well, guys, here it is.
it's going in the mail tomorrow.
it's for me but, dad, it's also for you.
Nice job! Very well written. They can't help but at least feel a twinge.
Super idea to cc the congregation. You have planted many seeds here today, if this helps but one person leave you will have done a great thing. May Apollos water well for you.

Thanks for posting this Randy.

Sigh.

since we're accused by some of being so negative about jehovah's witnesses, let's start a thread regarding some positive things about being a witness or believing in the organization.
Being a JW enabled me to become an EX-JW which means I get to participate in Minimus' threads on JWD.
hawk, .
would judge groff be interested in the watchtower's own admission that they aren't clergy?
the first quote is from the february 15, 1994 watchtower.
Nice research!!!!!!!!!!
according to the watchtower of dec. 15, 1985, jehovah and his son attend the meetings at the kingdom hall.
"how can you show gratitude for what jesus did" is the article that you should review.
this is what it states:"since jehovah and jesus are present invisibly at these gatherings, grateful christians will not snub them, as the apostates do, but rather do all they reasonably can to attend regularly.
I don't do windows nor toilets.
.
did you ever knock on a door, and realize that the person knew more about the bible than you did?
what was your worst experience in the field service?.
Getting bitten by a mean dog. Doctor, tetanus shot, my clueless mother dealing with owner about rabies, etc. I was only a little kid.
We were back "out in servitude" the next weekend.
i remember when floppys were 8 inches, then 514, now 312 - talk about deflation with age.
but at least my 312 lasts for 100 mb
Oh, this thread is about disks........
I'll probably kill it.....
i don't about you all but being raised a jehovah's witness was so ingrained in me that going to the memoral seems the right thing to do at this time of the year.
so i for one will do it for no other reason other than i was trained that way, and of course i like the song they sing its touching and i am a big sinner lord have mercey!

You'd be a lot better off attending a Good Friday service and then Easter morning. You actually, like, get to participate and understand the real meaning of Jesus' death and resurrection instead of the WTS version of "celebrating" Michael the archangel's demise.
I wouldn't set foot in a KH ever again. Brrr, the thought of it makes my skin crawl.
i stumbled upon this web site...it may bring back memories for those who spent time at bethel and it is very revealing to those of us who never visited or lived there.

"Click here to add our Theocratic Vacation Page to your favorites."
and
"We have also put together a web site of a couple of our non-theocratic vacations to Cozumel, Mexico.
If you would like read of our adventures there just click here. "
Do you think they'll get a shepherding call about taking non-theocratic vacations??
Pfffttt.
throughout the years after having come to know through your marriage to my daughter you have been a very kind and thoughtful person, sometimes more than my own son.
i don't think that a mother-in-law could want a finer person for a son than you.
however, it is very unfortunate that i will have to change the way that i will relate to you now and in the future.
But I will not be able to socialize with you nor eat with you again. Your co-operation in this will certainly be appreciated.
Aack! She wants your cooperation in this?
I want some of what she's smoking.
PFFFTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm so sorry. I'd keep the kids away from her too. They shouldn't learn that something like this is right or acceptable.
