Not Blind - That 4.7% statistic (yes, at the bottom of the list) is from 1993. I wonder if it has improved since the "new light" on college has become available. Does anyone know?

I have many homeschool moments as well Valis, though I was fortunate enough to have parents who shuttled me off to public school. Those in my old congregation who were homeschooled were not only had an incredibly limited knowledge base (I remember one girl didn't know what World War II was) but they were emotionally stunted - 17 year olds having temper tantrums like they were 5! It was disgusting and sad all at the same time.

Does anyone here workout on a regular basis?
by Leander ini just wanted to get a little dialog going with some of the members here who workout.
i know reborn works out quite a bit and i've been doing fairly well as of recently in getting back into a regular exercise regimine.
so far i've worked out everyday for the past 17 days, i usually try to do weight training at least 3-4 times a week and i usually do some cardio everyday.

I work out like a fiend. Weights, biking, running, yoga, pilates, etc... You name it! If I hurt the next day from it - it's a winner! My goal is to live to be 100 and have enough muscletone (as a 5'1" woman) to scare the hell out of people without being a musclebound freak. I'm about 5 lbs away from being happy with my appearance, though I'm sure that's just me being a perfectionist.

by minimus in.
the may 15, 1962 wt.
states:"therefore no dedicated christian minister can remain in good standing in the new world society of jehovah's witnesses and at the same time be a member of a nudist colony or frequent nudist camps" so if you had to make a choice,what would you do?.

Apostasy Unforgivable?
by professor indo witnesses teach that apostasy is an unforgivable sin?.
i was taught this by my parents.
but, i am wondering if this is a jw doctine.
-
zenpunk
I just read a book comparing Catholicism to Protestantism. Basically, the idea of Unforgivable Apostasy is a Protestant one. The Catholics believe that as long as you seek forgiveness at some point before you die, you're ok. There is no sin during a lifetime that can forever alienate you.

The baby bunnies that are munching in my yard every morning. Though I'm sure if I ever was able to pick one up - it'd scratch and kick me from head to toe.

IS it just me or....?
by dustrabbit inis it just me or..... 1. do the vast majority of the "good" females in the jw publications look like they stepped out of the martha stewart-wannabe/betty crocker/beaver's mom mold?
and the bad "girls" look like some cheesy bad girl from a chessy 80s movie?.
2. did i see a lack of interracial couples/families in the jw pubs?
-
zenpunk
Wow - you're right! I've never seen interracial couples in the JW literature and I always used to laugh at how funny the "bad" girls looked. After all, if the bad girls were sharp dressers, we might want to be like them!
Many years ago I read a book about a woman who "escaped" from the Mormons. I was still a JW at the time and I remember being shocked at how my life seemed to be the same as hers.
