  I bought a 1949 Lionel O scale from the guy who got it for his birthday in 1949. When I bought it he said if I want to sell it back let him know.

  aren't they tiring out from saying this now?.

  a jobo pimi-lite i know has a terminal illness (no names, no pack drill), was told, 'hold on, the end is so close.

  the pimi-lite said they will need to hold on to their 'go bags(tm), then!.

  It gets me that it was soo close since the cult started. It was started on the idea that the end was a few years away back in the 19th century. I was a born in but had always felt that they had their feet to the fire with the this gen will not pass away BS. In 95 when they did the scam of changing the meaning of the word generation I was out. Done with this BS I remember telling my wife. Its been a long road to recovery but its worth it.

  A new evolutionary link

  by Half banana in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  that heroic labeller of living things, the 18th century swede carl linnaeus, painstakingly grouped into discrete categories everything which grew breathed or moved.

  his meticulous ranking of “kinds” made the scientific examination of the living world a whole lot easier.

  his legacy is greatly valued and his system is still universally used today.. however as time has unfurled, a problem arose in the observation that nature does not always agree with the human desire for rigid boundaries -- of what makes a family, genus or species.

  Alexander came out to vote no on new witnesses. Looks like it will end today or Monday in acquittal.

  Ever notice this about X JWs

  by JimmyYoung in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  its not just x jws but religious people in general.

  they feel free to post this crap on the internet about jesus is lord share this post, or some drivel but then if you post any thing that questions it you get jumped on like someone saying the earth is a globe at a flat earth convention.

  they can say what ever they want but don't dare question it.

  I got shunned today

  by Anna Marina in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i went into town today and saw an elderly publisher from my ex-congregation.

  because she was a gentle soul, i went up to her and said, 'hello'.

  she looked at me and said, 'i'm sorry i cannot talk to you.

  Almost every one I ever knew as a JW when I was in the cult would give a pass to their own kids and cover for them while making others a scapegoat or pointing a finger at them. I saw an elder who went to bat against other elders who were DFing his daughter for having an orgy, not making it up, and they finally told him to back off or they would report him. Its do as we say not as we do.

  Will God resurrect our beloved pets? What do you think?

  by Pallbearer in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the watchtower doesn't hold out any hope for us ever seeing our beloved animals again.

  i find it very difficult to believe that god -- a god of love -- would refuse to resurrect an animal that we had become so attached to.

  over the years i have bonded with no less than four (4) dogs, all of which were/are like family to me.

  This is a bit of a misleading thing. Most magazines are on this list because people actually order them. The JWs take them on mass and hand them out and most people toss them away thinking they will only take one to shut the dumb ass up. Or they are left in a door where they get tossed out with the lawn maintenance add. Dummbers will leave them at dentists and drs offices and the like. This is a joke of a stat. It may be the most printed but its not really the top magazine in reality.

  Things we should not have said,

  by Phizzy in

  2. humour

  do any of you remember things you should never have said to a fellow j.w ?.

  two of mine come to mind, one was when we were out in field circus one day and my companion was complaining of knee pain, he explained, " it has a crack in it ", i replied " that explains why my bum hurts, that's got a crack in it", the other one was when a guy showed me a chef's knife he had bought for chopping, and i said " i always wanted a big chopper ".. you ?.

  When I was 18yo we went out to dinner with the CO. It was at a Chinese buffet and I made the comment that I was going to have to be talked to about beastiality when I meant to say obesity. I caught it just after saying it and the CO said we will defiantly have to have a talk. I said I meant obesity.
