i was told by several elders to not get a dog when i was looking for one in the 80s.
the end was close and we needed to focus on the preaching work.
i know some have pets but a lot don't.
L.H.G. 'What about suggestions to people years ago that they shouldn’t have kids..and to wait for ‘the New System’?
- Responsible child bearing in this time of the end - 1987 District Convention script talk. Boy was that a shot in the demographic foot.

i`m sure you have all noticed the ever increasing number of newbies and lurkers who have visited this site over the past months and i am sure we could all collectively welcome them to this site and support them on learning the ttatt .
and helping them to navigate how they can look up older publications and quotes of the wtb&ts that they would rather remain hidden.. we all know jehovah`s witnesses /governing body never apologizes for mistakes they make they just don`t mention them anymore and explain it away as new light from god.. actually a big cop out.. welcome to all you who are new to this site .. every day their seems to be someone new posting which is great .. and if this is any indication of what is happening in all other ex jw sites the wtb&ts are in deep trouble .
.
Welcome Saxon, please share this site with any other escapees that you know.

Unconditional love, devotion, company and protection that you get from an intelligent dog puts conditional friendship of many dubs to shame.
Oh, and as a side point if you want to measure the wife against the dog as to who loves you the most, lock them both in the garage when you go to work and see who is happiest to see you when you get home.

i had to submit to a random work place drugs test yesterday, of which i passed.
in this country smoking marijuana / methamphetamine is illegal.
the thing that really struck me was that despite the illegal nature of it, was just how prevalent and problem is.
Joe, A Queensland University did a big research project into drug use from sewer water analysis, should be able to find it on the net.

businessman felt harassed by jws, so he found that word marks "der wachtturm" and "erwachet!
" (german versions of "the watchtower" and "awake!
I just did the same for another European country 😀
You would think by now they would have plugged the leaks by making sure the names were registered everywhere.

good move or bad?
?.
The real problem is not Iran or Iranian people, I've found them generally to be friendly and very hospitable.The real problem is islam, if the people could have this curse lifted from them Iran could prosper (as long as it did not sell oil outside the petrodollar arrangement).

Wow, thanks for that BC, all downloaded and burned to a CD so I can listen as I drive. To others that might want to download the MP3 files rather than stream from this site, you can use a program like 4k video downloader just as you would for youtube videos.

This website appears to host an unsecured PDF version of Crisis from 2004, which is a Ray Franz-sanctioned version:
Thanks for that BC, is there anywhere that I can get a PDF copy of this, In Australia now we cant buy from Amazon US, we have to buy from the Aus. store and the Aus. store does not list C.O.C.

i feel that assad even though he is bad is a better alternative then islamic extremist taking power.

the humanist organisation in the uk wants to protect non-religious people who leave their church/religion from being punished for doing so.
they want the religious hate crime legislation in the uk to be extended to people who are not religious.
i hope they will succeed.
The Humanist organisation in the UK wants to protect non-religious people who leave their church/religion from being punished for doing so.Holy shirt. They want to outlaw Islam?
That is the head shot that they really need to take before it is too late.
