do you find yourself, as i sometimes do, skimming through channels on the tv remote and not finding anything interesting to watch?.
growing up, we only had four channels on our tv (nbc, cbs, abc and pbs).
and yet there always seemed to be something of interest to see.. sadly, i often find myself watching shows where some guys are auctioning off storage lockers, killing alligators, picking junk from peoples' garages or barns, catching tuna, towing cars, driving trucks on the ice, catching crabs, running pawn shops ... etc etc etc.
British drama has been brilliant lately. I've enjoyed Summer of Rockets, Years and Years and Gentlemen Jack. Look out for them if they come over the pond.
I've got rid of cable and just have the actual free freeview, no top box nonsense. Very happy with freeview if any Brits want to know.

16 - “....to be saved at armageddon, we must show that we “know god” and that we “obey the good news about our lord jesus.” (2 thess.
1:7-9) we “know god” when we know his likes, dislikes, and standards.
So no personal growth from living a valuable, interesting life and learning what matters and what doesn't. What hurts and what makes us happy. How to get the best from relationships. The values of hard work, job satisfaction, stretching yourself to do better each year. The joy, the intellectual buzz of learning something new.
Just follow these rules boys and girls and wait for paradise. Don't forget to despise all the others who aren't following them as well as you.
the longer i am out, the the less i understand the logic of this organisation.. i thought that the kingdom hall my wife attends was perfectly fine and adequate, in fact i liked that it sat in grassy grounds, surrounded by trees.
it probably wasn't in any dire need of re-decorating at this point.
others, obviously, thought otherwise and so the hall has recently been subjected to a make-over.. the parking lot has been extended in true joni michell they've "paved paradise and put up a parking lot".
That sounds vile, chopping down the trees and pulling up the grass. Paving a car park they don't need but then the WTS don't really want beautiful KHs for the members do they? They want them ready to sell as plain office buildings or industrial sites. Paradise is for the bigwigs in Warwick with their landscaped gardens.

thanks..
made absolutely no sense to me, and no matter how much I would try to figure it out I couldn't, only to discover those things didn't make any sense because it was a total sham.
I was like that Tameria with things like the ransom, the seven times prophecy and why we celebrated wedding anniversaries but not birthdays. You end up feeling I must be stupid if everyone gets it but me.
In reality we were brighter than most, independent thinkers. That terrible thing! Hasn't it made you trust yourself now though? If something sounds like bullshit that's because it is.

Time to move the starting point. - stillin
Yeah stillin they're going to have to do that eventually once everyone who overlaps with the 1914 generation has died off.
The thing is from what newbies on here say, young adult born-ins and new converts now don't know anything about the generation teaching at all! Yet still they convert or get baptised! Following all those life-crippling rules with no end in sight. Why?!
