Sweet 16 - Happy Birthday to Us !

by Simon in

it's the forum's 16th birthday today!.

amazing that not only have we lasted so long but we're still thriving and growing.. thanks to all the people and often colorful characters who've contributed to the site over the years.

some are still here with us, some have since moved on, but all have touched each others lives in some way along our different journeys.. .

Happy Birthday and thank you for all you do to keep JWN running1

My mother has nervous breakdown because we missed the memorial.

by cookiemaster in

my parents insisted that i'd take them to the memorial.

my cousin said he'd come too and another brother who doesn't have a car begged to join.

i was dreading having to go through exactly the same thing again.

Rejecting Jesus in the comfort of your own home is just not the same as rejecting Jesus with a couple hundred cult members.

I COLLECT QUOTES. . . Here are some of my favorites

please post your favorites too.

my favorite quotations:.

you cannot change what you refuse to confront.. sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.. don’t think of cost.

*** ts 46 Is This Life All There Is?
"Knowing these things, what will you do? It is obvious that the true God, who is himself the God of truth and who hates lies, will not look with favor on persons who cling to organizations that teach falsehood. (Psalm 31:5; Proverbs 6:16-19; Revelation 21:8) And, really, would you want to be even associated with a religion that had not been honest with you?"

Need confirmation: WT bought an entire mountain in China to mine the granite needed for new WT HQ

by WingCommander in

someone asked for a second source on this, so i'm putting this out there to those who may have visited the new wt hq lately and know it to be true.

i had read from others on the ex-jw subreddit that had taken a tour recently at wt hq, that they had been shown photos of a mountain in china, and told that this is where all of the granite is being mined from and shipped over to new york to use at the site of the new wt hq.

apparently, it was cheaper for them to do this and have the local brothers in china mine it, then having to by tons upon tons of granite here in the usa, even wholesale.

B.B. I wouldn't be surprised if the tour guide was making shit up or passing down rumors. I did it all the time when giving tours in Brooklyn.

Do tell about the best thing you made up.

If the WT joining the U.N. did not cause a mass exit by the R&F, this certainly won't cause much of an outrage at all.

Tempest in a teapot.

These are Bernie supporters waiting for their free stuff

On free stuff.

Free college tuition for all who put in the effort would help our economy in the long run. Education leads to better jobs for the middle class and that will lead to more tax revenue for the feds.

Since they are responsible for sending many blue collar jobs out of the country, I don't have a problem with making wall street pay the bill for this. It's a win win in the long run.

Or we can continue to drop "free" bombs on middle east countries that causes destabilization and in turn makes more terrorists against the USA.

Are we sure the WT organization paid for this award themselves? Could a JW member have put up the money and in the process the WT got punked themselves?
