What is Nature's most perfect food?
by compound complex ingreetings, gourmands of the forum!.
i agree with garfield, but mayo comes in a close second.
slathering my pasta with an inch of best foods real mayonnaise (hellman's, east of the rockies) is close to heaven for me.

New "Annointed" Brother In My Old Hall...
by pale.emperor ini've only just stopped laughing.. in my old hall there's a brother who's now claiming to be of the anointed.. he's 28.. i do wonder if he's doing this for attention, if he's awake and messing with them, or if he really is that deluded.
when i was in he was an ms. which surprised even me because only a year earlier than that he was "a bit of a lad", is rubbish at talks and relies on his elder uncle to get him out of trouble all the time.. i guess this now means he's get his pick of jw sisters.
he's been after the same one as the rest of his peers since 2014..

So he evidently he is well traveled, now wants to make a trip to heaven, check out the culture, cuisine, climate, meet some new folks, see what they do for living. When he gets back he may write a book, Life In the Big Yonder. Just guessing, I could be wrong.

I'm out since 2010. Very seldom do they even stop at my house anymore. Sometimes when they do I know they don't want to talk, they knock softly, leave a watchtower pamphlet (no longer a magazine) and leave fast.

JW.org is a real estate and publishing company disguesd as a religion.
by UNCONDITIONAL LOVE insince my awakening i have tried to understand why and how people could continue to believe so blindly in a proven false "religious" cult that has such an extensive and detailed record of scandals, lies and cover ups???
i've come to the personal conclusion that there are three major reasons.
i call them the 3 f-ups!

Why would Jehovah God write the Ten Commandments on two tablets of stone ,in the first place ?
by smiddy3 ini mean to say he is the creator of the universe isn`t he ?
so why would he use such a method that is subject to crumbling over time ?.
i remember a jw talk/mag.

Prayers ,are they answered ? or is it just self delusion ?
by smiddy3 inafter 33 years as a jw and leaving 25 years ago i think prayer can be summed up with the jews praying at the wailing wall.. all they are doing is talking to a brick wall ,and getting no feed back.
and they expect an answer to their prayers ?!.
christians /other beliefs might find that funny but they are no better off.. prayer is always a one way street you talk either vocally or mentally to god however you never get the same back .. if god " so loved the world that he doesnt want any to be destroyed but have everlasting life " then whats the problem with him audibly answering his servants prayers ?

Here's some JW logic I remember. Your "enduring" severe persecution. Praying fervently for it to stop. Now your enemies kill you. PRESTO!!! Jeh answered your prayer!!! He "allowed you to die" affording you a "way out" of the persecution. Wow, what a great powerful god.
When I think about crap like this I understand why I was never 100% in.

Just another corporation contradiction. That god doesn't do personal miracles but will act on behalf of the organization. Let me say, if god answered a prayer it certainly would be a miracle. So which is it? Can't have it both ways

Here in the USA not allowed to open a high voltage cabinet without training and wearing the correct rated arc flash protection equipment. Look at some arc flash accidents on you tube.
