  Random Thoughts on Getting Older

  by Lee Elder in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the reality that all of us ultimately must face is that we get older and our bodies, and our minds eventually fail us.

  i have seen this first hand in my family, in the jw community, and in the ex-jw community.

  it is simply a sad part of the human condition, as is physical, emotional, and mental illness.

  I must say the biggest thing I have a hard time wrapping my mind around is when I die my thoughts cease to existence. I am no more.

  Amen brother - its alway on my mind. 2nd biggest thing is that I had so many years stolen.

  The Amazing Teeth of the Great White Shark

  by LoveUniHateExams in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  great white sharks are able to subdue and eat almost anything they come across, thanks to their amazing teeth.

  consider: the great white shark (carcharodon carcharias) needs to catch and process food in order to survive.

  its teeth are remarkable, being arranged in rows and rows that move forward, like a conveyor belt, so that these animals always have a full set of functioning teeth at any one time.. furthermore, the shape of this shark's teeth changes throughout its life.

  Wait? I thought animals would live in peace and not eat each other?
  I thought you could not have Paradise in a world where Animals killed animals?

  i saw this on reddit:.

  https://www.reddit.com/r/exjw/comments/5mlgsm/2017_yearbook_of_jehovahs_witnesses/.

  overall the numbers are better than last year (1.8% growth compared to 1.5% last year -- as i predicted ;-) ) with an increase in all major figures including 1300 more congregations (i assume this is not physical kingdom halls?).

  This is interesting about the Money Spent on Special Pioneers.

  They had a 36% decrease in Special Pios - but only 10% decrease in funds needed.

  My fav stat is this!
  13,673 hrs in service to gain 1 person as an average publisher.

  That is SOO SAD!

  growth was only 145,079 in ave pubs.

  ALSO by my count 87 countries showing ZERO or NEGATIVE growth. I think that 10 more than last year:)\

  LOVE this on page 2 - what a joke:)

  That vision reminds us that the celestial part of Jehovah’s universal organization is always on the move. And the earthly part? The past service year has clearly shown that Jehovah is moving his organized people on earth at an amazing pace as well!

  Irregular to meetings, can I partake in memorial?

  by Squekylive in

  hi friends .

  i don't believe in jw doctrines anymore but because of family i have to be a jw for now.. i am not regular to meetings, and don't answer in meeting, but i report some hours so i remain as active jw now.. .

  congregation knows that i am not spiritual and i don't talk to people and i don't care what they think about me.. now, i believe it's important to observe lord's supper as a christian as per john 6:53, so in the coming memorial if i attend i want to partake in the communion,.. i believe it is a sin to pass the bread and wine inspite of knowing it's flesh and blood of jesus.. it's like rejecting jesus.. so i want to partake.. but i dont consider i am anointed etc.

  6 New Kingdom Halls Built In The US This Year

  by James Jack in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  on our local needs part tonight, the elder (on the local ldc), conducting the part, said he just got back from a meeting in memphis tn with members from the us branch rdc conducting the meeting.

  they mentioned that only 6 new kingdom halls and 2 major re-models were completed in 2016.

  "it may seem like a small accomplishment, considering under the old rbc arrangement there was some 700 projects on the average each year being done", "but, this is going 5-10 years of training to kick this new program into optima production".

  6 new halls clearly shows Jehobers blessing!
  The mighty god has such an amazing message transmitted by so many amazing teachers using indisputable facts!

  The only reason this cult keeps going is because it uses cult tactics keeping those 2nd and 3rd gen followers in by strongarm tactics - not dissimilar to other cults like Scientology.
