I'm no expert however, since your friend has always supported you from a distance, I would ask her the question; what has changed? Then you can take things from there.

The UK WTS companies' accounts documents for 2015 are currently available to download and here's information plus links

the uk wts companies' documents for 2015 are currently free to download from the uk government's companies house website.

the person who sent me this information said that it appears they are testing a new form of the website, so access to documents may in the future revert to a pay per file system.

therefore, he advises getting copies of documents as soon as possible, as he doesn’t know when the testing phase will finish.

Thanks for posting this information, Barbara.

Why are the atheists on this site so hateful?

by HopeEverLasting in

all us creationists try to do is offer true evidence that the one and only god is out there watching and looking down on us.

we present that certain scientists know the truth about god and that he is everything that we see from trees, life, weather, the air we breath, and even the most simple molecules.

but of course you atheists reject it because it is your nature to not be humble and see god because you want to rule your own life.

I've been following this discussion thread from the outset. So here's a possible solution;

Why not agree to disagree and move on !

Who loves bikes?

by JRK in

what was the most fun ride you've ever had?.

my personal favorite was my ducati paso 750. it may have been before a few of your times, but it was an italian rocket that totally blew away anything from japan.. .

jk.

Our only mode of transport that my GF (now wife) and I had at the time was my Kawasaki KZ550. Some nosey sister ratted us out to the elders because we rode the bike. So we decided that we weren't going to sit back and take this BS and went to an elder to defend our case. Looking back, it was ridiculous as we did nothing wrong. Anyway I digress. So we met with this elder, who in our estimate was one of the more reasonable one's. During the conversation I managed to sum-up a bit of backbone and asked the elder; Where do we put the chaperone? - the handlebars, fuel tank or the tail light? He looked at me with a stone face for a moment (believe me, I was 'bricking it' as I thought I went a bit too far - my GF looked at me aghast) then to his credit, the elder burst out laughing. Phew! He then said that if anyone else complains about us riding the bike we should come straight to him.

We never heard a thing more about it.. Ha ha.

I used to ride a motorcycle many years ago - back in the early 80's.

I had a Kawasaki KZ550. That bike was a beast. A brother in another congo had a business servicing, repairing and selling bikes. I always had my bike serviced at his business. The one time he put 'racing' sparkplugs in my bike - scary as hell.

Good times. I miss them.

PS; When I accelerated the bike, my GF / now my wife, squeezed tighter - 'evil grin'.

Any regrets whilst you were in the Org

by Tallon in

the biggest regret i have is of 'shunning' persons who were disfellowshipped and for 'marking' ones deemed as bad association.. there's no way i can approach these people to ask them for forgiveness as i've emigrated to another country however, by this post i'd like it to be known..

Tallon

Thanks for commenting, folks.

I share a number of your regrets however, as Landy mentioned, it's the wasted years. Unfortunately there's no way of getting them back - water under the bridge now.
