  i have a 'loyal' witness relative suffering various watchtower-related trials, who, i believe, represents an emerging.

  new form of jehovah's witness.

  she seems to have a sort of 'spiritual schizophrenia'.

  from another thread:where else does the media so vividly show females as equal .

  Yes and No, dont ask me...

  Yes most men think women are inferior... average, their physical height is inferior and men tend to look down on them, just following the same reasoning you know.

  No, most men think women have more "knowledge" and sense of direction, they know when and how to steer the 'wheel'...

  MY opinion? (as a male) I first need to find out what "inferior" really means...can you help?

  can people be single and happy?

  the older i get the more i believe that being single is the way to go.there are so many advantages.just to name a few;.

  you can finish that college degree, go to the neighborhood bar anytime, do charity work, join a night class, stay out all night, flirt with anybody you please.

  what do i think?

  been on both sides of the fence, Great !!

  Generally speaking you have to be out of your mind (really in love) to give up your freedom and take more 'risk' in your life.

  Many people just do not function without a permanent attachment, do they have limited interests?.

  There are millions of persons (and animals) to show love to without expecting something in exchange...

  Ray Franz df'd , what did the society say ??????

  by run dont walk in

  2. scandals

  i remember vaguely, well all hell broke loose in the late 70's regarding, ray franz being df'd, and the witch hunt at bethel.

  i was just a little kid at the time, and didn't pay much attention.. i know ray's point of view, from what i've read on this board, and also ordered myself his book "crisis of conscience"(should be a good read).

  i think back now, i remember the event happening, and the speaker talking about it at our circuit assembly, but i don't recall the reasons (bs) he gave.

  I wonder about the elders that carried out the order from Brooklyn to kick him out.

  It would be interesting to see what they have to say TODAY.

  No warning about radio frequency radiation.. a danger with no age discrimination .

  WT seem more carefull before 'talking' about what they don't know (aluminum) or

  they may be reluctant to increse the number of enemies (mobile phone industry).

  What did the WT say about the prior, older 'danger', alphanumeric pagers?

  Integ,

  Does your story include the use of a "voice changer" or a long travel to work, lets say to another city?

  Or did you get training as a double agent for a counter intelligence agency or something?

  I was a consultant for a radio station many years ago and the station was purchased by BIG worldwide church. I had a panic attack and resigned within weeks, before they (jw) found out.

  That was one of my several resignations due to 'conflict of interest', i lost tons of $, but who knows i may get it ($) back from the wt bank account some day, somehow... today you hear about class action you never heard before.

  Taliking about class actions did you know that putting a "radio" (cel phone) on your ear is "dangerous to your health"? Lawyers are working on it.

  The world economy does not need another blow. That is ONE of the reasons why nothing has happened YET.

  But the cellualr industry (handset manufactures) has not done much to mitigate or reduce their exposure. Not much has been done on the ergonomic front to a least cry "it its safe" or "safer". Maybe those 'earplugspeakers'' will help them...

  Why am i talking about that on this thread anyway?

  R,

  What do I think? It is hard to believe, strictly from the technical point of view.

  Sunstorms are more likely to affect the analytical thinking ability of any one, including engineers, specially if they believe in miracles or esoteric stuff.

  A good excuse is always a convenience.

  This a delayed broadcast… I mean a week delayed re-reply.

  Glad to meet you, never before met a lady with that kind of technical inclination, going for the FCC first.

  To answer your question, I purchased sort of tutorial book, then took the exam in Miami.

  With all the input you get on this forum you can probably hold a talk show on social/spiritual issues allowing anonymous (chat/email) participation over the internet..

  I would set up an ‘station” over the internet then you would be the program director, deal?

  Breaking news! A mysterious implosion destroyed a wt building located at…

  They still haven’t come up with a user friendly ‘internet radio receiver’…, yes internet appliances are coming.

  memorable experience? well, not vocal experience but i did get a few electrical shocks, not to mention lighting damaging antennas.

  The 10 point resolution adopted at the 2003 District Conventions

  by crownboy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  as most of you probably already know, from time to time the watchtower society likes to use district conventions as a platform for adopting silly resolutions, which more than likely are forgotten by the people who gave their approval to it by the time they leave the parking lot of the convention.

  this year, during the final talk of the convention (talk entitled: "keep bearing much fruit to jehovah's glory"), a ten point resolution was adopted, with all the baby seal-like clapping following its adoption.

  here's the main jist of the ten points (i didn't copy it word for word):.
