  Numbers is their favorite Bible book.

  Also known as the book of Begat.

  Newton even played a bit with numbers but discouraged date setting.

  bit fed up tbh , the recent lies and slander levelled against me which has remained unanswered has left a bit of a bad taste in my mouth, plus probably spending a little bit too much time on web forums, see you all in a while.

  It's nice to see the WTS is lightening up...

  when i was attending, an elder would never give tacit approval to a jw's participation on a website like this.

  back then procedure was a harsh warning followed by disfellowshipping if the behavior were to continue.. when i was being raised a jw, no witness in good standing, let alone a pioneer, would ever consider allowing his/her children to attend a halloween or birthday party.

  seems as though the days of "mental regulating of youth" are in the rear view mirror.... how great is that?

  LOL yeah, pretty soon the WT will accept the trinity as well.

  Oh man I just got busted for laughing out loud here at work.

  In the name of the Governing Body, Writing Department, and Legal Department you have been forgiven. You will have to put in 15 hours field service and 2 book placements, now go my child and sin no more.

  "It's OK To Come Here, It's Not Unscriptural"

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  angel eyes said this.

  i agree that it's ok to come here and it's not unscriptural.. so, i'm confused.

  why would the watchtower organization, the faithful & discreet slave and its representatives, say witnesses shouldn't come onto sites like these?

  Marijuana---Is It That Bad?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i've never smoked tobacco or a joint in my life!

  i know some regular pot smokers and they're pretty cool people.

  they typically say pot is better than alcohol and that it should be completely legal.

  In reality the best solution would be if it never existed , but we have to deal with reality as it presents itself.

  From the www.steadyhealth.com website.

  Symptoms of quitting cold turkey from regular (daily) pot use can include insomnia, irritability, anxiety, physical tension, mood changes, loss of appetite and headaches.

  IMHO

  Compared to nicotine addiction these are orders of magnitude less. The brain does funny things when it experiences change.

  I couldn't get either Astro Programs Starry Night Pro or Red Shift to support the 606/7 date.

  What am I doing wrong?

  Contribution of Franz books on your decision to leave?

  by Damocles in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  the recent resurrected topic on franz' books got me curious.. how much did his writing contribute to your decision to leave?.

  for myself, it was another brick in the wall but not more important than any other.

  i was a little different than most in that i regularly read anti-witness stuff from the very beginning and never stopped.
