if i was on the committee to choose colors, i will definitely turn down that really ugly color!.
People should get a life! I've seen the green bible criticized, the deluxe too. Oh, the black bible some never liked, and others wanted a splash of red. But red, is that burgundy you mean?
You WT Slaves, go serve yourselves a glass of scotch! Life has more to it than the colour of bibles or whatever.

i am sure nowhere is perfect but if we want to compare these two countries from different prospectives like racism, job, income/spending, quality of life, standard of living etc.
can you please give me a rough idea by sharing your experiences.. .
by the way, i am considering applying for a masters progrmme in any of the two countries.. .
No point bothering about an answer to HE. He hardly ever engages - only throws out a question. He's better off where he is - Nigeria, probably...
ireally do miss reading them.
lt wa such a great way to stay on top ofwhat's going on with the borg without allowing the mind games to penetrate.
blondie,did you stop bc of that dumb attack by prime a few months back?
She's bound to drop it at some point. In my view, it really isn't worth the time she puts in - except it is some form of therapy.

Laughable.
i notice she hasn't posted for about a month.
she was struggling quite a bit and feeling depressed.
has anyone heard from her or have contact info so you can check on her?.
LouBelle,
No point wasting your time on Barrold! This thread was about concerns over how you are doing. People did miss you. Could you tell us how your new job is coming on? And how you are, generally speaking?

at a convention recently, i met with don wallace, a former co and do.
he told me he came off the road 6 years ago and is living in scottsboro al.
him and his wife are in their late 70's.
C'me on! Give the man a break! If he complained that he could only now live off bread and water, many here would be gloating at his stupidity. Now that he says he was "smart" to plan for his latter days, many here are mad that he did such an awful thing as think ahead.
Some people are never happy, whichever way the dice rolls.

from radio biola to a sister who said you can treat autism and ptsd with scented oils, jws have had some weird some weird ideas about medicine.
what gems have you heard?.
Have the bible close by.
Frightened? Call loud the name Jehovah three times.
Read Psalm 23 out loud.
Go pioneering every month.
Drink molasses.
many of us were members of the theocratic ministry school for many years.
some say it helped them with public speaking, and maybe it did for some.. but, when you look back at the quality of student it turned out, was it really any good ?.
most elders are crap public speakers, most r&f bros are crap at reading aloud, most jw's are crap at selling their religion at the door, most jw's have scant real knowledge of the bible.. there are reasons for this, quite often the tms overeer hasn't a clue how to teach a person to progress.
Schools work that way, anyway. Some turn out bright pupils, some don't. Some teachers are awful, some are genuises. Problem with the TMS was, you never could "graduate"!
It helped me in public speaking and honed my ability to respond unfazed at questions thrown at random. Have not failed one job interview; and if I wanted to, I could spin a yarn.
OK, maybe I have some natural abilities that I could have developed without the TMS. But the TMS was a good thing to have.

verily, thus saith the creator of all things of life and light which are good.
behold the time of tribulation draweth near and is soon at hand; i am in the sun, and the light of the sun and it shall soon darken in the day you perceive not.. .
let this be a sign unto the world that tribulation cometh quickly, the day which darkens soon cometh upon the world.
Doesn't take much to predict Isreal's reaction to an attack from Syria, America's support to Isreal, Iran's joining the brawl, the fratricide between Sunnis and Shiites exploding in the Middle East.

no more assemblies or conventions.... no more service meetings, book studies, bible studies..... no more bethelites, gilead graduates, no more missionary work.. no more watchtower studies, field service, pioneers, elders, ministerial servants.. no more 'serving where the need is great.'.
its over, its over.. the watchtower has decided to end it all, suspend the organization work.
no more money.
Absolute nonsense, is what you have written.
