Keep "practicing" Sparks. You are doing a good job following the direction of mother. Mother says, "don't get on apostate websites!" and here you are....I guess being a practicing witness is a lost like practicing medicine, come to think of it, there is a really good scripture that applies here, "Physician heal thyself."

PART TWO of AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE BY A PRACTICING JEHOVAH'S WITNESS
by Sparks inwhile you are sitting there reading this, there are literally hundreds of thousands of young males and females all over the world [ mostly in america / canada and england] sitting in their grotty little smelly bedrooms or flats, designing computer viruses that they will up-load onto web-sites to cause anonymous innocent peoples computers to malfunction.
these creeps spend literally weeks,months or even years hoping to make a computer viruses that will get into peoples computer bios to completely destroy their computers.
they never see the peoples anger, frustration and distress.... the damage can cost each person about 1,000 [ $1,660.74 ] or more to replace a basic new laptop or tower.

Reading the Bible Alone "Will Lead you to Apostate Thinkings!" Stay a Watchtowerite!
by BucketShopBill in"from time to time, there have arisen from among the ranks of jehovah's people those, who, like the original satan, have adopted an independent, faultfinding attitude...they say that it is sufficient to read the bible exclusively, either alone or in small groups at home.
but, strangely, through such 'bible reading,' they have reverted right back to the apostate doctrines that commentaries by christendom's clergy were teaching 100 years ago.

Oh , wait, according to the All Scripture is Inspired book, the early CHURCH was resposible for its canonization and protection. If, then, the early CHURCH was apostate, as the ORG states, then the Bible must be an apostate book. So , logically, when one reads the Bible, one becomes an apostate!
Sounds alot like the absurdity of the Monty Python skit....
"We have a witch! We have a witch! May we burn her?"
"How do you know she is a witch?"
"She looks like one."
You know the rest of the schtick.

The Bible, unfortunately, is FULL of apostate ideas. One can not be too careful.

Why was such a GREAT, GREAT, GREAT thing as Internet not foretold in the Bible?
by Pinku injws claim that even such a small thing as proclaiming 1986 as the international year for peace was foretold in the bible.
this raises the question: why was such a great thing as internet (the influence of which could not even be compared with anything in the history at all) not foretold in the bible?
with internet and tv the world has become literally a global village!.

Ah, good question. It was, however, foretold by Nostradamus....
"After the great trouble, a net will be cast that will encompass the whole of the earth and many will be lost. Clouds will form in the heavens and secrets will be cast upwards, stolen from the hiding places will the words kept therein fall. Peoples will cry aloud, "Yahoo!" (from the Book of Senselessness, Nostradamus)

Rebranding of the Watchtower to JW.org - how long in the works?
by truthseeker inthe transformation from watchtower to jw.org is nothing short of remarkable.. animated cartoons (caleb and sophia), the new jw.org slogan, international convention websites (featuring previously unthinkable entertainment in the kingdom hall) - how long do you think this has been in the works for?.
i feel very uneasy about what is happening - it's so sudden, seems like it all happened within the space of a year.. i sense some intelligence about all this, as if it has been some carefully orchestated performance - to dazzle and distract.. the kingdom ministry of 1999 was totally against the internet and now they seem to embrace it along with tablets and smartphones.. why the sudden change?
do you think it is anything to do with social media?.

Been in the works for quite a while, at least since Jaracz got sick...he was really the final piece of the old guard. Still held in awe like one of the original apostles....with him gone technology was able to run amuck.....

They are tossed. Except if the wine is good, then someone might take it home or drink it in the back. The bread isn't even fit for cheese.
