Words that were ok to use as a witness

by jamesmahon in

this follows on from the other thread on michael jackson and an earlier one this morning.

sufficiently different to start a new thread i thought though.. on the mj thread i had a bit of a poke at glander and used a load of anti-gay terms.

what i thought was interesting was that they were all terms that i used to use as a witness.

We had a talk on using the word fag once. It was pretty lame. The argument was that a fag was a bundle of sticks. Still not sure of the point of that talk. Pretty sure the elder giving it didn't have his heart in it. I have a feeling the right intention was there but they really didn't know how present it. BTW it didn't stop us from saying it. I remember being sensitive to most racial comments. Still made a few jokes now and then but no where close to how openly we used gay insults. I don't think it was a Jdub thing though. I remember the same thing in school. I graduated HS in 1983 to give a time frame.

WT Q&A Study Method

by leaving_quietly in

for years, i've never understood why we read a paragraph, ask a question, and then recite what we just read in the paragraph, and at the wt study, it's an hour long period of severe boredom because, well, how many times can we recite the same stuff over and over?

even new ones who come in have been baffled at this method of teaching.

i have a theory, though.. however, i just read the "what is sacred service?

Funny (not ha ha funny) how so many of the thing the dubs say about others apply equally to themselves.

Strain the gnat swallow the camel frequently comes to mind.

Aren't Jehovah's Witness Child Baptisms Lovely?

by God_Delusion in

howdy guys and gals!.

aren't jehovah's witness child baptisms lovely?.

The picture does say cult but I don't think it is picture of a JW baptism. Which of course makes it another win for the dubs being able to point the finger at "apostate" lies. That being said I do think it is wrong for a 7 yo to make that decision. I was 18 and don't think I knew what I was getting into.

stake or cross?

This is one of the things that helped me leave. I realized that the jws spent way too much time trying to prove something that really doesn't matter.

Hedge Funds

by tornapart in

i know this has been covered before but i came across this video and feel sickened by it..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hr2jn0ntmjy&feature.

mynameislame

Please! Investing in a hedge fund is not the same thing as gambling. It is sad that they do the right thing with their money while instructing the dubs not to save for the future.
I wonder how good their returns are maybe we could start a watch the watchtower investing club.
And that video only gives ammunition to the JWs for use against us "apostates"

i like that picture a lot.

i was a bit thinner then, my hair had rather less gray in it.

it was taken when i was swimming with the dolphins on a shore excursion during a cruise in 2007. nonetheless, i look somewhat different now.

mynameislame

Neo it should be automatic. It took mine ten min or so. Maybe it doesn't work when you already had a custom picture already?

CB, I think you can add email accounts to gravitar once you sign up. I am not sure if you have to verify them or not but worth a try.

You need to sign up at http://en.gravatar.com/ with the email you used to set up your account here.

From there is should be pretty easy to figure out.

You need to rate the photo as G rated or else it won't be displayed.

The Photoshop Tutorial page.

by ScenicViewer in

in flyinghighnow's wildflower page, she asked how an image could be added to another photo, and i thought to reply in a new thread.. i have noticed there are plenty of experienced photoshop users on this board who would likely have many tips to share with other users.. feel free to ask questions, or provide answers here.

my experience is limited, but i will help where i can, and i hope to learn from others.. there are many capable programs other than photoshop, so feel free to post about any of them you are familiar with.. there is often an easier way to do something, so any shortcuts are welcome!.

how to add an image to another photo.

The Gimp is open source (free) with many of the same features of Photoshop.

(and you can find a tutoral for just about anything by searching google)

Windows users can use the " Download GIMP 2.8.0 " – Installer for Windows XP SP3 or later version link.

Not sure if they have it for the Mac, Linux usersx can probably figure out where to get it on their own.
