You know there were nights when I prayed VERY emotionally to the point of tears. Usually when I was going through some hardship. Hours of pouring out my heart and soul....Hours wasted. Not a single one of those prayers I wasted so much emotional energy on were answered. F**k the Watchtower God Jehovah.

Jehovah DOES hear and answer our prayers...........
by punkofnice in.........the same way pink spotted unicorns do skip in my garden!.
now i'm not saying a god does or doesn't exist but the brand name god of the watchtower certainly doesn't exist.
he is the magic imaginary friend in the sky that jws talk to telepathically.. .

What caught me by surprise was my reaction to this video. I actually let out an "awwww" with a bit of emotional laughter and tears. I can't believe I felt that way over the video!
Here's a similar one with a little girl.

How many of you were in Dramas at the D.C. ?

I've always dreaded the idea of being in one of those. I had no interest in physical acting. The dramas always felt so corny and the voice acting was terrible and the physical acting was over done and exagerrated sometimes. They chose my dad a couple of times and once they chose a huge number from our congregation. I felt so relieved they didn't ask me to participate in that circus disaster of a drama. I wonder if there's ever been a huge noticable blooper on one of those. Falling off the stage would be kinda funny!

I saw a sad sight yesterday.
by wobble ini was strolling up our high street, trying to avoid the sally army chuggers, when coming towards me was an elderly lady, she suddenly approached a young lady and offered her a tract, the girl refused.. the old dear was weirdly dressed in very old-fashioned clothes that still screamed "pioneer",they can't have been exactly fashinable when they were new, she must have been in her seventies, but was weird looking, not helped by bright orange hair and very red lipstick, i checked, and she was holding the tract "you can trust the bible" (oh yea??).
i have not seen anyone doing street work for ages in our town, even she was not that dedicated, she dodged in to a charity shop and had a look at what was on offer,still counting her time i guess.. i thought of engagng her in conversation, but then i thought no, better to leave her in the cult, she will do more harm reinforcing the impression that jw's are a bunch of weirdos by her desultory street work than she would if she woke up and left the dubs.. years ago we used to get a bunch of young people together and we would all go in street work, and to the markets etc.
we used to make it fun, as much as we could.. now all they have as the public face of the jw's is a sad, weird old lady.. i think we shall see this more and more, the glory days are gone for the wt.. good..

Yeah I remember when service consisted of a bunch of young people ages 15-25. We would go as a group as early as 6 in the morning to do street work, or sometimes just at the bus station. Those were some cold mornings in the fall-spring. About 15 degrees and below zero sometimes. But we made it fun and spent most of our time in a Dunkin Donuts or McDonald's just joking and laughing. I don't see that in the streets anymore. Now it's just sad lonely elderly people.

So my wife's cousin known as "Free" on this site told us of this new documentary coming soon. I'm not sure if it's coming soon to theatres, independent film theatres, or just dvd. the movie is called Truth Be Told. Here's a teaser trailer that doesn't show much except black and white images of people carrying a red bag. The bag is supposed to symbolize the emotional baggage that we all carry as a JW.

What good is punishment after you die?
by Lore inwhen your child disobeys, you punish him.
simple answer: so he will listen next time and won't disobey again.. if the child has a learning disorder and is incapable of learning from the punishment, odds are you will stop punishing him and will deal with his condition in other ways.. we punish children in order to change their behavior.
if the punishment does not promote a change in behavior the punishment is useless and possibly evil.. .

"Again, peace to you!" Must be said before and after every comment. Or else God will send you to a place full of smoke and fire and burning and torture and anguish where He will send you to live and suffer and burn and choke and scream and cry forever and ever till the end of time!......
......But He loves you! God is love. Again peace to you.

You came up with a question everyone thinks about but nobody asks out loud. I've always asked this in my mind. It would have to be a number far greater than what this planet could hold. We're in the billions now and we can still measure even "Googol". You know what that is? Googol is 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.
WIKIPEDIA:
Other names for googol include ten duotrigintillion on the short scale, ten thousand sexdecillion on the long scale, or ten sexdecilliard on the Peletier long scale.
A googol has no particular significance in mathematics, but is useful when comparing with other very large quantities such as the number of subatomic particles in the visible universe or the number ofchess game moves possible hypothetically. Edward Kasner used it to illustrate the difference between an unimaginably large number and infinity, and in this role it is sometimes used in teaching mathematics.
So maybe the Great Crowd has to reach Googol. If it does, then we need a bigger planet...seeing as how only 6 billion (6,000,000,000) is considered "overpopulation".
More proof that the Bible is BS.
