how long will it be before witnesses start getting jewellery made up with jw.org as the pendant?.
can you imagine a nice gold neck chain, with a diamond jw.org hanging from it?.
or a small ring with the logo on it?.
And that eBay auction is Private so the "buyer's identity is protected." Wonder why the seller feels that's necessary?
AND you can purchase a pioneer service school pin and one with the soon-to-be-obscure watchtower symbol.
Trying to imagine the conversations those would provoke when worn at the kh....
1 corinthians 13:8 - love never fails.... .
i've always thought it meant that where love once existed it will always exist, always be felt no matter what happens.
the last few years have forced me to abandon that understanding in favor of new light.. now i'm thinking: love never fails to be the appropriate way to handle any given situation.
Leaving, couldn't agree with you more. Well said!
is this not blaspheme?.
there three broad views on (the purpose of) life:.
1) life arose out of nothing and will return to it.
More likely the wicked brotherly triumvirate...
as a jw were taught all about demons but i never had an incident.
my wife believes wholeheartedly says her family including her has had problems with them.
i have met people that even non religious people that say they have experienced a ghost or a spirit.
Jdubs believe in demons and wicked spirits BUT are not (openly) allowed to watch movies about them. This makes sense how? Does watching the movie make them more "real"?
it is commonly known by jehovah's witnesses, the marriage of pastor c.t.russell and his wife maria (moe-rye-uh) was an uneasy one.. the marriage itself was founded on a weird interpretation of "virginity" and "purity" as only an obsessive-compulsive.
puritan fanatic might find agreeable.
the two of them were not to share a bed (or physical relations.).
Thank you for sharing this!
some souls here may feel i was a little harsh.
if so, i am deeply sorry.
i was abused by a handful right from the start, presumably on the basis of the avatar picture (and 2001 vintage).. when visiting dubland, i often find that others start fights with me - for whatever reason, and i provide quite a supply of them - and when it doesn't quite go the way they expected, they cry persecution.
Thank you for such a delightful bedtime story! I always sleep better with a smile on.
hey everyone,.
thanks qcf and nugget for starting threads.
thanks cofty for wondering where i was.
Kate, happy news to hear the sunshine in your "voice". Enjoy your wonderful holiday! Look forward to your posts when you return. (((Kate)))
when i found out "ttat" i felt like muhammad ali when joe frazer knocked him down in their first fight in the 15th round.
the ref came over grab my gloves and looked me in the eyes and asked me "are you ok, can you continue" and then gave me the standing 8 count.
no it didn't knock me out but it staggered me.
Thanks for stepping into the fray and sharing your story. So well-written! It's lovely to know that you and Aunt Fancy are out together...let's hope your story inspires many other couples to do the same.
so at the convention, one of the talks was about how all people will speak a single language in the new system.
my ears perked up when i heard at the outset "now, we can't be dogmatic about this" because that immediately makes me think that they're backing away from a previously dogmatic stance.
he went on to say that everyone will be speaking hebrew in the new system because "evidently" (another word that gets my ears to perk up these days) that was what was spoken before the languages were confused at bable.
They are crazeballs!
there was a brother in my congregation who was an elder.
he got disfellowshipped about two years ago for looking at child porn and also trying to meet up with a thirteen year old boy online.
he was also arrested soon after this.
LisaRose, you are spot on with your comments. As for I wonder how long it will be before he is made an elder again the answer could be Soon™.
Time for those in the know inside the congs to start spilling the beans and protecting innocent children rather than their molesters.
