Went parasailing, hot air ballooning, sharkfishing and smoked a bag of weed in Mexico (long time ago). Bungie jumped in Ontario. Helicopter ride. Horseback riding in the mountains of Mexico. Got drunk and had a personal tour in Elizabeth Taylors home in Mexico. Got drunk and went catching crabs on the beach of Mexico, that was the only way you could catch the little critters for they zig zag when running after them and we zigged zagged too!

by sieborg inalthough we all know that there are many disadvantages of being brought up ( vomit sound) in the truth.

Sold a business and put the boat away when we started to pioneer. Now that we're out for good, put up a smaller building on the property and started up a business again and the boat is coming out. Built another building for our hobby as well. Just staying busy looking for more doors to open that will lead us to a balanced "normal" lifestyle. GUILTFREE!!!!!!!!!!

Why do Jw's have to pay for CO's expenses?
by nolongerconfused inthis is something that has always bothered me!.
why do rank and file have to pay for co's do's expenses, car, health insurance, meals, etc, etc...?.
didn't the apostle paul say that all christians have to be self sufficient and work?, not depending on anyone else and cause a burden?.

And yet in pioneer school the CO specifically said do not be a burden to the congregation and to pull your own load. Next sentence was but if someone wants to help you and pay for a tank of gas or give you money then that's ok too.

Ummm, just a question guys, some of the mennonite women actually have full beards. I wonder if you saw that in the congregations, what the elders would say to that especially if a man can't have a beard but a woman can. We know what the gossipy slanderous sisters would say about it. Maybe that's why the mennonite men keep their beards so their wives can.

An elder said how will Jehovah and Jesus know your hours if you don't hand in a time report. The last CO said right from the platform it doesn't matter if the governing body is wrong, you listen to them for it means your life. An elders wife said that very same thing over a two year period at least a dozen times in her comments. An elder conducting the watchtower said our watchtowers are filled with holy spirit A cobe announced our new ms as I don't want anyone to think there was any simony here but so and so is now an ms

It wouldn't surprise me with the toilet paper because the last time we met up with missionaries from Africa they said that before you go to use the washroom there's a brother and sister sitting handing out only two squares of toilet paper to each person. One for pee and one for poo. I laughed and said your joking and they said no. But their bethel home has no rations when it comes to their people. I guess you would have to drip dry on the one and use the two for the other hoping you don't get the hershy squirts.

Unbelievable Assertion!!!!!!!
by The Searcher inwe had our special assembly day this weekend.. what the district overseer stated in his talk totally stunned me, and made me feel sick to my stomach.
he said, "christ is directing us through the governing body, and we cannot get holy spirit except through them!".
i do not wish to reveal all my thoughts on his statement, but i pray to god that it acts as a wake-up call to at least some of the audience.. suffice to say that the gb is now the mediator to our mediator, and from now on, i will have to pray for holy spirit through the name of the gb!!.

Gopher, we were only in it for nine years, approx., and I remember Ken Little from bethel saying at an assembly that everytime we open up our bibles. we recieve holy spirit. That was about six or seven years ago. I wonder what he must be thinking. I also remember not long ago a DO Mcfadden stateing we must be obedient to the fds in order to recieve salvation. I wonder what he's thinking now.

Out our way the dutch love their horse meat. First time I saw horse steaks in the grocery store grossed me out. But then again, some butchers will sell you salami and not tell you it's really donkey meat. Cheaper to make. In China they eat dog. Take your pick

as it is carnival season in germany and the daughter of my girl-friend is in a dance group that performs at carnival sessions, we went today to see her appearance, not knowing that it took place in a home for mentally handicapped people.. the hall wasnt that big, maybe room for one hundred people, but it was crowded.

Borges, I commend you for going and being not only apart of your daughters life but the life of all those people. I grew up with two handicapped siblings. One died at eleven. He would take up to fifty-two seizures in a day. Twice I remember the ambulance taking him away in the middle of the night and then he lived out his last year at sick childrens hospital. He had insephilitus of the brain set in and later bled to death. I have another sister who is in a home where they really do care for these guys. She has cerebral palsy, rare eye disorder where eyes shake along with the whole body non stop and is mentally handicapped as well. She's in her mid fifty's now. She went into the home after mom took her own life with an overdose. Now my sister is ageing ontop of her disabilities and I just wonder trying to make sense of all of this. I just can't. I remember taking my sister to the hall before I stopped going and only one kind sister came over and held her hand as I went to the bathroom and cried. People just stood at a distance and stared and it made me feel awkward. When I saw how tough life can be for some and then I see all sorts of rubbish and backbiteing going on over petty crap in the congregations, I said to myself I don't have time for this. When you hear from the platform that half of us are here to torment the other half I asked myself what does my sister and others in the home think about. Probably when is their next meal, or next bath, You know, just wondering how to survive and when will a family member come to visit. My family members say they can't bring themselves to going in these places with these kind of freaks and yes those were the exact words they used. My handicapp sister will rock back and forth on her bed with a smile and can't wait for them to come and visit. It's been almost thirty years and still no visit from any of them. I admire people who can look for the good in others. I still want to look for the good in god and believe he'll do right even if it meant me dieing in order for her to live. That was nice you went. The other kids in the home will not forget you.
