over the last few months, changes have occured on this board.
many that complained have either left or post limitedly.
constant swearing is no longer accepted.

I definitely enjoy this board. I am a frequent visitor to this site since over a year. And although I would lurk and read some thoughts, I never really decided to join. But I did notice a different flavor recently, so I joined up last month. Now I enjoy this board the most!

ok everyone...what is everyones opinion on terrorism...i myself, feel that something else is going to happen, possibly on 9/11/02....what is everyone else's thoughts....not necessarily the same as mine...but does anyone think another attack will come?
if so what do you think, and when?
just some thoughts for the mind.....q
Nothing will definitely happen. Any person remotely resembling of Middle-East extraction will get their head shot off if they behave the slightest in a suspicious way this coming week.
if the new world hope no longer existed, would everyone leave?
would some stay?
what do you think the reaction of the dubs would be if the new light was no armaggedon and no "new system"?
I'm already out. This revelation would already justify it.
marilyn (from the why-1914 helpline) made it through her quadruple bypass surgery and is doing well.

All the best to you and recover quickly!
elders are supposed to be loving, caring shepherds.
when a problem arises, elders are supposed to be there.
visiting in homes was something the organization always stressed.
I got one last winter because I stopped going in field service last summer. They came to encourage me, since my wife told them I was starting to have doubts. Little did they know I read both books from R. Franz, J. Penton and C. Jonsonn and W. Schnell. Not to mention I was a regular at this site as well as Freeminds, Xjw, Beacon, Shaun's etc. They were sitting at a table will a certifiable Apostate and they didn't even know it. But I didn't spill any beans, I just gave the usual excuse (working hard, tired, 3 kids, house, cut the grass etc.). I guess I'm not interested at this time to get df''d or to da myself. Now they called yesterday, they want to do another Sheparding call! Geeze won't they leave me alone!
