30 hrs? I learned to fly a plane in 30 hrs. & had lots more fun. I figured of my 50 yrs in I already gave over 3,000 hrs. Could have been an airline pilot with those hours. Those who decide to pioneer, keep flapping those arms. Never know when you might actually fly.

Is anyone here doing April's 30 hour Auxillary Pioneer Special ?
by RubaDub ini know there are many active jw's here and was just wondering if anyone is going to take advantage of april's special of only 30 hours for the month.. i actually might, just to irk some of the elders that can't figure me out in their minds.. it would involve 2 long days ... that's it.
even i can go out in fs in the morning with the group and hang out at bus stops and train stations the rest of the day.. i am really tempted.. rub a dub.

"Do NOT go beyond the things written (but we can)."
by TimothyT ini was doing some research yesterday on this scripture: 1 corinthians 4:6!.
"now, brothers, these things i have transferred so as to apply to myself and a?pollos for your good, that in our case you may learn the [rule]: do not go beyond the things that are written, in order that you may not be puffed up individually in favor of the one against the other.".
read this from the watchtower 2008, april 15th, page 7:.

You have to wonder where is the Holy Spirit in all of this. As the one true channel for God, where was the Holy Spirit as they wrote one thing only to change their minds? Was it on vacation? Maybe it decided to deceive them to test their loyalty. Doesn't sound like an organization marked by love does it? This so smacks of the way the scribes & pharisees kept the rank & file in line. JC really thought those guys were as low as pond scum. Looks like the GB has been reading their play book. They should have read farther. Things did not turn out well for them.

what was the worst meeting you ever attended ?
by man in black inhere's mine :.
back in the early 90's we went to the sunday talk and wt study.. lo and behold, a friend from the 70's who was df'ed ( he had just been reinstated) was there along with his parents.
i had no idea that they would have been there.. one of my kids was getting sick, so my wife and i were up-down the entire meeting walking him around.

Back in 1968 I was a teenager driving mom & my siblings to Sunday meeting. There was a dead skunk in the road & I was sure I could straddle it. Instead I hit the thing dead on. The whole car & everyone in it stunk. Mom insisted we continue on to the meeting. Even though we sat in the back, the whole hall reeked. We got dirty looks for 2 hrs. It took a while to live that one down.

I'd have to go with Ginger. Mary Ann looks too much like my dead mother.

Arrogance & hypocrisy. This trickles down from the GB to the DO's & CO's who teach it to the elders who bestow this gift on the gulible. And the gulible are the classic example of "a little bit of knowledge being a dangerous thing." Good luck. Those lurking get out of this organization now.

Higher Education June 15th Watchtower 2011

Same old crap. Anyone can say year after year, decade after decade, century after century that the end is near. That warning has no merit. In the meantime, plan for a future. MR. QUIK SAYS THE END IS NEAR. (I'll keep saying this until it actually is the end or an end or something climatic.) AND THEN ALL SHALL KNOW OF MY GREAT ALL KNOWING POWER!!!

I Do Believe in Armageddon!

none the less major earth changes leading up to 2012.. events where 80%+ of the earth's population is going away!.

Thanks for the date. Makes me want to get closer to God. Maybe I should join an organization. Yeah, one that believes that the end could come at any time. Perhaps one that includes me warning my neighbors... that would be good. I could also go to their meetings ..... often. I mean who would dare miss out on some important information..... probably from God himself. I certainly would want to support such an organization financially of course. I mean, after all, I certainly will not need money. If only someone could recommend one for me.........

The Great Tribulation May Have Started
by headisspinning inmy ex husband who is a jw just sent me this:.
"the world is on the precipice of a major multifaceted crisis.
the great tribulation may have just started.. .

You're right Billy. Whatever happened to that long line of current events that was to precede "The Great Tribulation"? I read just a few months ago in a WT that the end could come AT ANY TIME. Evidently the "Revelation" book was mostly crap. And to think I wasted all those Tuesday nights studying so diligently.
