can anyone please give me some basic tips on how to post pictures on here ????.
another thing thats driving me mad is not being able to figure out how to quote in a box???.
loz x.
In your 'Post a reply ...' box below, click on the spot where you want the quote to be placed and then drop down the Drop Down menu box that normally says <Styles> to show <Quote>. Click this and a quote box will be inserted into which you can right click > paste the text you previously copied to the clipboard.
Thanks! I was always wondering how.
so one of the elders called asking for my time.
i lied, somewhat.
yes i did talk to people about the "truth" but not in favourable terms.. has anyone simply stated, "i have not been in service this month"?
gutted,
When the elders call you for your field service report, have him read Matthew 6:3,4 and say that you are using your Bible trained conscience in following the words of Jesus Christ in NOT turning in any report.

its hard to beleave that no one seems to have a full convention available.
usually there all over the place.
if anyone knows where to look please let me know.
Still within the first month of the convention season. I think that it will last until late August/early September. They'll be available soon as time goes on.

born in, what difference does it make?.
i was thinking about this one a lot over the last few weeks.
what difference does it make whether you were born into a cult or were brought in as a teen or adult?
Excellent post!

would this email encourage you back to the meetings?.
dear *****:.
we are so very discouraged that you did not attend the d.c.. there are no two sides of this issue today.
Sure, they can dictate what constitutes friendship with them. But they cannot judge nor stipulate whether you have a relationship with the "Heavenly Father".
Nope! No "wuv" there!

the witnesses are worse than the pharisees ever were!.
if you don't turn in a time slip and record your "ministerial" activities, you are no good.. if you wanted to smoke, you would be kicked out, even though the bible says nothing about smoking (and j.f.
rutherford, the society's president regularly smoked).. you cannot go to a "quick build" project and give of your free services if you are wearing a tee shirt with a logo on it!.
Instead of saying, "Brother James", "Sister Janet", "Brother Victor" or "Sister Wendy", the mandatory use of family names when calling upon the members of the audience from the platform.

circuit overseer visit(cov) supposed to happen once every 6 months may actually be as frequent as once every 3months.
In some parts of Japan, the COV occurs three times a year. But as Broken Promises mentioned, it could be that there aren't many congregations within certain circuits. Afterall, if you looks at the yearbook statistics, Japan has been decreasing in the total amount of congregations over the last five years or so.

i saw this video on youtube and didnt know if i should laugh or crawl into the fetal position.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=abm0t-qhllc&feature=related.

we had several "talent" shows over the years in my original congregation - it was the only annual gathering more nauseating that the meetings.. my friend and i would always bring our walkmans and blare heavy metal in the back - hoping to block out the embarassing crap on the stage.you always had a few older ones get up on stage and slaughter a kingdumb song.
I initiated them and used to organize them. It then became an annual congregation tradition.

i hate to be a sports critic but nevertheless, i find this kind of wrestling as going far on the top.
i have great respect for other country's culture but the question is: how far should we tolerant extremist sport that glorify pain and suffering as a price of achievement?
what is your reactions?
For the Japanese JW, sumo is bad because it is linked with the Shinto religion and the rituals/priests that pervades almost every aspect of it.

P.S. As for me personally, I really don't care for sumo. A few minutes may entertain me and I would be satisfied with that.
