  DA: Today I used my typewriter and fountain pen

  by Mandrake in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  last week my mother (i live with her) gave me some clues that she finally awoke, and well, that came to be true and we now speak openly against many many things i considered taboo to talk to her.

  so with that achieved, it was time for a delayed duty, i took my typewriter one wrote my da letter, and signed it with my favorite fountain pen, with my "trade mark" royal blue ink (everyone in the hall knew me for using that color and type of pen).

  i will hand it to the elders tomorrow, in february 14th, the "day of love".

  1974 Special Meetings

  by NeonMadman in

  as we all know, armageddon was just around the corner in 1974. at the district conventions that year, it was announced that there would be two special meetings during the month of september; one would be for interested people (e.g., bible studies, family members, inactive, etc.

  ), and the other would be for baptized publishers.

  these were to be held in place of the service meetings for the two weeks, iirc.

  A question on natural selection

  by The Rebel in

  2. friends

  last friday my boy of ten was very late back from school, so i called the school, they called the police, and to cut a long horrible exsperience short he had been helping a younger boy fly his kite.. but what has occurred to me is that when orlando was 5 years old he was totally dependent on mummy and daddy, whilst horses, cats, birds and other animals are born and are independent within days.. so my question on natural selection is, how are we humuns still here?.

  the rebel..

  Hi Rebel,

  Whilst watching a documentary on penguins, what struck me was the anxiety exhibited by parents and chicks when they were lost to each other.

  We lost our eldest daughter when she was 3 in a furniture store. Store was closed down. Staff and public searched frantically for nearly 45mins. I was traumatised and sinking into unconsciousness the longer this went on. Police were called because a little 5yr old girl missing in Edinburgh had just been found murdered that weekend. Daughter was found in a lounge setting sitting comfortably, swinging her legs, humming the tune to her favourite tv programme, staring at a blank tv screen. Waaaah!

  Stuck, I was devastated. I cried solidly for about 6 days. My DH was worried. I actually wanted to end it all. Thank goodness for the people on this forum. Words cannot express my gratitude.

  Ooh ooh KateWild,

  I'm with you on that one. The German language has a fantastic word to describe the feeling one gets when people get their comeuppance - Shadenfreude (hope it's spelt correctly, or my autocorrect is getting a freakin' kicking).

  Overlapping Generation

  by pandorasbox1914 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the september 2015 broadcast had david splane explain matthew 24:34 “truly, i say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things take place”.

  his explanation of this scripture was by means of a chart to indicate an overlapping generation.. .

  no scripture was used to show the overlapping generation concept, and as a result it makes no sense.. to illustrate how crazy this concept is, look at the lyrics of the song my generation.. my generation.

  Hi pandoradbox1914,

  Thank you for your post. And any contributors for helping me finally understand what I didn't understand about the WTBT$'s explanation re the overlapping situation!!! Fisherman's and OUTLAW'S banter was cool.
