Prisca,
You may be right and then again maybe not.
Anyway, I did want to point out that I made a post on this thread last night before I went to bed then once again this morning before going to work all day long in the sunshine I might add, and now here it is again just before bed time and I'm posting again.Hardly excessive if you ask me.
So I hope that sunshine comment wasn't directed at me.
Jem, can take up for himself.

Wow!
Why has this thread died?
Hmmmm?
Ranchette
can someone here tell me what the current policy is in jw conventions in terms of inviting the public.
is the public invited only for the special talk on sunday or can they come in at any time?
if a memeber of the public does come into the assembly hall, are they escorted or kept under surveillance the entire time or just a short while?
I used to get cracked up at the brothers they would choose for security at the assemblies.
It was part of my entertainment to look at the ones sitting by the stairs at both sides of the stage and wonder just what they think they could do in an emergency situation.
Throw a Bible?
Use their body as a shield?
Start praying?
Scream and run?
You shoulda seen some of these guys!
They were usually wimpy little guys or overweight.
I sure didn't feel any more secure.

ginny t, ginny's son, my daughter, me...just finished over-eating, as is the tradition in this country.
we're enjoying a glass of chardonnay, sitting in front of a fireplace, plunking tunes on a grand piano, and looking out at puget sound.
ginny says it reminds her of the west coast of norway.
Wasa,
I'm glad you are having a wonderful Thanksgiving!
I had to take a two hour nap after our feast!
Please tell Ginny hello for me and I hope you enjoy the rest of your visit.

Jem,
Thanks for sharing.
I'm sure we will hear of more of this type of thing from WT trying to intimidate people from using WT literature to expose them for what they really are.
I don't believe they will ever get control of the internet situation.
"The genie is out of the bottle!"
I'm interested in your thoughts on something off topic.
Since it sounds like you work at London Bethel and you also frequent this board you must be familiar with what both sides are saying on the UN issue and have also seen the evidence provided so far.
I'm courious about what you feel about Brooklyn Bethel's official explanation on the matter?
Also,what do you think about them demanding that your branch along with all others around the world use this explanation?
Surely this must disturb you a great deal to see that they are not telling the truth?
Thanks for your thoughts.

hi folks;.
do you remember who said these wise words?.
a woman is nothing more than "a hank of hair and a bag of bones.
Kent,
If I didn't know you were teasing,I'd throw something at you!
If I had to work from before daylight to dark and also had to do without all those modern conviences you mention I wouldn't be so nice and I surely wouldn't have much energy left to spoil my man.

i've been told the glass moves around spelling stuff out.
my brother, before he became a dumbdub said it happened to him - but he was pretty young and probably p'd.
movies and tv play along with it.
Joseph,
This is a very interesting explanation but if this is true does this mean that my subconscious mind was empty when we were playing with the board?

I guess you could say I'm agnostic.
I tried the ouji board once recently with two other people.
Absolutly nothing happened.
Never have experienced anything and don't believe it ever will.I know others have had some sort of experiences but I just believe the mind is a very powerful thing.
I also mirror Seekers feelings on the matter.
I've done just about everything the society says will bring the demons into your life and the silence is deafening.

We also played with the runes and enjoyed them very much.So much in fact that I just bought a set with a book also.
I will be keeping mine.

i intend to make a post soon that will show a very unpopular viewpoint.
mostly because it will contain news you won't want to hear.. i'm predicting that regardless of the recent down turns in jw growth, this will change in the next few years and their world wide growth will increase.
i'm working on presenting the evidence now in a way it can easily be understood.. stay tuned.. skipper
Well your predictions or phrophecies probably have a a better chance of coming true than Watchtowers!
Also for those of us who have been around JW history for 30 or more years have seen this happen before.
Yes,sadly, it's unpopular but possible.
Ranchette
dear brothers,.
you might want to consider this letter in the 'questions from readers' section of the watchtower.. my question is this: i would like to join the catholic church and at the same time keep my standing and position in the congregation!
the reason being is that i have heard that the vatican has a very good and complete library which i would like to avail myself of.
Outa service,
Thanks for the entertainment this evening.
If this letter were sent for real I'm afraid you will see their double standard very clearly.
Ranchette
