Horn jewelery – why on earth would somebody want to wear horns on their heads? What are they teaching young girls these days?
Jewelery Made from horn (or antler). Bloody git!
also posted on the yuku forum.. i thought it might be amusing to make a list of things i remember when i was a dub that we couldn't have or own or wear.
(some of these things vary by where you live, in other places dubs have them, it just depends).
obviously the list goes on forever, but feel free to add things.

i was given the link to a bit of information regarding on old poster/moderator of this forum.
i was not sure of the validity of the information so have been trying to find out if it is true.. earlier today craig's estranged wife, kate, (bikerchic) confirmed that craig died at his home on aug 10, 2011.. i am sure that many people here remember craig's time here and how he went out of his way to offer support to posters, even calling them, to give whatever help he could as they adjusted to their post-jw lives.. i know many people here will grieve his loss.. --------------.
ps i tried posting this earlier but the computer i was working with would not allow the posts.
this is my first time on the forum.
i read somewhere on this forum that there is "no such thing as a prophetic year".
that this concept was invented by the society.
yep
its a good question: how much of your religions actions do you have to disavow before you feel comfortable just walking away from the whole damn thing altogether?.
what aspects of your faith did you eschew before you finally stepped away from it for good?.

with the WT$ you can disavow all the old light you want as long as it doesn't become new the current new light again.

scientists on alert after hundreds of earthquakes daily rattle yellowstone national park.
over the course of the past two weeks, more than one-hundred mostly small earthquakes per day, on average, have shaken up a remote area of yellowstone national park in wyoming.
Hi NN,
For a repeat of the 'supermassive eruption' that happened 600,000 years ago the magma chamber would have to fill almost two to three times its current volume. Small quakes might indicate magma movement, stresses being relieved as the magma chamber below Yellowstone caldera is displaced laterally. This topic came up several times in our geology courses. The time to start worrying is a sustained quake swarm accompanied by large surface displacements caused by the magma chamber filling. Then even a small eruption could release the pressure on the magma chamber and trigger the event you are talking about.
Ruh-Row to say the least.

as mentioned by narkissos a couple months ago, doubting bro yesterday, and no doubt others.
is this where they are headed?
i say "evidently" it is.
Wow long topic title. Maybe the fix for posts being cut off got applied to the topic titles as well. ;-)
C'mon people channel a bit of FF.
Since his enthronement in 1914 and the 3.5 years it took for the examination to determine who could be called the FDS.
We can take the prophetic time, and time-and-a-half, apply it to the preaching work done by Noah to come up with a parallel even realized by the inspection.
1914 + (2.5 x 40) ==> 2014
Isn't it wonderful brothers that we can prove the pagan Mayan long count cycle that ends in 2012 is wrong, therefore it must be Satan's influence we see in the Mayan calendar.
Since the generation that overlapped with the eagle-eyed anointed that saw the enthronement that also overlapped the end of the gentile times.
A generation could be considered 40 years. By putting this value in the parallel equation we get the same result, 2014! There you have two lines of evidence that support the same conclusion. I would seem that things are being revealed at the proper time to encourage the preaching work.

i have a few discomforts with the wbts, but it's mostly my own attitude, not that i'm bitter towards the religion.. if you're anouther 'not bitter' soul, please give me a shout out.. dy .
Not bitter here, eyes opened, hurt but healing, making the best of what I have left.
Why should I let them (the WT$) live rent free in my mind, they have no power over me except for the power that I give them.
imagine the best case scenario.
the watchtower society implodes from within even making final printed admissions that it is voluntarily dismantling it's mission and legally dissolving the corporations.
oh happy day!
I would let them know I was there for them as they worked their way through the broken dreams and realization that they were not going
to see the people resurrected in paradise as they had planned.
