  Next you will see them spinning their enlarged billboards on street corners to attract attention, or start putting the emblem on the back of airplanes or on a blimp.

  Regional Convention

  by raven in

  2. experiences

  so how many are not going to the regional convention this year?

  it will be my first year not attending as part of my fade.. i remember going for all of my childhood into adult hood, participating in stage parts even.. however, last assembly i was already mentally checked out.

  i remember looking around and seeing all of people bobbing & nodding at the program talks that had been previously repeated time and time again.. almost seemed like hypnosis.. i also had a hard time with the fact that we're all supposed to be "friends" and everyone had always seemed to be so judgmental.. especially at conventions & assemblies.. things like who had the best outfit for the days, who looked the prettiest, who can snag the single ms brother.. who took the most spiritual food out of the program, how many times can you tally mark jehovah's name.

  Today's Text - Draw Close To God... (BUT HOW???)

  by Divergent in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  here's where i stand at the moment: i neither categorize myself as a theist, atheist, or agnostic.

  i'm a freethinker and do not have a specific belief at the moment, unless something comes along which is 100% conclusive & convincing.

  which brings us to tackling the elephant in the room, something that today's text has failed to do:.

  Who,s god created the big bang, an anti god that had been around for longer than he can remember, he got bored and said, "This is not good, I will create a big bang and out of it will come a confusing god, that is a lesser god than I. So he created "I Am who I Am" and told hime that he had been from time indefinite...Hey, this would make a good book....

  Had a weird love-bombing throwback today......

  my wife is having her first birthday party in july, and we're looking for a place to hold it.

  we found an episcopal church online that offered their fellowship hall for such occasions, and we went to check it out this morning.

  when we arrived they were having something in the hall and were setting up for it.

  as a baptist kid, I loved the free meal every wednesday at their lunchroom, it was delicious. There was a small meeting after but mostly for singing and requests from anyone. So informal and made you feel good.

  Excuses for God

  by xelder in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i am amazed at how people will go to extreme stretches of logic to explain or justify the supposed actions of their god (lower case g intentional, no upper case deserved).

  i have seen people with wonderful bullshit detectors in normal life, throw all of that ability away in order to retain their hope of a creator who cares for them.

  i am agnostic, certainly not atheistic, since i think atheism is not provable.

  don't leave out fish swallowing a man and keeping him alive for what he says was 3 days and nites. If he was in darkness in the fish, how did he know it was night time? Imagine if today someone claimed to have been swallowed by a fish, would you throw dirt on yourself and believe him, or call 911 and turn him in as completely off his rocker.

  here is my first letter i posted to the governing body.

  i also hope that brothers on the writing committee who may be lurking on this site (and have some clout) read my letter and bring in change to this very flawed policy around confession of sins.. enjoy.

  the governing body of jehovah’s witnesses.

  Writing this letter is similar to boarding a flight to Paris and asking the Pilot to drop you off in London, won't work, either go to Paris or get off the plane...
