Leisurely strolls, long coffee breaks at Starbucks and never approaching ANYBODY!

good idea.".
What about things you'll never hear children say at a Kingdom Hall?
"Aww Mum! Do we have to go home now?"
"Mum, can I have my own magazine order so I can work my 'school territory"?
"Why can't everyone be quiet, I'm trying to listen!"
"Now THAT was an fun!!"

edited to remove crappy image link
let's assume that there are about 9,000,000 armageddon survivors (baptised jw's and their children), after just 30 years every survivor will be sexually mature and with increased vigour and health.. .
chemical contraception, condoms, i.u.d's etc will all be long gone so any married couple with a normal sex-drive will be producing children at an average rate of about 1 per year.. .
world population at the beginning of the 20th century was less than 1.5 billion.
I've really struggled with this.
I was raised in the 'truth' and took it all to heart while growing up. I was quite a serious kid and even in my teens and twenties I would NEVER have thought of having sex while still single and distressing Jehovah so!
I can hear some of you thinking, "What was wrong with him?"
Well I don't know, but whatever it was it's haunting me still.
Life as a Jehovah's Witness really screwed me sexually. I'm out of the org now but still wearing those shackles.
This really sucks!

Imagine
John Lennon
Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...
hundreds of pages about the wts - un scandal are written on this board.
for those who dont have the time to read all these posts i have written a brief article about this issue: "watchtower society disassociates itself from the united nations' dpi after media exposure".

Kent, keep saying to yourself; "company not competition! company not competition!"
it's completely crap!
but hilarious too - i entered the keywords 'faith' and 'religion' and this is what it gave me!!!.

This one for you Freddie!
..................................................................
Watching Athena from the crystalline head.
Scoff not at my vile remarks flowing fiend
Hearken to thy elbow as salaciousness overcomes thee
Winky, the precise little lawyer smiled with a cherib grin
The day wearies, the hunting of snails is fruitless, come to my embrace
Like Brett, Fredhall flopped in violent circles -- his anguish exposed
"Duck, you stupid spider!" argued Fredhall' his voice gone
Listless never, helpless never, but most certainly considering
What did Fredhall have in his thumb?
