I want to love people and do not agree the "CALL" ended in 1935.
Disagreement with the teachings of God's one true organization places you in a league with Satan the Devil.

Stop counting time
by Elsewhere inmost jws are guilted/coerced into going into the ministry by the time requirements.
i can't help but wonder how much time the average jw would spend in the ministry work if the time requirements were dropped.. i know that the only reason i went into field service was because i didnt want the elders coming and counseling me... that was until i figured out how to use theocratic warfare on my time sheet.
any thoughts on this?.

I wonder what sort of co-operation the Watchtower and the local
congregations gave to the researchers of these works?
More is require in research than merely reading the published
literature of the WT.I imagine they were only too happy to cooperate with any dissertation which congratulated them on their contributions to civil rights. Other than that I'm sure the usual WT suspicions and anti-intellectualisms would have inhibited cooperation.
How are you VM, email me sometime and let me know what's been going on with you over the last 20 years.

Given the level of energy and enthusiasm which most dubs exert whilst engaging in the "preaching work," perhaps inanimate objects would be more effective!

Bush is crazy, hes stupid, hes arrogant, hes hot-headed, stubborn, tactless, and above all, a bush. Just like his daddy before him, they are running the country to disaster. I cant wait until this bufoon is out of office. He shouldn't even be there in first place.
Sigh, if only we had a true leader like Washington, Lincoln, Roosevelt or Al Gore.

Favorite food at Assemblies
by finnrot ini hated growing up as a witness.
i hated the boring ass meetings where you could hear a pin drop on the floor, i hated going door to door and i hated not being normal like the other kids.. but the one thing i liked was going to the assemlies at the oakland coliseum.
i would wander around and find other kids to goof around with.

Rose Bowl, Pasadena, 1963.
The baked chicken was underdone and a little pink in the center. I was nine years old and I got sick from it and missed one day of the assembly. Fortunately it was an eight day assembly so I was able to eat my fill of the fine spiritual food on the other seven days.With the utmost respect, I must, if asked for my opinion, tell you that I regard your account as rubbish. -- John Maynard Keynes

President Bush
by Rado Vleugel inin the netherlands and many other european countries president bush of the united states of america is considered as a man with low intellectual capabilities and a narrow minded unilateral view on the rest of the world who uses one-liners in stead of founded argumentation.
but in the us he is seen by most americans as a wise and great statesman, a marvellous leader in difficult times.. i am interested how jws in congregations from different countries look at president bush although they usually dont openly have an opinion about politicians.
opinions from ex-jws are of course also welcome.. rado vleugel.

It has been my observation that many Europeans are puzzled by Americans. I believe this is because their opinions of us are formed by watching cowboy movies. This sort of mis-perception is a long-standing problem with Europeans. In the past century that noted European statesman and intellectual Adolf Hitler developed many of his opinions of Americans by reading the cowboy novels of Karl May.

JT,
This was fascinating! Amway really sounds like some cult!
My only knowledge of Amway had been that JW's had tried to get me to join several times.With the utmost respect, I must, if asked for my opinion, tell you that I regard your account as rubbish. -- John Maynard Keynes
