Don't forget the part where we're only human & make mistakes but at the same time can make life or death decisions for you because we're Jah's only true channel of communication. We're not sure who's responsible when we screw up, so don't ask...... or we'll kick your ass out.

I was going to get her a bike. The consensus of the other married men in the office was that I would be treading on thin ice with a present like that. As it's also my anniversary, I thought overkill would be a better avenue to take. Bought her a card that plays her favorite tune from our wedding, roses, chocolates, dinner and a cruise to the Caribbean. Seemed to work pretty well. I do like the lobster angle though.

Which generation do you belong to ?
by edmond dantes inask a witness which generation do you belong to and see if they really know how to answer.. i have decided that every time i hear a true definition of the meaning of a generation i will post it here just to reinforce the true meaning just in case a stray jw happens to look in on here.. yesterday evening i was watching an antiques programme on the television and under discussion was a very well made baby high chair from about the nineteen thirties and the approximate date of manufacture and the length of time it had been in the family.
the expert then went on to confim how old it was and in doing so said that considering who first purchased the chair and the length of a generation that it was from the thirties and went on to say that we consider a generation to be about 25 years.. that is a truer definition of a generation than a watchtower definition.. .

I can't believe they can blow off Jesus' understanding of a generation. In the account at Matthew 24 the "generation" that Jesus described was 37 years long. He predicted the fall of Jerusalem in 33 CE. If fell in 70 CE, long enough for those who heard the warning to benefit from it. Must be he didn't have the new light.

For those of us who remember field service, it typically was a car full of witnesses avoiding any contact with people. Several of us had the same call on one elderly lady because she always invited us in. Even as an elder I knew this was totally a waste of time. No one I ever called on intially ever could have come away with an impression that this was a dire warning & I just condemned them to death.

I can't wait for the GB direction where everyone sells their earthly possessions & gives all the cash to them. With that stockpile, they could wait out another century.

They'll be dropping the literal number doctrine fairly soon I imagine. This will be bought by the rank & file without batting an eyelash. I stopped into a coffee shop on Saturday morning to see old "friends" warming up from field service while trying not to look at me. Now I just smile back & enjoy life. I had a close friend of 40 yrs. die & no one could be bothered to let me know. So here's a quick note to an old friend. John- sorry to hear of your death. I remember your humor & humility. I pass under a bridge on the NYS Thruway every morning & imagine all who have gone before me on the bridge looking down. I'll add you as well. See you again somewhere....sometime. TAG.

Any actual Witnesses here?
by trthskr ini found this site hoping to read topics submitted by jw's so i could learn more, but it just seems to be everyone else here except them.
just about every topic and member is just bashing jw's and their teachings.
this site should be renamed "jwbashertrolls.net".

Well truth seeker; if it was the truth you were so fervently looking for, I hope our little band of JW's, ex-JW's and other members have been of service. Happy to show you the truth. Not quite the response you were looking for?

Review of Examining the Scriptures Daily 2012 absurdities
by jwfacts ini just endured the painful process of trudging through the 2012 examining the scriptures daily, looking for interesting quotes.
apart from being repetitively boring, it has managed to squeeze most of the watchtower's crazy concepts into a single book.

Good Morning Paul;
As usual, your research & insight are right on the money. Here we have a saying " If you can't dazzle them with your brillance, baffle them with your bullsh**t." It's just's so sad to realize how many never question the bullsh**t. Have a great 2012.
