Some saw the picture of the pirate in the WT and laughed...some may have even thought it was inappropriate (all that raping and pillaging!). But consider, a pirate is the perfect example of a goal for our young ones to motivate them to look to the paradise and potential studies. Why? Pirates don't require higher education...no need for our children to idolize astronauts or politicians. In fact, there are more similarities, pirates were some of the first homeschooled students! A few differences in the curriculum, of course, but very much what our kids need now. "Swabbing the decks" practice for a pirate is excellent for all our future janitors and window cleaners. Of course, our kids need to study cursive rather than cursing, but it's good to know both for those difficult days post 2:pm in service. Plus, it's so hard for us to remember the difference between port and starboard, but a good homeschooled pirate can easily show us port to Starbucks! And when we get too tired to think of something new to say, our trusty parrot can parrot back our presentation to us...

Chowchilla Women's Correctional Facility has plenty of inmates with Trinitarian backgrounds, how many Catholics, Fundamentalists and Babylonian religious backgrounds would you guess the killers were exposed to? Saying your more a a Christian because of your belief in a impossibliy undefinable Trinity make's absolutely no sense to any thinking person. Athanasia was no more a Trinitarian than Arius was, I make more sacrifices and spend more time sharing the Bible message than you, that make's me more godly!
I worked in the ministry in this facility, saying's your godly or Christian is not true, "a good person can't produce bad works!"

One small tid bit of advice, the majority of people who claim to have degrees online don't, especially when they claim to have a Master's Degree. Cagefighter don't be so naive, it's a gimmick to attribute authority to their thread and seek out the gullible.
The therapist is still working on this thesis and needs another extension (Eighteen Extensions the head of the faculty has given him or her), most Master's will not brag about their college and those who brag usually might have a A.A or A.S at the most. I did my good deed and now I am done with this person, think hard please, it's hard to get someone with a M or phd to say so, their afraid of people wanting their advice. back to normal, I need to take some medication, it's wearing off now.

maybe we should start watching what's going on in Cyprus
by Hortensia ingovernment considered a tax on savings.
banks have been shut, atms running out of cash, banks won't open again until tuesday, maybe.
lots of governments around the world are in financial difficulties, including the u.s. and the u.s. government isn't facing facts and will continue spending and spending until absolutely forced to deal with the deficit.. .

The Watchtower has taught us to keep a nice supply of food and water and medicine, stop worrying about Cyprus and do something about it by getting some dried food, fuel and a "sun stove and sunoven" the Organization is helping us get read for "Doomsday" by giving the best wisdom.
Cyprus is used by good rich people to hide their income, protecting the rich are the key to safeguarding everyone's future.

Is this true? Do the elders really do it like this?
by Julia Orwell ini put this week's wt paragraph about disfellowshipping on my fb page and said how poor robert's family didn't even check to see whether he was dead or alive in 16 years and a friend of mine of the 'conscious class' commented about how unchristian she felt disfellowshipping to this degree is, and i agreed.. another friend, and uber-jw who has a host of illnesses and yet pioneers, who everytime she and her husband go to another congregation, if he's not appointed within three years they move to another and try for an appointment there - he used to be an elder and no one is willing to promote him again- replied to my thread.
now keep in mind she has a dfd son and she doesn't even know whether he is dead or alive, because she follows the wt to the tee.
she replied, among other things,with this:.

I SWEAR TO JEHOVAH, I HAVE NOT TALKED TO MY MOTHER IN SIX YEARS AND SHE IS NOT DISFELLOWSHIPED. WHEN MY DAD HAD A HEART ATTACK TWO YEARS AGO, I WATCHED THE AMBULANCE LOAD UP MY DAD AND DID NOT EVEN WAVE "GOOD BYE!"
These are the type of human beings we are, we come to your door but don't tell you how we will teach you to hate your fleshly family and turn a good heart into a dark one filled with hate.

Perfect example of a worldy education taking up someone's valuable time for decades, poor person spent the last twenty five years in college and has not finished his degree. You need to help yourself, your not getting any younger and by the time you get your degree, we could be in the New Order. I hope he has liability insurance if he is going to say he has a M.A. and give out advice, never know when you might help the wrong person and get sued.

Suspected Jehovah's Witnesses attacked by pitbull in the preaching work
by cedars inhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mtrdafq0xac.
i guess this sort of thing is bound to happen, even though the society implies that angels are out there protecting jehovah's witnesses from harm.. interestingly, it wasn't an angel who came to the rescue, but a "worldly" bystander with his gun.. .

I wish we all could get permits for carry-conceal in case the angels (Giant men who stood behind the sister who talked to the serial killers) are busy helping other witnesses in more trying situations (finding a coffeeshop, breathing on empty cars running on fumes, getting me out of "Jury Duty" and other horrible situations American Witnesses encounter).

The complaints about our dear brother Rutherford are not fair, there are more Jehovah's Witnesses with drinking problems Today, than there were in this Apostle time (Now ruling in Heaven as the lead 144,000 for all his hard work and sacrifice) and most of them don't preach a tenth as much as brother Rutherford the Special Pioneer-Traveling Missionary of God.

The Watchtower has repeatedly said "I want self-sacrificing people to engage in the door-to-door work." During the Summer District Assembly a brother on the program stated what the Organization feels, he said something like "A weak witness is able to drag down two to three other witnesses, even strong members of the Kingdom Hall." Do you understand why the weak are a detriment to all the good members of the Kingdom Hall? A weak person is able to drag his fellow brothers and sisters down, how many people do you know who drowned by trying to save someone drowning? They cling to you so hard, as they panick they drag you down to the bottom of the river, lake or ocean.
The weak are alway's needing phone calls or they will complain "nobody is showing love to us!" and these same people are the last to participate during Kingdom Hall "clean ups" unless the sisters have cooked up a meal, than they will show up ten minutes before the meals are served, take extra food (we all have seen them load up three or four plates, only to lie to your face saying "I thought sister so-and-so could use this food(sister so-and-so moved out of the Kingdom Hall months ago and "brother and sister weak" would have known that if they attended Meetings more than once every two months.
It's been my life experience, our physical appearance and conduct tell volumes about our spiritual nature. Friends who make the meetings, attend field service regularly and donate time are always the most faithful, strong and blessed financially by Jehovah. God helps those who help themselves!

Yes, I am a real Jehovah Witness who goes out in field service, attend as many meetings as I can to build up my halo. My feelings I am sharing with you are felt by other righteous Witnesses who speak this in private (Like Mitt Romney did with his wholesome group, would you have believed Mitt felt exactly the way the leaked video showed him to be. I could be a amalgamation of all the perfect Jehovah's Witnesses according to the Watchtower. I might be a lone woman who is tired of being used by all the losers, our coitre try's to disuade from attending our Kingdom Hall.) but are too fake to act what their heart is made up of. The darker and more righteous your heart is, the easier it is to forget your roots and trample on all who might stand in your path to reach the prize of (C.O.) glory.
It's a fact that there are many of you, who have walked in to a Hall only to feel you were not welcome. Was this by accident or were the elderettes like me able to quickly assess your value and what contributions you could make to help us grow? Drive into a Kingdom Hall with a Jalopy, dress down or show up with someone with long hair and a beard and see how long it takes for you to be greeted. We value people's ability to beat the National Average, be gainfully employed while keeping a low profile (no late night phone calls for help or dealing with your demons of depression) emotionally because we are burned out. We don't have the emotional, financial or time resources needy people are looking for (six hours talking with someone who is about to kill themself.) because we are trying to stay in front of the pack with the Race For Life.
