peacefulpete,
My collection is probably 40% Canadian coins. Although I'm an American, I think that Canadian coins are prettier and their designs have more thought and purpose behind them. 30% of my collection consists of U.S coins. The rest are mostly a conglomerate of Central American, British, Australian and South Pacific coins.
for the lucid lurkers: # 37. the article's examples really show, that among the 'name people' only 50 % of rank and file, and none of the leaders can be trusted all the time.
but, shut up and put up.. eli and hannah, eli's sons committed gross sins, raping/ seducing woman visitors to the temple, for years, yet naive worshippers are to trust their brothers, even with their children ?
inaction by wt approved?
Trust no one. You'll never be disappointed.

I've been a coin collector, or numismatist, since I was 7. I'm in my early 40's now. I remember someone telling me when I was younger that we would be throwing money out in the streets at Armageddon. I think that person is dead now...
there seems to be no end to the many jw's who sexually abused minors.
here is another story:.

Wow. I knew a son of one of these guys.
i was brought up as a born-in(tm) here in the uk.
it wasn't until i was 50 that the scales fell from my eyes, i woke up, got da'd from the cult and my wife was advised to leave me by the elders whom i had served with on the boe.
one of which i know wanted to schtupf her.
Punk,
I appreciate you and your perspective on this forum. I look forward to your posts. I was also raised as JW. My father is gone too, but for whatever reason, I don't hold any resentment to him or my mother for raising me as such. I just feel that they were duped into believing that this was the best way to live. Luckily for my siblings and I, we eventually saw through the BS and are now just trying to live our lives the best way we can.
i left the jw's shortly after i graduated high school.
but when i was still at home i'd get dragged into door to door every saturday morning without fail unless it was pissing rain.
i can remember always being anxious to know what territory my group was assigned.
Try getting your Social Studies teacher at the door...
i met freddie franz who was born in the 1880’s and many others from the 1880’s.
but as a very small child i remember someone very old aged 106 and that person was born around 1856 which means that he was around people from the 1700’s..
Overlapping generations!
pursue peace assembly 2022 shows a resurrected, newly shaven joseph, the son of jacob and rachel, having a nice dinner at a beautiful restaurant in the new system.
the survivors of armageddon all want to know if joseph can share stories about his life.. ''can you tell us what egypt was like?

Where's Joseph's beard?
folks: well, here in the united states, tonight, july 19th, is when the mlb all-star game will be played.
and, it will be played at dodger stadium, in los angeles, california.
for those of you who don't know, the all-star game is a game in which members of the american league teams compete with members of the national league teams.
I was never at Dodger Stadium, but I remember the days at Three Rivers Stadium in Pittsburgh in the late 1980's and early 1990's. I was just a pup back then.
