  ALL great answers.

  I would say, "One big thing I've learned is that if your adult children tell you anything, say 'That's nice' or 'That's too bad.'"

  Two hundred and fifty-three acres! And there's no property tax is there? But they have to pay "impact fees"?

  For past and present elders - Questions in a JC - why so intimate?

  by berrygerry in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  repeatedly, people who have been in a jc are shocked by both the invasiveness and irrelevant questions asked by elders.. yet, the shepherd book doesn't seem to indicate requiring this?.

  if it is something passed on from one generation of elders to the next, then why does it appear globally?.

  where and how does the questioning arise?.

  When they got done disfellowshipping my daughter she called me to say she was d'f and that she not only was thoroughly convinced the WT is a huge bogus scam, she was sure God is too. Seven years later she's a die hard athiest.

  I've heard it said before, that if anyone gets out of the WT with a shred of faith intact, they are lucky.

  Maybe 'cause it seems impossible that we're in the year 2014 - i have not yet adjusted to writing 20 instead of 19!

  Gods Kingdom? Who wants it?

  by Jeannette in

  2. family

  if gods kingdom is anything like the laws of leviticus and other books, it will be tough on women and children.

  a man gets into a fight with another man and his wife impulsively grabs the offenders testies.

  her hands are cut off.

  This topic remembered me something - when we were first studying a lot of emphasis was put on the paradise and how we would be young, never die, never be in want. Years go by and we begin to hear about the Princes in the Earth, how that means the elders, and that naturally they would be in charge!

  HUH? What happened to that stuff about everybody sitting under their own fig tree?!
