I drank more as a witness than I do now knowing the truth about the truth.
Back in the 70's many of the JW's I knew were heavy drinkers.
this point was raised in another thread vaguely, and wanted to try and expand on it.. the wt has said (and rightly so in my opinion) "that excessive use of drugs and alcohol can ruin your life".
in my eyes this is a fact.. this is where it starts to get a little suspicious, as they also say (or subtly hint at) "that if you leave the wt you will becoming addicted to drugs and alcohol and will ruin your life".. its almost like a self fulfilling prophecy.
as there are a lot who leave the borg and they do start drinking heavy or smoking, or taking drugs...or whatever.. the wt capitalizes on the fact that people want more freedom, and they subtly ingrain the thought that.

when i was young we were taught to refer to other adult jws as aunt or uncle.. was this also the case in other countries and does it still happen?.
was it just a custom or has the literature ever commented on it?.
thanks.
oh, the possibilities!
there is a lot of wasted talent.
I did what I would have done Jw or not.
I was born a musician and I played music all my life.
If I was not a witness, I would have financed my music making by being a school
teacher not a deputy sheriff.
question: should able-bodied actors play characters with disabilities?.
i got myself into a bit of a quandary over a discussion on a facebook group.
it was partly based on this article in the guardian:.
Actors act.
Anybody can play anybody. Whites can play blacks, blacks can play whites.
After the show people judge how good the acting was
You are only as good as your last show.
this ain't your grandaddy's governing body!.
dubs have been saying this a lot lately in my area.
i haven't said this yet, but all i can think is, "yeah, i wonder if that's what xtians were thinking after the apostles died back in the day.
Your grand daddy did not have a governing body.
They just had a president back in the old days.
When I was a witness back in the 50's, 60's and 70's
Brother Knorr ran everything by himself.
I never heard of a governing body.

I think the pictures have to come from another site not your computer.
The pictures have to be on Facebook or some other location then you right click on them and copy them to this site and then paste.
I can not post a picture from my pictures on my computer to this site.
