to answer my question, no i do not pray over meals anymore exept for when i am with other jws i do a 15 second head bow for appearances sake.
i just came to the realization god had nothing to do with whether i ate or not.
many believers are starving right now whilst many non-believers are eating like kings.. also why should god give me food while he lets little children in dprk concentration camps starve to death.
I pray that my taster doesn't die.
i first found and read this book as a young man during the early 1980s while visiting the bethel library.
this library was located at the world headquarters of jehovah's witnesses in brooklyn new york.
this book exists in its form now because of the interest that religion's leaders had in the original work seola, from where this book was adapted.
Jim Rizolli was a fellow apostate on another discussion board a few years ago, and he told about how an elderly JW woman he knew gace him a CASE ofthe old books. He digitized it and sells a reprint in hard-copy or kindle on Amazon.

Good for you!
Now you can return to school and learn to spell!
where do you guys find old tower books and material other than flea bay and their outragous prices?
looking for some of the old books..
The "Bible Students" still exist today, and they still believe everything that Chuck Russell taught. The have the "present truth" versions of all Pastor Chuck's books available online and in hard copy at very low prices.
If you are looking for VINTAGE Chuck Russell prognostications, eBay and patience are your best allies. Sometimes people dump "estate sale" WT libraries without knowing that some items have collector's value because of the aged-in-the-bottle bullshit they contain.
If you are ambulatory, you might want to wobble in to some of your local charity outlet stores if you have some in your area. They can also be a source of "estate sale" libraries, because Jehovah's Witnesses, contrary to their prophecies have not stopped dying - but of course they have the hope of a ressurrection. (fat chance!)
"...jamie coots lived and died consistent with his faith and his death will only inspire more people to obey an instruction from god in the gospel of mark that they shall take up serpents, said professor ralph hood, of the university of tennessee at chattanooga..." http://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/feb/17/jamie-coots-snake-handling-pastor-martyr?cmp=fb_us .
that jamie coots photograph: ap photo/courtesy national geographic channel.
apparently, he was bitted while handling a poisonous snake.
I encourage all who wish to handle snakes as a demonstration of their faith to do so as often as possible.
This is the only known cure for this stupid stupid meme.
i know that title sounds weird but so is this situation.
with the following information i'm about to desconspire myself a little bit, but i don't really care since i will simply deny it if any of my elders are lurking here.
anyway the situation is the following.
Did the Watchtower pay you for your balls or did you just give them away?
You are responsible for allowing yourself to be abused.
You're an adult, not some naive kid.
Or did you want silentlambs or someone else to come running to your rescue?
Maybe next time you log-in you can tell us how you threw the asshole out of your house.
i heard my witness friend that if the name jehovah is the incorrect pronounciation from the hebrew scriptures, then jeremiah is the incorrect way to say jeremiah's name.
i wonder if this is true, because if it is, that would make jws the true religion.
right?.
...and that is why we call ourselves "Jizzy-Hizzy's Wizzies" in jive.

mst, duane floyd checketts, 77 died in his sleep due to complications from pneumonia.
he is survived by his wife bette and two children, douglas checketts, patty smith, and 8 grandchildren.. duane, who was fondly called duke by everyone who knew him was born in farmington, utah on march 8, 1924. his father floyd, was one of 10 children raised in a tiny house built by his own mormon father who immigrated in the early 1860's from birmingham, england.
...and now Farkel himself is gone. I thought that Doug's eulogy for his Father should be "b.t.t.t.-ed" also.
valentines day.
another holiday that unbelieving spouses can't celebrate.
just one out of many holiday's and important days that we get the shaft on.
Kari, as I'm sure you know, Jehovah's Witnesses don't celebrate THANKSGIVING either ...AND YET when Thanksgiving rolls around, LOTS of JWs "take advantage of the sales and the time off from work" and have turkey dinners while their pagan neighbors are celebrating Thanksgiving.
So it is with VALENTINE'S DAY. This is the time of year that a person can "take advantage of the availabilty and the sale prices" to get a big, heart-shaped box of chocolates, or a big bunch of flowers.
If your guy wanted to bring you chocolates and flowers, Jehovah himself couldn't prevent him from doing so.
