i'm in japan for three weeks visiting my sister-in-law and brother.
the people are so polite and i came across two female jw using the cart.
it is the same experience i noticed back in the states.
Those carts are so awkward and silly! I'm sure they're just as an easy way to get "time" as no real interaction or Bible knowledge is required--just babysit the cart and direct any questions to the website.
Embarrassing these people think they're Christian or even doing anything remotely close to a community service!
since i have left almost 4 years ago.
i have become a green belt in karate classes.
have got permits to own guns and go hunting.
Good for you! And for your wife too! I wish my husband would totally get out with me. Life could be so lovely, and it still is, so long as we're not plagued by any of the hang ups at the KH.
So...you have a boat? Sounds like a lot of fun! Nothing better than a day on the water.
the congregation i attend had it's watchtower study on thursday night because of l.d.c work this week-end, and another congregation i have some not very spiritual friends in had their watchtower study on wednesday.
from what i have delicately prised out of people, the congregations loved the watchtower study this week, saying it was so encouraging and all the usual stuff, with no-one seeming to realise the g.b.
said they're not inspired, so the spirit int he past has moved them to teach wrong things, and all the other ideas excellently summed up on reddit.. today's watchtower will wash over the heads of most j.w's like it never even happened, the all remaining as loyal as ever, and it makes me so, so sad..
Joy of joys. I can't wait to sit through another mind-numbing brain-wash session full of double meanings and CYA tactics from the self-righteous seven. At least stifling my gag reflexes will keep me somewhat busy. :-P
caws for concern!
malone.
(a vagrant escapee from a butterfly net and he's on starbucks' patio jabbering non-stop at me!).
following the news of stuckinarut2, over the past few months my wife has completely mentally woken up.
i've been meaning to post but haven't had the time.
i saw stuckins post and i figured i'd add my news too.
let's face it, we're all connected now.
we take it for granted that we access our bank accounts from our laptops or phones.
it's so convenient.
Simon, this is amazing advice. I'm digging the fob.
so our daughter gave my wife and i a very nice family album of photos from the course of the year.
as we opened it, she said it had a surprise hidden in it, so we're watching for something to fall out.
about 2/3 or the way through it we hit an ultrasound print of a tiny baby.
Wow! That is awesome! Congratulations JeffT!
because i feel some people have become confused in thinking that i am promoting religion or thinking that being jewish is some type of special gift that makes me better, i am writing to tell you that i don’t feel this way.
think of this as your christmas gift (or chanukah or festivus or whatever).. despite the fact that i too practice a religion, i also think atheism is a purposeful and noble use of the mind.
too often people with a religion have only bad things to say about atheism and atheists.
Viviane, I don't know what Pol-Pot is. You have the wrong user.

Don't tell me my business Viviane. I can type whatever I want.
Just because I don't agree with someone on one topic doesn't mean I'm going to hold it against them eternally or disagree with them on other topics.
Anyway, enjoy your day trolling.
