many who have been a jw since the 70- 80s remember the jw dramas coming out yearly.. today they are movies but to the topic.... many of the voice actors are the same.. one however is plain odd.. lets list his roles as i remember:.
the exodus drama: janes.
gideon drama: an anger worshiper of baal.
Htbwc, you have watched too many of their dramas!
hi everyone i'm 19 year old and i've been a jehovahs witness for 3 years now.
i've followed the rules and i'm even a pioneer.
but i've hid the secret of a boyfriend i had from india.
Letty , have you ever seen your boyfriend from India? In person?
hi guysin the last year i have started to socialise a lot more.
namely comedy and a tennis social club.. for a variety of reasons i find socialising tough.
in my tennis club a couple of women have been extremely rude to me and i have blocked one from my phone and refuse to speak to both.. is my behaviour extreme?paul.
I think refusing to be civil is a extreme that demeans those women and makes others uncomfortable around you. We all experienced shunning and felt for the shunnned. Being civil is not pretending anything, it’s polite and part of living in civilization. If they are harassing you blocking their calls is legit and you have no obligation to take any call even if you just don’t like them. But refusing to speak in public is awkward for everyone. Not necessary. You don’t need to extend any warm fuzzies but a lax handshake will send the message without being rude
i got the latest memorial invite on my door sometime today.
i work from home.
between the time i drop the kids at school and pick them up, i was here.
I remember all the talk about how we didn’t celebrate he unscriptural Christmas but the decreed remembrance of the death , then quoting scripture about how the day of ones death is better then the day of ones birth and therefore we commemorate the death of Jesus
blah blah blah

ties are out.
tats are acceptable.
Ties are out. Tats are acceptable. Will JW change their dictates since acceptable business standards have veered away from dress for success standards of 50s?
Anyone else kind of amused by the fact that they want you to dress like you are successful in business office world, but the first suggestions about clothes are how a new recruit can find a suitable suit or dress at the charity store? Then you are discouraged for striving for the material success that they want to portray? No hypocrisy there.
no, charles taze russell was not a pennsylvania freemason!.
this is the answer i received in a letter: .
"after a search of our records, we determined that the three russell's were not members of our organization.
I don't know much about masons though my father in law had a memorial or something by his local lodge which the family attended. He was prominent in his community.
My limited understanding is that one initiates and then rises through the ranks. Wouldn't there be records of them before they entered the higher levels even if the higher degrees are not necessarily recorded?
I was with father In law at death. No toga was requested or oiffered.
I dont believe Catholics are accepted as Masons or they are not allowed (religiously) to join. This was a contentious issue between Catholic husband and his dad.

memorial invitation : subliminal message.
at first glance, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the invitation but on closer look a disturbing detail becomes apparent.it is in the upper right corner of the illustration of jesus christ celebrating the last supper with his disciples in the upper room...there seem to be trees outside the window but on closer inspection, all thanks to the pdf format of the invitation that allows you a very close look down to the fine detail, these are not trees but letters!!!.
So, they had a convention of male baristas. . .
Why? She had other stuff on her plate. That book wasn't going anywhere. Her husband is gone forever.
well 55 yo this summer times flies.. was in my late thirties when i started thinking about getting braces or some other treatment for my crowded teeth.
decided to put it off a few years later as 'the new system' ™ was right around the corner.
then went through a huge burn out depression and my teeth became a lesser priority.
My son had too much teeth for his jaw and ortho removed two for braces. Gorgeous! My bro in law actually needed his jaw realigned with some surgery. Again, very good results. He had a badly shaped jaw and he went from looking kind of awkward to quite handsome. Too be sure, he always was cuter than he thought. Don't shortchange yourself.
