NEVER MEET ALONE WITH A SISTER!!!
by minimus indo you know why the society says this?
regardless of whether the meeting is for the purpose of shepherding, sharing bible advice,or simply giving encouragement, "she could develop romantic feelings for the elder.it is possible for an elder to develop improper feelings for a sister he is comforting or counseling.
it is especially important never to meet with a sister alone when the sister being assisted has been a victim of abuse, suffers from depression,or for any other reason is in a delicate emotional state.a woman in such an emotional may be more vulnerable and may be prone to develop improper feelings toward an elder meeting with her.

We had an elder back in the 70's that ran off with a 13 year old girl he knocked up, thus leaving his wife and children behind. Of course today his ass would in a real sling legal wise, but I guess he forgot about this little piece of not calling on sisters alone.

WERE YOU AFRAID OF THE ELDERS?
by minimus inlately, i see a trend going on regarding how congregation members view the elders.
more and more, i hear people say "i wouldn't tell anything to the elders if they questioned me.years ago all an elder had to say is "we want to talk with you" and a meeting commenced.
now, there is a view that the elders can't tell me what to do anymore.

I think the last decent president in this country was Reagan
If he was president in 1990 and 1991 we wouldn't have this discussion because Saddam would have been pushing up daisy's a long, long time ago

There are good arguments for getting rid of that regime over there, even if it's not the most politically correct thing to do as far as the rest of the world is concerned, but he has to be careful not to screw it all up. Who knows, it will be interesting if he actually does it or not.
Anymore I'm just sick of hearing about it.

Why Is Smoking A Disfellowshipping Offense?
by twain30 inthe main reason given in the 1973 watchtower was that smoking is tied in with spiritism because the greek word which is rendered as spiritism is pharmakia' which literally means "druggery," (see galatians 5:20.
) therefore the argument was made that by smoking we put ourselves under spiritistic or demonic control.
for the last 20 years i haven't heard this reason used.. today the reasons given are that smoking shows no respect for your body as well as for life and that smoking doesn't show love of neighbor.

Plus it's a known fact amongst doctors that children of smokers have more ear infections, are sick more frequently and develop more breathing problems such as asthma, than children with non-smoking parents.
Which is why I NEVER smoke in the house
Also as one that does smoke and has smoked for longer then I care to admit I do think it is a responsibilty of those who smoke to be considerate of those around them if they are out someplace, however the Watchtower views in my opinion are stupid and groundless. It's bad for you, well no kidding so is almost everything in the world if you listen to all the so called experts.

Sent my DA letters out
by Cicatrix infinally got up the nerve to send my da letters out yesterday.i sent them in lovely scarlet envelopes(in homage to nathaniel hawthorne's "the scarlet letter")with american flag stamps hehe.i wrote the letters on my hound dog stationary.thought it was fitting, having heard the old "dog returning to its vomit" speech a few gazillion times(hey, my lab and dal eat lots of vomit and they love horse manure-vet says they're the healthiest doggies around:)).. then i went out and bought a little christmas tree and some teeny tiny ornaments.yeah, i know, i'm rushing it a bit.but i really really missed celebrating christmas, and i didn't even admit that to myself until just recently.my kids were absolutely thrilled!
!this year will be their first everything.i'm going to buy them all "my first christmas" ornaments.. but first we have halloween and a few birthdays to do.my sons already got their first invitations to a birthday party.
my kids want me to go trick-or-treating with them.maybe i'll dress up as cruella deville and take my dalmatian puppy,sidhe, with me.. my,my, i'm running on and on like a kid at christmas...and halloween...and ..... it's good to be free.i don't care what the org boogeymen try now.i've said my piece to them,now i'm done with them.i don't have to sneak around and worry about whose seeing me do this or that.i'm the one who has chosen to leave-and you bet your boots i will hold certain ones to their own rules about not speaking to me lol.in this case, what comes around, goes around.i'm just glad to be off the org carousel.i'm a little dizzy yet, but still standing.. hehe-i'm getting punchy.i'm going to go to bed and sleep in on a sunday morning!!!

H2O Anon Post: Bill Bowen Threatened
by Derrick ini'm worried sick at the thought that bill bowen is in danger, and sincerely hope those near him will provide his family with protection.
if the following article on h2o by an anonymous poster bears any truth, then i recommend to bill that he asks the local police for 24 hour home protection (i.e., squad car drive-bys and surveillance).. http://www.aimoo.com/forum/postview.cfm?id=311102&categoryid=2967&startcat=1&threadid=238963.

Gee.. Merry Christmas to me.. LOL
Mark your calendar or Palm V. You can expect to die on:
December 25, 2042
at the age of 72 years old.
On that date you will most likely die from:
Interesting stats from the DeathTest:12680327 people have taken the DeathTest. Of those, 55% were female and 45% were male. The average life expectancy of test takers is 67 years. 10% of test takers have hairy nipples. 4% have had team sex. 8% work in the porn business. And 234291 people claim to have leprosy.
Disclaimer: We, despite being proficient with the human anatomy, are not doctors. Keep that in mind before calling your lawyer as you're clutching your left arm moaning "Damn you, Spark, Damn YOU!" on December 25, 2042, as you slip silently into the night.
