  by Homerovah the Almighty in

  2. friends

  i just thought i'd make up a poll on people's viewpoints of who likes this site better or worse than the .

  older one ?.

  as for myself, i kind of liked the older one better, its just seems that the usability was better,.

  Any Vegans on the Board?

  by PrimateDave in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  my new year's resolution is to make the lifestyle change to the vegan-pure vegetarian diet: no animal derived foods.. it is a change i have considered before on different occasions.

  i didn't stick with the diet in the past due to lack of information, or perhaps the abundance of misinformation available on the optimum diet.

  i've never been grossly overweight, probably never over 170 lbs.

  It's easier today to follow a vegan diet than in the past.

  I have a couple of vegan friends, however they have to take many supplements to compensate. For example many people are iron deficiency. You can get iron from vegetables such as spinach, however the body does not absorb it in the same was as the body absorbs iron from a piece of meant.

  If you can follow that diet and are happy with it good for you but remember that veganism is not a magic bullet that will cure all the ills of the body.

  As of last month there was a study report form for the congregation book study. But with the bookstudy gone--I don't see the point--the form will no doubt be fased out

  You are correct! Study slips with householders' name and address are no longer collected. All they ask is that pubishers record the number of studies on the regular report slip. No questions asked!

  I believe that with all the privacy laws being enacted--watchtower may have gotten in hot water somewhere.

  This is good news for us fakers. I have a few imaginary bible studies.

  I remember Glen Howe from my teenage years. Those bushy white eyebrows of his reached the floor. Yikes!! He scared the crap out of me. But I felt so honored to be in his presence. He gave a talk recounting a case in Singapore that they had lost.

  By the way at that time he had a cute little thing by his side. I think it was his wife.

  From what I understand, they don't want any groups meeting at the khall, just homes.

  from my end there is still a service arrangement from the Khall.
