When it's your time to go...............
by Night Owl inif you believe "when it's your time to go, it's your time to go" then cause of death does not matter.
plane crash, school shooting, accident, war, or anything else.. if you have this mind set, then any event resulting in a human death is just fulfilling a pre-determined destiny for that human.. you also cannot pick and choose as to which event, or rather, death, is in the "when it's your time to go, it's your time to go" scheme of things or not.. nightowl.

Watchtower® and their education
by punkofnice inok. i'm a brit as some of you know.. what i noticed with the wbt$ is how they only seem to write from an american cultural standpoint.
not a bad thing if you're one of my cousins form the usa i admit........ but.... here in the uk there are some things that are meaningless to us.. eg hazing.
this was warned about in a study and over here we had no idea what it was and it kind of alienated the congregation from the study.

Most women are the primary financial supprters in the family! He probably has a wife working her ass off while he sits on his!

Two elders so sorry! Prior to leaving, did they shake their feet off!
If they didn't shake their feet they will be back. They were so rude to me and I didn't do anything! Just said I could not firlgure out Christianity timeline:Jesus up today! I guess that marked me.

I look at what they preached it was telling others that Jesus the Messiah was born, he deeds, resurrection, that he ascended. They acknowlege the Father and the son. Christians was coined by the politcal parties to mark them.

Hello Heavensgate,did you post your story? What is going on in your life with the JW?
Good to see you here.
Jon does your wife ever go to meetings without you? If she is not in the habit of going she will just find reason to not go.You have nothing to worry about.
Not too sure of your age but maybe she would like to try other churches? It is easier to go to another church when your young so you can have some good friends.
