Got the contract
by LouBelle innow i just have to sign on the dotted line and drop it off and i shall once again be in the permanent job field.
i won't be earning a huge amount by any means but it is enough to cover my bills and to save a little bit.
this does give me that relief of finances coming in, of course i'll be keeping my ears and eyes open for better opportunities, but that being said i shall embrace this new opportunity with open arms and eagerness.. it's been a hellofa tough year people - hellofa tough.

As a witness, I never remotely considered that I was shielded by God from unforeseen events. Nor did I - for that matter - put my life unnecessarily in danger to preach. It might be a question of locality: belief in supernatural protection varies from one point of the earth to another.
I do know that in the publications, Jesus was repeatedly given as an example of not "tempting" God when he refused to jump to his death during Satan's temptation.
All said, this was a terrible - and probably avoidable - tragedy.

And you really believe treating this with levity is right!
Even if you believe those poor fellows were misguided by your standards, did they deserve to be kidnapped and some beheaded?
To what extent would some push their callousness, even in the face of such tragic events?

Looking After Widows and Orphans... and Spending One's "Riches"
by AGuest into the household of god, israel, and those who go with... may you all have peace!.
from time to time the issue of how to fulfill the "form of worship that is acceptable to god," mentioned by james in his letter, namely, looking after widows and orphans "in their tribulation"... comes up.
given the issue of tithing, the plethora of institutionalized charity choices, and the existence of ones in need, perhaps in our own households and families... but certainly in our towns, countries... and around the world... how does one fulfill this requirement?

Shelby,
I commend you for all the hard work in here; it's a most daunting task. Please keep on posting. You may well be one of the very few reasons some people keep reading this board, notwithstanding its having been practically hijacked by intolerant atheists (not to paint all atheists the same way).
I see your posts as a ray of light in an increasingly dark place.

JW Interracial Couples
by Iamallcool ini was thinking about some interracial jw couples that chose each other because they do not have alot of choices like finding someone in their own race in the religion, i have been seeing alot more jw interracial couples lately.
have you noticed them in your area?
don't get me wrong.

There is no such thing as "inter-racial" marriage, except if/where a human being marries a non-human!
If you are not married to an extra-terrestrial or a four-legged creature or a fish or a bird or a fly or an object, you cannot claim to have an inter-racial marriage.
That is quite simple to work out.

I really thought i was going to live forever
by Aussie Oz inrandom discussion today ended up in my wife mentioning when she saw halley's comet (1986?
) and all of a sudden i had a total recall moment!.
when it came by, rather than make the effort to watch it, i flippantly said "nah, i'll see it next time!".

Is Your Life In Ruins Because You Were A Jehovah's Witness?
by minimus inare you moving on?.
i see some have a very hard time in life because of their witness past..

Not really. Being a Witness was/is not as bad as it is sometimes made out to be. Many things are/could be far worse.
Never suffered the non-college education thing and received all the support from my parents who saw excelling in school as the only way to escape the poverty trap.
I know it must have been different for many (going by experiences here narrated). But it is usually unfair to use one brush to tar all.
