What will you do to celebrate Oct 2 2014?
by jwfacts inlike most people reading this, i was convinced that by 2014 the new system would 'definitely' have been operating for at least a decade.
now that i know this is not going to be the case i am going to have to think of some way to recognise 100 years of wts let downs and failed predictions.
there is no point fretting over the past so i think it will be a good time to celebrate.

Reddit Has Done a Great Job Lately at Exposing the Watchtower to Millions
by Emery in1.5 months ago there was a perfectly timed reddit topic about jw false prophecies that made it on to the front page of reddit.
this certainly didn't bold so well fortheir historic campaign.
the front-page of reddit had over 135 million unique visitors last month.

Wow, had never seen Reddit before, but scrolling down through the comments, I think more people have a handle on JW craziness that I realized. You think most people just think of them as "that religion that doesnt celebrate Christmas or salute the flag", but its good to see that more people are becoming familiar with how bat sh** crazy they are!

You dont realize what a blessing good neighbors are until you have bad ones. We have been blessed for 30 years with helpful, quiet, non intrusive neighbors. Good for you and have a great get away!

Plastic buckets in Paradise
by Sour Grapes ini remember one picture of a pretty little girl holding a plastic bucket in paradise next to a tame lion.. i asked my wife if there is going to be polution in paradise?
of course the answer is no!!!!!..
i asked her where did the plastic bucket come from?
-

Yeah, when I was growing up, anytime there was a question about paradise, they always said Jehovah will take care of it in a twinkling of the eye. Like, don't worry about it, don't speculate, just pick out the house that will be yours in the new system as you go from door to door in the upscale neighborhoods.

TimeBandit So sorry for your loss. Don't know where you live, but there are many, many vets around here and I know for a fact some of them make house calls to do what is needed with a very large dog. My daughter is a pet sitter and I work part time for her. One of her very first clients was a gi-normous Great Dane, Kaiser, a mottled grey color. He is the sweetest, most loving dog. I thought I would be afraid of him the first time I had to take care of him on my own, but for whatever reason he likes me and is always very protective of me. He sticks to me like glue when we are out, almost unbalancing me, but whatever, he is so funny. I am on the short side so we are almost eye to eye, ha. His mommy says he does the same to her, so that is a compliment.
Obviously we are animal lovers, we have several cats and through the years have had to make the very difficult decision. This past year several of my daughters clients have had their pets pass and believe me, when they call to let us know, we grieve along with them for the loss of a sweet friend. I believe it shows the true character of a person in how they feel about and care for animals. Silly as it may seem, I like to buy into the idea that many of my sweet kitties are waiting on the Rainbow Bridge for me!

Jim Trafacant

Just saw where he died today. He was an Ohio congressman who served time in prison on several federal charges, including tax evasion and dealings with mobsters. He had a very colorful career. Too bad, he was only 73, could have lived many more years in quiet retirement. But hey, according to the dubs, he will be resurrected because he died before the big A.

It's an Ohio thing, but when he was in office his hair piece was famous and made fun of on many national TV shows. Looked like he had a squirrel sitting on top of his head. Well at least the national media had something else to make fun of Northeast Ohio for other than our sports teams.

Do You Think All JWs Believe Whatever Their Religion Teaches?
by minimus inthat same question applies to catholics, jews, islamists, baptists and so on.
.
just because you belong to a religion, does it mean you espouse every idea that they have ever presented?.

The sad part, at least for me, is that I can't come right out and ask my brother or my cousins who are still in exactly how they feel or what all they believe. We grew up as one big close family, every one on my dads side a JW, mom, dad, brother, sister, aunts, uncles, cousins. My brother and most of my cousins are still in. All our parents are gone now, except for one aunt who is 88. We were the 1975 generation who were told not to go to college, etc. My sister blew that off and got her degree and had a great career in journalism. She is now very comfortable in her retirement, unlike most of my still in cousins.
I can't just sit down and say, "Hey brother, how do you really feel about this, do you still believe it all, all the changes, do you think those of us who had the brains and ambition should have gone to college. Should you have let your kids play sports in high school? Should cousins A & B have done more to plan for retirement? If this is the truth, why has everything changed, why are all those big boring books we studied on Tuesday nights no longer relevant? Why is it that if I wanted to come back after 30 years of being out, I would have to learn everything different? What kind of truth is it that has changed so much?"
And you know, as you all have said, we would get the same answers from them: well, it is new light, we are moving forward, imperfect men, and blah, blah, blah. It used to make me so frustrated but now I am at the stage where I honestly feel sorry for them and their closed minds and allowing themselves to be dictated to by those geezers in Brooklyn. And that is not a very good feelling, to feel sorry for your family.
