  Who’s The Best Actor/Actress? Who Is Overrated??

  by minimus in

  one of my favorite actors is robert de niro.

  some of his later movies were so so but overall i think he was outstanding.

  meryl streep, i just never thought she was anything exciting yet people say she’s the best actress of all time.

  Ever notice a lot of JWs don't have pets?

  i was told by several elders to not get a dog when i was looking for one in the 80s.

  the end was close and we needed to focus on the preaching work.

  i know some have pets but a lot don't.

  Jws don't view life as being on a continuum. It borders too close to supporting evolution in their minds.

  So there are animals - dumb and unreasoning and basically beasts,

  And then theres man! Created in Gods image!

  I dont think the leadership wants to encourage the flock in finding out how smart and "like us" animals are.

  Plus, you need to donate those dollars NOT buy dog biscuits!

  Secret memo to Circuit Overseers "former child abuser" who was elder\MS moved to another congregation

  by BottleGate_ in

  in 1998, #watchtower mailed a secret memo to all circuit overseers in which it was announced that when a "former child abuser" who was also an elder or ms moved to another congregation, the new congregation would **not** be informed of his past sins.

  read: institutional cover-up!

  Interesting that IF the molester is an appointed servant and some years have passed since the "incident" then he gets a free pass and the record doesnt follow him.

  i`m just curious about the lifestyle they themselves are enjoying compared to the millions of followers they have in the jw religion.do any of the gb members have private homes that they own and live in ?

  or do they and their wives live in a communal arrangement .?

  if they do have private homes they own and live in what type of suburb/area do they live in ?

  Upon learning of a terminal illness would you return to being a JW to appease your family?

  by NVR2L8 in

  this is an hypothetical question...i am doing well.

  but i was thinking about how my jw family, grandchildren and all will feel when their inactive grandfather dies with no hope of being reunited in paradise.

  of course there would be immediate rejoicing if i came back to the "truth" and a surge of conditional love from the "friends".

  Don't the Witnesses teach that the basic masses will be resurrected if they die before Armageddon on the basis of the ransom sacrifice?

  So why wouldnt that same teaching cover the inactive JW?

  Or are we talking about the standing of a DFd person here?

  I don't think shes accomplishing anything lasting but there's the potential for damage to her young psyche.

  Shame on her parents for selling her out.

  Thank you all for the comments.

  I have a very good friend who is PIMO who told me they had added in the old pubs now.

  I too am wondering about the modifications that might have been done.
