So you're a not very rapturous rapture believer.
You're gonna get whisked to heaven, but with a sad face.
That's pretty much one of the stupidest things I've read on this site.
since the majority would be "left behind", i wonder.
clearly the hard workers who neglected "spiritual things" to persue a career in the science field or just working with the hands will be of the many left.
what would this world be like if all fundies just dissappeared.

an elder came around this morning at 9am to ask if my husband wanted to come with him on a bible study.
my husband nipped from the bathroom to the bedroom in his undies to get dressed, while i talked to the elder!
the elder talked about how he just happened to think my husband might be free this morning, and just happened to get a call from someone wanting a bible study, and then he said to me, "why don't you come visit my house some time?
Sounds like you need to take out a restraining order.

>> ... this reminds me of why sometimes its not to encouraging to comw here.
You'll have last laugh ravens when your rapture 'comw' - so don't get too indignant.

Winston Payne: funniest name ever! ;)
i am feeling very naughty and am looking for dares to carry out tomorrow.. .
any suggestions?.
uun .
Why? I'd rather stick a pencil in my eye.
for example, they pride themselves in what they don't believe such as immortal souls, the trinity, hellfire, etc.. some exjws still believe it is the "truth" and support the basics.. .
Not a single thing. It is all horseshit.
It's funny coz I don't know him.
quick back-story: i'm pretty young...old enough to go to war but too young to buy a beer (if i were in the states..maybe i am maybe i'm not...) compredo?
so i've had allot of doubts, but figured it was a fault in myself until my best friend left a year ago and has since been labeled apostate.
i've never shunned him, in fact, i still see him a few times a month in secret.
Noonehome: you write clearly and you express your feelings and thoughts with clarity. You are obviously an intelligent young person.
You would do well at university. Do not squander your abilities. Get a tertiary education. It will be difficult and challenging and the best thing that you have ever done.
was pondering today on the jws stance on the existance of the dinosaurs.
would be interested to know any belieavers stance on this eg.
your own belief and that of the wts current understanding.. insidentally i tried to search this on jw.org and no search bar, or at least i didn't find one ????.
Good stuff Phizzy.
I never realised that catch-22 situation before. They can't have it both ways.
i've read a few people mention making up the figures for the field service reports, and i want to find out how common it is.
i never lied on my report.
sometimes i'd round up 15 minutes if i'd mentioned jw stuff to my brother that month, but that wasn't falsifying.
The last year that I pioneered I did not once actually put in the required 90 hours. I used to go and meet the group then my then wife and I would go off to do rvs. Which meant going to a coffee shop or shopping or whatever. Sometimes I would go fishing. I always wrote own 90+ hrs though!
What a fool I was to waste so many of the best years of my life on something so utterly devoid of meaning or worth.
