Confused,
I just read. Credit is yours
exodus 9 then the lord said to moses, go to pharaoh and say to him, this is what the lord, the god of the hebrews, says: let my people go, so that they may worship me.
2if you refuse to let them go and continue to hold them back, 3the hand of the lord will bring a terrible plague on your livestock in the fieldon your horses, donkeys and camels and on your cattle, sheep and goats.
4but the lord will make a distinction between the livestock of israel and that of egypt, so that no animal belonging to the israelites will die.?.

Evidently, the egyptians stole some of the cattle from the Jews in between plagues. Your "catch' evidently shows that you are spritually weak.
Village girl,
We are having fun. What's wrong with that. Have some self deprecating humor. We all look stupid at some point or another. Religion have more than fair share though. Science rarely looks stupid because it never claims to have any absolute truth. Religious people do. In fact, the Bible looks quite stupid when you think of it as infallible or the word of God, but it is a great book to study as a piece of history.
hey i joined this thread recently and thought this was a good way to introduce myself.
i am 15, still going to school and i live in the uk.
a good chunk of my mum's side of the family are jws.
I am afraid you are an apostate now. Now God will curse you for the rest of your life with freedom and plenty of opportunities to make yourself and others truly happy an fulfilled. As a JW you either pretend to be, or are delusionally happy. Congratulations on your decision to come to the Dark Side. By the way, you are very smart for a 15 y.o.
nothing new to report... this memorial was not the last one (sigh) :(.
on top of that, the assistance for my hall was the same as last year.
i don't see how they will break the 20 million mark.. also, with the current trend the brothers who partake publicly will most likely pass the 14,000.. how was the memorial in your part of the world?.
Too soon. You have to wait another 12 lunar months minus a day to say we are free of the curse of the FDS
when i worked for a book store i became familiar with beka text books for home school.. i spoke with the mothers who came looking for them.
i realized something didn't smell right.. then, i realized there are a couple of generations of fundamentalist kids who have had no exposure.
to the scientific method, science facts or any conversancy with physics or biology or history as a result of beka textbooks.. in a nutshell here is the situation:.
C'mon Shadow, you are learning from the WT when it comes to sources. Get better sources. You may have good numbers to support your point, but you have to get better with your sources
to hawaii!!
what were you thinking?.
ive been to the big island twice when i was a 11 and 13. my sister lived there and flew me out.
I will be there in july of this year (Maui and Big island) with my JW wife and children. Last year we were in Alaska, the year before Mexican Riviera, year before Cancun, year before Cabo San Lucas and plenty of short vacations in between, in the western U.S. Tough!!! Don't you think
They have a great point (Jw's) when they say the signs of the end of the world are quite obvious. Yeah, any of those vacations is costing me an average of 8,000.00. That's got to be one of the signs of the end coming. In paradise we will not have to spend that kind of many. I hope God gets me my free vacations soon.
new donation arrangement (tithe) asked my elder about it he hung up on me.

if this memorial may be our last one, why worry about the long run with expensive real estate? Holy shit, the end of the world starts tomorrow!!
interesting comment box from a 2012 wt mag...found this when looking for something else.

sure, "they realize that when a child becomes an adult, he or she will make a personal choice with regard to worship" but if their decision is to not be a jw, they are cut off from their family.. talk about deception, these guys are masterful... .

from this week's book study, the "draw close to jehovah" book, chapter 5:.
biologists have identified well over a million species of living things on earth; yet, opinions vary as to whether there may be as many as 10 million, 30 million, or more.. .
wow!
i missed it too
