women don't sweat, they "glisten".
women don't fart, they "decompress".
When they decompress, it's like being in the same room as a ninja; you don't know what's happening until it's too late.
i think i'm going over the edge with my quest for knowledge.
lol.
but there was a research on this subject and finally science answers.

its amazing that they preach that the world is about to come to an end so soon but they won't spend a dime of their own money to get the message out.. i mean think about it, a couple years back a california preacher with less than 100k followers and about 100 millions dollars was able to get his message out that the world was coming to an end in 2012 and people heard about his message globally.
the org on the other hand sold over a billion dollars worth of real estate and hasn't spent a dime to get its message out.
all the halls were built with the local brothers contributions same can be said of circuit assembly and branch sites.

The difference between him and WT is, he actually believed the message he was preaching....

we converse, discuss, argue, laugh, agree, question, share our lives..... quite often, you kind of get to know what a person is like.
some people, we tend to gravitate to and others, we shy away from.. how do you think you come across to other people?
I almost always read AndDontCallMeShirley's posts!
Thanks, skeeter. 50% of the time I half-heartedly read 10% of your posts. LOL.
recently, my mother, who had stopped talking to me because i was 'apostate,' started speaking to me again.. (note that i successfully faded as opposed to ever being disfellowshipped due to dodging every elder question with "i'm not sure, i'm still searching and trying to find the answers.").
the reason why?
at the international convention this year, they receieved a new video called something or other.

I feel so much better having a firm number on it

yeah, but what percentage of the time do I come across that way?

I agree with 25% of Vidiot's 50% agreement with my 50%...10% of the time

I agree with 50% of Vidiot's self-assessment....
his talk was about reaching out for the real life.. he is in his mid seventies, then begins to rant on about staying loyal to the organization because many of us have lost loved ones in death and if we want to see them again we must remain in the organization.
he says he wants to see his father again, then the tears begin to flow right there on the stage.... then an elderly sister during the watchtower study admits to regetting leaving her daughter behind to seek a better life in the u.s, and she is crying.... these 2 meetings was just plain weird..
some dates are important to set, like weddings, retirement parties, and vacations, but not the date of the return of jesus.
jesus said that "no one knows.
" i've never really understood why something so direct and so simple could be so abused.. quoted from http://god-and-logic.blogspot.co.nz/2011/05/where-is-promise-of-his-coming.html.
Christianity has mis understood the hybole,metaphoric and symbolic language used in those days
.
which has always baffled me. When it comes to proclaiming vital information involving the alleged son of god and his alleged future activities, is hyperbole, metaphors and symbolism really the best way to get the message across clearly?
God's score on this issue: 0
Jesus' score on this issue: 0
Imagine if in relaying instructions to accomplish the first space shuttle mission, NASA scientists, instead of writing down clear, concise and scientific information, chose to tell cute little stories full of metaphors and symbolism, and just left it up to everyone involved to figure out what they really meant?
