  if they rose from the dead, it is a zombie and you need to know a couple things.. 1. do not let it bite you, as it trying to eat you and if it doesn't the bite will turn you zombie.. 2. shot for the head!!!!

  Watchtower Society knows they are beat

  2. child-abuse

  in regard to the conti case......i have a new hypothesis.

  i think they know they can't win this one.

  but for the sake of damage control, they must litter the court with appeals and extensions.

  Good for you saying something.

  When the Panorama programme on paedophilia amongst JWs was shown I didn't believe a single bad word that was said about the society and although had always enjoyed and trusted Panorama prior to this episode I stopped watching it I was so disgusted with them.

  Nothing in that programme made me question the religion I was in and the only difference it made was to keep a close eye on my girls around the brothers.

  Once out I revisited that programme and watched it again knowing that what was said was the truth. It helped in my escape and in the same way anything said now to someone still in may appear to have fallen on deaf ears I know once some-thing like that is in your head, it doesn't leave.

  She may do nothing now but if something else crops up she may decide to research it then and if you hadn't said anything she wouldn't know where to even start.

  You did a good job.

  Thanks to this series being suggested on another thread I am hooked on Walking Dead.

  I have found a violent streak in me I never knew existed before and am delighted when a baddie "gets it"!

  *** km 2/94 p. 6 par. 19 How Beneficial to Recount What Jehovah Has Done! ***

  19 See the Opportunities Open to You: As you read and discuss Jehovah’s Witnesses—Proclaimers of God’s Kingdom, you will find unfolding to your view the grand fulfillment of Isaiah 60:22The little one himself will become a thousand, and the small one a mighty nation. I myself, Jehovah, shall speed it up in its own time.”

  The book states on page 519: “Fulfillment of the promise that ‘the little one would become a thousand’ has surely come to pass, and abundantly so! In each of more than 50 lands where there was not even a ‘little one’—where there were none of Jehovah’s Witnesses back in 1919, where they had done no preaching at all—there are today more than a thousand praisers of Jehovah. In some of these lands, there are now tens of thousands, yes, even more than a hundred thousand, of Jehovah’s Witnesses who are zealous proclaimers of the Kingdom of God! Worldwide, Jehovah’s Witnesses have become ‘a mighty nation

  Best I could find. There was another one in Ezekiel, something about sticks but it really was like clutching at straws.

  I never knew there was so much stupidity. What makes it scary is that's what was caught on camera. How much more is there that wasn't filmed?

  Confused about Satan's plan according to WTS

  by new22day in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  my rudimentary understanding of jw beliefs is that satan is leading traditional christian religions and the wild beast of the un is his tool.

  is the wts concept that the un will eventually ban all religion and this will start the big a?

  wouldn't satan be working at cross purposes if 'he' is leading the false religions too??

  I was told Satan's most successful strategy to date was to get people to believe he doesn't even exist.

  No religion = no Satan and then the end will come.

  If I was Satan I would be hiding demons in charity shops, ouija boards and guaranteeing those attending seances all got an appearance just to prolong the "short time" until my ultimate demise, coz don't forget although he gets locked up for 1000 years he will be let loose for a short time afterwards. However I am starting to feel this short time might actually be quite a long time if it is the same amount of time as soooooon.

  Eggnog?

  Original recipe makes 12 servings

  • 4 cups milk

  • 5 whole cloves

  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • 12 egg yolks

  • 1 1/2 cups sugar

  • 2 1/2 cups light rum

  • 4 cups light cream

  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

  Directions

  1. Combine milk, cloves, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla, and cinnamon in a saucepan, and heat over lowest setting for 5 minutes. Slowly bring milk mixture to a boil.
  2. In a large bowl, combine egg yolks and sugar. Whisk together until fluffy. Whisk hot milk mixture slowly into the eggs. Pour mixture into saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly for 3 minutes, or until thick. Do not allow mixture to boil. Strain to remove cloves, and let cool for about an hour.
  3. Stir in rum, cream, 2 teaspoon vanilla, and nutmeg. Refrigerate overnight before serving.

  If that is too complicarted buy a bottle of Advocaat and mix it with lemonade and a dash of angostura bitters topped off with a cherry on a cocktail stick.

  Is this true?

  the verdict is in!.

  almost all of the anti-jehovah's witness organization have been completely quiet about the arrest and detention of the person in denmark who posted on the "yourselves and to all of the flock", and the society's other secret documents, in violation of international copyright laws.
