by AFRIKANMAN instumbled upon bob the king's site and read some of his literary offerings.. .
he is strongly of the opinion that the tony toids remarks re: the tite pants is straight down the line:"" i have to say i agree with brother morris.
i dont think there is any question that gays dominate the fashion world, as well as the entertainment media.

Robert (E-Watchman) is infatuated with himself and his role as a prophet.
He was important in the initial stages of my awakening, but soon I realized that he, despite his obvious intelligence, is another deluded self-styled prophet who loves gathering a following after his crackpot bible theories about the Watchtower and "Jehovah's people".

No longer to use "house to house record" slips and "please follow up slips"!
by stuckinarut2 ina letter has just been read out indicating that effective immediately, witnesses are no longer to use the s-8 slip known as the "house to house" record slip, as well as the s-43 "please follow up" slip (usually used for foreign language people).. the letter stated that this is because of the changes in privacy laws etc that are becoming common in the world today.. i will try and get a copy of the full letter and post it asap.. .

In my country, those printed slips were discontinued more than 10 years ago, due to changes in privacy laws. Publishers should make their own brief non-printed notes on a regular plain sheet of paper or notebook.

What have you learned, Terry, from TEN YEARS on this discussion board?
by Terry in1. it's not all about me.. each of us has to grow up our own way at our own pace.
when we regain our balance we can be of help to other people.
life doesn't.

Great points, Terry. Thank you.
#9 strikes a chord in me. As JW's we have engrained within us that the ultimate good we can do to others is to bring them the 'good news of God's kingdom', and if we devote ouselves entirely to that work we are excused - actually we are commanded - from getting actively engaged paticipating in bringing relief to other people's many sufferings. That's utter BS, but damages us as human beings, because, as you said, makes us feel compassion for others but mentally block us from actually DO something practical to help them.

simply put, ask any witness these questions:.
who is represented by the 'two witnesses' in revelation chapter 7?

I remember recently that the people in charge of "AnointedJW.org" suggested that there were GB member(s) that were awaking for the error of the "two hopes" doctrine.

why didnt God just do this?
by sowhatnow infor one thing, i cant get past genesis, but no matter.. when god told adam and eve if you eat from the tree youll die.
so why did he not simple let them die and not allow the offspring to?.
you see, if i was a god, and i told two people that, id let them die , .

Apognophos, naturally, you're right. We're seeing things from the viewpoint of Paul. Still, that reflects the jewish concept that sin was introduced to mankind by the original sin of Adam and Eve and that's who evil came into the world.

just wanted to introduce myself
by TheMark ini've been a lurker for quite some time and enjoy the forum.
i've reached a point in life where i don't argue ideologies anymore so i don't have much to say.
i've been out for decades and believe i've been mostly de-cultabilized (if that's even a word).. my family is still in and i haven't had contact with them in years.

The above reasoning is what led me to see the absurdity of the ransom doctrine, also the flaws of the 'original sin' tale, and the purpoted transmission mechanism of sin. It's just men trying to make sense of evil And misery in this world, nothing else.
