I may be going to the Smoky Mts saturday also. They are only 40 miles away from me though. It depends on whether my brother comes down this weekend or not.

I travel for pleasure, I love taking road trips. The high gas prices have really put a crimp in my lifestyle.

Why is the murder rate going down?
by easyreader1970 inmany people flee to the wbts because of all of the negativity in the world, perceived or real.
"the world is going to hell in a handbasket" is the general belief of most witnesses, especially those who are of middle to low income and have to deal with the unpleasantness of things a little bit more than the well-to-do witnesses who may have their paradise right now.
anyway, something spurred me to check statistics.

probably because we are once again a heavily armed society like we were in the 1960's before all of the gun control legislation.

I too love September, there are so many festivals and events this month, plus around here you usually don't have the stifling heat of summer, and the leaves stay mostly green all month.
October is another thing though, because after the leaves peak midway, then it all goes downhill after that. -

Today is my grandma's birthday. I plan on calling her up and wishing her a happy birthday, but I feel kind of weird about it.
You see my grandma is a JW (in name only) she doesn't attend meetings, only the memorial and only when she is with her brother in Kentucky. Yet she is strongly pro JW, anti blood, anti-christendom, etc etc.
On the other hand she is patriotic to an extent and supports the VFW and American Legion and beieve it or not salutes the flag when watching a parade.
she has sent me several birthday cards over the years, but I don't ever recall her actually saying "happy birthday" to me.
I still feel odd wishing her a happy birthday, because I never know how she will react. When I have done it before, I kind of downplayed it, and she in turn kinda downplayed it too.
I guess she is what you call a cafeteria witness, picking what she likes and discarding what she doesn't.
Anybody experiences anything like this? In the JW world I never knew anyone like her, especially to the extent she is.
I will wish her a happy birthday, but it always feels odd all the way around. -

So basically they were warning about something that hasn't been a threat in years?

When I go to watchtower.com it automatically redirects me to watchtower.org so what is the society worried about?

What If: The UN actually DOES "turn on" and destroy religion?
by inkling inso it stuck me the other day that modern jw prophecy is notnearly as bizarrely cocky as such past gems like the "house ofprinces" (1925?
) or even the 1975 fiasco.
i would seem thatthey have learned the value of the vague.

The JW's would probably be the last to be banned by the UN, they would probably have their grubby paws in the plan anyway. Traditional Christianity along with Islam would probably be the first to get the boot.. This is of course only my speculation.
