is happening in Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver...many cities in Canada.

  I think that David, and Solomon have inspired such tv shows as the "Batchelor". A bunch of women in a room competing for their 20 minutes of time with their mate. But, this was for a longer time, and an unending supply of roses.

  I appreciated the scripture, Blondie, researched to show that under certain circumstances you could marry a women of the nations. I'm really confused about the contradiction. One says "7 nations" not to marry, then the other makes the distinction of "appearance". So what was the rule? If the pagan was ugly, exterminate her? What is the logic behind that? What did the Israelite do when he was plundering the village? Did he offer the survivor a rose for her to accept? Did he say, "You have one month to put this behind you, and then you become one of my wives"

  What about those guys dying because of the illegal census? Imagine being one of those poor guys seeing the Dr. The Dr telling you, "Well you must have done something wrong to merit this, so don't blame it totally on the King f***ing up".

  I'm sure glad I didn't live in those days.

  Thanks for sharing, Eibeen. Those feelings are all normal, and shouldn't make you feel wrong. Your doubts are well founded.

  Mentally Diseased Apostates to Survive Armageddon! - The WT says so!!!

  by 00DAD in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  as i'm sure we all know by now, the july 15, 2011 watchtower branded "apostates" as "mentally diseased" (p. 16, para.

  but never fear, because--also according to the wtbts--jehovah will take that into account at armageddon.

  the wt says so, so it must be true!
