What would be your favorite job if you could do anything.?
by new hope and happiness inon the basis that most of us realise the w.t wasnt really the best " job" or way to spend our days, it would be fun to find out what people would really have liked to have done with there lifes and if this is still possible.
or maybe its not even a very realistic ambition just a dream.
in my dreams i stay at home all day and make a living from being a professional artist.maybe i need a phycholgist?.

First Last Name...go online and order the brochures and funding documents for a neuroscience degree. Do it now buddy! See what grades you need to get in, if you don't have the exact grades, go order the brochures and funding applications to get the grades necessary done. By september you WILL be on your path to fulfilling a life dream or a life goal. It is that simple. I know, I did it.
The key to doing these things is soooooo simple..... just fuc*ing do them!
Yesterday I read a book on top of a mountain, looking down at the sea. I was lying in the grass under the sun and realised how happy I was. To my right in a valley was my accomodation and my hospital. I felt so content, I was in the right place and time in the universe for me, doing the right things for me, I somehow have become an emergency physician at age 33, when at age 25 I had nothing, not even the grades. No money, no hope, no nothing. I had just lost my religion, just lost my friends and some of my family. I could't even get a crap job and had an inevitible low mood and apathy and soon I was homeless. I felt trapped, like I had no power over a prewritten script that was my shitty existence.
8 years of education later......
Yesterday on the mountain, I realised how much I have shaped my own life for myself, I had lost everything and so what else was there but to be my own maker, self determining the world around me. Less than a decade later I am not only doing well, I am doing my childhood dream, medicine.
It is as simple as doing it.....sorry to repeat it again, but that is the truth of the matter. Just do it.
I know I am so fortunate to answer this question this way, but .... I wouldn't swap my job for anything in the world.

Jam, we were all functioning with presupositions and programmed minds, almost like robots. Don't be too tough on yourself.
Also, there is plenty of time to make up for it. This is half my motivation for being informed now.

WARWICK — Precursory site work on The Watchtower Bible and Tract Society's 45-acre Jehovah’s Witnesses World Headquarters project in Sterling Forest has been completed, meaning construction of the planned eight-building complex on Long Meadow Road along the Warwick-Tuxedo town line is poised to begin in earnest.
The Warwick Town Board on June 12 agreed to reduce Watchtower's town-mandated $33.103 million performance bond by a third to signify the completion of approximately one-third of the project.
Bond reduction totals $11.114 million
Watchtower Bible and Tract Society of New York Associate General Counsel Richard Moake and spokesman David C. Day, a Newfoundland attorney who has represented Jehovah Witness clients in significant Canadian religious freedom rulings, said the $11.114 million bond reduction means preliminary site work has been completed and inspected.
Day said construction will "begin soon" on the site and the project is on track to be completed "by the end of 2016."
Watchtower Bible and Tract Society of New York - Jehovah Witnesses - purchased 253 acres in Tuxedo and Warwick along Long Meadow Road within 22,000-acre Sterling Forest State Park in 2009, including the former 50-acre International Paper plant in Tuxedo.
The Jehovahs now produce their nationally published magazine, "The Watchtower," from their Tuxedo plant and plan to move their world headquarters from Brooklyn to a site near the plant on Long Meadow Road in Warwick.
Last July, the Warwick Town Planning Board approved the Jehovah's world headquarters proposal, which calls for a 45-acre campus including an administration building, services building with kitchen, laundry, storage and infirmary; four residential buildings housing 588 one- and two-bedroom units for approximately 1,000 residents; a vehicle maintenance building; a waste-separation plant; a powerhouse/maintenance building, and a gym. Most parking will be in attached underground parking structures.
Code enforcement officer upgraded
Warwick Town Supervisor Michael Sweeton said with construction gaining momentum and bound to "take up a great deal of time," the town has added a full-time code enforcement officer to its staff to help handle the anticipated spike in the project's pace.
Sweeton said Daniel P. Gibson, a part-time town building inspector, will be retained full-time with an annual salary of $70,000 that will be paid by the impact fees generated by the project."

I was told the dinosaurs were used to flatten the earth by my parent.
I was also told in australia by young JW's that they were told demons burined the bones to test us.

org is dying
by lambsbottom ini don't understand why so many ex jws and faders think that the jws will continue to grow and thrive as a religion.
i still attend a meeting once a week and you can smell the death of the religion creeping up when you hear the talks, read the study wts and hear the letters from the gb.
the way the organization has changed is a sign that it reached its peak (in "healthy" membership) long ago.

Whether it lives on a 100 years or dies in the information age of now, it matters not. It is still a vindictive lie wrapped in a cult, packaged as hope. Some can't resist the offer of a free package so the numbers may grow......some will always be too afraid when they find the package empty and the threats begin, so some nimbers will remain.
If you are here at this forum, you are one of the lucky ones.
Go live the real life and remember...
Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice.....shame on me.

"New Light" discretely slipped in on the 2014 regional convention: Paradise in heaven.
by EdenOne in2014 regional convention:.
on friday, on the last speech of the morning, (the "key speech"), a bethel member slipped in some "new light" rather casually, without much fuss.
he mentioned the out-of-body experience of the apostle paul, in 2 corinthians 12:2-4, where he experienced being "caught up to the third heaven ... caught up to paradise and heard inexpressible words...".

The manure they spew out to their members is nonsense, it is illogical, uninformed, ignorant nonsense. Anyone with a shred of knowledge of ancient Jewish beliefs knows of the 7 layers of heaven and the bible writers for Paul were obviously referring to these.
There are 8 men in Brooklyn either outright making bible intepretations up on the spot, despite their window cleaning backgrounds or giving the nod to likewise ignorant uneducated members of the writing team looking to make a name for themselves with a new idea.
When I say ignorant and uneducated, they are not trained in history, ancient languages, ancient beliefs, nor ade they bible scholars.
At the end of the day it is pseudo-truth, pseudo-knowledge........utter bullshit.
Flick on the history channel for 2 minutes to hear real knowledge, pawn stars will do! Far more accurate info from Chumlee...
