We had oodles of brethren who loved to give 10 minute prayers...I used to look forward to them 'cuz I knew I wouldn't be bothered when I would fantasize about the hottie in front of me...God forbid they cut the prayer short while I wasn't paying attention otherwise I would have had to spend the next five minutes calming old Johnson down whilst milling about....

by JH inin every congregation there is always a brother who gives a marathon prayer.
in my congregation there was a brother whose prayers were so long that i decided to time his prayer with my watch.
it lasted about 3-4 minutes.

true dat martin...unfortuneately, the posters about which min speaks, while somewhat intelligent, are somewhat ignorant, and therefore will continue to piss and moan. I guess you can't please some people at all...

You guys are a bunch of wussies...I'm still goin' with champagne...(Ballatore Gran Spumante--sweet, cheap, and yet satisfying)...Why does a party need to end? You'll get enough sleep when your dead.
By the way Ruby, is it just Sour apple liqeur and vodka for that martini? That sounds DELISH!
You know some other good martinis? French Martini--Vodka, Chambord, Pineapple Juice
Dirty Martini-Vodka, olives stuffed with blue cheese----utterly orgasmic IMO

Does every verse of Isaiah apply to today?
by Far North inlast night at the book study they spent an entire hour covering 11 verses in the book of isaiah.
using pictures and scriptures from all over the bible every verse has a lesson for us today.
is this really true or is it just talented writing?

Isn't there a scripture in Isaiah that talks about "people stabbing themselves all over with many pains"? I've thought about that scripture over the past few months, (and thinking about a rendition of that verse tattooed on my back)...I wonder if that verse applies particularly to victims of the 'crotchtower'. People wasting their lives away, stabbing themselves, inflicting damage on their own souls, as it were. I think it applies today, more so than ever.

I expect to be disappointed, so when people do something noteworthy, I am pleasantly surprised

HELP!!! Hubby turning home into 'Book Study'
by Skeptically Yours inmy husband, who's a ministerial servant, was approached by an elder and asked if he'd offer our home to become a 'book study' meeting place.. i'm a bit of a loner, and need lots of peace, quiet, privacy, and solitude; plus to boot you all know i'm living this sort of double life, you know, just doing the very minimum to remain a witness.. this is awful!!!!!!!!!!
i can't deal with it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
take care!

Please call me an Apostate,
by LyinEyes inafter a year of doubting if i would ever be free from feeling ties to the wt, i am proud to be known as an apostate.
before i was so concerned with what some of the "friends" , would think of me, how they would think the worst of me for being an apostate.
now i hope they do think about me,,,,,,,, i hope they know i want nothing to do with most of them.

Here are some gems:
"What is peach schnapps?"
"Why would you want more than one beer?"
and in response to the pedophilia question--"You know, there is a certain percentage of the population that does these things, there are going to be pedophiles, people are going to beat their wives, do drugs, have sex, and the same percentage is going to exist among Jehovah's organization. It's up to you to decide which side you want to be on."
An elder after being approached by someone who had serious personal problems: "Hey, do you like to go fishing?"
"It's no skin off my back."-An elder asking me when to set up a judicial hearing.
"Do you have a problem with masturbation?".(numerous times by the same elder, not only to me, but to all young men)
There are more, when I think of them I'll let you guys know...
