Is your professor going to talk about why the JWs are losing their members as well?
That would be very interesting.
okay, i was sitting there just learning (this is my first college course toward my b.a.
), and all of the sudden the professor asks, "is anyone here a jehovahs witness?
" (this is a required religion course).

it not nice to talk about the death of someone, but realisticly ray franz will die sometime.what will happen to the books he's written will anyone take over the publishing?.
also do you think the society will use his death as a opportunity to attack his claims , when he can no longer defend them?
What happens when all the members of the current "anointed" Governing Body, the "faithful and discreet slave" dies ?
I'm sure there will be plenty of younger generation of the "anointed".
however there are very few other kids around who know anything about it, he would like to know more about the rules, general info, can anyone suggest anything, a website perhaps.

Some of my piano students are in a local little league. They learn rules, practice and play games with other teams. They start as young as 5-year old! Nowadays they are into soccer games, and I'm trying to keep them in deligent piano lessons. Poor kids! They are so busy.
how's the weekend goin'?
been too busy to think on really serious things?
that's good, because this poll doesn't require too much thinking!!
#1, 2, 7 & 10. I also didn't like, in fact hated the word, "service". Yuck!
finally got up the nerve to send my da letters out yesterday.i sent them in lovely scarlet envelopes(in homage to nathaniel hawthorne's "the scarlet letter")with american flag stamps hehe.i wrote the letters on my hound dog stationary.thought it was fitting, having heard the old "dog returning to its vomit" speech a few gazillion times(hey, my lab and dal eat lots of vomit and they love horse manure-vet says they're the healthiest doggies around:)).. then i went out and bought a little christmas tree and some teeny tiny ornaments.yeah, i know, i'm rushing it a bit.but i really really missed celebrating christmas, and i didn't even admit that to myself until just recently.my kids were absolutely thrilled!
!this year will be their first everything.i'm going to buy them all "my first christmas" ornaments.. but first we have halloween and a few birthdays to do.my sons already got their first invitations to a birthday party.
my kids want me to go trick-or-treating with them.maybe i'll dress up as cruella deville and take my dalmatian puppy,sidhe, with me.. my,my, i'm running on and on like a kid at christmas...and halloween...and ..... it's good to be free.i don't care what the org boogeymen try now.i've said my piece to them,now i'm done with them.i don't have to sneak around and worry about whose seeing me do this or that.i'm the one who has chosen to leave-and you bet your boots i will hold certain ones to their own rules about not speaking to me lol.in this case, what comes around, goes around.i'm just glad to be off the org carousel.i'm a little dizzy yet, but still standing.. hehe-i'm getting punchy.i'm going to go to bed and sleep in on a sunday morning!!!
Ah..yeah! Those fond memories of celebrating the holidays! I used to stay up late helping my mom. I miss those days. Good for you, Cicatrix!
Have fun!
